Note: If at a later time you remove the animation wheel then use the control menu to select the
wheel (WHEL) personality (under the PERS menu) and set it to COLR. When you reinstall
the color wheel you may also need to calibrate it using the color wheel calibration option
available under the Utility menu. See “Control menu” on page 34 for more information.
REPLACING THE COLOR WHEEL WITH AN ANIMATION WHEEL
To replace the color wheel with an animation wheel:
1 Using the control menu (see “Control menu” on page 34), select the wheel (WHEL) personality (under the
PERS menu) and set it to EFCT. If you fail to do this an error will occur when the fixture resets.
2 Disconnect the fixture from AC power and allow it to cool.
3 Remove the fixture cover.
4 Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the effect wheel module.
5 Remove the effects wheel and then the color wheel using a 2.5
mm hex wrench. The wheels are held in place using clamps that are similar to the
one illustrated here.
6 If you want to use color effects then the appropriate color filters must be placed
on the effect wheel.
7 A clamp with a magnet attached to it is supplied with the Animation Wheel
Adaptor Kit. Place the animation wheel on the clamp. It will be held in place
magnetically.
8 Place the animation wheel on the motor spindle with the magnetic clamp farthest
from the lamp/effect motor. Ensure that the animation wheel is as close as
possible to the effect-wheel-module bulkhead without it coming in contact with
anything that might hinder its free rotation. The closer the animation wheel is to
the bulkhead, the sharper you will be able to focus on it. Clamp the animation
wheel into place using a 2.5 mm hex wrench.
9 Replace the effects wheel, ensuring that it will sit as close to the focus module as
possible. The optimal distance from the effects module bulkhead to the effect wheel is 15 mm (0.6 in.), but
