At 3:10 I notice you took the hook clamp and bolted it to the bracket through where the fastening wingnut is supposed to go. Is that legal out your way? Just genuinely curious...
That's how this particular clamp is designed to work....not sure what you see wrong? The clamp in question is definitely more of a DJ-grade clamp, I usually use a regular c-clamp or similar on professional rigs.
The clamp does look weird and inverted but it wouldn't work the other way arround. I would certainly avoid these clamps for better C-Clamps tho as these tend to leave marks before being secured to any kind of poles 😅
Modulaser and LaserOS are free downloads. But, regardless of the software, you will still need an ILDA DAC to convert digital USB or Ethernet from the computer to the projector's analog DB25 ILDA input port. The software and ILDA DAC hardware must be compatible. ILDA DACs range between $100 & $400. Beware of the RJ45 connectors on some Chinese projectors. My 1st pair were NOT Ethernet inputs. They required a DB25 to RJ45 adapter to be connected to whatever ILDA standard DAC that's being used, then a CAT5 cable to run the analog signals to the projector's RJ45 port. There are also internal Pangolin FB4 DACs, which have RJ45 Ethernet input ports, as well. But, an internal FB4 will increase the projector's price by ~ $500. Buyers beware.
@@jhrlasers I am new to the game and thought the same... I don't understand why the new LaserCube Pro decided to implement this crap and not use the Ethernet instead. What could the protocol be?
@@microfx ah oke... so it seems like my whole thread of explanation for your questions just somehow had not been posted... Yeah casual youtube commentary things lol..
Any good tutorials out there? Our company just got a bunch of lasers & I need to figure out the controling part. They support dmx but its weird and complicated for that 😅
I was looking at an ILDA laser that also has a SD card, wondering if I can create patterns in software to put on sdcard without using a ILDA interface?
No. If you want two different lasers to do two different shows, you need two ILDA interfaces. It doesn't work like DMX where you can address different fixtures through one interface.
It is, I think it might technically be in beta, but you can control the networked ones via DMX (it does have to be one of the networked lasercubes, though)
Nearly every OTC laser nowadays has DMX in/out to control ILDA standard laser images and effects, which are either stored inside the projector's 'showcard' or stored on uSD, which is read by the projector's showcard. The manufacturers of the projectors pre-program generic 'party' images on their showcards. ILDA images and laser content can be downloaded from online libraries.
