9. Turn device o
To turn o the device, use the power button („OFF“), turn the key to ‚OFF‘ and disconnect
the power cable from the mains.
9. Operation Modes
(Firmware version: 20190520x - Admin tool: v1.33)
This laser system can be operated in many dierent operation modes. It is possible to
directly control the laser system via computer and laser show software as well as to trig-
ger eects stored to the internal SD card via DMX/ArtNet consoles, in stand-alone mode
or in sound-to-light mode. It is also possible to use the laser system as receiver for ILDA
streaming signals from external ShowNET interfaces.
1. Download admin tool
For testing the show laser system and for other purposes, like uploading ILDA les to the
integrated SD card, download the admin tool here:
https://www.laserworld.com/shownet_mainboard
Open the „ShowNET-Admin_Tool.exe“ whenever this manual refers to the admin
tool.
IMPORTANT: It‘s not possible to access the admin tool, when you are accessing the laser
system via software (Showeditor, Showcontroller, etc.). When opening the admin tool
while accessing the laser system in a non-direct-control operation mode, the admin tool
asks to press on a button to switch to network mode for manual control.
2. Direct computer control
a) ILDA control with external DAC interface
The laser system can be controlled via ILDA control signal. There are an ILDA-in (ILDA
input) and an ILDA-thropugh connector at the back side of the device. Connect the laser
system to the control interface (DAC) by using an ILDA cable. Do not connect the laser
to the standard parallel port at the computer, but always use an appropriate ILDA inter-
face. After that the laser can becontrolled by a show laser control software. Use the ILDA-
through connector to daisy-chain the ILDA signal to another laser system.
As this laser system has an integrated DAC interface as mainboard (ShowNET) it is pos-
sible to directly control the laser via LAN without the need of ILDA cables or an external
DAC interface.
b) Direct operation via laser show software, with LAN connection
(1) SHOWEDITOR - free laser show software
This laser system comes with an integrated network interface. The Showeditor laser soft-
ware is included with this ShowNET mainboard for free. It is a full feature laser control
software with LIVE and Timeline control mode and many free laser shows included in
delivery.
Use standard ethernet cable (RJ45 standard) to connect the LAN port of the show laser
system to the computer. Standard network switches can be used to connect multiple
laser systems at once.

Manual: Laserworld Purelight Series
page 11 / 69
English
The software can be downloaded for free on:
https://www.showeditor.com
After downloading and installing the software, open the .exe le on the computer and
use the software to operate the show laser system.
Details on installation and use of the software please nd on the aforementioned web-
site.
(2) SHOWCONTROLLER - professional laser show and multimedia control software
suite
The integrated ShowNET mainboard fully supports the direct control of the laser via
Showcontroller as well. Showcontroller is a mightly software tool with many professional
features. It is very intuitive and thus easy to get started with, too.
The Software and a Demo Version can be downloaded on:
https://www.showcontroller.com
A license can be obtained from where this laser has been purchased.
3. Trigger ILDA les on the internal SD card and own eects
This laser system has an integrated memory (SD card) that can hold ILDA les with laser
frames and animations that can be triggered in dierent ways. It is possible to just use the
standard les that come with delivery or change the les to new, custom ones.
a) Upload own ILDA les to the integrated SD card
Besides the possibility to just upload *.ild les to the SD card with a standard card reader,
it is also possible to remotely load ILDA les to the integrated SD card via LAN without
having to open the device and extract the SD card from the mainboard.
To change the ILDA les, open the admin tool and select the tab‚SD Card‘ as shown in the
picture below:
Select the folder with the ILDA les on the local hard drive by clicking on the button with
the three points on it:
IMPORTANT: Custom laser les have to be stored in *.ild format and must be named with
a number from‚000.ild‘ to‚255.ild‘. Each number represents a DMX value on the respective
fader.
To upload *.ild les greater than 6 MB, please use an external card reader. Otherwise the
import may cause problems.

Manual: Laserworld Purelight Series
page 12 / 69
English
Select the *.ild les to be uploaded from the computer (left side) to the integrated SD card
memory (right side).
Click on the button with the two arrows to the right to upload the *.ild les to the integ-
rated SD card. The les are copied and saved now.
Be aware that, due to the optimized data structure on the mainboard, the upload of
ILDA les can take a while! (several minutes!)
IMPORTANT: It is not possible to upload any other data than *.ild les to the SD card!
If you wanto to change the microSD card inside the housing, please contact the Laser-
world Service Department.
Due to the huge number of available micro SD cards in the market, it cannot be guaran-
teed that all cards are compatible with the laser systems mainboard. The use of standard
sized (max. 2GB) SD cards instead of high capacity SDHC or XDHC cards is recommended.
It is also possible to copy the existing *.ild les on the SD card to the computer by selec-
ting the les on the right side. Then click on the button with the two arrows to the left.
With the button‚invert selection‘ it is possible to select all les with just one click.
The button with the exclamation mark formats the SD card and thus deletes all exisiting
les.
To delete single les, select the very *.ild le and then click on the button with the‚X‘ on
it (next to the one with the exklamation mark).
In case they got deleted by accident, the standard les card can be downloaded on
https://www.laser-interface.com

In stand-alone mode the ILDA les on the integrated SD card are triggered automatically.
This setting is especially suitable for demo purposes or for xed laser installations.
The stand alone mode allows for additional advanced features: As standard, the stand
alone mode cycles through the ILDA les on the SD cards and plays the consecutively
and in a general loop.
If DIP switch 4 is activated too, the stand alone mode only plays one specic ILDA le and
just loops this le.

to o again)
c) Demo Mode / Automatic Animation
switch 12345678910
On (1) / O (0) 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0
In demo mode the ILDA les on the integrated SD card are triggered automatically. The
ILDA les are not only played back like in the stand alone mode, but they are also auto-
matically animated by ShowNET‘s internal intelligence. This creates dynamic animations,
even if only static frames are on the SD card.
This setting is especially suitable for demo purposes.
d) Sound-to-Light Mode / Music Mode
switch 12345678910
On (1) / O (0) 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0
In sound-to-light mode, the ILDA les on the integrated SD card are triggered by the beat
of the music. The sensitivity of the microphone can be adjusted withe the trim pot at the
back side of the device marked„Sens“.

4. Network Operation
Important:
Only ShowNET interfaces and potentially an ArtNet controller must be used in the same net-
work. Avoid using other network devices in the same network.
Avoiding connectivity issues, Troubleshooting:
- Make sure that no rewall is blocking the network trac between the computer and the
show laser device. The rewall has to be congured to grant network access to the laser
show software.
- If the network connection does not work, try to temporarily disable the rewall. If this
helps, create a matching rule and re-activate the rewall.
- Whenever the DIP switch settings for the network mode are changed (for example,
change static IP address or switch from DHCP to AutoIP mode), the show laser de-
vice has to be restarted (switch power o and on).
- The interface has to be connected to a 100Mbit or Gigabit Ethernet LAN. 10Mbit Ethernet
is not suitable.
- The use of WIFI (WLAN) is not recommended. This will result in decreased output perfor-
mance and unsafe operation.
Attention - maximum cable length:
When using ethernet cables with RJ45 connection, always pay attention to the maximum
length of the very cable. E.g. :
Cat 5e = max. 100 m
Cat 6 = max. 50 m
Cat 7 = max. 50 m
Cat 8 = max. 30 m
You can use normal network switches to amplify the signal and extend the range!
Without amplication of the signal (e.g. via a switch) it is recommended to use ber trans-
mission as soon as longer distances are required.
a) DHCP Mode
Dip switch setting
switch 12345678910
On (1) / O (0) 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
In this mode, the IP address is provided by a DHCP server. Therefore, a DHCP server has to
be available in the network. For example, this could be a cheap 100MBit network router
with integrated DHCP server. This option does not work if there is no device in the same
network that can distribute and manage network addresses as DHCP! In this case, try
AutoIP as connection method (e.g. if the laser is directly connected to the computer)!
