The LBA-C-100 is a beam analyzer designed to
handle high continuous power while measuring
beam parameters like the divergence or RGB
alignment of laser sources.
A PC interface enables to do a live measurement
while focusing or aligning the beams safely.

    Then connect the USB cable to the LBA-C-100 and to your PC, using a USB 3.0 (or over) port. Start your “Lightdiction – Beam Analyzer” software. Select the LBA-C-100 sensor from the list, then start Streaming. Lightdiction SAS LBA-C-100 User Manual March 2024 rev 1.3...

    But this also cause a little delay on the display. We recommend keeping the image stabilizer to a high value. Setting the Image Stabilizer to a low value generally cause inaccurate measures (divergence and power). Lightdiction SAS LBA-C-100 User Manual March 2024 rev 1.3...

    3 colors to optimize the alignment. The LBA-C-100 is displaying the spot pattern as if it was projected at the “infinity”. To align the RGB and B or stacks of diodes, we should see 1 single spot on the LBA-C-100, with all colors superimposed.

    “Max” value can false the results, even on other colors. Then you should measure these colors individually. Keep in mind to always select the right spot, even when using the power measurement. Lightdiction SAS LBA-C-100 User Manual March 2024 rev 1.3...

    This can also be used to measure other wavelengths than RGB (Yellow, orange, cyan, purple…). Select the wavelength you want to calibrate, and click on “Calibrate xxx”. It will display a window explaining the calibration process. Click on OK when you are ready. Lightdiction SAS LBA-C-100 User Manual March 2024 rev 1.3...

    III. PRECAUTIONS AND RECOMMANDATIONS ON USE • Do not put the laser to the maximum power if the LBA-C-100 is not correctly placed in front of the laser projector (if the 9-spot pattern cannot be seen). • Check that the input lens is clean before shooting high power lasers through it, or it may burn the lens.
