FIXTURE OVERVIEW

ACCESORIES

INSTALLATION

A projector can be placed on the stage floor directly or mounted on a truss at any direction without impacting its performance. Please use a safety cord, which can support 10 times the weight of the projector, while mounting it on the truss. The safety cord should be used with magazine with a lock. Just as the figures below, please run the safety cord through the holes at the bottom of the base and around the truss. Use a safety cord, which can support 10 times the weight of the projector, while mounting it on the truss.
The safety cord should be used with magazine with a lock. Just as the figures below, please run the safety cord through the holes at the bottom of the base and around the truss.

RIGGING

1. Use M12 bolt to fix the clamp (1) into the omega holder (3), run the bolt through the holder’s holes.
2. Push 2 quick-lock fasteners (4) into holes at the bottom of the base, fix them and tighten them clockwise.
3. Run safety cord (2) through holes at the bottom of the base.

1. Clamps.
2. Safety Wire.
3. Omega Holder.
4. Quick-lock fastener.
5. Attachement point.

Use the spanner supplied with a projector to help installation.

WARNING!
THE PROJECTOR MUST BE LIFTED OR CARRIED BY THE HANDLES INSTEAD OF CLAMPS. FOR SAFETY THE SAFETY CORD SHOULD AFFORD 10 TIMES THE PROJECTOR’S WEIGHT.

It must use secondary safety accessory like appropriate net. The structures of the secondary accessory must ensure that while malfunction happens, the installed parts won’t fall to the ground.
While rigging, mounting or maintaining, the projector mustn’t be placed in the areas listed hereinafter: the bridge, high work areas or other dangerous areas.
The operator of the projector or its related safety items must be accepted by safety experts before first launching or rerunning after any replacements or repairing.
The operator must ensure a test before acceptance every 4 years and the related safety measures and installation accepted by experts.
The operator must ensure the related safety measures and its installation must be approved by the technicians every year.
The projector may be installed in places under which people may walk by or sit. Important! Installations in high places requires wide experience, including but not limited to load limit calculation, the installing materials needed and regular inspection of installing materials and the projectors. If lacking the qualifications, please don’t try installation by yourself, but seek help from professionals using designated lifting gears. Abnormal installation may cause body harm or property
damages.
The projectors must be installed in places where people can’t reach. If they are removed from ceiling or high places, professional truss must be used. It is forbidden to let any projector move freely in a room after installation.
Note: Device falling down can cause heavy body harm! If you have any questions about its safety, don’t install any projector!
Before installation, please ensure mounting areas can endure 10 times the weight of a project at least.

POWER/CONTROL CONNECTION

POWER CONNECTION

Connection method:

• L (Live) Brown wire
• E (Earth) Yellow / Green bi-color wire
• N (Neutral) Blue wire

CONNECTION METHOD

The fixture has 3-pin XLR connectors for DMX data input and output as shown below.
Connection between the console and fixture, and between fixtures must be made with 2 core screened

The voltage and frequency of the power source must be in compliance with the ones marked on the fixture. It is strongly recommended that each fixture are to be connected to the power source separately so that they can be switched on / off individually.

DMX signal cable. Maximum connecting distance of signal cable is 150 meters. Additional DMX512 signal-amplifier is recommended for longer distance.

DMX CONTROL CONNECTION

Connection between controller and projector and between one projector and another must be made with a twin-screened cable, with each wire having at least a 0.5mm in diameter.
Connection to and from the projector is via cannon 5 pin (which are included with the projector) or 5 pin XLR plugs and sockets. The XLR’s are connected as shown in the figure above.
Note: care should be taken to ensure that none of the pins touch the metallic body of the plug or each other. XLR plugs and sockets mustn’t be connected in any way other than mentioned in the above figure.
The XR330BWS accepts digital control signals in protocol DMX512 (1990).
Connect the controller’s DMX output to the first fixture’s DMX input, and connect the first fixture’s DMX output to the second fixture’s DMX input and connect the rest fixtures in the same way.
Eventually connect the last fixture’s DMX output to a DMX terminator as shown in the figure below.

DMX TERMINATOR

In the Controller mode, at the last fixture in the chain, the DMX output has to be connected with a DMX terminator. This prevents electrical noise from disturbing and corrupting the DMX control signals.
The DMX terminator is simply an XLR connector with a 120 (ohm) resistor connected across pins 2 and 3, which is then plugged into the output socket on the last projector in the chain. The connections are illustrated below.

ALIGNMENT, INSTALLATION OR REPLACEMENT OF A LAMP

• Loosen and remove screws B,C and D .Loosen screw A which can only be loosened but can’t be removed, for details please see the figure on the right. Then the lamp and its supporting frames can be seen.
• Loosen screws E and F and push the lamp supporting frames downward to expose the lamp’s side, and remove the lamp after pushing it downward. After unplugging the lamp, remove it. Plug a new lamp with lamp wires after it is in place, push the supporting frames upward and tighten the screws to fix the new lamp. Tighten the screws after the lamp chamber cover is on.
  At last restore the projector’s original appearance based on the opposite sequences of dismantling.

SOME ITEMS REQUIRING ATTENTION AS FOR THE USE
For the effective extension of the lifespan of discharge lamp, some factors impacting its lifespan are specially listed below, based on manufacturing technology and working mechanism of discharge lamps., physical attributions of the lamps including lamp striking theory( ignited by focused high voltage—highly pressurized air broken down and burning—lamp on at high temperature with thermal protection— stable running) and lamp off theory( lamp off power —lamp off at high temperature and thermal protection-highly pressurized air vaporizing evenly—-completion of lamp off.

SOME ITEMS REQUIRING ATTENTION AS FOR THE USE OF DISCHARGE LAMP
For the effective extension of the lifespan of discharge lamp, some factors impacting its lifespan are specially listed below, based on manufacturing technology and working mechanism of discharge lamps., physical attributions of the lamps including lamp striking theory( ignited by focused high voltage—highly pressurized air broken down and burning—lamp on at high temperature with thermal protection— stable running) and lamp off theory( lamp off power —lamp off at high temperature and thermal protection-highly
pressurized air vaporizing evenly—-completion of lamp off.

1. The sequence of lamp striking: Power on→lamp striking by controller(advised not to strike lamp via power on), the sequence of lamp off: lamp off by controller→mains power shut off (advised not to turn off lamp by shutting off mains power).
2. Within 1 min after lamp striking, it shouldn’t re-strike it frequently. ONLY more than 10 min after the projector is cooled after lamp off, can the lamp be re-stricken again.
3. Within 5 min after lamp striking, it can’t be turned off. During the lamp striking process, it’s forbidden to turn off lamp via shutting off mains power, but via controller. More than 5 min after the projector is cooled after lamp off, can the mains power be shut off.
4. The projector is advised not to point to the same point for long time, i.e., it shouldn’t be used for long time at a fixed angle.
5. The projector is advised not to use double colors for long time, i.e., it shouldn’t use 2 or more colors for long time.
6. The projector is advised not to keep shutters closed while lamp on for long time, i.e., it should be less than 1 hr after shutters closed after lamp on. It is advised not to use lamp half power function for long time.
