PASS Adjustment Potentiometers
As was the case with the switches, PASS includes five potentiometers that must be adjusted to customize
the operation of PASS to a particular projector or projection scenario. Below you will see the PASS board
and location of the five adjustment potentiometers. The operation of each potentiometer is described
below.
The Minimum Velocity controls the minimum speed that the beam is required to sweep, in X
and/or Y, in order to be considered to be safe. At the factory, Pangolin sets this to around 5 radians
per second. Note that the scale of this control (in radians per second) depends on the actual
position scale factor of the scanner amplifier being used. Turning this control clockwise increases
the minimum velocity (requiring faster scanning in order to be considered safe).
The Dwell Time controls the time that a beam may remain at or below the minimum velocity,
before PASS extinguishes the beam. At the factory, Pangolin sets this to around 1.5 milliseconds,
but you must adjust this yourself by using a calibration procedure, such as the one described
below. Turning this control counter-clockwise reduces the Dwell Time, and turning this control
