8. Operation

1. Power

Connect the power cable to the device and to the mains. Make sure that your device is
provided with the correct voltage. Wrong voltage could lead to irreparable damages.
Please nd the correct voltage data in the synoptical table at the end of this manual. It
must be ensured that the device is not directed to people or inammable objects du­ring installation. To start the device, connect the interlock connector, insert the key and
switch it on, and switch the device on. The “Emission - Laser on“ LED at the front side

of the device begins to light up when the device is ready for use.

2. ILDA in / ILDA out

The device can be controlled via ILDA control signal. There are an ILDA-in (ILDA input)
and an ILDA-out interface at the rear side of the device. Connect the laser system to the
control interface (DAC) by using an ILDA cable. Do not connect the laser to standard
parallel port at your computer, but always use an appropriate ILDA interface (usually is
sold together with the laser control software). After that you are able to control your
laser by a show laser control software (e.g. Laserworld Showeditor). Use the ILDA-out
interface to connect it to another device.

3. Fuse

There is a fuse at the rear side of the device. If the fuse should blow, please change it by

a new one. If the problems recurs, please contact your dealer or the Laserworld service
department.

There is a key switch at the back of the laser system. Please plug the key to the switch
and turn it on. The laser device only runs when the key is inserted and switched on.

Prevent misuse! Unplug the key when the laser is unattended to prevent misuse of
the system.

5. Safety Presets

This device has an integrated Scan Fail Safety (SFS). Is the Scan Fail Safety active (on),
single beams are prevented. If the Scan Fail Safety is switched o always ensure that

maximum permissible exposure (MPE) is not exceeded in areas accessible to the
public or members of sta.

6. X / Y Inversion

Use the X, Y, and X/Y buttons to invert the beams resp. patterns on the x-axis and/or
y-axis.
