-Scanguard will only work if the projector manufacturer has provided the necessary scanner feedback signals, and connected them internally to the FB4. If these have not been implemented, the Scanguard will not function; at best if you try to enable it, it may appear to switch the beam off occasionally. Kvant is one of the manufacturers that have confirmed to me that they have implemented the feedback signals necessary for Scanguard to operate. +[[hardware:fb4:manual#x-y_scanner_position_feedback_input|Scanguard will only work if the projector manufacturer has provided the necessary scanner feedback signals, and connected them internally to the FB4]].

 Because configuring Scanguard is setting up a safety control, and it’s quite possible to put people’s eyesight at risk if things are not configured correctly. You should therefore have a good understanding of exposure levels and understand the significance of properties such as angular velocity, peak irradiance. If you are at all unsure that an exposure level is safe, don’t aim the laser effect at people. Learn how to set up the FB4 safeguard features on our Audience Scanning for Laser Show Designer’s Workshop. Because configuring Scanguard is setting up a safety control, and it’s quite possible to put people’s eyesight at risk if things are not configured correctly.
