Create a HAL component that will latch a floating-point value when its strobe input is activated.
Use one of the m-code syncronized outputs as the strobe signal. Pass the latched value through a PWM generator to your laser's control. When Z is set at the power level you want, execute the M-code for strobe. The new HAL component will latch the Z-value and pass it on to the laser.
