The output power of the above pins should be used only for
the common-anode and common-cathode of control signals,
and should not be used as the power supply for motor
Prohibited drives. Failure to observe this instruction could result in
damage of the controller
JP1:
Note: JP1 is related with X3, X4 and X5. If 24V voltage is required for input signal ports
X3, X4 and X5, the jumper should be connected to Pin1 and Pin2. If 5V voltage is required,
the jumper should be connected to Pin2 and Pin3. If the jumper is removed, Pin5 of X3, X4
and X5 not connected.
JP2:
Note: JP2 is related with Y2. For analog-control laser power, remove the jumper,connect
laser power to Pin2. For PWM-control laser power, connect the power to Pin3.
JP3:
Note: JP3 is related with Y1. If output Y1 to drive a 24V relay, the jumper should be
connected to Pin1 and Pin2. To drive a 5V relay, the jumper should be connected to Pin2
and Pin3. If the jumper is removed, Pin6 of Y1 not connected.
JP4:
Note: JP4 is related with X2. If 24V is required for the general input X2, the jumper
should be connected to Pin1 and Pin2. If 5V voltage is required, the jumper should be
connected to Pin2 and Pin3. If the jumper is removed, Pin5 of X2 not connected.
Warning
Pin 3 and Pin4 of Y3, Y4, and Y5 is output 5V power of

Download Document
Chapter 7 Download Document

For users convenience, the firmware update file, processing file and configuration file
can be downloaded conveniently using USB flash disk.
7.1 Update Firmware

1)
Copy the updated firmware data (FM.FMW and 05LM201.HDW) to the root directory of
USB flash disk (FAT16 format. Recommendation: do not save other files to the flash
disk);
2)
Electricify MPC6515, the indicate light D1 on MPC6515/CPU will flash twice swiftly;
3)
Plug USB flash disk into MPC6515 within 5 seconds after D1flashed twice;
4)
If D1 keeps shining for 2-5 seconds (depending on the size of firmware update file), the
firmware is being updated; If theres a indicate light in USB flash disk, user can tell if the
data is being read through the indicate light;
5)
D1 flashed swiftly, firmware is updated successfully; If theres a indicate light in USB

flash disk, user can tell if the update is finished through the indicate light;
6)
After removing the USB flash disk, DSP firmware program will be started.
If MPC6515 fails to work, its probably that somethings wrong during the update process.
Please repeat the above update steps or contact your supplier.
User should update the firmware only when new version

has been released.
Notice
To observe the updating process, its recommended to use a
USB flash disk with indicate light.
Notice
25
7.2 Download Data

1)
Copy the files (*mol) created by engraving&cutting control software to the root directory
of USB flash disk (FAT16 format).
Electrify the MPC6515

Plug the USB flash disk into the MPC6515;
If the indicate light D1 on the MPC6515/CPU keeps shining for seconds or minutes (depend
on the file size), the controller is downloading processing file.
If D1 flashes swiftly, download completes;
Remove the USB flash disk, select and run the processing file through the control panel.
Notice
Notice
Downloaded configuration file can only be effective after

having been selected and run. Downloaded processing file
can be started directly.
If you use MPC6515 for the first time, please create the
configuration file according to the machines parameters,
and then download and run the file. Same operation should
be followed each time the parameters changes.
To observe the updating process, its recommended to use a
USB flash disk with indicate light. The user can also
connect an external indicate signal (Refer to Hardware
Interface).

Error Code
Chapter 8 Error Code

8.1 Indicator Light Description
Working status of MPC6515 can be shown through the 8 LED indicator lights on MC
card and 4 indicator lights on CPU card. Please refer to Chapter4 to learn the position of
indicator lights.
Indicator lights on CPU:
D1: indicate the working status of USB slave interface. Its normally flash green quickly;
D2: indicate the working status of USB slave interface. Its normally flash green slowly;
D3: indicate the operating status. It keeps shining green when processing graphics or
downloading data from USB flash disk, and stops shining when the processing or
downloading is stopped.
D4: No use
Indicator lights on MC:
D1: When MPC6515 powered on and started, D1 keeps shining;

D2: indicate pulse output status of Z axis. D2 keeps shining when Z axis is outputting
pulses, and stops shining when outputting stopped.
D3: indicate pulse output status of Y axis. D3 keeps shining when Y axis is outputting
D4: indicate pulse output status of X axi. D4 keeps shining when X axis is outputting
D8: When CPU main loop of CPU board works normally, D8 flashes.
D7: When PAD03 is communicating with the MPC6515, D7 flashes.
8.2 Error Code Description

If theres any failure of the system, D1-D8 indicator lights on MC board indicate the error
code. The coding rules are as follows:
27
D1 to D8 indicate an 8-bit status, and compose of 1-byte.

Example: when D8, D7 and D6 keep shining, and the other indicator lights are off, the
error code should be 0xe0; when D1 to D4 are off, D5 to D8 are shining, the error code
should be 0xf0.
Light status indicated by following symbols:

indicate the light is shining
indicate the light is off

FAQ
Chapter 9 FAQ
9.1 External Indicator Light of U Disk
Functionality
User cant see the indicator lights on MPC6515 installed inside a mahine. During the
process of data downloading, user can observe the downloading process through the
interface of PAD03, or through an external connected indicate light of the USB flash disk.
The external indicator light is used to lead the reading status signal of USB flash disk to the
machine panel, and show the status with LBD.
Instruction
Use Pin3 of Y1 on MPC6515/MC( Indicate light signal of USB flash disk) to drive the
relay or LBD.
9.2 Customize PAD03 Control Panel

Functionality
PAD03 is composed of control panel, liquid crystal display and main board. If you want
to customize the panel, please refer to the following interface description graph.
The control panel is connected to the main board through a 9pin header.

9.3 External Indicator Light of Processing Status

Functionality
To confirm the processing status before operating the system, an external indicator light
could be connected to show the processing status. The external indicator light can be used
to lead the processing status signals to the machine panel, and show the status with LBD or
drive other indicator lights through circuit.
Instruction
Use Pin2 of Y1 on MPC6515/MC (light signal indicating process completion) to drive the
relay or LBD.
9.4 Blow-off
Functionality
Blow-off switch can be controlled through I/O interface to blow off the heat and ash
produced during the laser engraving and cutting.
Instruction
Pin1 of Y1 can be used as the I/O interface controlling blow-off. User can control the
status of Pin1 using processing commands. When the interface is low level, blow-off is on.
32
FAQ
When the interface is high level, blow-off is off.
9.5 Grade Engrave

Functionality
In accordance with the functionality of PCI-bus controller MPC03L*.
Instruction
The version of MPC6515 is required to be V4.1.0.0 or above. Version of software should
be V2007.3.3 or above. Set the process mode as Grade Engrave on the software. MPC6515
V4.1.0.0 supports PWM grade engrave, and 1-ch analog grade engrave.
9.6 Software Limit under Immediate Mode

Functionality
This functionality is effective only on the premise that the machine has been to the origin
point. Machine will auto-detect if the process exceed worktable before output.
Instruction
Upgrade the version of MPC6515 to V4.1.0.0 or above.
9.7 Control Two Laser Heads

Functionality
Control power of two laser heads independently.
Instruction
Upgrade MPC6515 to V4.1.0.0 or above. Upgrade software to V2007.3.3 or above.Set
power mode to LaserPowerMode=4, and set the distance of two laser heads.
