I have a cnc controller but I can't find the pwm terminal to hook up a laser diode, but in the board there is space that is written 10v please I need help will attach a picture of the China controller. All ideas are welcome

Looks exactly the same and shows your 10v pin is the PWM type speed control and the AVI/GND are the analog (0-10) type control.
[QUOTE=dazp1976;yes they look alike but the laser already have 12v going into it, and the controller has 10v, won't there be issue. I don't know much about electronics and electricals
The 10v is an input for the PWM to Analog 0-10v converterQuote:

What is the laser requirements, to turn it on??Quote:

@mactec54, all it requires to turn on is 12dcv and a PWM
@CNCMAN172 please do you have have any particular pwm card in mind.
Here is a simple card, you can get matching cables this will provide the PWM signal required by most spindles, lasers, etc.Quote:

I’m confused how this card would control a laser? It’s for spindle speed control.
This card lets you control your spindle with PWM and direction signals, as if it was an axis motor. It converts the step signal into and an analog (0-10VDC).

That is of no use what's so ever, he already has a Breakout Board that can do what this doesQuote:
