7. Fixture Cleaning

The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or particularly dirty surrounding can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the unit’s optics. y

Clean with soft cloth using normal glass cleaning fluid. y

Always dry the parts carefully.

y

Clean the external optics at least every 20 days. Clean the internal optics at least every 30/60 days.

6. Troubleshooting

Following are a few common problems that may occur during operation. Here are some suggestions for easy troubleshooting:

A. The unit does not work, no light and the fan does not work

1. Check the connect power and mains fuse.

2. Measure the mains voltage on the mains socket.

B. Not responding to DMX controller

1. DMX LED should be on. If not, check DMX connectors, cables to see if it link properly.

2. If the DMX LED is on and no response to the channel, check the address settings and DMX polarity.

3. If you have intermittent DMX signal problems, check the pins on connectors or on PCB of the unit or the previous one.

4. Try to use another DMX controller.

5. Check in the DMX cables run near or run alongside to high voltage cables that may cause damage or interference to DMX interface circuit.

C. Some units don’t respond to the easy controller

1. You may have a break in the DMX cabling.

2. Check the LED for the response of the master / slave mode signal.

D. No response to the sound

1. Make sure the unit that does not receive DMX signal.

2. Check microphone to see if it is good by tapping the microphone.

3. Sensitivity is too low, check and set it higher.

E. One of the channels is not working well

1. The stepper motor might be damaged or the cable connected to the PCB is broken.

2. The motor’s drive IC on the PCB might be out of condition.

F. The lamp is cutting out intermittently

1. The lamp is not working well. Check the mains voltage either too high or too low.

2. Internal temperature may be too high. Check and if necessary replace the fan.

y Don’t connect the device to any dimmer pack or power pack. y Do not touch any wire during operation as high voltage might be causing electric shock. y To prevent or reduce the risk of electrical shock or fire, do not expose the unit to rain or moisture. y Never touch bulb with bare fingers as it is very hot after using. y Hot lamp explosion hazard. Do not open the unit within five minutes after switching off. y Do not start on the unit without bulb enclosure or housing are damaged. y The housing, the lenses, or the ultraviolet filter must be replaced if they are visibly damaged. y Do not look directly at the light while the bulb is on.

Caution

There are no user serviceable parts inside the unit. Do not open the housing or attempt any repairs yourself. In the unlikely event your unit may require service, please contact your nearest dealer.

Installation

The unit should be mounted via its screw holes on the bracket. Always ensure that the unit is firmly fixed to avoid vibration and slipping while operating. Always ensure that the structure to which you are attaching the unit is secure and is able to support

10 times weight of the unit.

5.5 DMX512 Connection

The DMX512 is widely used in intelligent lighting control, with a maximum of 512 channels.

1. If you using a controller with 5 pins DMX output, you need to use a 5 to 3 pin adapter-cable.

2. At last unit, the DMX cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 ohm 1/4W resistor between pin 2(DMX-) and pin 3(DMX+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last unit.

3. Connect the unit together in a `daisy chain` by XLR plug from the output of the unit to the input of the next unit. The cable can not branched or split to a `Y` cable.

DMX512 is a very high-speed signal. Inadequate or damaged cables, soldered joints or corroded connectors can easily distort the signal and shut down the system.

4. The DMX signal is able to pass through each fixture continuously, so if one fixture in the chain is out of order, all the fixtures after this point will not be affected.

5. Each lighting unit needs to have an address set to receive the data sent by the controller. The address number is between 0-511 (usually 0 & 1 are equal to 1).

6. The end of the DMX512 system should be terminated to reduce signal errors.

7. 3 pin XLR connectors are more popular than 5 pin XLR.

3 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+)

5 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+), Pin4/5:

Not used.

2.1 Inserting/Exchanging rotating gobos

DANGER!

Install the gobos with the device switched off only.

Unplug from mains before!

Open the cover by loosening the fastening screw at the sides of the cover. If you wish to use other gobo patterns besides the standard gobos, or if the gobos are to be exchanged, remove the fixation ring with an appropriate tool. Remove the gobo and insert the new gobo. Press the fixation-ring together and insert it in front of the gobo.

CAUTION!

Never unscrew the screws of the rotating gobo as the ball

bearing will otherwise be opened!

In case of replacement of the lamp or maintenance, do not open the fixture within 15 minutes until the unit cools down after switching off.

MSI 575/ HMI 575 GS/ HMQ 575/2

Because of its high internal pressure, there might be a risk that the Discharge lamp would explode during operation. The lamp emits intense UV radiation which is harmful to the eyes and skin. The high luminance of the arc can cause severe damage to the retina if looks directly at the lamp.

1. Always switch off the mains supply and never handle the lamp or luminaries when it’s hot.

2. Do not touch the bulb with bare hands. If this happens, clean the lamp with denatured alcohol and wipe it with a lint free cloth before installation.

3. The lamp generates UV radiation. Never operate the lamp without appropriate shielding.

4. When burning, the lamp operates at high pressure and there is a slight risk of arc tube rupture. The risk increases with age, temperature and improper handling of the lamp. Do not use the lamp any longer than its specified life.

5.1 Master/Slave Built In Preprogrammed Function

By linking the units in master/slave connection, the first unit will control the other units to give an automatic, sound activated, synchronized light show. This function is good when you want an instant show. Its DMX input jack will have nothing plugged into it, and Its master LED will be constantly on and sound LED will flash to the music.

The other units will have to select (slave 1) or (slave 2) mode,

Their DMX cables plugged into the DMX input jacks (daisy chain) and the slave led lights will constantly on.

2-light show

In (slave mode), means the unit works like the master unit and

means 2-light show. In order to create a great light show, you can set

on the second unit to get contrast movement to each other, even if you have two units only.

5.2 Easy Controller

(Sold Separately)

The easy remote control is used only in master/slave mode. By connecting to the

1/4” microphone jack of the first unit, you will find that the remote control on the first unit will control all the other units as below.
