Hi Gang;
I am working with a friend to install a Rabbitt RL1290 using Lasercut 5.3 on a Leetro 6535 controller laser in a production environment. I am being told that the controller requires a dongle to interface the computer with the laser. We will need to trigger the laser program from an external PLC controller. We can load it with the dongle if necessary, but need to start the program from the PLC controller. Is the dongle really needed to do this? Can the system work without the dongle?
I noticed on the schematic for the 6535 that there is a input option for a "Pedal Switch". Is this an external trigger - a momentary switch which drops the input to ground and starts the program?
Thanks for any help
Best Regards,
George
