Details of the required set-up for using the ESS with a laser and Mach4 are provided on the Warp9 website;  https://www.warp9td.com/index.php/faq/faq-mach4#LaserSetup
The necessary Mach4 plugin is also available on their website.

Thank you we,understand interface for CO2 laser. but we want to interface a Fibre Laser, where digital interface is different from CO2, for example, no PWM needed, but master oscillator and beam performance is set by digital bits

To my knowledge this has not been done within Mach4 (yet) so no plugin exists.
You could try contacting Warp9TD to ask if they have any plans for this method of control.
