LSM880 Argon laser initialization

[Mgr. Ondřej Šebesta]

Dear LSM880 users.

We encounter a weird new behavior of argon laser initialization in ZEN. There used to be a "waiting for Ignition" status, and a subsequent countdown for laser power stabilization, followed by the status "Ready" when starting the laser. Now this is completely "gone", despite the laser start, and works properly. Only annoying warning pops up saying "Laser 488 is not on". The laser works and can be used, and you can safely ignore this pop-up message. The possibility to switch laser to a maximum power from the optimal power is also disabled. We are examining the problem. 

I just want you to be informed.

Best regards,

Ondrej.
