Switch 10 has to be ON (up)
for DMX mode
There are two DMX / ArtNet configuration modes:
(1) DJ Mode & (2) Professional Mode.
The DJ mode is more basic and comes with some pre-configured automations. It is sui-
table for most users.
The Professional mode comes with some advanced features and requires deeper know-
ledge of DMX / ArtNet to be handled properly.
DJ mode is the standard option. To use the Professional mode, open the admin tool and
navigate to the tab ‚Settings‘.
Change the option.
Click on ‚Store Data‘ to save your changes. Click on ‚OK‘ twice and wait until another win-
dow opens that asks to restart the ILDA interface. To do so, switch the laser system off
and on again.
(1) DJ Mode
To get laser output, DMX channel 1 needs to have a value greater than 0 (recommended
64 to 192 as channel 1 is regulating laser intensity from 0% up to 100%.)
