It includes connecting power and data, along with instructions for powering up the luminaire for the first time and addressing it within your system. • Power and Data Cabling Requirements • Installation Procedures • Powering Up • Addressing 02.9 673.
VARI❋LITE® - VL2000™ SPOT LUMINAIRE USER’S MANUAL Power and Data Cabling Requirements Power The luminaire requires standard AC power distribution from 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. Three amps to twelve amps will be required depending on the AC supply voltage and product model. Depending on the application, the luminaire’s AC input cable may require a different connector.
INSTALLATION : POWER AND DATA CABLING REQUIREMENTS 2 Current vs. Voltage The following table provides the luminaire’s current draw at specific voltages. Current is calculated with the lamp on and all motors sequencing. Table 2-1: Current vs. Voltage Voltage @ 60Hz 02.9 673.00 01 C Current 90.0 11.8 100.0 10.6 110.0 9.5 120.0 8.5 130.0 7.9 140.0 7.2 180.0 5.5 190.0 5.2 200.0 4.9 210.0 4.7 220.0 4.5 230.0 4.3 240.0 4.1 250.0 3.
VARI❋LITE® - VL2000™ SPOT LUMINAIRE USER’S MANUAL Data Cables The luminaire is equipped with two, 5-pin XLR connectors for DATA IN and DATA THRU (out) applications. DATA IN requires a 5-pin, female XLR connector and DATA THRU requires a 5-pin, male XLR connector. When purchasing or constructing data cables, it is important that not only the correct cable type be used, but also quality cable to ensure a reliable DMX512 system.
2 INSTALLATION : POWER AND DATA CABLING REQUIREMENTS Recommended Cable Types/Manufacturers These are only a few of the suitable cable types. Any quality EIA485, twisted pair, 120 ohm, shielded cable will also work.
VARI❋LITE® - VL2000™ SPOT LUMINAIRE USER’S MANUAL Male Termination Connector A male XLR termination connector is required at the last luminaire (or "far end of the line") to prevent signal reflections. Signal reflections may cancel out the signal at certain line lengths, resulting in errors. The terminator is also necessary for software downloads and running tests on multiple luminaires. To construct your own connector, you will need the following components: • 5-pin, male XLR connector.
INSTALLATION : INSTALLATION PROCEDURES 2 Installation Procedures Installing Lamp In the event the lamp was packed separately during shipment, it will be necessary to install in the luminaire before use. WARNING: Ensure that power is removed from luminaire when installing lamp. CAUTION: Wear cotton gloves or other covering while installing lamp. Touching lamp glass with bare fingers will leave oil and may cause the lamp to explode or reduce lamp life.
VARI❋LITE® - VL2000™ SPOT LUMINAIRE USER’S MANUAL Hanging the Luminaire The luminaire can be hung horizontally or vertically from any structure designed to work with the type of load created by this moving luminaire. Two truss hook bracket assemblies (provided) are used to attach truss hooks or other mounting hardware as required. Many compatible truss hooks are available from different manufacturers for your particular needs. A minimum of one hook per truss hook bracket is required.
INSTALLATION : INSTALLATION PROCEDURES 2 Step 3. While pulling up on locking mechanism release, fit keyed holes onto raised mounting buttons at bottom of enclosure. Slide forward and release locking mechanism to lock in place. Ensure brackets are locked securely. (Always face brackets in same direction as shown.) WARNING: Ensure that the bracket locking mechanism is fully seated after the bracket is installed on the luminaire.
VARI❋LITE® - VL2000™ SPOT LUMINAIRE USER’S MANUAL Installing in Truss: Step 1. Using two people, lift luminaire into mounting position. Step 2. Secure in place with truss hook. Ensure truss hook hardware that locks hook in place (e.g. wing bolt) is properly tightened and that luminaire is fully supported. Step 3. Attach safety cable (as required) as follows : a. Connect one end of cable to luminaire handle. b. Loop at least once around truss/pipe and attach other end of cable to other handle.
INSTALLATION : INSTALLATION PROCEDURES 2 Floor Mounting the Luminaire The luminaire enclosure is sufficient to stabilize the luminaire in a floor installation, provided that the mounting surface is flat and sturdy. Connecting Data and Power A maximum of 32 luminaires may be connected in any one DMX data link. Note: This maximum limit applies to the luminaire "daisy chain" only. Your system or console may require fewer luminaires on a single data link path.
VARI❋LITE® - VL2000™ SPOT LUMINAIRE USER’S MANUAL Powering Up Power-Up Procedure Since Lamp On is the default state, the lamp will strike when the luminaire is powered up for the first time. When AC power is applied, the luminaire will immediately begin a calibration sequence that steps it through full pan and tilt movements. The internal color, gobo, and beam mechanisms will also move through a full range of motion.
INSTALLATION : POWERING UP 2 Align Lamp for Flat Field The design of the VL2000 spot luminaire optical system is based on a flat field. A flat field is one where there is no detectable hot spot. After a new lamp is installed, it will be necessary to align the lamp to optimize the beam for the flat field. Knobs located at the luminaire’s backcap will allow adjustment. WARNING: Backcap and adjustment knobs will be HOT during lamp operation. Wear gloves and/or use tools to prevent burns.
VARI❋LITE® - VL2000™ SPOT LUMINAIRE USER’S MANUAL Set DMX Mode The VL2000 Series luminaires provide four modes for DMX operation. The mode is set using the luminaire’s Menu Display. • 8-bit Standard - provides one 8-bit DMX channel for control of each luminaire function. • 8-bit Enhanced - provides additional channels for timing control. • 16-bit Standard - provides 16-bit control for pan/tilt.
INSTALLATION : ADDRESSING 2 Addressing Program Starting Address The address setting for DMX console or Virtuoso console controlled systems is entered using the Menu Display. (Refer to “Menu System” chapter on page 51 for detailed instructions.) The luminaire retains the DMX and Virtuoso addresses that are stored even if power is removed. Note: Refer to your console operating instructions for specific information regarding its addressing requirements. Program a DMX or Virtuoso starting address: Step 1.
