Never look directly into the light source of a laser projector. The danger of damage to the eyes or even blindness in extreme circumstances!
Do not operate the device at high humidity in the rain or in dusty environments.
Protect the device from dripping or splashing water. Do not place any liquid-filled containers near this device.

Any warranty claims are void if the warranty label is removed or tampered with in any way.

Initial operations, safety instructions

Make sure to use the correct voltage; see the information on the device & in this manual.
Make sure that the device is not connected to mains during installation.
Installation has to be done by technical experienced and qualified persons according to the safety regulations of the respective country.
Always ensure that maximum permissible exposure (MPE) is not exceeded in areas accessible to the public or members of staff.
In some countries, an additional inspection by technical control institutes could be necessary.
Connect an easily accessible inter-lock connector or circuit breaker to the projector.
The power supply should be easily accessible.
When installing the laser mount it with a minimum distance of 15 cm from walls and objects.
For safe setup e.g. on walls or ceilings please use a safety cord. The safety cord should be able to withstand tenfold the weight of the device. Please follow the accident prevention regulations of professional associations and/or comparable regulations for accident prevention.
If the device has been exposed to great temperature changes, do not switch it on immediately. Condensation (or any moisture/water formed) may damage this device.
Never use a dimmer, RC, or other electronically switched sockets. Whenever possible, do not use the laser projector together with large appliances (especially fog machines) on the same mains!
Ensure sufficient ventilation and do not place the device on any warm or heat-radiating surface. Especially the ventilation openings must not be covered!
Ensure that the device does not get overheated. Make sure that the device is not exposed to spotlights (especially moving heads). The heat of spotlights could overheat the laser in a little while and leads to a degradation of performance.
This unit is intended for indoor use only.

Working on the device

This product has no user-serviceable parts inside and should only be maintained and serviced by a qualified engineer.
Be sure that the mains plug is not connected to the power supply while installing the device.
Take off all reflecting things like rings, watches, etc. before starting to work with or at the projector.
Only use non-reflecting tools to work on the device.
Wear protective clothing (like goggles, gloves, etc.) according to laser power and wavelength of the laser.

Service notes

Moisture and heat can reduce the lifetime of the laser system dramatically and expire any warranty claim.
Quick on/off switching of this device will reduce the durability of the laser diode dramatically.
Avoid sharp knocks and shocks to this device an ensure sufficient protection during transportation. Look after your Laserworld product.
To increase the durability of your laser, protect the device against overheating:
- Always ensure sufficient ventilation.

- Check temperature after approx. 30 minutes with each new installation. If necessary install the projector at a place with different temperatures.
- Keep the device dry. Protect it from moisture, rain, and dampness.
- Switch off the device when it is not needed. Diodes are switched on and can wear out even if there is no visible la-ser output.
Please ensure the fans and heatsinks are clear from dust and debris otherwise the risk of overheating may occur. If the unit or air inlets appear to be blocked, please contact a qualified service engineer to maintain and service the product.
Always place the laser behind fog machines and hazers
Avoid direct exposure of the laser to moisture
Clean the exit window with glass cleaner from time to time
Removal of the warranty label as well as damages to the device caused by improper handling, and neglect of the safety instructions and service notes will void the warranty.

General Operation

Power
Connect the power cord 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 find the correct voltage data in the synoptical table at the end of this manual. Make sure that the device is not directed to people or inflammable objects during installation. To start the device, connect the interlock bridge, insert the key 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.
Key Switch
There is a key switch at the back of the laser system. Please plug the key into 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 sys-tem.
Fuse
There is a fuse at the back side of the device. If the fuse should blow, please exchange it with a new one. If the problems recur, please contact your dealer or the Laserworld service department.
Safety Presets
This device has an integrated Scan Safety (SFS). Is the Scan Safety active (on), single beams are prevented. If the Scan Safety is switched off, it is possible to create full-power single beams – be careful!
Operating the laser system with disabled SFS may not be allowed in some countries. Always ensure that maximum permissible exposure (MPE) is not exceeded in areas accessible to the public or members of staff.
X / Y Inversion (only standard version with ShowNET mainboard)
Use the X, and Y buttons to invert the beam’s resp. patterns on the x-axis and/or y-axis.
Colors (not available for DS-1000RGB MK4, nor lasers with FB4 mainboard)
Use the „red“, „green“ and „blue“ knobs to control the intensity per output color channel.
Modes / Functions
The different operation modes can be selected by using the DIP switches next to the ShowNET-Display (or FB4) at the back of the device. Any change of the operation mode for ShowNET devices requires a restart of the device (disconnect power and reconnect it again). Do not change any ShowNET-Display settings during operation, as random and dangerous laser output can occur.
Turn device off
To turn off the device, use the power button („OFF“), turn the key to ‚OFF‘ and disconnect the power cable from the mains.

Operation Modes

This laser system can be operated in many different operation modes. Information, videos and tutorials are available online!
