Instruction Manual

（Before using，please read the user manual carefully.）
This is product integrates many advanced technologies like optics,
electronics, digital graphic processing, especially designed for dancing halls
and DISCO. According to music rhythms, built-in beam program can be
activated; if using smoke, light curtain wall and time tunnel can be formed to
create a colorful and fantastic laser world.
NOTICE
The best temperature range of using laser：20～35℃.
Do not reflect to the eye directly in case of hurting.
Do not use the laser over AC220V～240V and please make sure
reliable grounding.
Do not turn on and turn off frequently; this will affect the laser’s
normal life.
Based on the working character of solid state laser, please try not
to work for a long time. If the laser works continuously for three
hours, please turn off the laser 15 minutes. After the laser is cold,
start to turn on again.
Do not use hands to touch the lens in case it will affect the effects.
If there appears breakdown, please ask experts to repair; do not
remove the laser yourself.
Attention：Destroy the laser or tear up the warranty label artificially,
it’s all beyond warranty scope. Please read the warranty rules.

1.1 Single user mode:
1.1.1 Use dip switch to set operating mode(See the table below）. Set
the operating mode according to clients’requirement: SOUND
ACTIVE or AUTO MODE.
1.1.2 Connect the power supply, and the lamp start to project laser light.
1.1.3 When in SOUND ACTIVE mode，adjust sound control sensitivity,
and adjust the sound control sensitivity knob according to the
surrounding’s sound strength. In the front panel when the blue
indicator flashes to indicate the sound activation, the system is in
sound active program; when in Auto mode, the system is in
Auto-working program.

1.2 Scanner master & slave synchronous mode:
The switching method of Master & slave synchronous mode
Master: sound activation( switch 0 in address code) or auto mode( switch
1in address code) or animation mode( switch 1,2 in address code)
Master ( sound activation, auto, animation mode)

Slave: switch 2 or switch 3
1.1 Set working mode. Set a laser in Master& Slave mode(MASTER：
SOUND/AUTO）, and other lasers are all set in Slave mode.
1.2 Connect the line. Use XLR-XLR line to connect the XLR output of the
master to the XLR input of the first slave, and then connect the XLR output
of the first slave to the XLR input of the second slave. Do like this until all the
slaves are connected.
1.3 Connect the power supply, and the lamp start to project laser light. And
the slave beam is synchronous with master.
1.4 When in SOUND ACTIVE mode，adjust sound control sensitivity, and
adjust the sound control sensitivity knob according to the surrounding’s
sound strength. In the front panel when the blue indicator flashes to
indicate the sound activation, the system is in sound active program; when
in Auto mode, the system is in Auto-working program.

DMX mode switching method:
When in DMX mode, the DMX controller controls the laser, and the
corresponding function of every channel is shown in attachment. The
DMX address code is in the attached address table.
First to ninth: starting address
The tenth: sound control/ DMX functions change
OFF：sound control ON： DMX signal control
. Animation Laser (with PC interface)
1. Front panel and rear panel schemes (According to different models, the
panel will be different.)
○,1 light outlet ○,2 Fan
○,3 power supply ○,4PC interface (ILDA/DB-25)

○,5 Sound control sensitivity knob ○,6 DMX XLR
○,7 power socket ○,8 Address code switch
○,9 sound control MIC
2.The operating method of lasers with PC interface is the same as that
of lasers without PC interface. So I will not repeat here. And now
let’s introduce how to use PC interface. Please connect the lines as
following.
Lasers can connect the ILDA output software like Phoenix, Pangolin and
Ishow.
Attention: After connecting, the laser will not be controlled by its own
program.
After connecting software, users can edit pictures, animation, characters
freely.
Lasers with SD card can also edit pictures, animation, characters and so

on. Please refer to the user manual of lasers with SD card and CD.
DMX512 Controller connecting lasers:

DMX Console(Sending end) laser1(Receiving end）Laser2

For example, If the laser has 11 channels, the address is set as: 000000001
000001100 000010111 …………
1.Connection Method：
DMX Console---------Laser
Every machine is connected in series like serial installation.
Many people thought signal is serial but DMX signal is collateral.
All the receiving ends are connected in parallel in DMX control. If
address code isn’t differentiated, we can’t differentiate sending
ends. As long as the sending ends are differentiated, it can form
different and regular effects. Therefore, the address switch in our
laser can set address, and then DMX console can tell the
difference. How to set the address can be shown at 3. (Attention:

the terminal should connect with 120 Resistor to avoid signal
disturbing.
2. Address allocation:
DMX 512 supports 512 channels. If every laser has 16 channels,
so is can connect 32 pieces of lasers. Usually, RGB LED has 3
channels, so DMX 512 console can connect 170 pieces of LED in
every line.
3. How to set address code switch:
Address code setting: In the binary system, the first has 0 and 1
numerical value, and it corresponds with Switch “OFF” and “ON”.
When calculating, meet 2 into, as shown below:
LOOP ADDR BINARY USAGE OF DIP SWITCH
First laser 1 000000001 =
Second laser 12 000001100 =
Third laser 23 000010111=
Forth laser 34 000100010=

Common abnormal phenomena & failure elimination
1. In the sound activation mode, beam effects don’t change with music.
Elimination method: Rotate right (Sensitivity control) knob until you obtain
satisfactory effects.
When in DMX512 mode, push-and-pull controlling rob doesn’t work.
Elimination method: First check whether DMX 512 controller can work
normally and whether the signal lines are connected correctly; and then
check whether the first channel push rob of the laser is in the controlling
(the numerical value is between 192-255).
3. The laser doesn’t react.
Elimination method: First check whether the fan can rotate, then check
whether the power supply is connected and the fuse is broken.。
4. The laser doesn’t shine enough.
Elimination method: The laser need preheat time, so please preheat
5-10 minutes before using; please check whether the lens is dirty and
use soft cotton swab with absolute alcohol to clean the lens.
