Installation 4 Installation Unpack and check carefully there is no transportation damage before using the unit. Keep the equipment packaging. To fully protect the product against vibration, dust and moisture during transportation or storage use the original packaging or your own packaging material suitable for transport or storage, respectively. WARNING! Risk of injury caused by falling objects Make sure that the installation complies with the standards and rules that apply in your country.
Installation NOTICE! Damages due to disconnection during operation Only operate the unit when all spotlights are connected. The disconnection of LED spotlights during operation may damage the unit. Dis‐ connect the unit from the power supply before disconnecting LED spotlights. NOTICE! Risk of overheating The distance between light output and the illuminated surface must be more than 1.5 m (19.7in). Provide sufficient ventilation. The ambient temperature must always be below 40 °C (104 °F). CLB2.
Installation NOTICE! Use of stands When mounting the device onto a stand, ensure that the stand is in a safe and stable position and that the weight of the device does not exceed the maximum permissible load capacity of the stand. NOTICE! Possible data transmission errors For error-free operation make use of dedicated DMX cables and do not use ordi‐ nary microphone cables. Never connect the DMX input or output to audio devices such as mixers or ampli‐ fiers.
Installation Pre-mounted spots The four spots are pre-mounted on the T-bar. Attach the T Bar on a stand and connect the foot switch unit (stand and foot switch not included). A Locking screws to fix the height and inclination angle. B Threads for attaching additional effects units or for hanging using the C-hooks. CLB2.
Installation C Locking screw for fixing the spots on the T bar and the horizontal alignment (beam direction). D Electrical connection of the spots on the T bar (pre-assembled). E Safety cable eyelet Please note that this device must not be connected to a dimmer.
Installation Inserting the battery into the remote control Press the lock of the battery holder to the centre of the housing and pull out the battery holder like a drawer. Insert the battery. The battery is correct if the positive pole points to the housing base of the remote control. Slide the battery holder back into the remote until it clicks into place. When shipping, the battery is already installed in the remote and protected against discharge by a transparent plastic foil.
Starting up 5 Starting up Create all connections while the device is off. Use the shortest possible high-quality cables for all connections. Take care when running the cables to prevent tripping hazards.
Starting up Connections in ‘DMX’ mode Connect the DMX input of the device to the DMX output of a DMX controller or another DMX device. Connect the output of the first DMX device to the input of the second one and so on, to form a series connection. Such a chain may consist of up to 30 DMX devices. Make sure that the output of the last device in the chain is terminated by a resistor (110 Ω, ¼ W). CLB2.
Starting up DMX indicator If the unit is in DMX mode and a DMX controller is connected and turned on, the ‘d’ is flashing in the first digit of the display. Connections in ‘Master / Slave‘ mode When you configure a group of devices in ‘Master / Slave’ mode, the first device controls the others and allows an automatic, music-controlled and synchronized show. This feature is espe‐ cially useful to start a show without much programming.

Troubleshooting 10 Troubleshooting NOTICE! Possible data transmission errors For error-free operation make use of dedicated DMX cables and do not use ordi‐ nary microphone cables. Never connect the DMX input or output to audio devices such as mixers or ampli‐ fiers. In the following we list a few common problems that may occur during operation. We give you some suggestions for easy troubleshooting: CLB2.
Troubleshooting Symptom Remedy The unit does not work, no light 1. Check the mains connection and the main fuse. 2. Check the settings in manual operation (‘Static Color’) 3. Check whether the device has switched off due to excessive heat: Overtemperature protection, the value ‘rt’ is flashing on the display. In this case, switch the device off and let it cool down for some time. No response to the DMX con‐ troller 1.
Cleaning 11 Cleaning Optical lenses Clean the optical lenses, that are accessible from the outside, regularly in order to optimize the light output. The frequency of cleaning depends on the operating environment: wet, smoky or particularly dirty surroundings can cause more accumulation of dirt on the optics of the device. n Clean with a soft cloth using our lamp and lens cleaner (item no. 280122). n Always dry the parts carefully.
Protecting the environment 12 Protecting the environment Disposal of the packaging mate‐ rial For the packaging, environmentally friendly materials have been chosen that can be supplied to normal recycling. Ensure that plastic bags, packaging, etc. are properly disposed of. Do not just dispose of these materials with your normal household waste, but make sure that they are collected for recycling.
