Communication sequence for the power data output
The laser welding machine transmits the laser power or laser energy automatically with the following timing:
• When the serial data output of laser power [W] is allowed, the response data is transmitted during the lasing operation at
the setting intervals (10 ms or 100 ms).
• When the serial data output of laser energy [mJ] is allowed, the response data is transmitted at the end of the lasing
operation.
External device
*1 : Transmitted when the serial data output of laser power [W] is allowed at the power output mode setting.
*2 : Transmitted when the serial data output of laser energy [mJ] is allowed at the power output mode setting.
