INSTALLATION

WARNING! Risk of injury caused by falling objects Devices in overhead installations may cause severe injuries when crashing down. Make sure that the device is installed securely and cannot fall down. The installation must be carried out by a specialist who is familiar with the hazards and the relevant regulations.

The device may be placed on the floor or fastened to a truss or similar rigging structure. The device must never be fixed swinging freely in the room.

1. The rigging structure must support at least 10 times the weight of all fixtures to be installed on it.
2. Block access below the work area and work from a stable platform when installing the device.
3. Use rigging hardware that is compatible with the structure and capable of bearing the weight of the device. Please refer to the “Accessories” section for a list of suitable rigging hardware.
4. Secure the device with a safety bond or other secondary attachment. This secondary safety attachment must be sufficiently dimensioned in accordance with the latest industrial safety regulations and constructed in a way that no part of the installation can fall down if the main attachment fails. An appropriate eyelet is mounted on the device for fixation of the safety bond. Fasten the safety bond in such a way that, in the event of a fall, the maximum drop distance of the device will not exceed 20 cm.
5. To align the device, release the fixation screws at the mounting bracket, adjust the desired inclination angle and tighten the fixation screws.
6. After installation, the device requires inspections periodically to prevent the possibility of corrosion, deformation and looseness.

Inserting/Exchanging gobos

DANGER!
Install the gobos with the device switched off only. Unplug from mains before!

If you wish to use other forms and patterns as the standard gobos, or if gobos are to be exchanged, please follow the instructions below:

CAUTION!
Never unscrew the screws of the rotating gobo as the ball bearing will otherwise be opened!

Remove the fixation ring with an appropriate tool. Remove the gobo and insert the new gobo. Press the fixation ring together and insert it in front of the gobo.

Notes!
Slot-in gobo-system for exchanging gobos without tools! Inserting/Exchanging gobos as described above.

CONNECTIONS

DMX512 control

A DMX512 data link is required in order to control the device via DMX. The device provides 3-pin XLR connectors for DMX connection.

1. Connect the output of your DMX controller to the DMX input DMX IN of the device with a DMX cable.
2. Connect the DMX output DMX OUT of the device to the DMX input of the next unit in the chain. Always connect one output to the input of the next unit until all units are connected.
3. At the last unit, the DMX cable has to be terminated. Plug the terminator with a 120 Ω resistor between Signal (–) and Signal (+) in the DMX output of the last unit.
4. If the cable length exceeds 300 m or the number of DMX devices is greater than 32, it is recommended to insert a DMX-level amplifier to ensure proper data transmission.

XLR connection

Wireless DMX transmission with QuickDMX
The device features an alternative DMX input for a QuickDMX receiver (sold separately). CRMX and WDMX receivers are compatible and can also be used. The connector allows a DMX control signal to be transmitted wirelessly to the device, eliminating the need for complex wiring to the DMX controller. The connector is designed as a USB port which provides the required 5 V operating voltage for the receiver. Occupation of the USB port:

Connection to the mains
The device uses an auto-range power supply that accepts input voltages between 100 und 240 volts.

1. Connect the device via the enclosed mains cable to a grounded mains socket. Thus the unit is switched on.
2. To switch off the unit, disconnect the power plug.
3. Do not connect the unit to the mains voltage via a dimmer. For a more convenient operation, use a mains outlet which is switchable.

Master/Slave operation
The master/slave operation enables several devices can be synchronized and controlled by one master device. On the rear panel of the device you can find an XLR-jack (DMX Out) and an XLR-plug (DMX In), which can be used for connecting several devices. Choose the device which is to control the effects. This device then works as master device and controls all other slave-devices, which are to be connected to the master device via a DMX cable. Connect the DMX OUT-jack with the DMX IN-plug of the next device. Set “Mast“ for the master device, as described in chapter Control Board. Set “Slv1” or “Slve2” for all slave devices.

OPERATION

Completely remove the transport safeties (cable ties) at the mirror. (Only necessary at initial start-up!) After connecting the device to the mains it is ready for operation. The display indicates the last operating mode. The operating modes can be selected by means of the display and the control buttons. All settings remain stored even if the device is disconnected from the mains. The device can be operated in stand-alone mode via the control board or in DMX-controlled mode via any commercial DMX controller as well as wireless via QuickDMX with the optionally available EUROLITE QuickDMX USB Wireless Transmitter/Receiver. After you connected the effect to the mains, the EUROLITE LED TSL-350 Scan COB starts running. During the Reset, the motors are trimmed and the device is ready for use afterwards.

Control Board
The Control Board offers several features: you can e. g. easily set the starting address. The main menu is accessed by pressing the Mode button. Browse through the menu by pressing the Mode button. Press the Enter button in order to select the desired menu. You can change the selection by pressing Up or Down. Confirm every selection by pressing the Enter button. You can leave every mode by pressing the Mode button. The functions provided are described in the following sections.

DMX operation
Setting the DMX starting address For operation with a controller with DMX512 protocol, the device is equipped with 10 control channels. To be able to operate the device with a DMX controller, the DMX starting address must be set. The starting address depends upon which DMX controller is being used. Please refer to the controller’s documentation.

1. Press the UP or DOWN button so many times until DMX Set Address is indicated on the display. Confirm with the ENTER button.
2. Now the display calls up the menu item for the DMX starting address: A001.
3. Use the buttons UP and DOWN to set the address. Confirm with the ENTER button.
4. The display will flash when DMX signals are being received.

Note: Please make sure that you do not have any overlapping channels in order to control each device correctly and independently from any other fixture on the DMX chain. If several devices are addressed to the same address, they will work synchronously.
