Hello everyone,
I am in need of some assistance… I am currently finishing the build of my first laser projector, and im having some ILDA wiring issues.
I’d like to thank everyone in advance for his or her help & input!!! I have wanted to build a projector for the past 15 years, but I have only started this build last month… So im still pretty green to the specifics… because of this, I humbly ask that everyone excuse my ignorance, and answer with as much detail as possible.
My projector is pretty basic, specs are as follows:
Laser: 1 watt YAG from AXIS
Scanners: Eye Magic 30kpps from ONE STOP LASER SHOP
Control: Rick Gebhardt’s Alphalite software/hardware… (not working
properly yet, but that’s for another post!)
Housing: home made from old speaker stand column
***see attached pictures***
The current wiring scheme is as follows:
Scanner control signal:
• X+ = pin 1
• Y+ = pin 2
• X- = pin 14
• Y- = pin 15
Laser Modulation Signal:
• Mod + = pin 3
• Mod- = pin 16
110VAC Mains:
• Power enters projector via IEC connection…
• L N & G connects directly to Laser and scanner power supply’s. (post fuse and switch.)
Here are my questions:
1. On the projector’s ILDA input, should pin 25 be connected to the
110VAC Mains ground along with the laser and scanner power
supplies?
2. Does pin 25 need to be connected to anything else?
3. Are my other ILDA pin connections correct?
4. Are there any other modifications that should be made to my existing
connections?
5. If you were building this projector, what would you change or do
differently?
Thanks again for any and all input!!! - Pete Spence pspence@pmesalesgroup.com
