Ruida IO setup help

The out1 and out2 are done in firmware as far as I know. They are generally used for the light tree that shows job status… The book says don’t use them, but people do… peruse this link…


I assume it’s wired to the P input of the lps?

If that is so, then I’d suggest you connect it properly via the Ruida. You want the Ruida to determine if there is an error and halt. The Ruida will not allow it to lase if there is an error condition, such as water or door open.

Your setup, if I’m correct about the wp, will only stop the lps from lasing the tube. The Ruida will have no clue that there is a fault in the coolant and continue to execute the layer. This usually results in a lost job/material.

The advantage of letting the controller control the machine is that a failure of the coolant will be seen by the Ruida and it will completely halt the job, no laser, no motor movement… when you fix the issue, the Ruida will allow you to continue where you left off…

Do it the right way and wire your water protect into the Ruida and let it handle this…

Edit → Machine Settings

Good luck
