Laser Operation / Control Modes

A	Auto	Plays back built in patterns back-to-back at preset intervals. Most models with Auto Mode allow daisy chaining identical models in this mode for synchronized playback. *
M	Music	Plays back built in patterns back-to-back to the beat of music picked up by an internal microphone. Most models with Music Mode allow daisy chaining identical models in this mode for synchronized playback. *
I	ILDA	ILDA is the standard for professional laser control using PC software. It implements a special DB25 cable and connector that allows direct communication between laser software and the laser projectors. In this mode the software performs all calculations and generates the laser patterns, colors sizes etc ﬁ rst on the PC and then sends as analog data down the ILDA cable to the laser projector.
D W	DMX Wireless DMX	Plays back built in patterns via the standard lighting protocol, DMX. This type of control allows for tweaking of the individual built-in patterns and their parameters (color, position, speeds, etc) using standard DMX cables.
N	Network ILDA	Models including this feature use an Ethernet connector that accepts the ILDA signal. This gives the freedom to use standard Ethernet cables to connect your lasers and PCs running Network-ILDA capable software. Often this also results in higher attainable scan rates.
SD	SD Card	Models including this feature allow playback of laser shows directly from an SD card eliminating the need for direct DMX or ILDA connection. This is often used for laser billboards and stand-alone lasers that repeat the same output over and over. *

* it is important to note that Auto, Music or SD Card modes can be used without any type of external control software. For this reason, the FDA requires any laser operator that implements one of these modes in the United States to have a remote interlock at the control booth. This is typically a hardwired e-stop box.
