The PM26 laser control PCB is designed for small scale laser installations normally with a DPSS laser ( sometimes referred as a diode YAG or frequency doubled YAG) which are becoming very popular as the cost decreases. As the PCB can be configured with a number of different systems it is important that all local health and safety regulations are complied with by the complete system. The PM26 can hold a maximum of 512 images. These are made up from the font used by the scrolling text, patterns, single images and animations. A convert program is available to take ILDA files and compress them to the internal format. The default font and patterns can be used but all images and animations must be supplied and any copyright arranged by the customer.

The PM26 can be supplied with a number of different embedded software options depending on the system the product will be used in. The rest of this manual will describe the standard version of software. Customers who are interested in modifications should consult the sales office.
