For fixing, certified clamps with correct save working load are required. 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 !

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.
REPLACING 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
TROUBLESHOOTING

to the controller.| The controller is not connected.| Connect
controller.
Bad DMX-line.| Inspect connections and cables. Correct poor
connections. Repair or replace damaged cables.
| DMX-line has no end resistance.| Insert DMX terminator plug in DMX
output socket of last unit on DMX-line.
| Incorrect unit addressing.| Check unit address and DMX mode
settings.
| A unit is defective and is disturbing data transmission on the DMX-
line.| Unplug DMX IN and OUT connectors and connect them directly
together to bypass one unit at a time until normal operation is regained.
Have defective unit serviced by an authorized technician.
| Pin 2 and 3 are reversed in XLR connection.| Inspect connections and
cables. Install a phase- reversing cable between the units or swap pin 2
and 3 in the unit, that behaves erratically.
Error after unit reset.| Effect requires mechanical adjustment.|
Check unit’s software version and error
messages for more information. Contact Beamz support or Beamz authorized service partner.
