As the first company in the world, MediaLas announced an RGB whitelight projector late 
2002, and presented the design early 2003 on Frankfurt´s Pro Light & Sound trade show. In 
the meantime, MediaLas sold and manufactured a large number of MultiColor systems and 
earned lots of experience in designing a stable and handy whitelight system. In 2008, the 
multi awarded Infinity show lasers where introduced. In 2009, the AttaXX series was born. 
By using a sandwich heat exchanger instead of single airflow devices, the optical section has 
been completely separated from any airflow or heat sink, and comes dust sealed with an anti-
reflective coated output window.  
 

Technology of AttaXX laser projectors 
 

All AttaXX projectors are developed, tested and manufactured in Germany by MediaLas. 
Each projector and its components run through extensive tests and alignment procedures, to 
ensure a long and stable lifetime. The sandwich heat exchanger not only increases stability, 
but also reduces thermal effects on the lasers and optics dramatically. Furthermore, active 
cooled lasers and laser diodes are used.  
 
Due to the nature of high-tech optical equipment used in the optical table section of the 
AttaXX, the devices are more sensitive to external influences than normal lighting devices. 
Please use this manual for basic hints and tricks for maintenance of AttaXX Laser Systems. In 
case of any further help, please contact our service staff. Actual phone numbers and contact 
information is provided on our website at www.medialas.com 
 

 
Specification of laser output power 

 
All AttaXX laser systems´ output power is specified "after the laser", as stated in brochures 
and websites. The laser output power can be measured inside the housing, after beam 
combination and collimation BEFORE the scanner mirrors and output window. The power is 
stated as an average output power, with a tolerance of less than +/-10%.  
 

 
Adjusting the scanners 

 
On normal circumstances and under normal operating conditions, there is no need to readjust 
the scanners. If, for any case, a readjustment has to be done, please refer to attachments 
"Scanner tuning". 
 
 

Aligning the optical color mixing device 

 
After heavy transportation, or after large temperature differences, coming from outside cold 
ambient to an inside warm ambient, it might be necessary to realign the optical setup inside. 
Under normal circumstances, the optical section is maintenance free, and does not need to be 
realigned.  
 
The AttaXX optical section was designed for very easy alignment. The front lid can be 
opened by the user, to adjust RGB mixing very easily from the front.
