ILDA ‘through’ playback control

 (Master/Slave mode)

 

Ensure you use ILDA DB25 cables. When there is no external ILDA control signal via the ILDA Input (11), the unit can operate as 
a Master unit running from the SD card and can control other units via the ILDA Through (10) interface on the rear of the unit. 
This unit will not operate as a Master/Slave using DMX. 

 

Menu operating instructions 

After powering up the laser, the version number and manfuacturer information will briefly show on the rear panel Information 
Display LCD (4). After this, the Information Display will show the current operating standalone mode or DMX address (if the unit is 
in DMX mode). With the help of this Information Display LCD, it is very easy to set and change the operating mode of the laser. 
After setting the laser, this new mode info will be shown when the unit is next powered on.
