SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
If the device has been exposed to great temperature changes, do not switch it on
immediately. Condensation water may damage your device. Leave the device
switched off until it has reached room temperature.
The laser must only be used for shows. Any operation has to be attended and
supervised by a skilled and well-trained operator.
Never leave this device running unattended and keep it away from children and
unauthorized persons.
Keep away from heaters and other heat sources. In order to safeguard sufficient
ventilation, leave 50 cm of free space around the device.
Never direct the laser beam to people or animals.
CAUTION LASER IO E: If you open the device for cleaning, always disconnect from
mains!
-HEALTH HAZARD! Never loo directly into the light source, as
sensitive persons may suffer an epileptic shoc !
These lasers are considered a definite eye hazard,
particularly at the higher power levels, which WILL cause
eye damage. So these laser series models supplied with a
key switch to prevent unauthorized use, warning labels
and aperture labels affixed to the laser.
Installation safety
Prior to installation and operation of the laser, the paths of the
beams and effects should be considered, particularly with
respect to how they will reach the audience. If direct audience scanning is desired, then the
laser energy in the effects needs to be considered to decide if the effects are safe for direct
viewing. Always ensure, that the maximum permissible exposure (MPE) is not exceeded in
the area accesible to the public. So install the laser in such a way, that minimum distances
and heights ensure the MPE is never exceeded in the public area.
OPERATING THE LASER
The operator has to make sure that laser radiation – also reflected laser radiation – higher
than the maximum permissible level is avoided by technical or organisational measures.
(Especially with respect to the MPE, see above.)
Make sure to use the correct voltage
If the device is used in a flying installation, the mounting brackets and an appropriate safety-
rope must be fixed.
In some countries, the operator must notify the accidence insurance and the authority for
industrial safety, before operating a laser. For more information, contact the relevant
authorities.
Please consider that unauthorized modifications on the device are strictly forbidden due to
safety reasons!
If this device will be operated in any way differently than described in this manual, the
product may suffer damages and the guarantee becomes void. Furthermore, any other
operation may lead to dangers like short-circuit, burns, electric shock, etc.

Keep surrounding dry and clean. This unit should be keep dry, do not use in the rain or
damp and dusty environment. Projector should be put in a water-proof housing when
operated outside.
Regularly open the device (see “cleaning” further down) to check for dust inside, or if fog
fluid condenses in the housing (if so rearrange hazer and/or laser position).
Operating temperature is 10~35°C. In a new installation, check after some 15-30 minutes
whether the outlet air gets too warm. Regularly check the inside for dust deposits, especially
around the fans. Let laser cool off 10minutes after 2 hours of operation,to ensure maximum
lifetime for the diode.
istance between laser aperture and projection screen should be not less than 1 meter.
o not turn device on and immediately off again frequently.
o not look into the laser beam directly, especially not with optical instruments.
o not touch the device with wet hands.
When the laser diode becomes dim or broken, please contact your dealer timely.
When returning laser to dealer/manufacturer always use original packaging.
Maintenance should be performed every 15-day period. See “cleaning” further down.
Using the laser
Make sure the correct voltage is used. Connect mains. Connect an emergency switch to the
9-pin connector on the backside (pins 1, 2). If you do not wish to connect an emergency
switch, connect the 9-pin plug. epending on the mode selected (see below), laser light
should come out of the opening on the front panel – be careful.
Control panel
Operating modes
The following operating modes can be selected from the IP switch on the backside of the
device:
IP switch 1-10 Mode
0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 Music activ
1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 Automatic mode / beameffects
1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 Automatic mode / graphics
x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,1 MX
“Music activ”: patterns are changed/animated to the beat of the music. Sensitivity can be
adjusted with the knob on the back of the device.
“Automatic mode”: patterns are changed automatically
“DMX“: MX512 Modus-. Use the first 9 switches to select the address:
X x x x x x x x x
1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256
e.g. 1000 0000 01, MX mode address 1 (1+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0)
0010 0100 01, MX mode address 36 (0+0+4+0+0+32+0+0+0)
1 Power switch: power on/off
2 Remotelock: connect emergency switch. If
no emergency switch is connected use the
9 pin plug supplied.
3 IP switch: MX address/mode selection
(see below)
4 MX 512 in/out
5 Music mode: sensitivity
6 Microphone
7 Safety switch: laser on/off

ILDA mode
When an IL A compatible interface is connected to the laser, the laser is automatically
switched to IL A mode. Output is then controlled from a PC running software.
The laser uses pins 4 and 17 of the I LA signal to detect the presence of an IL A interface.
Further information can be found in the software manual.

Maintenance / cleaning
Always disconnect from mains before cleaning/opening the laser. Regularly clean the interior
from dust, especially ensure operation of the fans. To open the device remove two screws
on the top side of one side panel (front/back), bend the side panel slightly outwards, and
slide the top cover out. Use a sponge with alcohol, rather than wet cloth or other chemical
liquid, to clean the mirrors. Be careful, even light scratches reduce the output power of the
laser. 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.
