Important Discharge Lamp Warning

This fixture is fitted with a discharge lamp which is highly susceptible to damage if improperly handled.
Never touch the lamp with your bare fingers as the oil from your hands will shorten lamp life. Also, never move the fixture until the lamps have had ample time to cool. Remember, lamps are not covered under warranty conditions.

This unit emits intense UV radiation which is harmful to the eyes and skin.
The intense luminance of the lamp can cause severe damage to the retina.
Never operate this unit without it’s covers, these covers have been specially designed to shield against UV radiation.
Epileptic Warning : Those suffering from epilepsy should avoid looking directly into the lamp at all times.
Avoid switching the fixture on and off repeatedly in short intervals as this will reduce lamp life and intensity.
To achieve the intensity associated with discharge lamps, these lamps use gas sealed in a high pressure environment to emit a brilliant output. Due to the high pressure involved with the construction of the lamp, the lamp may explode during prolonged extensive use. This risk is increased with age, added care is encouraged when dealing with older lamps. Extreme caution should be used when operating this or any fixture fitted with a gas discharge lamp. Never open this unit while in use.

VERY IMPORTANT : This is for your safety and the life length of the unit.
The Philips® Platinum 5R Discharge lamp has lifetime of 3000 hours.
ADJ recommends periodically checking the lamp running time. When the lamp reaches the 3000 hour mark, or close to it, we strongly suggest you switch the lamp out.
Replace the lamp following the instructions on pages 35-38. After replacing the lamp you must clear the LAMP RUNNING TIME (see page 15 “FHRS”).
Warning : DO NOT use this lamp more then 3000 hours. Using the lamp any longer then the set life could seriously damage your unit.

Mounting

When installing the unit, the trussing or area of installation must be able to hold 10 times the weight without any deformation. When installing the unit must be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. and appropriate safety cable. Never stand directly below the unit when mounting, removing, or servicing the unit.
Overhead mounting requires extensive experience, including calculating working load limits, installation material being used, and perodic safety inspection of all installation material and unit. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself.
These installation should be checked by a skilled person once a year.

The Vizi Beam 5RX is fully operational in two different mounting positions, hanging upside-down from a ceiling or set on a flat level surface. To avoid internal damage to the unit, never mount the unit on its side as illustrated above. Be sure this fixture is kept at least 0.5m away from any flammable materials (decoration etc.). Always use and install the supplied safety cable as a safety measure to prevent accidental damage and/or injury in the event the clamp fails (see next page). Never use the carrying handles for secondary attachment.

NOTICE : The suitable environmental temperature for this lighting fixture is between -25˚ C to 45˚ C. Do not place this lighting fixture in an environment where the temperatures are under or above the temperatures stated above. This will allow the fixture to run at its best and help prolong the fixture life.

1. Clamp
2. Omega-holders
3. Quick-lock fastener
   
   

Screw one clamp each via a M12 screw and nut onto the Omega holders. Insert the quick-lock fasteners of the first Omega holder into the respective holes on the bottom of the Vizi Beam 5RX. Tighten the quick-lock fasteners fully clockwise.
Install the second Omega holder. Pull the safety-cable through the openings located on the base plate and over the trussing system or a safe fixation spot. Insert the end in the carabine and tighten the safety screw.

Set Up

Power Supply : The ADJ® Vizi Beam 5RX contains a electronic ballast, which will auto sense the voltage when it is plugged into the power source. With the electronic ballast you do not need to worry about wall voltage, this unit can be plugged in anywhere.

DMX-512 : DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal protocol used by most lighting and controller manufactures as a form of communication between intelligent fixtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions from the controller to the fixture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from fixture to fixture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA “OUT” terminal).

DMX Linking : DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of different manufactures to be linked together and operate from a single controller, as long as all fixtures and the controller are DMX compliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. The order in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle. Therefore, the first fixture controlled by the controller could be the last fixture in the chain. When a fixture is assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to address 1 to that unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.

Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX and Master/Slave Operation) : The Vizi Beam 5RX can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The Vizi Beam 5RX can be either a 16 or 19 channel DMX unit.
The DMX address is set electronically using the controls on the side panel of the unit. Your unit and your DMX controller require a approved DMX-512 110 Ohm Data cable for data input and data output (Figure 1). We recommend Accu-Cable DMX cables. If you are making your own cables, be sure to use standard 110-120 Ohm shielded cable (This cable may be purchased at almost all professional sound and lighting stores). Your cables should be made with a male and female XLR connector on either end of the cable. Also remember that DMX cable must be daisy chained and cannot be split.

Notice : Be sure to follow figures two and three when making your own cables. Do not use the ground lug on the XLR connector. Do not connect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behavior.

XLR Pin Configuration

Pin 1 = Ground
Pin 2 = Data Compliment (negative)
Pin 3 = Data True (positive)

Special Note : Line Termination. When longer runs of cable are used, you may need to use a terminator on the last unit to avoid erratic behavior. A terminator is a 110-120 ohm 1/4 watt resistor which is connected between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector (DATA + and DATA -). This unit is inserted in the female XLR connector of the last unit in your daisy chain to terminate the line. Using a cable terminator (ADJ part number Z-DMX/T) will decrease the possibilities of erratic behavior.

Termination reduces signal errors and avoids signal transmission problems and interference. It is always advisable to connect a DMX terminal, (Resistance 120 Ohm 1/4 W) between PIN 2 (DMX-) and PIN 3 (DMX +) of the last fixture.

5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors. Some manufactures use 5-pin DMX512 data cables for DATA transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin DMX fixtures may be implemented in a 3-pin DMX line. When inserting standard 5-pin data cables in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used, these adaptors are readily available at most electric stores. The chart below details a proper cable conversion.

3-Pin XLR to 5-Pin XLR Conversion

Conductor| 3-Pin XLR Female (Out)| 5-Pin XLR Male (In)
Ground/Shield| Pin 1| Pin 1
Data Compliment (- signal)| Pin 2| Pin 2
Data True (+ signal)| Pin 3| Pin 3
Not Used| | Pin 4 – Do Not Use
Not Used| | Pin 5 – Do Not Use

Cleaning

Fixture Cleaning : Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the internal and external optical lenses and mirror should be carried out periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates (I.e. smoke, fog residue, dust, dew). In heavy club use we recommend cleaning on a monthly basis. Periodic cleaning will ensure longevity, and crisp output.

1. Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the outside casing.
2. Use a brush to wipe down the cooling vents and fan grill.
3. Clean the external optics and mirror with glass cleaner and a soft cloth every 20 days.
4. Clean the internal optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth every 30-60 days.
5. Always be sure to dry all parts completely before plugging the unit back in.
