beamZ Pro Pandora 1600 - 1.6W Professional TTL RGB Laser
The beamZ Pro Pandora 1600 is a professional laser system designed to deliver a high-impact visual spectacle in any environment. With a guaranteed power of 1300mW and a maximum output of 1600mW, this system combines the intensity of its three laser diodes (Red, Green, and Blue) to project graphics and light beams with exceptional brilliance. It is the perfect tool for permanent installations in clubs, discos, corporate events, and for mobile productions that demand reliability and superior performance.
The core of the Pandora 1600 is its TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) color modulation system. This technology allows each color diode to be switched on or off independently, generating seven pure and vibrant colors: red, green, blue, cyan, magenta, yellow, and white. Combined with its high-speed optical graphics scanner of 30,000 points per second (30Kpps), the Pandora 1600 is capable of tracing complex patterns, fluid animations, and logos with extraordinary precision and sharpness, transforming any surface into a dynamic canvas.
Versatility of control is one of its strongest points. Professionals can take advantage of the ILDA port to connect the laser to a computer and use specialized software to design and run custom shows without creative limitations. Furthermore, its complete DMX integration, with 12- or 23-channel modes, allows comprehensive control of all parameters from a standard lighting console. For more straightforward use, the standalone (with pre-programmed shows) and sound-activated modes offer plug-and-play operation that reacts intelligently to the beat of the music.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does "TTL modulation" mean?
- TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) means that each laser diode (red, green, and blue) has only two states: fully on or fully off. By combining these three diodes, seven distinct colors (red, green, blue, cyan, magenta, yellow, and white) can be created at their maximum intensity. Unlike analog modulation, it does not allow for the dimming of individual colors to create wider palettes.
- Do I need special software to use ILDA control?
- Yes. To use the ILDA connection, you need a computer with compatible laser control software (such as Pangolin QuickShow or similar) and a DAC (Digital-to-Analog Converter) hardware interface. The laser's DB25 ILDA port connects to this interface, which in turn connects to the computer.
- Is it mandatory to use a smoke machine?
- To visualize the beams and aerial effects in space, the use of a smoke machine or, preferably, a fog machine (hazer) is essential. Without particles in the air, the laser projections will only be visible on the surfaces they hit (walls, ceilings, etc.).
- What is the difference between 12 and 23 channel DMX modes?
- The 23-channel mode offers much more detailed control over laser parameters, allowing individual adjustment of patterns, rotation, size, movement, color, and other effects. The 12-channel mode provides more simplified control, ideal for quick integration into lighting setups or when a limited number of channels are available on the DMX controller.
