RDM
This fixture supports RDM operation. RDM (Remote Device Management) is a bi- directional communications protocol for use in DMX512 control systems, it is the new open standard for DMX512 device configuration and status monitoring. The RDM protocol allows data packets to be inserted into a DMX512 data stream without adversely affecting existing non-RDM equipment. By using a special „Start Code,“ and by complying with the timing specifications for DMX512, the RDM protocol allows a console or dedicated RDM controller to send commands to and receive messages from specific moving lights. RDM allows explicit commands to be sent to a device and responses to be received from it. The list of commands for the iParfect 150 FW TW is the following.

Maintenance and cleaning

Disconnect from the mains before starting any cleaning or service work.

It is absolutely essential that the fixture front transparent glass is kept clean and dust, dirt and smoke-fluid residues must not build up on the glass. Otherwise, the fixture‘s light-output will be significantly reduced. Regular cleaning will ensure the maximum light otput. A soft lint-free cloth moistened with any good glass cleaning fluid is recommended, under no circumstances should solvents be used! More complicated maintenance and service operations are only to be carried out by authorized distributors.

Replacing the fuse
Replace the fuse by a fuse of the same type and rating only.

Before replacing the fuse, unplug mains lead!

  1. Disconnect the fixture from mains.
  2. Remove the rear panel (1) from housing by unscrewing the six screws (2).
  3. Remove the fuse from the fuse holder (3).
  4. Install a new fuse (only the same type and rating) into the fuse holder.
  5. Screw the rear panel (1) back to the housing by means of the six screws (2). Use a tightening torque of 3 Nm. Check that all screws are firmly screwed.
