3. SETUP Lamp You will need to install a lamp prior to the initial operation of the fixture. A 150W HTI lamp is included. Warning! When replacing the lamp, please wait 15 minutes after powering down to allow the unit to cool down! Always disconnect from main power prior to lamp replacement. Do not touch the envelope (glass area) of the bulb with bare hands. If this happens, clean the lamp with alcohol and wipe it with a lint free cloth before installation. LA M P IN STA LLA T ION 1.
LA MP ALIGN M ENT HOW- TO Often, after a new installation of a lamp, you will find that there is an uneven field of light or what is referred A to as a hot spot. This is due to the most intense point B of the lamp source not being positioned optimally S2 within the reflector. C There are three lamp alignment screws provided at the base of the projector head. Turning these screws allow you to optimize the projection quality of the spot as well as the overall intensity of the beam.
Replacing Gobos 1) Remove the four screws indicated in figure A to remove the bottom of the Figure A head. 2) Remove the glue from the gobo using tweezers. 3) Remove the retaining spring from the gobo (figure B). 4) Remove the existing gobo, and replace with a new gobo. 5) Replace the retaining spring. 6) If desired, add three small dabs of high-temperature silicone glue to the Figure B retaining spring. 7) Repeat steps 4-6 as many times as necessary to replace all desired gobos.
D MX DA TA CAB LE Use a Belden© 9841 or equivalent cable which meets the specifications for EIA RS-485 applications. Standard microphone cables cannot transmit DMX data reliably over long distances. The cable will have the following characteristics: 2-conductor twisted pair plus a shield Maximum capacitance between conductors – 30 pF/ft. Maximum capacitance between conductor and shield – 55 pF/ft. Maximum resistance of 20 ohms / 1000 ft.
Setting up a DMX Serial Data Link Universal DMX Controller 1. Connect the (male) 3 pin connector side of the DMX cable to the output (female) 3 pin connector of the controller. 2. Connect the end of the cable coming from the controller which will have a (female) 3 pin connector to the input connector of the next fixture consisting of a (male) 3 pin connector. 3. Then, proceed to connect from the output as stated above to the input of the following fixture and so on.
Mounting ORIENTATION This fixture may be mounted in any position provided there is adequate room for ventilation. R IG G IN G Hanging Clamp It is important never to obstruct the fan or vents pathway. Mount the fixture using, a suitable “C” or “O” type clamp. Adjust the angle of the fixture by loosening both knobs and tilting the fixture. After finding the desired position, retighten both knobs.

Master/Slave Mode (Master Sound, Master Auto): This mode will allow you to link up to 32 units together without a controller. 1) Use standard DMX cables to daisy chain your units together via the DMX connector on the rear of the units. For longer cable runs we suggest a terminator at the last fixture. For more information about terminators, see page 10. 2) Choose a unit to function as the Master. This unit must be the first unit in the line. 3) Press the

APPENDIX DMX Primer There are 512 channels in a DMX-512 connection. Channels may be assigned in any manner. A fixture capable of receiving DMX 512 will require one or a number of sequential channels.
General Maintenance To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear fixtures should be cleaned frequently. Usage and environment are contributing factors in determining frequency. As a general rule, fixtures should be cleaned at least twice a month. Dust build up reduces light output performance and can cause overheating. This can lead to reduced lamp life and increased mechanical wear. Be sure to power off fixture before conducting maintenance. Unplug fixture from power.
