Building Duel Scanners & ILDA?

[lamborgini8]

Does anyone know how this is done? How can I build a duel scanner with 2 sets of galvos?

I like the idea of having two seperate sets on each side of the scanner but how are they made? I am guessing you can't just run two sets of galvos from the same amp so how would I wire them up and keep them working in perfect synk with each other?

Also how would ILDA work with this? I have never found a duel scanner with ILDA but wouldn't it be cool to be able to controll both sets? You could easily do more complex animations that way like one side scanning a car while the other side creates a background.

Wire it up as two single ILDA connected scanners and make a switch that ties the X/Y/R/G/B from one of the ILDA-connectors to both pairs of scanners and laser drivers.
Add an inversion switch to the X/Y of one scanner so that you can make them work in mirror when you are scanning beamshows, that looks cool!

Awesome

So I basically wire them up as two seperate ones but let the ILDA think its just one so it runs them together?

Think thats just made my project list haha. What about if I wanted DMX only though?

I can get around it by changing my computers IP but I would rather not risk it.
