LASER SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
According to the EN 60825-1:1994 + A1:2002 + A2:2002 regulations, this laser falls under the
classification 3B. Direct eye exposure can be dangerous.
DANGER: LASER RADIATION !
Avoid direct eye exposure! Laser radiation can cause eye damage
and/or skin damage. All protective measures for a safe operation of
this laser must be applied.
This product is a so-called show laser, emitting radiation with a wavelength spectrum between 400 and
700 nm and producing lighting effects for shows.
Due to the construction of this laser, the beam is moved so fast, that it can only hit the eye very short. This
is why the use of this laser for a Laser-Light-Show can be regarded as save.
Never direct the laser beam to people or animals and never leave this device running unattended.
This laser may only be used for shows. The operation of a class 3B show laser is only allowed if the
operation is controlled by a skilled and well-trained operator.
Depending on the classification, operating a laser product can produce laser radiation that may cause
permanent eye damage and/or skin damage. The legal instructions for using a laser product vary from
country to country. The user must always inform himself on the legal instructions valid in his country and
apply them to his situation.
Please note that JB SYSTEMS cannot be made liable for damages caused by incorrect installations and
unskilled operation!

7. DISPLAY: shows the selected DMX address when the unit is in DMX-mode. Shows 3 horizontal lines
when the unit is in stand-alone mode.
8. DIP-SWITCHES: switches 1~8 are used to set the DMX address between 000 and 255. Switch 9 is not
used and switch 10 is used to select stand-alone or DMX mode.
9. AUTO/MUSIC SWITCH: when the unit is used in stand-alone mode, this switch sets the laser in music
mode (patterns move to the rhythm of the beat) or auto mode (patterns move automatically)
10. SAFETY EYE: used to attach a safety cable when the unit is rigged (see paragraph "overhead rigging"
11. MUSIC INPUT SENSITIVITY: This potentiometer is used to adjust the music input sensitivity. Turn the
potentiometer until the laser works in sync with the music.
12. COOLING FAN: used to cool the components inside the enclosure. Make sure to never cover this fan
outlet!
13. POWER LED: indicates that the unit is switched on.
14. SOUND LED: flashes to the sound of the music detected by the internal microphone.
15. HANGING BRACKET: with 2 knobs on both sides to fasten the unit and a mounting hole to fix a
mounting hook.
16. LASER OUTPUT: Here the laser beam leaves the enclosure, make sure to NEVER look inside the unit
through this opening while the laser effect is switched on!
17. WARNING LABEL: "Caution – Class 3B laser. Laser Radiation when open. Avoid exposure to beam."
18. WARNING LABEL: "Laser Aperture"
19. LASER WARNING SIGN: warns against a potentially dangerous laser when not used by skilled

OVERHEAD RIGGING
Important: The installation must be carried out by qualified service personal only. Improper
installation can result in serious injuries and/or damage to property. Overhead rigging requires
extensive experience! Working load limits should be respected, certified installation materials
should be used, the installed device should be inspected regularly for safety.
Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during rigging, de-rigging
and servicing.
Locate the fixture in a well ventilated spot, far away from any flammable materials and/or liquids. The
fixture must be fixed at least 50cm from surrounding walls.
The device should be installed out of reach of people and outside areas where persons may walk by or be
seated.
Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10times the device's
weight.
