Inserting Louver or Gel Frame The Imara includes spring loaded accessory holders and two channels to hold the Gel Frame and Honeycomb Louver. Place the long edge of the Gel Frame Louver into the lower channel. Press down on the left and right corners and slip the upper edge into the upper channel.
Applying Gel to Frame Option 1 – The Gel Frame comes with Gel Clips. Cut the gel to size and use the Clips to fasten the gel to the Frame. Note: It is recommended to attach one clip on all four sides and two clips near all four corners of the Gel Frame. Option 2 – Apply transfer tape directly to the Gel Frame. The clips are not necessary when taping the gel. Mounting Barndoors Side Doors Position the Side barndoors alongside the side edge of the fixture.
Hinge Tension Adjustment Adjust the hinge tension with a Phillips head screwdriver. Imara Yoke Mount MTP-I80 The Yoke has a ½” hole to accept industry standard mounting hardware. The Imara S10 and S6 Yoke Mount can mount to a stand or hang from a studio grid via a standard junior pin or Junior Pin Assembly for Yoke (MTP-I80), sold separately. Note: Loop the safety chain around the yoke. The Yoke Mount is also designed with two holes to allow the yoke bracket to be placed in one of two positions.
Imara Pole-Op The Imara S10 and S6 Pole-Op fixtures include a yoke with an attached junior pin. They can be hung from a grid with a Junior pipe hanger. Junior pin attached to Pole-Op Yoke Pole Operation The Blue cup alters the Pan (left or right). The White cup alters the Tilt (up or down). Warning! Do not pull yoke to adjust tilt. Turn the white knob counter clockwise to angle the yoke 90°. (ParaBeam shown for illustration purposes only.
Correct Lamp Orientation VERTICAL MODE: The Imara is designed to hold the lamps positioned with the lamp bases up and the lamp tips down. This orientation keeps the mercury away from the cathodes and provides best color rendering. DO NOT operate fixture with lamp base in the down position. Color can diverge up to 400K and can get very green.
Fixture Operation Warning! To Ensure Proper Operation ALWAYS TURN OFF THE FIXTURE BEFORE connecting or disconnecting lamps. After the lamps are properly installed, the switch can turn on the fixture. Avoid operating in temperatures above 125°F (51°C) or below 60°F (15°C). Cold Temperature Operation In cold temperatures below 60°F or 15°C, the fixture may not strike. If lamps do not strike within 5 seconds, switch the fixture to OFF and try again.
Manual Operation The onboard dimmer dial can manually dim lamps. IMARA S10 has 5 manual LAMP SELECT switches. Each switch turns on/off lamps in sets of 2. See diagram below for lamp switching sequence. IMARA S10 Lamp Sequence 8 10 6 4 2 IMARA S6 has 3 manual LAMP SELECT switches. Each switch turns on/off lamps in sets of 2. See diagram below for lamp switching sequence. IMARA S6 Lamp Sequence 6 4 2 Note: All manual controls are disabled as soon as the DMX cable is applied.
DMX Operation DMX Addressing Prior to hanging any instruments, set the DMX address of each fixture. Push the tabs above or below the number window to set the address. (Valid addresses range from 001 to 512.) The light above the address block will illuminate if a DMX signal is present. IMPORTANT! The dimmer board/light console should have its channel set to LINEAR light output response. (LINEAR response is the default setting on most dimmer boards.

Auto Terminate Feature Each Imara DMX fixture has an “AUTO TERMINATE” feature. The last fixture that does not have an XLR cable attached to the DMX “Out” port will automatically terminate. Any theatrical lighting board with DMX512 protocol can be used to individually turn on/off lamps in a fixture. Imara fixtures can be jumpered using the IN and OUT ports. As many as 100 fixtures can be jumpered on one chain as long as the DMX cable run remains under 1000 feet or 40 x 25ft DMX cables.
Troubleshooting Lamps Fail to Light: • With the power switch in the ON position, the red light should be on. If it is not, voltage is not present. Check the power feed. Check the fuse on the fixture and replace if “blown” or “open” with same type of fuse rating. • Each ballast operates 2 lamps. If one or both lamps do not light, replace with new lamps that have been tested to work. If tested lamps still do not light, replace ballast.
