To operate the laser system with an external ILDA interface (DAC), e.g. a USB interface like an FB3, the settings that are needed depend on the type of mainboard that is inside the laser system. Select the appropriate mainboard type that matches the laser to get further instructions:
Laser system with ShowNET Mainboard -> use raw ILDA control
Valid for laser systems with DIP-switch board or display
Connect the external ILDA interface (DAC) to the laser system using an ILDA cable. Plug the cable into the "ILDA IN" port at the back side of the laser system:
The laser automatically recognizes that there is an ILDA device attached and prioritizes its signal over the internal control modes.
Remember: As long as an external ILDA interface is connected to the laser, the internal operation modes of the ShowNET are disabled.
Laser system with Pangolin FB4 Mainboard -> use raw ILDA control
