Introduction The Laser Aiming Device (LAD ) is available for installation on Technobeam, Studio Spot 250 and Studio Color 250 fixtures from High End Systems. The LAD allows you to position the light beam during daylight or high ambient light conditions. With this additional flexibility, you can set up or verify the fixture s pan/tilt positions in conditions that would otherwise make beam positioning difficult or impossible. Specifications Class 3A Laser Product Beam divergence angle: 0.2mRad to 0.3mRad Maximum output (continuous): 4.95mW at 630-650nm Maximum output (pulsed): <2.5mW Pulse modulation: 4.25Hz to 255Hz @ 50% duty cycle Pulse duration: 1.96ms to 117ms Pulse energy: 9.8µJ to 585µJ Recommended Laser Operation The most effective and efficient way to use the Laser Aiming Device is with the fixture s lamp off and dim flags (shutter) closed since: The higher the temperature, the shorter the life of the laser aiming device. Keeping the lamp off minimizes the temperature inside the fixture, extending the life of the laser. The higher the temperature, the lower the laser brightness. If the fixture operates (with the lamp on) at 40 C (104 F) for example, laser power will be decreased by about 25%. Technobeam fixtures are designed so the laser beam can exit the fixture with the dim flags (shutters) closed or completely open. Certain intermediate dim flag positions partially block the laser beam. 6 LAD Module Installation Instructions

Required Documentation Before continuing, make sure you have the fixture s User Manual for important information not contained in this manual. Installer Qualifications Only qualified and trained employees approved by a laser safety officer should be assigned to install, adjust and operate the laser equipment. The training should include, but is not limited to: familiarization with system operating procedures the proper use of hazard control procedures, warning signs, etc. the need for personal protection accident reporting procedures bioeffects of the laser upon the eye and the skin Safety Anytime you use the LAD, you should follow the safety precautions listed below: Caution: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure. Using the Laser Aiming Device with any fixture other than Technobeam, Studio Spot 250 or Studio Color 250 fixtures may result in damage to both the laser and the fixture as well as exposure to laser radiation. Do not point the laser at an audience. Make sure that the laser beam is never directed at mirror-like (specular) surfaces (most importantly, at flat mirror-like surfaces). When not in use, store the laser (fixture) in a location accessible only to authorized personnel. Post a standard laser warning sign to mark areas where this product is used. LAD Module Installation Instructions 7

Caution: Do not stare directly into the beam and do not view the beam with optical instruments. Be certain to apply and do not remove the labels shown in Figure 1.

Aligning the Laser The ideal position of the laser from the center of a perfectly round light beam is 3.5 in (8.9 cm) for Studio Color 250, 3.3 in (8.4 cm) for Studio Spot 250 and 2 in (5 cm) for Technobeam fixtures. Aligning the laser is not required for it to function properly. The requirements of the application determine how fine an adjustment is needed. Alignment Procedure The alignment procedure that follows takes advantage of High End Systems fixtures built-in program storage capability to turn on the laser. The laser can also be turned on using a DMX controller. To prepare the fixture for laser alignment: 1. Follow the instructions in the fixture s User Manual to select a voltage setting and install a power cord cap, if you have not already done so. 2. Physically orient the fixture at least 10 ft (3 m) from a white wall (the farther from the wall, the more accurate the positioning will be). For proper alignment, the fixture must be oriented directly at the wall, not at an angle. 3. Connect the fixture to an appropriately-rated power outlet. You will hear sounds as wheels and motors seek their home positions; this is normal. 4. When the fixture has finished homing, press and hold the <Menu> key until the LED display reads ADDR. To turn the lamp ON: 5. Use the <Up> and <Down> arrow keys to navigate to the TEST menu. 6. Press <Enter>, then use the <Up> and <Down> arrow keys to navigate to the LAMP option. 7. Press <Enter>, then use the <Up> and <Down> arrow keys to select a value of ON. LAD Module Installation Instructions 19

8. Press <Enter>; the lamp should now be on (although you will not be able to tell if the dim flags are closed). If the beam projected on the wall is bright white and a round shape, go to Step 32 on page 22. If not, continue with the next step to adjust the beam s brightness, shape and/or focus using the fixture s built-in programming menu. To access the fixture s built-in programming menu: 9. Keep pressing the <Menu> key until the ADDR menu is displayed. 10. Use the <Up> and <Down> arrow keys to navigate to the PRST menu. 11.

The EDIT option allows you to create or edit up to eight scenes which are stored in the fixture s onboard memory. 12. Press <Enter>. Use the <Up> and <Down> arrow keys to select the scene number of an unprogrammed scene. For example, selecting SCN2 means you will edit scene number 2. 13. Press <Enter> to begin editing the scene you selected. If you selected an unprogrammed scene, go to Step 16. If you selected a programmed scene, you need to deprogram the scene in order to make sure all constructs are set to default values. This is necessary only if all eight scenes are already programmed. To deprogram a scene: 14. Use the <Up> and <Down> arrow keys to navigate to the ZERO option. 15. Press <Enter>; you will be required to confirm the action by pressing <Enter> again. If the beam is bright white, go to Step 22. If not, continue with the next step. To open the Shutter and adjust beam brightness: 16. Use the <Up> and <Down> arrow keys to navigate to the SHUT option. 20 LAD Module Installation Instructions

17. Press <Enter>, then use the <Up> and <Down> arrow keys to select a value of OPEN. 18. Press <Enter> to accept your selection. 19. Use the <Up> and <Down> arrow keys to navigate to the DIM option. 20. Press <Enter>, then use the <Up> and <Down> arrow keys to select a value of D255 (full bright). 21. Press <Enter> to accept your selection. You should now see the white, round shape of the beam projected onto the wall or white surface. If the beam is round (not oval) in shape, go to Step 28. If not, continue with the next step. To adjust the beam shape and focus: 22. Use the <Up> and <Down> arrow keys to navigate to the TILT option. 23. Press <Enter>, then use the <Up> and <Down> arrow keys to adjust the mirror position until the beam is round. 24. Press <Enter> to accept your selection. 25. If the beam needs further adjustment, use the <Up> and <Down> arrow keys to navigate to the PAN option. 26. Press <Enter>, then use the <Up> and <Down> arrow keys to adjust the mirror position. 27. Press <Enter> to accept your selection. Continue adjusting the mirror using PAN and TILT until the beam is as round as possible. If the beam is in sharp focus, go to Step 32. If not, continue with next step. To adjust beam focus: 28. Use the <Up> and <Down> arrow keys to navigate to the FCUS option. 29. Press <Enter>, then use the <Up> and <Down> arrow keys to focus on the edge of the beam until it is sharp. LAD Module Installation Instructions 21

30. Continue moving the fixture and focusing on the edge of the beam until the beam is as round as possible, and sharply in focus. 31. When you have focused the beam, press <Enter>. To establish ideal laser position in the beam: 32.

To adjust the laser: 45. Use the three alignment screws shown in Figure 21 to adjust the laser. Alignment screws 1 and 3 move the laser horizontally, and screw 2 moves the laser vertically. Technobeam fixture 2 Studio 250 Series fixture 1 3 Figure 21 Laser adjustment screws Adjust the position of the laser so that it is no more than the distance from the center of the light beam you marked for your fixture in Step 32. 46. After you tighten/loosen each screw, release pressure from the screwdriver before looking at the laser position on the wall; having pressure on the screw can change the laser s position. Do not force the screws or fully tighten them because the ends of the screws might interfere with the dim flags. If you have difficulty aligning the laser or turning the screws, loosen all three screws and start over. Continue adjusting the laser position until it meets the level of accuracy for your needs. 47. Close the fixture Technobeam fixture: replace the access door and tighten the retaining screw. Studio250 Series fixture: replace the bezel and secure the clamps on each side. 24 LAD Module Installation Instructions

Troubleshooting Table 1 LAD Troubleshooting Problem Probable Cause Solution The laser gradually loses power. The laser is out of alignment. The emission indicator LED is off and the laser is off. The emission indicator LED is on, but the laser is off. The laser is on, but the emission indicator LED is off. Over time, the laser will lose power until it dims out entirely. The laser circuit board is not receiving power. The LAD is not receiving power. The emission indicator LED is faulty. Contact High End Systems customer service to replace the LAD (see Contacting High End Systems on page 3). Realign the laser (see Alignment Procedure on page 19). Remove the fixture s bezel or access door and verify that the cable labeled LAD is connected to the fixture s circuit board. Replace the bezel or access door and use your DMX controller (consult the fixture s User Manual) or the fixture s menu system to access the laser (see To turn the laser ON: on page 23). If the LED and laser are still not functioning, contact High End Systems customer service (see Contacting High End Systems on page 3). Remove the fixture s bezel or access door and verify that the 2-pin cable labeled LAD is connected to the fixture s circuit board and that the 3-pin cable from the LAD module is connected to the 3-pin socket on the LAD circuit board. Replace the bezel or access door and use your DMX controller or the fixture s menu systems to access the laser. If the laser is still not functioning, contact High End Systems customer service (see Contacting High End Systems on page 3).
