Fixture Assembly

The 4Bank, Double and Single fixtures are comprised of a removable Louver, Reflector and

Lamp Harness.

The Louver and Reflector are held in place with Velcro fasteners. The Lamp Harness is secured by means of a ¼ turn fastener and two clips.

To Release the Lamp Harness

Remove the harness from 2 clips located under the reflector. Rotate the ¼ turn fastener clockwise to release harness.

The lamps can operate independent of the fixture allowing them to be built into sets or custom soft boxes or hand-held as a single tube for an eye-light.

WARNING: Always use safety-coated lamps to avoid injury if lamp breaks.

Inserting Lamps

Locking Lamp Connector:

Depress both tabs on lamp connector and apply to lamp pins.

Match the Harness color-codes at each end of the lamp.

Push lamps into the fixture’s Lamp Holder Clips.

Gelling the Fixture

6

Restricting the airflow around the lamps can cause the lamps to operate hotter. This increased heat will raise the lamp’s color temperature and green spike. Therefore, it is recommended to clip gels to the doors of the fixture.

Remove Louver. Do Not clip gels to louver.

Do Not block the fixture ends in a manner that restricts airflow.

Mounting the Fixture

The standard mount (MTP-KF41) comes with a

3/8” Lollipop that clamps into a grip head. The ball and socket mount allows the fixture to be oriented in a broad range of angles.

Align the center pin of the mounting plate to the center hole on the mating plate.

Rotate plate clockwise until the four shoulder rivets drop into the receptacle. A locking pin will snap into place when the plate is properly seated.

The yellow wire loops provide attachment points for a safety chain.

To remove the plate, pull up on the locking pin and reverse the mounting procedure.

A 180° turn loosens the orientation of the mount.

A right turn tightens the mount.

The tension on the lock lever may be adjusted by pulling the handle away from the mount.

This disengages the handle from the screw mechanism and allows the lever to be reoriented.

You can also use a screwdriver to adjust the tension.

Pull back on handle and adjust screw.

Lollipops are interchangeable.

Other Fixture Mounting Options

The grommet holes along the edge of the fixture are designed to allow the fixture to be screwed onto set walls.

Ballast Operation

WARNING!

1) ALWAYS TURN OFF THE BALLAST BEFORE connecting or

disconnecting Lamps, Harnesses or Extension Cables.

2) Use only with Sine wave inverters. Do not operate on SCR dimmers.

3) If powering the ballasts through a Dimmer Pack, set the Dimmer to

Non-Dim mode.

The Ballast requires 100-240VAC 50/60 Hertz on an earth grounded circuit;

The electronic Ballast operates at a high frequency of 25kHz. It is dead-quiet, instant-on and lightweight.

Cold Temperature Operation

The Ballast is designed to operate at temperatures from 14°F to 122°F

(-10°C to +50°C). In cold temperatures, the Ballast may not strike the lamp(s) instantly. Switch the Ballast to OFF, wait seven seconds and try again. If the Ballast does not strike after two or three attempts, turn off the Ballast, check that the Extension and Harness connections are secure and re-strike. Once operating for a few minutes, the lamps should re-strike instantly.

The Ballast operates remote from the fixture. Connect the Extension cable to the

Ballast and the Lamp Harness. After the lamps are properly installed, the Ballast can be turned on. Each switch controls one lamp. The color bands on the lamp harness correspond to the switches as illustrated.

Lamp Select Feature

The Ballasts have a 4ft/2ft switch. Set the selector switch to 4ft for 4ft lamps and 2ft for 2ft lamps.

When operating 4ft lamps in high ambient temperature or where the units are rigged into place with restricted airflow, the

2ft setting can be used to lower the color temperature and remove any green spike. The light drops about a half an f-stop in exposure when dropping from 4ft to 2ft.

It is not recommended to operate 2ft lamps in the 4ft setting. At the 4ft setting, the color temperature of the 2ft lamps will rise dramatically and experience a high green spike.

Extension Cable

To insert the cable, position the logo up to align the key ways on the extension cable with the circular receptacle on the ballast. Rotate the locking ring until it clicks into the lock position.

Lamps can operate as far as 75 feet from the ballast.

(3 x 25ft extensions)

A Splitter can be used at the Ballast or on the end of an

Extension Cable to split a 4Bank run into either four Singles or two Doubles. This allows for greater rigging flexibility.
