What does the stanwax's ikda gem extactly do?

[borgqueenx]

I might buy one for alignment ect...if it works the way i want to.

Is it a device thats plugged into the projector by ilda cable? And then powered from ac and it runs? If yes? Does it only project a square in full 5v -0v signal and laser colors can be turned off or mixed?

Thanks.

Yes.

And then powered from ac and it runs?

Requires 5V dc at <5mA and can be supplied by USB, power adapter OR from an ILDA DAC e.g. FB3 (though this only when laser output is enabled in the software).

If yes? Does it only project a square in full 5v -0v signal...

Your question is unclear.

...and laser colors can be turned off or mixed?

"The board outputs either a full 5V or a variable level (0-5V) to the modulation signal lines (up to 6 lines)"

Thanks i meant the 6 lines...they are maybe 3 with me? 445nm 638nm and 532nm?
I mean possible to adjust the output of those 3 to make different colors...
And it only makes a square?

I suggest having a look at the manual - seems pretty detailed.

..I hear they are also *excellent* for preventing the accidental yanking of-ones projector off the kitchen-table onto the floor...

Hey Borg! You can't go wrong with this piece of equipment.
It's basically like the hammer in a carpenters toolbox, once you got it, you won't regret it.
