ILDA mode
When an ILDA compatible interface is connected to the laser, the laser is automatically switched to ILDA mode.
Output is then controlled by a PC running laser control software. The scanners are set for ca. 10000 PPS at 20-
25° optical. When running faster, reduce image size/scan angle.
Maintenance / cleaning
Always disconnect from the mains when the device is not in use or before cleaning it.
Open the device by removing top cover, remove 8 screws. Remove any deposits of dust, especially at the fan.
Check for condensed fog fluid inside. If so, clean and rearrange the position of laser and or hazer.
Mirrors need
cleaning when a “halo” is noticeable around the beam or an unusual high amount of diffuse light can be seen
inside the device.
Clean the mirrors with window cleaner and a paper towel.
Never look directly into the light source. Always disconnect from the mains when the device is not
in use or before cleaning it.
Troubleshooting
Problem
Possible cause
No function / fan not working
Check mains connection
Effects don’t change to the beat of the music
Adjust sensitivity with the dial on the back.
Check if device isn’t in DMX or autom. mode
Problems with DMX control
Check DMX address selection
Device not working, but fan working
Turn device off for ca. 1 minute.
Laser does not switch to ILDA mode:
•
The interface does not connect pins 4 and 17 (Interlock) of the IDLA signal. See interface manual
•
The cable does not connect pins 4 and 17. Use a cable that connects pins 4 and 17.
•
Use an adapter that connects pins 4 and 17.
