new projectors: 2x 1W green laser

[stanwax]

Just as a matter of record, its worth publishing the proceedure for this...

To centre the scanners in x and y axis
1/ with power to the projector off disconnect the x & y signal inputs to the scanner drivers.
2/ loosen the bolts in the scanblock that pinch the housing around the scanner - do this for whichever axis needs adjustment - the scanner should move smoothly & easily but not be too sloppy in the mount. For DT scanners a 3mm allen key will be needed.
3/ power up the projector - the scanners will find thier 'home' centred position
4/ output some content at low power so the laser(s) light up
5/ gently rotate the scanner - avoiding touching the electrical connections on the pcb - until the beam is exiting square to the case in the required axis
6/hold the scanner while tightening up the bolt
7/power off and re-connect the signal inputs

Done!

done

building in progres... i have fixed the cables, i'm waiting for my grandad makes me 2 piece for mouting the 8cm fans...

i have a question: when i power on the projector there is a little peack of current... is nice to solder a capacitor on AC Connector? what kind of capacitor?

thanks

[stanwax]

Lorenzo the peak of current is the inrush of current into the switch mode power supplies, my new ilda interface board will take care of that for you - amongst many other helpful features

proud to present the 1st projector












now i'm looking around for 2 of this PC fan covers, i will mount them with air filter

Don't bother with trying to find filters for the metal grilles, they'll never fit right. You can just get some of these, which clip on tight but are easily removed for cleaning.
