Introduction
Thank you for purchasing DT scanners from Stanwax Laser.
Your scanners have been made to a high standard using quality components and precision
manufacturing techniques. They come with an outstanding 2-year warranty and should provide
years of reliable and trouble free precision scanning. To take care of your scanners you will
need to follow a few simple rules.
•
Keep the mirrors clean – dirt build up on scanner mirrors can be burned on by laser light,
this becomes a increasing problem and the output of your laser will be affected.
•
Don’t run the scanners too hard – Your scanners will be tuned to output the ilda test
pattern at a given angle (this is normally 8 degrees). Using the scanners at high speed
with very wide scan angles will cause excessive wear on the scanners.
•
Keep the scanners and amplifier cool – The scan block should be mounted to a solid
metal base for mechanical stability and thermal conductivity. If needed heat sink
compound can be used between the block and the surface it’s mounted on.
•
The scanner amplifier should be mounted to a solid base and this can be done using the
provided heat sink as a mounting bracket.
•
Use the cables supplied – The power supply lead provided can be replaced or extended
if desired however the leads between the amplifier and the scanner must not be
modified, these are made to provide the best signal to the scanner motor and feedback
signal to the amplifier. Modifying or replacing these leads will void the warranty.
The warranty will be rendered void if the scanners have been misused or the scanners have
been tampered with. Dragon Tiger scanners come pre-tuned and should not need adjustment
by the user. If you have no experience of tuning scanners it is recommended that you do not
attempt to do this as setting the scanners up in-correctly may damage the them and will void the
warranty. The only pot you should adjust is the scale adjustment pot (see image on page 3).
Note tuning this clockwise will reduce the scan size in that axis.
