概述最重要的特性
电子遮罩-激光安全性能的全新维度
通过这个新的安全技术,客户可以使用图像编辑器来软定义激光器投射范围中的安
全区域。
这个编辑器的用法类似于图形编辑中的vector功能,它允许用户创造一个几何形的
遮罩层。
有2中不同的遮罩功能可供使用
1. 电子遮罩:
这个重要的功能可以限制激光在指定区域内的投射。每个由编辑器中创建的独立电
子遮罩层的光束强度都能在0%-100%之中调整。这样就能正确的将指定范围内的光
学仪器正确的保护起来(激光投影机,摄像机)。
这种遮罩的最大优点是,这是在激光器中的内部设置。而相比在控制系统中制造一
个遮罩层,一些错误的编程会使其失效。
2. 安全遮罩:
为了安全起见,每台激光器都装备了一个振镜安全回路来保护观众。这种机制决定了振镜水平和垂直光束的偏转速度,然后用此速度来与预置的最小速度进行比较。
I比如,当光束扫描速度低于最小值或者光束完全静止时,这种安全机制就会阻断激光。
为了让所有处于投射范围内的观众不为静止的激光空间效果而冒险,比如当光束处于天花板下方时,使用“安全遮罩”功能来定义几个静止光束可能出现的区域,如图(图中只定义了一个矩形的安全区域)。
This intuitive software allows monitoring important functions of the laser unit and adjusting operating parameters.
The LA-Toolbox software is available as PC and Mac version. Both versions are included with every shipment and are additionally available in the → Costumer Area of our website.
Features
One Start Screen for all Connected Projectors

All functions and parameters / diagnosis of multiple laser projectors can be controlled by one "LA Toolbox" via ethernet.
For laser safety the 'Disable All' button is integrated to the user interface. The laser output for all connected laser devices is switched off immediately when clicking this button.
Clearly arranged interface to control each projector

For PHAENON X projectors the full functionality of the software is available.
For all "Basic" projectors (BLITZ, BLIZZARD, PHAENON) less functions are available.
Comprehensive Projection Settings
For all adjustments of the projection an internal test picture can be used in the projection menu.
All settings concerning the projection
- horizontal, vertical size
- inversion
- position offset
- keystone correction and
- rotation
can be exactly adjusted with sliders in the clearly laid out "Projection" menu and saved in 3 different transformation settings.
Comfortable Timer Setting
A timer can be used to switch the state of the laser at a predefined time. For instance the laser can switch from "Run" to "Standby" mode.
Drop down menus are used to set the state which the laser is to switch to when a timer triggers as well as the date or date range (from/to), time of day and day of the week.
Up to 6 timers can be configured.
ILDA Settings
All 6 ILDA channels are scalable from 0% to 100% to achieve the best possible white balance. Up to 4 color settings can be saved and called up.
The ILDA signals 'Interlock' and 'Intensity' are evaluated.
State Settings
Four laser statuses can be selected for laser operation:
"Shutdown" I "Standby" I "Test 10%" I "Run".
In the "Shutdown" mode the drivers are deactivated and the temperature control is inactive. This saves considerable amounts of energy.
In "Standby" there is no current to the laser sources, which also saves energy. However, in contrast to "Shutdown" their operating temperature is maintained. This has the advantage that switching from "Standby" to "Run" is possible much more quickly.
One advantageous option is the automatic "Shutdown" resp. "Standby" function. This switches the laser into the corresponding operating mode in case no ILDA signal is present for a specific adjustable period of time (for instance at the end of a show).
The device will use less electricity and cool off better.
Climate State
Ambient temperature, heat sink temperature, internal and dew point temperature, relative humidity as well as fan voltage are clearly displayed.
Detailed Information Concerning the Internal Laser Sources
The states of all laser sources can be monitored, the power can be scaled and the behavior of the laser with a small modulation signal can be adapted slightly through the "Bias Offset". This setting allows the best possible adjustment of the effective soft blanking of the Lasergraph DSP.
Electronic Masking - A New Dimension of Laser Safety
With this new safety technology we give users the option to use a graphics editor to flexibly define protected areas in a laser projection.
The editor can be used in way similar to a vector based graphics program to create a mask from geometric shapes (polygons, circles and rectangles). Safety parameters can then be defined individually for each of these shapes.
Two different mask functions are available:
1. Electronic Mask

This important function allows limiting the laser output for certain areas. The intensity of the laser beam can be adjusted in a range from 0% to 100% for each individual shape created with the editor. This makes it possible to correctly protect specific scanning areas such as the auditorium or sectors with optical equipment (video beamers, cameras).
The big advantage of this mask, which is configured in the projector, compared to a mask generated in the show controller is the fact that programming errors which may occur when a show is edited will not disable the mask.
2. Safety Mask

For safety reasons every laser projector is equipped with a scanner safety circuit to protect the audience. This mechanism determines the sum of the scanner velocities for the horizontal and vertical deflection of the beam and compares this to the predefined minimum speed.
In case the beam velocity is below the minimum or if the beam is completely motionless this safety mechanism will block the laser beam.
For allowing beam effects with a stationary beam anyway in areas where the audience is not at risk, for instance below the ceiling, the "Safety Mask" can be used to graphically define several areas where a static beam will be possible, see picture. (Up to now only one rectangular safety area could be defined.)
Adjustable Beam Superposition

The Phaenon X laser projectors are equipped with a motorized beam adjustment for superposing the beams. This internal component allows an easy and comfortable adjustment of the beam superposition.
This is a big advantage of the Phaenon X projectors which users will certainly appreciate.
The position of the individual beams can change over time when the projectors are frequently transported, set up and taken down again. Until now the beams could only be adjusted using the small adjustment screws on the side of the device. In everyday use the projectors are often already installed in a stage setup, e.g. attached to a truss high up, when the laser is turned on and the beam misalignment is discovered. This used to mean the laser had to be taken down again for adjustment. This considerable effort is no longer necessary using the "Beam Adjust" of the LA Toolbox Software.
WLAN and LAN

PHAENON X laser projectors can be connected to LAN (Ethernet) or WLAN and remote controlled using LA Toolbox.
DMX Support

An optionally integrated grating module can be controlled over DMX or manually with the "Grating Wheel Settings". Up to 4 settings can be saved.
The DMX base address can easily be configured using the software.
