Visuals play a huge role in the sensory experience of music. The synergy of
lasers, lights, screens and strobes are why we go to clubs and festivals. The LC-
1000 features over 100 built-in visualizers and a library of music laser shows.
The LC-1000 combines a portable laser projector, music visualizer and laser
show software. Just connect a Mac, PC, or Android device and that’s it. With it’s
compact size, bring the party everywhere with you.
With the easy-to-use LaserOS projector software, enjoy laser shows, games,
clocks, social media, projection mapping and more...
“Caution – use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other
than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.”

2. LC-1000 Parts Diagram
1. Laser Aperture - Laser light is emitted from this opening.
2. Beam Block - Prevents laser emission and also restricts the laser scan
from going into an audience.
3. Key Control LED indicators –shows if the LC-1000 is Locked/Unlocked
and when the lasers are emitting.
4. Charge Status LED indicator –changes color from red to green to show
battery charge
5. Power Switch LED indicator - shows if the LC-1000 is powered On/Off
6. Micro USB Port - Provides connection and control of the LC-1000 via a
PC/Mac/Android device. The laser will turn off if it is disconnected.
7. Key Control - Prevents accidental operation. Resetting of the key control
will be required if there is a power loss or remote interlock cycling.
8. Remote Interlock Connector- Provides a safety shut-off for terminating the
laser emission via a jumper connection. A jumper is included with the
product.
9. Power (DC) Input - Power connection/charging port via wall outlet.
10.Power Switch - Toggles the power ON or OFF.

5. Safety Guidelines and Proper Usage
1. No scheduled maintenance necessary to keep the product in compliance.
Simply keep the laser free from dust or other contaminates that could cloud or
dirty the laser aperture. Cleaning the aperture window is the ONLY maintenance
allowed and must be performed with the unit powered down and locked off.
Servicing by the user is not allowed. Any attempt to open or modify the unit
is prohibited. Instant permanent blindness may result in case of an
accidental eye exposure to the beam.
2. Do not expose the human eye directly or indirectly to focused or scattered
laser radiation as loss of vision, complete blindness, and/or other serious injuries
may result. Lasers are capable of starting fires at great distances. Do not use
around flammable materials.*
3. Do not take apart, modify or dismantle the laser or operate it under abnormal
current load (doing so will void the warranty). Strictly no service is allowed.
Servicing should only be handled by authorized factory trained technicians.
4. Always treat your laser with great care as some components are very fragile
and must not be subjected to shock.
5. Avoid turning the laser on and off frequently as it will reduce the diode life. This
device does not have a set duty cycle but we do not recommend using it for more
than four hours continuously.
6. From time to time, clean the laser aperture with a dry tissue that does not pill.
You may also use an alcohol prep wipe and compressed air to blow dust from
the vents. BE SURE the alcohol has dried fully before activating the laser. This
is the only user maintenance allowed and can ONLY be performed with the
unit powered down and locked off.
7. Always keep all factory supplied labels on the unit and visible. These are
required for legal compliance.
8. During use, be sure to leave an open space around all sides of the laser to
facilitate airflow through the heatsink beneath the device.
9. Operate your laser only within the specified temperature range of 10°C (50°F)
to 40°C (104°F). Failure to do so may result in weak output, overly strong output
which will diminish the life of the unit and/or large output power swings. The LC-
1000 is thermostatically monitored so we can determine if a failure was

temperature related. Such failures are NOT covered under our manufacturer’s
warranty. Extreme cold and hot temperatures WILL cause a diode failure. Keep
this unit climate controlled at ALL times.
10. Always ensure that the main power supply is properly grounded before use.
Do not use a 2 prong IEC cord with this projector. You should always hook up a
laser system in such a way that you have both a primary and backup means of
instantly terminating laser emissions.
11. DO NOT USE the laser device if you suspect that it contains a defect of any
kind either from manufacturing, damage, general wear or has a broken
manufacturer’s seal. Contact Magnum Lighting to return the unit to the factory for
service and/or maintenance immediately.
12. Should you have difficulty operating the laser properly and troubleshooting
does not work, go to http://www.magnumlighting.com for support and RMA
assistance if necessary. Do not attempt to service, modify or fix the laser yourself.
You will be provided with instructions on how to send the laser projector back for
repair.
13. Before using this product in any capacity, ensure that the unit is properly
secured to prevent accidental beam shifts and that a safety cable is used for any
aerial rigging.
14. This product is not a toy and should be kept inaccessible to unauthorized
persons before, during, and after use. Keep away from minors.
15. Authorized persons should only be employees of an FDA variance holder.
See the Magnum website: http://variance.magnumlighting.com/ for obtaining a
variance and to view online laser safety and operator training.
16. This product is not to be used outdoors. Do not allow laser light to escape
indoor settings as this level of laser light can interfere with Aircraft operation at
many miles. DO NOT allow lasers to hit aircraft or enter airspace. Shining a laser
at an aircraft in the US is considered a federal crime punishable by fines or jail
time.**
17. Before using this product, it is the responsibility of the user to be familiar with
all Federal and State reporting and usage requirements. Laws vary by state,
some US states require additional licensing and/or registration. Many locations
require operation only under the supervision of a trained Laser Safety Officer
(LSO). An FDA variance is required to operate this product in the United States.
