- Assembling the X and Y profiles to form the frame.
- Mounting the control box assembly and support feet.
- Installing the X-axis assembly and laser module.
- Connecting the limit switches and wiring.
- Attaching the air pump and air pipe.
4.2. Connecting the TS1 Touch Screen
The TS1 touch screen connects to the S30 laser engraver via a USB cable. Plug one end of the USB cable into the S30 control box and the other end into the TS1. Connect the TS1 to its power adapter and plug it into a power outlet.
4.3. Stàladh bathar-bog
