Rotary port wiring can vary depending on the Thunder Laser machine model and control board version. This article summarizes reference information for Aurora 1.0, Aurora 2.0, Nova 7-pin, Odin, and Bolt rotary wiring differences.
Nova 7-pin, Odin, Bolt, and Aurora 2.0 share the same rotary wiring. Aurora 1.0 used ground-reference signals, so wire changes may be required for the same rotary device to work across different machine types.
Important note: This article is a reference draft and should not be used as a standalone wiring or troubleshooting procedure. Rotary wiring may vary by machine and control board. Confirm the correct wiring with official documentation or qualified technical support before making any wiring changes.
1. Aurora 1.0 Rotary Port Wiring
Aurora 1.0 can be identified by its square door and the laser source positioned on the right side. This version uses different rotary wiring compared with Nova 7-pin, Odin, Bolt, and Aurora 2.0.
For Aurora non-pro models, refer to the LMCV4-FIBER-M Aurora fiber control board manual for the LMCV4-M-Fiber Con4 pinout.
LMCV4-FIBER-M Aurora Non-Pro Fiber Control Board Manual
For Aurora Pro models, the DLC2-M4 control board uses the A-axis for the rotary. The manual indicates that the X, Y, Z, and A-axis connectors are the same connector type, with different axis designations.

3. Key Takeaways
The main wiring difference is between Aurora 1.0 and the group of Nova 7-pin, Odin, Bolt, and Aurora 2.0 machines. Aurora 1.0 uses ground-reference signals, while the newer shared wiring group uses a different reference arrangement.
Nova 7-pin, Odin, Bolt, and Aurora 2.0 share the same rotary wiring reference.
Aurora 1.0 wiring is different and may require wire changes for the same rotary device to work correctly.
Aurora non-pro and Pro models may use different control board references, so users should check the correct manual for their specific machine.
Do not rely on this reference alone for wiring or troubleshooting because wiring may vary by machine, control board, and rotary configuration.
4. Conclusion
Rotary wiring compatibility depends on the machine model and control board. Aurora 1.0 differs from Nova 7-pin, Odin, Bolt, and Aurora 2.0, which share the same rotary wiring reference.
Before using a rotary device or changing wiring, verify the machine version, control board model, connector type, and official control board manual. This helps avoid incorrect wiring and reduces the risk of machine or accessory damage.
Always verify rotary wiring before making changes. A machine with the same rotary accessory may still require different wiring depending on the machine generation and control board.
