SETUP Lamp You will need to install a lamp prior to the initial operation of the fixture. A MSD250 high intensity discharge lamp is included. Warning! When replacing the lamp, please wait 15 minutes after powering down to allow the unit to cool down! Always disconnect from main power prior to lamp replacement. Do not touch the envelope (glass area) of the bulb with bare hands. If this happens, clean the lamp with alcohol and wipe it with a lint free cloth before installation.
Power Your product is equipped with an internal input-voltage select switch. Warning! Verify that the power select switch on your unit matches the line voltage applied. All fixtures must be connected to circuits with a suitable Earth Ground. To determine the power requirements for cover panel as a particular fixture, see the label affixed to illustrated here to gain the back plate of the fixture or refer to the access to the switch shown below. fixture’s specifications chart.
Replacing gobos 1. Begin to remove the fixture top cover by loosening the screws labeled (S1) on the lamp heat plate located at the rear of the head of the fixture. S1 1 S2 2. Remove the heat plate to expose reflector and additional screws. 3. Remove screws labeled (S2). 2 S3 4. Rotate the head and remove screw (S3) from the front of the fixture. 4 Cover removed 5. Press both tips of the gobo tension ring together and remove from the gobo aperture. 6.
Mounting Orientation All models described in this manual can sit on stage or be mounted on a truss using a clamp in any position, provided, there is adequate room for ventilation. W ar n in g It is important never to obstruct the fan or vents pathway. When selecting installation location, take into consideration lamp replacement access and routine maintenance. Safety cables should always be used.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Control Board On the control panel you can set the DMX address, reset the fixture and change fixture personality trait. [MENU] Toggles menu functions. [SELECT] Changes menu function status and is used to set DMX address. Control Board Functions FUNCTION OPTIONS NOTES 000~512 DMX channel addressing Lamp use timer Pressing ▲▼ simultaneously zeroes lamp counter. Off/On Off: Normal On: Shutter closes during the changing of color, gobos or prism.
Applying changes to Functions (Quick Instructions) Unless other wise stated changes in the control board can be applied in the following manner. 1. Press any of the [MENU] arrow buttons repeatedly until the display reads the menu function you wish to change. 2. Press any one of the [SELECT] arrow buttons to activate menu function. The display will show the current state of the function, either “Off” or “On” with exception for DMX addressing and Lamp Time. 3.
Appendix Menu Functions DMX-512 addressing DMX mode enables the use of a universal DMX controller device. Each fixture requires a "start address" from 1 to 511. A fixture requiring one or more channels for control begins to read the data on the channel indicated by the start address. For example, a fixture that occupies or uses 6 channels of DMX and was addressed to start on DMX channel 100, would read data from channels: 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, and 105.
Appendix { } – P an /T ilt co n t ro l ch ann el re- a ss ig n This function will re-position the pan & tilt control channels to start at DMX value number 1. FUNCTION SET TO On Off NOTES Default Pan/Tilt re-assign to channel 1-4 { } - Sh u t t e r aut o - cl os e The shutter will close momentarily during the color, gobo or prism changes. The shutter will re-open once the color, gobo or prism has reached its position.
Appendix Service Functions { } - F i xt u r e R es e t ( a ll mo t o rs) This function will re-initialize the fixture by returning all motors to its startup positions or otherwise known as (home position). FUNCTION SET TO NOTES Off On Normal Reset all motors { } - F i xt u r e Re s et ( e xc lud e s P an & T ilt ) This function will re-initialize the fixture with exception of the Pan and Tilt motors.
Appendix Self Demonstration & Master/Slave { } – S elf - d e mo This function will execute the built-in program in the fixture. FUNCTION SET TO NOTES Off On Normal Run self-demonstration { } – De mo s pe ed You can set the pace of the demo to either quick or fast.
APPENDIX DMX Primer There are 512 channels in a DMX-512 connection. Channels may be assigned in any manner. A fixture capable of receiving DMX-512 will require one or a number of sequential channels. The user must assign a starting address on the fixture that indicates the first channel reserved in the controller. There are many different types of DMX controllable fixtures and they all may vary in the total number of channels required. Choosing a start address should be planned in advance.

Appendix Maintenance To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear fixtures should be cleaned frequently. Usage and environment are contributing factors in determining frequency. As a general rule, fixtures should be cleaned at least twice a month. Dust build up reduces light output performance and can cause overheating. This can lead to reduced lamp life and increased mechanical wear. Be sure to power off fixture before conducting maintenance. Unplug fixture from power.
Appendix General Troubleshooting Applies to Symptom Solution(s) Lights Controllers Dimmers & Chaser Auto shut off Check fan thermal switch reset Beam is very dim or not bright Clean optical system or replace lamp Check 220/110v switch for proper setting Breaker/Fuse keeps blowing Check total load placed on device Chase is too slow Check users manual for speed adjustment Device has no power Check for power on Mains.
