Hello. Can someone help me? I bought a Longer ray5 20w laser head with original cables and I would like to connect it to the Makerbase MKS DLC32 v2.1 control board. I have almost figured out the X and Y axes but the laser cuts. The previous head was a 3-pin RAY5 10w and now it has 5 pins. Please help
Just check the data sheet of the new head what the pinout is. Nobody else can tell you.
If it doesn’t contain other sensors, the most common case is that the VCC and GND pins are doubled to account for the additional amount of power that is going through.
I found this:
