4. Installation Fixtures must be installed by a Qualified electrician in accordance with all national and local electrical and construction codes and regulation. 4.1 Connection to the mains For protection from electric shock, the fixture must be earthed! The Robin 300ESpot is equipped with auto-switching power supply that automatically adjusts to any 50/60Hz AC power source from 100-240 Volts.
4.2 Installing the lamp DANGER ! Install the lamp with the device switched off only. Unplug from mains before ! To insert the new lamp. 1. Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool at least 15 minutes. 2. Make sure that the fixture´s head is in the position as shown on the picture (notices on the lamp cover are in readable position) .Loosen the two quarter-turn fasteners (1) marked “X,Y“ on the lamp cover to open this cover. 3.
4.4 Replacing the colour filters and gobos DANGER! Install the colour filters or gobos with the device switched off only. Unplug from mains before! Colour filters 1. Disconnect the fixture from mains and allow it to cool. 2. Remove the top plastic cover of the head by loosening the 4 quarter-turn fasteners on the cover. 3. Turn the colour wheel to the desired position.The dichroic filters are fixed on the colour wheel by the magnets. 4.
Rotating gobos 1. Disconnect the fixture from mains and allow it to cool. 2. Remove the bottom plastic cover of the head by loosening the 4 quarter-turn fasteners on the cover. 3. Gently pull up the gobo holder from the rotation gobo wheel. 4. Remove the spring gobo-lock with an appropriate tool (e.g. small-bladed screwdriver) and remove it. Do not touch the surface of the pattern of the glass gobo. 5. Remove the original gobo and insert the new one (glazy side towards the lamp).
4.5 Rigging the fixture The installation of the fixture has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10 times the weight for 1 hour without any harming deformation. The installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. an appropriate catch net. This secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that no part of the installation can fall down if the main attachment fails.
Truss installation 1.Bolt each clamp (1) to the omega holder (3) with M12 bolt and lock nut through the hole in the holder. 2.Fasten the omega holders on the bottom of the base by inserting both quick-lock fasteners (4) into the holes of the base and tighten fully clockwise. 3. Pull the safety wire (2) through the carrying handles (5) and around the truss (6) as shown on the pictures below.
4.6 DMX-512 connection The fixture is equipped with both 3-pin and 5-pin XLR sockets for DMX input and output.The sockets are wired in parallel. Only use a shielded twisted-pair cable designed for RS-485 and 3-pin or 5-pin XLR-plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller with the fixture or one fixture with another.
4.7 Ethernet connection The fixtures on a data link are connected to the Ethernet with ArtNet communication protocol.The control software running on your PC (or light console) has to support Art-Net protocol. Art-Net communication protocol is a 10 Base T Ethernet protocol based on the TCP/IP.Its purpose is to allow transfer of large amounts of DMX 512 data over a wide area using standard network technology. IP address is the Internet protocol address.
Ethernet / DMX operation Options “Art2DMX” has to be selected from the “Ethernet Mode” menu on the first fixture (connected to the Ethernet) in the fixture chain,next fixtures have standard DMX setting. Connect the Ethernet-input of the first fixture in the data chain with the network. Connect the DMX output of this fixture with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are connected to the DMX chain. Caution: At the last fixture, the DMX chain has to be terminated with a terminator.
5. Remotely controllable functions Lamp The Robin 300ESpot is to be operated with a Philips MSR Gold 300/2 MiniFastFit lamp. Note: It is also important to note, that the discharge lamp is cold restrike types, that means, that they have to be cold before re-striking. For this reason, you have to wait 5 minutes after having switched the lamp off before you can switch it on again.
