INSTALLATION GUIDE
In order for the Triton illuminator to function safely and efficiently it must be installed according to this user manual. Please read all sections thoroughly before switching on the illuminator.
POWER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
Before plugging in the unit, please make sure that the supply is correct. Failure to do so could cause the unit to malfunction. The unit requires a 120VAC, 60Hz supply and it MUST BE GROUNDED. The illuminator power supply units are provided with a cordset fitted with a standard 3-pin plug.
POSITIONING THE UNIT
The Triton illuminator is only suitable for horizontal mounting, supported by its four mounting feet.
Verify that the supporting structure can safely bear the weight of all installed units, cables and any other equipment.

INSTALLATION GUIDE (Continued)
CONNECTION
There are 2 or 3 connections required, depending on the model - the fiber port and the line voltage power supply are required to be connected on all models. On units with a remote switch to control the colorwheel, that should also be connected.
Connect and secure the fiber optic connector to the fiber port before connecting the electrical supply or the remote switch. Never run the illuminator with the fiber connector unplugged.
After installing and connecting the unit as described above, plug the power lead into the line voltage supply and switch on. The illuminator will start up automatically.
Light will be output from the port connector and out through the fiber harness.
If no light is produced, please consult the TROUBLESHOOTING section in this manual.
CLEARANCE / VENTILATION
It is recommended that a gap of 200mm (8") or more is left around the unit. This is to allow air to circulate and prevent overheating. The location must have free ventilation.
COLORWHEEL
Colorwheel control depends on the model variation purchased:
UL-UFO-P - No colorwheel is fitted.
UL-UFO-PC - The colorwheel rotates continuously.
UL-UFO-PCS -The colorwheel can be switched on or off using the built in switch.
UL-UFO-PCR - The colorwheel can be switched on or off using the remotely located switch which is supplied with the unit.
UL-UFO-PCF - The colorwheel is controlled by a secondary mains electrical feed. It can be started and stopped on any colour by simply switching the power on or off.
