I got a 2w Nextwave Shark CNC piranha 2w laser head and control interface box in a lot of equipment recently, I'd like to use this with a CNC router of a different brand I have. I reached out to Nextwave for pinouts and got back:

"I do apologize as the pin out for our laser hub is proprietary and can not be given out. "

Now that I know what brand not to buy, the head has five wires and apparently output power can be controlled. The unit is shown on page 7 of the manual here:

Before I tear into this thing any tips on how I might interface with this? I know its kind of a toy at 2w but would be neat to experiment with...
