According to the actual feedrate, the laser power control function controls
each of the laser output conditions: peak power, pulse frequency, and
pulse duty cycle.
When laser power control mode, described below, is set with a G code or
external signal, the power specification, pulse frequency, and pulse duty
cycle are controlled according to the following formula:
M + Mo ) (Mc–Mo)
F
Fc
Mo : Each data item (power, frequency, duty cycle) when feedrate
F = 0 To be set by parameters
Mmin : Minimum clamp value for each data item (parameter)
To be set by parameters
Mc : Each specified data item when laser power control mode is set
To be set by programming
Fc : Specified feedrate when laser power control mode is set

Laser power control mode can be set with a G code or external signal.
When power control mode is set, the power control mode on signal
(F224#1) is output.
