the user guide before activating the device.

•  Mount the pan/tilt device on a horizontal and flat surface.

NOTE- When installing the Hawk Laser on a high post, please 
ensure both buttons are switched on (pushed in) the main 
unit before erecting.

•  Do not

 position the pan/tilt device on a surface which is 

subject to vibration.

•  Do not

 use external force to stop the running of the pan/tilt

•  Do not

 allow laser beam to cross public roads, pathways, 

footpaths or parking spaces.

•  The Scan30 laser should be mounted and programmed in 

such a way that people are not able to stare into the laser 
beam.

•  The rating protection of the Scan30 is IP65 so it can be used 

both indoors and outdoors.

Installation

1.  Mount the pan/tilt device
2.  Mount the junction box on the wall
3.  Plug in the connector of the Scan30 laser to T1 of the 

junction box.

4.  Connect P1J connector to DC 12V power supply.
5.  Turn on Scan30 laser
6.  Connect the controller to the communication port on the 

Pan/Tilt or T2 of junction box to program the Scan30 laser.

7.  The (speed) key is used to change the running speed of 

the Pan/Tilt. The Pan/Tilt has 4 running speeds and should 
ideally be set to the low speed for best results.

Note:

Pressing any key on the controller will be effective only when 
the pan/tilt is not running. When the pan/tilt is running, pressing 
any key on the controller will stop the pan/tilt. The key must be 
pressed again to enter the command.

Operation

After power is turned on, the pan/tilt device with take approx. 30 
seconds to seek the “origin” position.  At this point the pan/tilt 
cannot be controlled by the controller.
Once the pan/tilt device completes seeking the “origin” position, 
the scan30 can be started to run one of the following 3 operation 
modes:

1.  Manual Mode:

 Use the joystick to move the laser beam.

2.  Scan Mode:

 The laser beam sweeps back and forth without 

changing in tilt direction. Scan mode can be started by 
pressing the (scan) key on the controller.

3.  Run mode:

 The laser beam will move from one preset 

position to another. The Scan30 has two running modes, 
S mode and R mode. In S mode, the laser beam will move 
according to the sequence of the preset position. In R 
mode, the laser beam will run between the preset positions 
randomly. Run Mode can be started by pressing the (Run) 
key on the controller.

There is an Emergency Stop switch in the junction box, pressing 
this switch will remotely shut down the laser. Clockwise rotation of 
the switch will release the switch and turn the laser on again. The 
Emergency Stop switch is the remote interlock of the Scan30 laser.

Programming the Preset Position Laser Control

The two keys (on) and (off) on the controller are used to enable 
and disable the laser.
Pressing (on) will turn on the laser and (off) will turn off the laser.
Once the laser is turned off and the controller is unplugged from 
the Scan30 laser, the laser cannot be turned on anymore. This 
will prevent unauthorised people from turning on the laser. The 
two keys (on) and (off) on the controller are used as the security 
master control of the laser.

Programming the Pan/Tilt device

4.  Repeat step 2 and step 3 to save more positions.  A total of 

16 positions can be saved, from No.1 to No.16.

5.  Once you have your last position steer the laser back to the 

origin start position or close to it and preset this as the final 
preset number.
