Quick guide

NOTICE
Detailed instructions for the following activities can be found in the respective sections of these operating instructions. When using the unit for the first time, follow the sequence of the following steps to avoid damage to the unit.
WARNING
Please observe the safety instructions in the respective sections for all activities.

• Use with the power supply unit.
• Mount the unit on a tripod.
• Connect the unit to the power supply.
• Switch on the unit, switch off – dimming function.

Preparing the unit for use

6.1 Mounting reflector
The Walimex pro Niova 120/350/500 Plus studio lights can be operated with or without reflector. If no reflector is used, there is no bundling of the light cone and the lamp produces a very wide, unconcentrated light beam. To achieve a greater luminous intensity even at greater distances, we recommend the use of the reflector supplied. The connection of the luminaire is Bowens- compatible and allows the installation of further accessories such as a softbox or a reflector umbrella. We recommend installing the reflector on a tripod before mounting.

• Pull the locking/unlocking lever of the fastening adapter (6) backwards.
• Turn the protective cap (23) and remove it from the fastening adapter.
• Insert the reflector (24) into the reflector holder (8) and turn the reflector until it locks in place.
• A click of the locking/unlocking lever of the fastening adapter (6) signals the correct locking of the reflector.
• Check the secure fit of the reflector (24).
• The reflector is correctly mounted.
• Proceed in reverse order when dismantling the reflector.

Mounting reflector (fig. similar):

1. Slide the accessory lock to the back.
2. Place the reflector in the accessory holder and lock the reflector in place. lock the reflector in place with a clockwise rotation.

6.2 Mounting on a tripod / bracket

• Loosen the fastening screw of the lamp holder (10) so far that the holder can be inserted into the fastening adapter of a suitable lamp stand / ceiling mount.
• Place the lamp with the bracket on a suitable lamp stand or ceiling mount. For this purpose, a 5/8 inch spigot (16 mm spigot) fastening adapter is usually built into the lamp tripod or the ceiling mount.
• The luminaire has a horizontal and a vertical spigot connection so that the lamp tripod or ceiling mount can be used horizontally or vertically.
• Tighten the fixing screw of the lamp holder (10).
• Loosen the inclination angle adjustment of the fixture holder (7). Set the desired inclination angle of the fixture and tighten the inclination angle adjustment of the fixture (7) again.
• The luminaire is correctly mounted and ready for use.
• Proceed in reverse order to dismantle the lamp.

Mounting on tripod (fig. similar): **NOTICE
Observe the tripod manufacturer’s user information.
