8. Operation Modes

(Firmware version: 20190520x - Admin tool: v1.33)
This laser system can be operated in many different operation modes. It is possible to
directly control the laser system via computer and laser show software as well as to trig-
ger effects stored to the internal SD card via ArtNet consoles or in stand-alone mode.
1. Download admin tool
For testing the show laser system and for other purposes, like uploading ILDA files to the
integrated SD card, download the admin tool here:
https://www.laserworld.com/shownet_mainboard
Open the „ShowNET-Admin_Tool.exe" whenever this manual refers to the admin
tool.
IMPORTANT: It's not possible to access the admin tool, when you are accessing the laser
system via software (Showeditor, Showcontroller, etc.). When opening the admin tool
while accessing the laser system in a non-direct-control operation mode, the admin tool
asks to press on a button to switch to network mode for manual control.
2. Direct computer control
a) ILDA control via ILDA streaming
Connect the laser system to an external control interface (DAC; sold seperately) by using
an Ethernet cable (RJ45 software cable; included in delivery). Then connect the external
interface to your laser show processing system.
As this laser system has an integrated DAC interface as mainboard (ShowNET) it is pos-
sible to directly control the laser via LAN without the need of ILDA cables or an external
DAC interface.
b) Direct operation via laser show software, with LAN connection
