POWERSUPPLY
On the label on the backside of the product is indicated on this type of power
supply must be connected. Check that the mains voltage corresponds to this,
all other voltages than specified, the light effect can be irreparably
damaged. The product must also be directly connected to the mains and may be
used. No dimmer or adjustable power supply.
Always connect the device to a protected circuit (circuit breaker or fuse).
Make sure the device has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the risk of
electrocution or fire.
RIGGING
The fixture may be set up on a stable and even surface. By means of the fixing
facilities of the baseplate, the unit can also be mounted upside down to a
truss, see the below picture. For fixing, certified clamps with correct save
working load are required. According to the figure, the quick-lock bolts of
the omega brackets are placed into the openings provided in the base plate and
turned clockwise until they lock (to the stop). 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 fixture with a safety cable so that it cannot fall down.
When carrying out any installation, always comply with European and national
guidelines concerning rigging, truss, and all other safety issues. Always let
the
installation checked out by an authorized dealer!
DMX512 CONTROL
If you are using a standard DMX controller, you can connect the DMX output of
the controller directly to the DMX input of the first fixture in a DMX chain.
Always connect the output of one unit with the input of the next fixture until
all fixtures are connected.
Caution : At the last fixture, you must close the DMX line with a
terminating resistor. Take an XLR connector and solder a 120 Ohm resistor
between signal (-) and signal (+) and connect it to the DMX output of the last
fixture in the line.
CLEANING
The buildup of dust, dirt and other airborne particles will reduce the
fixture’s light output. It will also prevent the fixture from cooling
correctly, and this will reduce the fixture’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 fixture’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 fixture, 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 fixture. In
dusty or smoky conditions, inspect the fixture after a few hours and check it
frequently the fixture 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 fixture from power and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
- Do not use solvents, abrasives, or any other aggressive product to clean the fixture.
- 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 fixture 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 the 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.
