Safety Instructions

The IMPRESSION X4 XL is a High-Tech Product. To guarantee a smooth operation, it is necessary to respect the following rules. The manufacturer of this device will not take responsibility for damages through any disregard of the information provided in this manual. Warranty claims also will be voided in the case that the fixture housing is opened.

Never look directly into the beam of light or into one of the LEDs. Attention: LED Class 2M can cause injuries of your eyes even without optical instruments in front of them or within a distance of less than 0.5m and short exposure time.
Hence: Avoid direct radiation into your eyes!
**WARNING :
Never let optical parts come in contact with alcohol, solvents or similar cleaners.**

1. Before powering on the fixture, make sure that the fixtures fans and air inlets are clean and not blocked.
2. Ensure that the fixture head can rotate unhindered throughout its complete range of pan and tilt movement. A safety distance of at least 0.5 m must be maintained between the fixture and any easily inflammable material.
3. Attention! Don’t touch the fixture during the operation. This can cause injuries and/or damages.
4. The fixture doesn’t contain any user serviceable parts. Opening the fixture will void all warranties.
5. It is necessary to wait at least 15 minutes after disconnecting the mains power before handling the fixture. Pay attention to possible hot parts.
6. To ensure safe operation, follow also the Installation guide described in the chapter below. Operating the IMPRESSION X4 XL without suitable safety aids like Safety cables or clamps/hooks can increase the risk of an accident and must be avoided.
7. Repair, maintenance, and installation work shall be done by qualified or GLP certified staff only. You need to pay attention to the common rules of technology that are not explicitly mentioned in this manual.
8. Use only original GLP spare parts. Any structural modification of the system will terminate all warranty claims.
9. Please keep this instruction manual for future reference.

Important Safety Information

The IMPRESSION X4XL fixture from GLP is fitted with a number of planoconvex lenses in a highly efficient collimator cluster. This type of lens can act as a strong magnifying glass.

If the rays from a strong light source (such as the sun or another lighting fixture) are directed towards the front of any of these fixtures, then internal damae may occur. In a worst case scenario with a high power light source this can happen very quickly, damaging the fixture internally, potentially melting components or causing an internal fire within seconds.

In order to avoid these possible problems please adhere to the following
requirements:

• Do not expose the front of a fixture to direct sunlight or any other strong light sources.
• For outdoor applications during daylight make sure that the front face of any fixture is either shielded or points away from the sun, even when fixtures are not in use.
• Do not modify the front glass or lenses of any fixture.

These requirements have to be followed regardless of whether a fixture is powered on or off as the magnifying effect is an optical effect and therefore independent from the (electrical) state of the fixture.

Especially when working with high powered beam-lights; extreme caution and observance of these safety instructions is mandatory.

Should you have any questions about the operation of your fixture then please contact your local GLP office, or their authorized distributor, a list of which can be found at www.glp.de.

Mounting

The IMPRESSION X4XL is fully operational whether it hangs or is mounted to the wall. It can also be operated while standing on the floor. Keep a safety distance of min. 0.5 m towards any easily inflammable materials (decoration etc.).

Pay attention to the regulations of: BGV C1 (former VBG 70) and DIN VDE 0711-217.
The installation shall be done by qualified staff only.

For the various mounting positions of the IMPRESSION X4XL (standing on the floor, sideways or hanging) different accessories kits are available. Through this a safe and firm installation is assured. You’ll find dedicated connectors on the bottom side of the fixture which should be used. In addition the base is marked with a FRONT arrow allowing consistent orientation during installation.

1. Mounting on the Floor (upright)
   To operate the IMPRESSION X4XL in an upright position, please use the dedicated tri-legged floor stand supplied with your fixture. It is fixed to the base of the fixture with fasteners called Camlock quick-release connectors. Insert the two fasteners and turn each 90° to lock them. Do the opposite to release them again. On both sides you’ll find eyelets to pull though a fixing strap. This allows for additional bracing of the fixture.
   

2. Mounting in hanging position (Head down)
   To operate the IMPRESSION X4XL in a hanging position two (2) omega brackets can be mounted directly to the bottom of the base using the four (4) Camlock connectors.
   Alternatively two half-couplers (clamps) can be mounted directly to the bottom side of the fixture using M10x16 mm thread bolts.
   Attention: Never use a longer bolt as this may damage the interior of the fixture.
   

3. Securing the Fixture
   Regardless of the mounting method of the IMPRESSION X4XL you’ll have to use a stipulated safety wire. Attach the safety wire through one of the two holes provided on the base of the fixture and connect it to the primary support structure. Pay attention to a safe and proper fastening. The safety cable must comply with EN 60598-2-17 Section 17.6.6 and be capable of bearing a static suspended load that is ten times the weight of the fixture and all installed accessories.

1. The predefined colors can be used as start-colors for the Rainbow effect. Please select first a desired start-color before you activate the rainbow effect. All IMPRESSION X4XL will then start from that color and will execute the rainbow effect synchronously. Different IMPRESSION X4XL can have different start-colors but will still execute the rainbow effect synchronously. If you choose a color different from the ones marked with 1) in the tables above the rainbow start-color will be red.
2. Rainbow-effect Stop will pause this function. After resuming the rainbow-effect will be continued from the current color.
3. The Rainbow-effect will run synchronously only if started from one of the predefined colors (see also 1) before).
4. If the Animation mode is activated through Special Channel set to DMX = 80..83 then the Function of this Channel is:

Maintaining and Cleaning

The IMPRESSION X4XL is a fixture of very low maintenance. It is only necessary to clean the air inlets and outlets as well as the optical LED lenses from time to time. For safe operation it is absolutely essential that the fixture is kept clean and that dust, dirt and smoke-fluid residues must not build up on, or within the fixture. Otherwise the fixture’s light-output will be significantly reduced or damages can occur. Regular cleaning will not only ensure the maximum light-output, but will also allow the fixture to operate reliably throughout its life.
A soft lint-free cloth moistened with any good glass cleaning fluid is recommended to clean the lenses.

Attention:
Under no circumstances should alcohol or solvents be used to clean the lenses!

1. Safety regulations
   • Pull out the mains power plug!
   • Wait min. 15 minutes after disconnecting power to allow the fixture to cool down.
2. Maintenance and Interval (rule-of-thumb)
   The contamination of the fixture depends on the environment details. Hence no general guidelines can be given. The intervals given below are only suggestions from our experience. Position| Interval| In this way
   ---|---|---
   LED reflector and optical system| weekly| soft brush /lint-free cloth
   Fan and air channel| monthly| vacuum cleaner, airbrush, etc.

Attention:

• Never let optical parts come into contact with oil, fat, alcohol or similar solvents.
• Before running the fixture wait until all parts are dry.
• Never touch lenses with bare fingers.
