Inno Pocket Fusion Laser Warnings & Safety
NON-INTERLOCKED HOUSING WARNING
The Inno Pocket Fusion contains high power laser devices internally.
Do not open the laser housing, due to the potential exposure to
unsafe levels of laser radiation. The laser power levels, if the unit is
opened, can cause instant blindness, skin burns and res.
STOP AND READ ALL LASER SAFETY DATA
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS AND LASER SAFETY
The light source emitted from this product can potentially cause eye
injury if not set up and used properly. The light source emitted from a
laser is very dierent from any other light sources with which you may
be aware of. Laser light is thousands of times more concentrated
than any light from any other kind of light source. This concentration
of light can cause instant eye injuries, primarily by burning the retina
(the back of your eyeball contatining cells that are sensitive to light).
Even if you cannot feel “heat” from a laser beam, it can still potentially injure or blind you or your audience. Even very small amounts
of laser beam light are potentially hazardous even at long distances.
Laser eye injuries can be sustained faster than you can blink.
Do not think that because this laser splits the laser beam into hundreds of beams and that the laser beam is scanned out in high
speed, that an individual laser beam is safe for eye exposure. This
laser uses dozens of milliwatts of laser power (Class 3B levels internally) before it splits into multiple beams (Class 3R levels). Many of
the individual beams are potentially hazardous to the eyes.
Do not that because the laser light is moving, it is safe. This is not
true. Nor, do the laser beams always move. Since eye injuries can
occur instantly, it is critical to prevent even the smallest possibility of
any direct eye exposure. In the laser safety regulation, it is not legal
to aim Class 3R lasers in areas which people can get exposed. This
is true even if it is aimed below people’s faces, such as on a dance
oor.
Do not operate the laser without rst reading and understanding
all safety and technical data in this manual.
Always set up and install all laser eects so that all laser light is at
least 3 meters (9.8 feet) above the oor on which people can stand.
After setting up, and before public use, test laser to ensure proper
function. Do not use if any defect is detected. Do not use if laser
emits only one or two laser beams rather than dozens/hundreds, as
this could indicate damage to the diraction grating optic, and could
allow emission of higher laser levels above Class 3R.
Do not point lasers at people or animals. Never look into the laser
aperture or laser beams.
Do not point lasers in areas in which people can potentially get
exposed, such as uncontrolled balconies, etc.
Do not point lasers at highly reective surfaces, such as windows,
mirrors and shiny metal. Even laser reections can be hazardous.
Never point a laser at aircraft, this is a federal oense.
Never point un-terminated laser beams into the sky.
Do not expose the output optic (aperture) to cleaning chemicals.
Do not use laser if the laser appears to be emitting only one or two
beams.
Do not use the laser if the housing is damaged, the housing is open,
or if the optics appear damaged in any way.
Inno Pocket Fusion Laser Warning Labels
Never open the laser housing. The high laser power levels inside of
the protective housing can start res, burn skin and will cause instant
eye injury.
Never leave this device running unattended.
The operation of a class 3R laser show is only allowed if the show
is controlled by a skilled and well- trained operator, familiar with the
data included in this manual.
The legal requirements for using laser entertainment products vary
from country to country. The user is responsible for the legal requirements at the location/country of use.
Always use proper lighting safety cables when hanging lights and
eects overhead.
Termination reduces signalerrors andavoids signal transmission problemsand interference. It is always advisableto connect a DMX terminal, (Resistance120 Ohm 1/4 W) between PIN 2 (DMX-)and PIN 3 (DMX +) of the last fixture.

Inno Pocket Fusion Set Up
Power Supply: The ADJ Inno Pocket Fusion contains a automatic
voltage switch, which will auto sense the voltage when it is plugged
into a power source. With this switch there is no need to worry about
the correct power voltage, this unit can be plugged in anywhere.
DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal pro-
tocol used by most lighting and controller manufactures as a form of
communication between intelligent fixtures and controllers. A DMX
controller sends DMX data instructions from the controller to the fixture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from fixture to fixture
via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX
fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA “OUT” terminal).
DMX Linking: DMX is a language allowing all makes and models
of dierent manufactures to be linked together and operate from a
single controller, as long as all xtures and the controller are DMX
compliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using
several DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. The
order in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence
the DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned a DMX address
of 1 may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the
end, or anywhere in the middle. Therefore, the first fixture controlled
by the controller could be the last fixture in the chain. When a fixture
is assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send
DATA assigned to address 1 to that unit, no matter where it is located
in the DMX chain.
Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX and Master/Slave
Operation): The Inno Pocket Fusion can be controlled via DMX-512
protocol. The Inno Pocket Fusion has 5 DMX channel modes. The
DMX address is set electronically using the controls on the front panel
of the unit. Your unit and your DMX controller require a approved DMX512 110 Ohm Data cable for data input and data
output (Figure 1). We recommend Accu-Cable DMX
cables. If you are making your own cables, be sure
to use standard 110-120 Ohm shielded cable (This
cable may be purchased at almost all professional
sound and lighting stores). Your cables should be
made with a male and female XLR connector on
either end of the cable. Also remember that DMX
Figure 1
cable must be daisy chained and cannot be split.
Notice: Be sure to follow gures two and three when making your own
cables. Do not use the ground lug on the XLR connector. Do not connect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield
conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding
the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behavior.

Special Note: Line Termination.
When longer runs of cable are
used, you may need to use a terminator on the last unit to avoid erratic
behavior. A terminator is a 110-120 ohm 1/4 watt resistor which is connected between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector (DATA + and
DATA -). This unit is inserted in the female XLR connector of the last
unit in your daisy chain to terminate the line. Using a cable terminator
(ADJ part number Z-DMX/T) will decrease the possibilities of erratic
behavior.

5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors.
Some manufactures use 5-pin DMX-
512 data cables for DATA transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin DMX
xtures may be implemented in a 3-pin DMX line. When inserting standard 5-pin data cables in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used,
these adaptors are readily available at most electric stores. The chart
below details a proper cable conversion.
