Hi:

I have a question to ask you，How to connect laser to ramps1.4？

I cant access to relevant information from net. I think the laser head is to obtain the signals from the extruder。

If you can I hope you draw a wiring diagram for me .or just laser to ramps 1.4.

My email : yunlo...@kocel.com

Best regards

There is an image of our laser system in the laser documentation on this page: http://www.muve3d.net/press/supportsources/muve-1-documentation/

We also have an image of the new wire required and the setup to RAMPS using the new beta firmware on this page: http://www.muve3d.net/press/2014/04/18/beta-firmware-is-live/

The positive and negative power leads go to D9 on the RAMPS and the TTL switching lead goes to servo pin 6/D6.

No this is incorrect.

The laser driver - and +12V go to D9, not the RAMPS power input. You have this labeled fan on your image.

The laser ground wire does not go to the D6, it should go to R9 on the laser driver board. This is covered in the same instructions that you took the image from.

Then you solder a wire to MODE on the laser driver and connect it to D6 as described in the post we linked in the last reply.
