The laser mode requires an external laser source (sold separately). This mode
is based on the existence of a laser beam fed to the optical receiver of the
Miops Smart. It will trigger your camera or flash unit whenever the beam is
broken. You can use a regular laser pen or pointer as the laser source. The
color of the laser does not make any difference.
WARNING: Please take every possible safety caution while you are working
with a laser. Wear a safety goggle all the time. Never point the laser to your
eyes, other people and animals.
The laser mode requires a consistent laser beam to be fed to the optical
receiver of the MIOPS Smart. It is located on the front face of the device. The
receiver is behind a transparent window and there is an optical lens on the
window. The lens will help to focus the laser beam to the receiver. The laser
beam must hit the lens on the window. A slight movement of the laser source
can move the beam away from the receiver, so make sure that both the laser
source and the Miops Smart are firmly mounted on a steady stand.
After you have firmly mounted the laser source and the Miops Smart, turn the
device on and switch to the laser mode. If the laser beam is correctly aligned
to the receiver, you should see the “LM” sign at the top right corner of the
screen. LM stands for Laser Matched. Seeing a constant LM sign on the screen
is the first condition of the laser mode. If you see the LM sign blinking, this
• The power of the laser beam might be just about the threshold
value. You can try to lower the “threshold” value from the
parameters of the laser mode. You can also try to shorten the
distance between the laser source and the Miops Smart. The
density of the laser beam will decrease due to scattering, as the
beam reaches further away from the source. Moving the laser
source closer to the Miops Smart can solve the problem. Please
note that, decreasing the threshold value may cause false
triggering because of environment light. If you are working
outdoors and during day time, a certain threshold value would be
