ULS-25E Controller Upgrade

Is there a history of upgrading the Universal Laser Systems ULS-25E laser from the old control electronics to the DPS Laser controller (ELSR-4XDSP14)? I just recently purchased a used ULS-25E system and would like to upgrade the control electronics. Suggestions on how it might be done? ;)

Yep. Did some google searchin' and that was one of the first links I found. Issue is that I will be using the RF CO2 laser after reprocessing and was looking for a way to hook up the SYNRAD laser to the DSP controller as I know this controller has outputs for the laser.

Or am I just psyching myself out? :-)

The information you’re looking for is in the “specification” PDF; it’s explained in the section “4.7 Laser Power Supply Interface”.

The link is in the manuals section of the forum.

Once you’ve extracted the .zip file and navigated to the folder labeled “manual”, the file you’re looking for is labeled “Specification of MC-BOARD”.

I assume your Synrad Laser is an RF laser (I know mine are). Connecting RF Lasers is explained in the PDF labeled “Specification of MC-BOARD”.
