POWERSUPPLY
On the label on the backside of the unit is indicated on this type of power
supply must be connected. Check that the mains voltage corresponds to this,
all other voltages than specified, the light effect can be irreparably
damaged. The product must also be directly connected to the mains and may be
used. No dimmer or adjustable power supply.
WARNING! Always connect the unit to a protected circuit (circuit breaker
or fuse). Make sure the unit has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the
risk of electrocution or fire.
RIGGING
The unit may be set up ona stable and even surface. By means of the fixing
Facilities of the baseplate, the unit can also be mounted upside down to a
truss, see below picture. For fixing, certified clamps with correct save
working load are required. According to the figure, the quick lock bolts of
the omega brackets are placed into the openings provided in the base plate and
turned clockwise until they lock (to the stop). The mounting place must be of
sufficient stability and be able to support a weight of 10 times of the unit’s
weight. Secure the unit with a safety cable so that it cannot fall down.
When carrying out any installation, always comply European and national
guidelines concerning rigging, truss and all other safety issues. Always let
the installation checked out by an authorized dealer !
DMX521 CONTROL
If you are using a standard DMX controller, you can connect the DMX output
of the controller directly to the DMX input of the first unit in a DMX chain.
Always connect the output of one unit with the input of the next unit until
all units are connected.
CAUTION! At the last unit, you must close the DMX line with a terminating
resistor. Take an XLR connector and solder a 120 Ohm resistor between signal
(-) and signal (+) and connect it to the DMX output of the last unit in the
line.

on the rear side of the remote control press the small bar with the groove to
the right (1) and at the same time remove the battery support (2). For
operation, one 3 V button cell type CR 2025 is required. When inserting, pay
attention that the positive pole of the button cell shows upwards in the
support.
CLEANING
The buildup of dust, dirt and other airborne particles will reduce the unit’s
light output. It will also prevent the unit from cooling correctly, and this
will reduce the unit’s lifetime. The rate of dirt buildup will vary depending
on environmental factors such as airborne dust, use of smoke machines, airflow
from ventilation systems, etc. The unit’s cooling fans will accelerate
buildup, and any smoke particles that are present in the atmosphere will
increase the tendency for dirt to clog.
To get the best performance and lifetime from the unit, inspect it regularly
and clean it as soon as you see signs of dirt buildup.
Assess the operating environment each time you begin to use the unit. In dusty
or smoky conditions, inspect the unit after a few hours and check it
frequently the unit may attract dirt faster than you expect. Draw up a
cleaning schedule that will make sure that dirt is removed before it can build
up.
Use the following guidelines:
- Disconnect the unit from power and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
- Do not use solvents, abrasives or any other aggressive product to clean the unit.
- Vacuum or use low-pressure compressed air to remove dust and loose particles from surfaces and air vents. Prevent the blades of cooling fans from turning before you aim a vacuum or air jet at the fan, or you may spin the fan too fast and damage it.
- Clean glass components by wiping gently with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth moistened with a weak detergent solution. Put the solution on the cloth and not on the surface to be cleaned. Avoid rubbing glass surfaces.
- Dry the unit with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth or low-pressure compressed air before reapplying power.
REPLACINING THE FUSE
If the fuse is defective, replace the fuse with a fuse of the same type and
value. Before replacing the fuse, unplug mains lead.
Procedure:
Step 1: Open the fuse holder on the rear panel with a fitting
screwdriver.
Step 2: Remove the old fuse from the fuse holder.
Step 3: Install the new fuse in the fuse holder.
Step 4: Replace the fuse holder in the housing.
