Connecting the control signal line: DMX / Art-Net

Connecting to the control signal line (DMX) – Fig. 7
Use a cable conforming to specifications EIA RS-485: 2-pole twisted, shielded, 120Ohm characteristic impedance, 22-24 AWG, low capacity. Do not use microphone cable or other cable with characteristics differing from those specified. The end connections must be made using XLR type 3/5-pin male/female connectors. A terminating plug must be inserted into the last projector with a resistance of 120Ohm (minimum 1/4 W) between terminals 2 and 3.
IMPORTANT: The wires must not make contact with each other or with the metal casing of the connectors. The casing itself must be connected to the shield braid and to pin 1 of the connectors.

Switching on the fixture and basic SetUp

Switching on the projector – Fig. 8
Press the switch. The projector starts resetting the effects. At the same time, the following information scrolls on the display:

On conclusion of resetting in case of absence of the dmx signal, Pan and Tilt move to the “Home” position (Pan 128 bit – Tilt 128 bit). The control panel (Fig. 8) has a display and buttons for the complete programming and management of the projector menu. The display can be in one of two conditions: rest status and setting status. When it is in the rest status, the display shows the projector’s DMX address and the Fixture ID address (if set).
During menu setting status, after a wait time (about 30 seconds) without any key having been pressed, the display automatically returns to rest status. It should be noted than when this condition occurs, any possible value that has been modified but not yet confirmed with the key will be cancelled.

Reversal of the display – Fig. 9
To activate this function, press UP Band DOWN Ckeys simultaneously while the display is in the rest mode. This status will be memorized and maintained even for the next time it will be switched on. To return to the initial state, repeat the operation all over again.
Setting the projector starting address
On each projector, the starting address must be set for the control signal (addresses from 1 to 512).
The address can also be set with the projector switched off.
Setting the projector Fixture ID
On each projector, the Fixture ID address must be set for an easy identification of the fixtures in an installation (ID from 1 to 255).
The Fixture ID address can be set with the projector switched off.
Reversal of the display

MAINTENANCE

Maintenance and Caution

CAUTION:

To avoid damage to the internal parts of the fixture when the fixture is not working, is recommended to turn the head down before turning the fixture off, so that the front lenses of the fixture are invested as little as possible from the sun.
Set Zoom channel to 255-bit before turning off the projector to facilitate the packaging of the projector.
It is recommended not to use compressed air with more than 4 atmospheres for cleaning the internal parts of the fixture, led board area.
This is to avoid damaging electronic components.
To ensure optimal operation and performance for a long time it is essential to periodically clean the parts subject to dust and grease deposits. The frequency with which the following operations are to be carried out depends on various factors, such as the amount of the effects and the quality of the working environment (air humidity, presence of dust, salinity, etc.).
It is recommended that the projector undergoes an annual service by a qualified technician for special maintenance involving at least the following operations:
- General cleaning of internal parts.
- Restoring lubrication of all parts subject to friction, using lubricants specifically supplied by Clay paky.
- General visual check of the internal components, cabling, mechanical parts, etc.
- Electrical, photo metric and functional checks; eventual repairs.

Cleaning the lenses
Only use neutral soap and water to clean the lenses, then dry it carefully with a soft, non-abrasive cloth. (WARNING: the use of alcohol or any other detergent could damage the lenses).
