Introduction Intro-1
ES-1 Feature Overview
USITT DMX-512 control
Full control over all operating parameters of ES-1 is achieved via 20 channels of DMX-512 protocol. This includes 16-bit accuracy for gobo indexing and 8-bit accuracy for all other parameters. All parameters are controlled by a built-in
Motorola® 68340 microprocessor.
Color capabilities Each of the two color wheels support five dichroic glass filters plus open. Custom color filters may be ordered from
High End Systems and are easily installed. These dichroic filters are interchangeable with EC-1, Studio Spot 575™
Studio Color® 575, and Cyberlight®.
Rotating lithos and rotating effects
Custom 575 watt discharge lamps
Special effect functions
ES-1 can project up to 35 combination patterns using 10 rotating litho/effects (plus two open) located on two independent wheels. Each wheel can be independently indexed and rotated in either direction at variable speeds.
ES-1 utilizes a custom MSD 575 lamp which provides a color temperature of 5600 K and enhanced lamp life.
Factory macros Complicated looks can be quickly programmed using one of the 26 factory-programmed macros. Each macro modifies a specific set of constructs to produce a unique effect, while allowing the user to retain control of all other constructs.
Sequences can be created by using an additional variable speed random macro.
Frost
Special effect functions provide color spins, random color combinations, random gobos, or MSpeed to control the color and litho wheels. The ‘blink’ function quickly strobes the dimming system during color and/or litho changes.
Dimming
A variable frost mechanism provides infinite beam diffusion.
Thus the hard edge beam is easily softened to create a wash effect. Frost effects include variable periodic, random periodic, variable ramp/snap, and random ramp/snap strobes.
A smooth mechanical dimming system provides seamless dimming without affecting the beam shape or the color temperature output.
Iris
Focus
An independent iris can remotely manipulate the beam diameter. Iris effects include variable periodic, random periodic, variable ramp/snap, and random ramp/snap strobes.
The variable remote focus lens can precisely focus on either litho/effect wheel at any distance.
Intro-2 ES-1 User Manual
Lenses
Strobing
Internal preset scene memory
L.E.D. display
The standard lens provides an 18° beam angles. Optional
13° and 30° lenses are available for narrow and wide field projection. All lenses feature advanced aberration correction. The aberration correction eliminates chromatic shifts, image distortion, spherical astigmatism, and provides an impeccably flat focus field.
The dimming system provides instant blackout, variable and random speed strobes, variable and random ramp/snap effects, and the blinking function. Additionally, ES-1 can dim while strobing.
Up to 16 scenes can be programmed for playback without a controller. Scenes can be programmed from the front panel or ‘captured’ from DMX data. You can playback data in stand-alone mode or synchronize playback with up to 32 fixtures.
A full function 15-segment four character alpha-numeric display allows the user to easily program all functions of the fixture. A full set of diagnostic functions are available through the menu system. ES-1 can also serve as a DMX tester to view channel values and DMX errors. The display can be remotely turned on, off, or dimmed via DMX.
L.E.D. status indicators
Mounting
Five L.E.D. indicators visually provide the status of the lamp power supply, motor power supply, and data.
ES-1 can be mounted on a foundation you build using the
EC-1 Installation Guide, or on a pole using the High End
Systems Pole Mount Kit.
Stepper motors All motors are digitally controlled steppers. They provide precision control, high torque, smooth movement, near quiet performance, and very long life.
Fixture shutdown, lamp control, and homing
Fixture shutdown, lamp on/off, and homing can be accessed remotely via DMX. You can also turn the lamp on or off and home the fixture with the front panel menu system.
Power factor correction
Ease of maintenance
ES-1 is fully power factor corrected to optimize the light source's efficiency and deliver maximized power economy.
ES-1 has been designed for the professional user. ES-1 is constructed on the solid premise of Studio Spot 575.
Changing the lamp is quick and convenient.
Software updates
Operating software can be uploaded from the Lightwave
Research Upload Dongle, the Status Cue® lighting console, or from another fixture, thus keeping the fixtures constantly updated with the latest version. The latest software version is available through the High End Systems World Wide Web
Site.
Introduction Intro-3
Safety The lamp cover is secured through its wiring harness for additional safety. Multi-point grounding is provided throughout for complete assurance of safe operation. The fixture and all electronics comply with current UL, ETL, C-

Obtaining Data Cabling and Terminators
To link a fixture to a controller or other fixtures, you must obtain data cabling.
You can either purchase cabling from High End Systems or construct your own
cabling. For more information, see “Optional Accessories” on page Intro-7 or
The last fixture in a link must have a 120 ohm, 1/4 watt (minimum) terminator attached to its Data Out connector. You can either purchase terminators from
High End Systems or construct your own terminators. For more information, see
“Optional Accessories” on page Intro-7 or “Constructing Terminators” on page
Chapter 1 Installation and Setup 1-9
Constructing Cabling
High End Systems recommends you use data-grade cable. Data-grade cable is designed to carry a higher-quality signal with less susceptibility to electromagnetic interference. Data-grade cables must be Belden following characteristics:
®
9841 or equivalent (meets specifications for EIA RS-485 applications) with the
• 2-conductor twisted pair plus a shield
• maximum capacitance between conductors - 30 pF/ft.
• maximum capacitance between conductor and shield - 55 pF/ft.
• maximum resistance of 20
Ω
/1000 ft.
• nominal impedance 100-140 Ω
Cable Connectors
If you construct cabling, you must use cable connectors with a male 3-pin
XLR connector on one end and a female 3-pin XLR connector on the other end. Pin one is the common (cable shield), pin two is the data
complement (negative), and pin three is the data true (positive) (see Figure
Figure 1-12. XLR 3-pin connectors
You should test each cable with a voltage/ohm meter (VOM) to verify correct polarity and to make sure that the negative and positive pins are not grounded or shorted to the shield or to each other. Also, make sure that pin 1 is shielded.
Caution: do not connect anything to the ground lug on the XLR connectors. Do not connect or allow contact between the common (cable shield) and the fixture’s chassis ground. Grounding the common could cause a ground loop and/or erratic behavior.
Constructing Terminators
You must terminate the last fixture in the link by placing a male XLR connector with a 120 ohm terminator in the fixture’s female Data Out connector. For synchronized playback, you must also terminate the first
1-10 ES-1 User Manual
fixture in the link by placing a female XLR connector with a 120 ohm terminator in the fixture’s male Data In connector.
You can construct a terminator by following the instructions below:

®
AF1000 xenon strobes, Intellabeam
®
fixtures, and
fixtures) block software uploads or crossloads on a link. Emulator
Therefore, make sure you put all of these devices after the ES-1 fixtures on the link. If you cannot move these devices after ES-1 fixtures on the link, remember to remove or bypass these devices when you want to perform software uploads or crossloads.
You will need:
• suitable length of DMX data cabling*
• suitable number of terminators*
*Note: for more information, see “Obtaining Data Cabling and Terminators”
To link a fixture to a controller and/or to other fixtures:
1. Connect the male XLR connector on the data cable to the controller’s Data
Out connector.
2. If you plan to control fixtures in stand-alone mode (without a controller), connect the male XLR connector on the data cable to the Data Out connector to the master fixture (i.e. the fixture addressed at DMX start channel 1 or fixture number 1).
3. Connect the female XLR connector of the same data cable to the first (or next) fixture’s Data In connector.
4. Continue using this method to connect all of the ES-1 fixtures on the link (see

Branch Mains Power Connections
WARNING: class 1 equipment: This equipment must be earthed.
ES-1 is shipped without a power cord cap attached. You can either wire the line cord for permanent connection to a power source or install a power cord cap and connect ES-1 to a standard electrical outlet (for indoor installations). For more information on ES-1 power requirements and on fitting user-supplied conduit or weatherized cabling directly to the ES-1 side panel connectors, see the EC-1
Installation Guide (p/n 60600125) shipped with the fixture. Note that the
instructions in the EC-1 Installation Guide also apply to the ES-1 fixture.
If you choose to install a power cord cap, the type of cap you need depends on the location and country in which ES-1 will be used. You should use a power cord cap with the correct voltage rating for 13 amps or more. Contact a local authority if you are unsure which type of power cord cap you need.
Install a power cord cap or permanently connect the cord to a power source in accordance with the following code:
• green and yellow - earth
• blue - neutral
• brown - live

Powering Up the Fixture
ES-1 does not have a power switch. To power up the fixture, simply connect it
DMX controller (see “Control Channel” on page 2-6). However, it is very
important that you electrically isolate the fixture before performing certain procedures as shown in this manual.
Homing the Fixture
When you connect ES-1 to an appropriately-rated power source, the fixture automatically begins its homing procedure to verify that the major functions of the fixture (color wheels, iris, and shutter) are working properly. During the homing process, you will hear clattering sounds as the wheels, iris, and shutter seek their home position. ES-1 also homes when you power up the fixture via a
DMX controller (see “Remote Homing” on page 2-7). To manually home ES-1 via
the on-board menu system, see “Homing the Fixture (HOME)” on page 3-13.
Selecting a Control Method
You must select a control method for each ES-1 fixture: either a DMX start channel (recommended) or a fixture number (for a link with fixtures that all use the same number of DMX channels in their channel range).
Note: once you choose a control method, you should use that same control
method for all the fixtures on a link.
Channel Range
There are 512 available channels on each DMX link. These 512 channels are divided among all the devices in a particular link. The number of channels each fixture requires is called the fixture’s channel range.
Chapter 1 Installation and Setup 1-13
Each ES-1 fixture reserves a block of 20 contiguous channels. Therefore, you can control up to 25 ES-1 fixtures (512 DMX channels available / 20 channels used by ES-1 = 25.6 fixtures per link).
You must assign a unique fixture address to each fixture that you want to respond independently to controller commands. The fixture’s channel range must not overlap any other device’s channel range on the link. When two devices on the same DMX link have overlapping channel ranges, one or both devices will be disabled or behave erratically.
Note: if you want two or more fixtures to respond to controller commands in
exactly the same way, the fixtures must be the same type (for example, two ES-1 fixtures) and must share the entire channel range.
DMX Start Channel Control Method
If you plan to combine different types of devices that use different numbers of channels on one DMX link, you should use the DMX start channel control method. Using the DMX start channel method allows you to assign an explicit start channel to each fixture, so no DMX channels are wasted. For
more information, see “Wasted DMX Channels” on page 1-16.
To select the DMX start channel control method:
1. Press and hold the <Menu> button until “ADDR” appears on the LED display.
2. Using the <Up> and <Down> arrow buttons, scroll to the “SET” menu and press the <Enter> button to select the “SET” menu.
3. Using the <Up> and <Down> arrow buttons, scroll to the “CHNL” menu and press the <Enter> button to select the “CHNL” menu.
4. Using the <Up> and <Down> arrow buttons, scroll to the “DMX” option and press the <Enter> button to select the “DMX” option.
Note: you must select a control method for each ES-1 fixture on the link.
Fixture Number Control Method
When you use the fixture number control method, each fixture “thinks” all other devices on the link use the same number of DMX channels that it uses.
Therefore, using the fixture number control method is a good idea only if you plan to link fixtures that all use the same number of DMX channels. For example, assign fixture numbers if you have a link that only controls ES-1 fixtures (or other devices that use 20 DMX channels). Otherwise, you may
waste DMX channels (see “Wasted DMX Channels” on page 1-16).
To select the fixture number control method:
1. Press and hold the <Menu> button until “ADDR” appears on the LED display.
1-14 ES-1 User Manual
2. Using the <Up> and <Down> arrow buttons, scroll to the “SET” menu and press the <Enter> button to select the “SET” menu.
3. Using the <Up> and <Down> arrow buttons, scroll to the “CHNL” menu and press the <Enter> button to select the “CHNL” menu.
4. Using the <Up> and <Down> arrow buttons, scroll to the “ADDR” option and press the <Enter> button to select the “ADDR” option.
Note: you must select a control method for each ES-1 fixture on the link.
Assigning a Fixture Address
The fixture’s address identifies each unique fixture’s channel range on the DMX link. After you have selected a control method, you must assign a DMX start channel or fixture number to each fixture:
• If you chose the DMX start channel control method for the fixture, you must assign each fixture a DMX start channel.
• If you chose the fixture number control method, you must assign each fixture a fixture number.
Determining the Unique DMX Start Channel
The DMX start channel is the first channel available to a fixture in its channel range. To determine each fixture’s DMX start channel in a link, you must know the number of channels used by each fixture (ES-1 uses 20 channels in its channel range).
Knowing that the first fixture on the link will use DMX start channel 1, you can determine the DMX start channel for each successive fixture by adding the number of DMX channels used by the fixture to the fixture’s DMX start
channel. For example, in Table 1-1, 20 (channels used by the ES-1) + 1
(DMX start channel for the first fixture) = 21 (DMX start channel for the next fixture on the link).

Determining the Unique Fixture Number
The fixture number is a number you assign that represents each unique fixture on the link. If you are using one DMX link to control fixtures which all use the same number of DMX channels (as recommended), you can assign fixture
numbers in ascending order (see Table 1-2).

3. Using the <Up> and <Down> arrow buttons, scroll to the desired fixture number and press the <Enter> button.
Wasted DMX Channels
If you mix different types of devices (which use different numbers of channel ranges) on the same DMX link and assign fixture numbers (instead of DMX start channels) to these devices, you would waste DMX channels.
For example, in Table 1-3, if you assigned fixture number 2 (F 02) to the EC-1
fixture, it would assume that all other fixtures on the link are also using 12 DMX channels, so it will erroneously try to receive channel 13 as the first channel in its channel range. This would create channel overlapping because fixture number 1 (ES-1) is already using channel 13 in its 20-channel range.
In this example, to prevent overlapping channels, you must assign fixture number
3 (F 03) to the EC-1, even though it is physically the second fixture on the DMX
1-16 ES-1 User Manual
link. While this would prevent overlapping channels, it would result in wasted
channels that could not be used (see Table 1-3).

Therefore, if you choose to assign fixture numbers to different types of devices
(and/or protocols) on the same DMX link, refer to “DMX Start Channels” on page
C-4, which shows the channel ranges reserved for ES-1 fixtures. This table will
help you determine the next available DMX start channel/fixture number for successive ES-1 fixtures on the link.
Controlling ES-1 With DMX
ES-1 may be controlled by 8- or 16-bit DMX controllers. Chapter 2 discusses ES-
1 operation with its protocol in detail. Use Table 1-4 to control ES-1 via DMX.

Operation
Color Functions
Color functions determine how each color wheel moves. Each color function can run at full speed or MSpeed.
Color functions are controlled by DMX channel 1 for color wheel 1 and channel 3 for color wheel 2. To simplify programming, you can use combined mode. In combined mode, set channel 3 to combined mode (0-15) and use channel 3 to assign the color function to both wheels simultaneously.
See Table 2-1 for the available color functions and descriptions.
Table 2-1. Color Functions
Function Description
Indexed
Continuous
Allows the color wheel(s) to take the quickest path and snap to whole and half colors.
Forward spin Allows variable speed forward spins.
Reverse spin Allows variable speed reverse spins.
Allows the wheel to rotate continually for one complete revolution (0-360°).
Combined continuous mode rotates both wheels to allow all 36 positions to be reached.
Fast scan
Slow scan
Random
Allows fast scans between whole and half colors.
Allows slow scans between whole and half colors.
Allows variable speed random color selection.
¹ Long crossfade and MSpeed times could result in undesirable effects as there will be no light output.
Note: combined mode will not allow colors to be combined with the aqua or
indigo positions because they do not mix.
Color Wheel Positioning
Color wheel positioning controls the movement of the colors wheels. Color wheel positioning is controlled by DMX channel 2 for color wheel 1 and channel
The factory color wheels contain the following dichroic colors:
Chapter 2 Operation 2-1
Color Wheel 1
• Position 1- white (open)

2-2 ES-1 User Manual
Litho Wheel Positioning
Litho wheel positioning controls the aperture to aperture (indexed) movement for each litho wheel. However, if a litho function is set for wheel spin or random, litho wheel positioning will not override these functions.
Litho wheel positioning is controlled with DMX channel 6 for litho wheel 1 and channel 10 for wheel 2.
The factory litho wheels contain the following patterns and effects:
Litho Wheel 1
• Position 1- open
• Position 2- Lava (cyan and magenta)*
• Position 3- Pick Up Sticks
• Position 4- Cones
• Position 5- Space Steppers
• Position 6- Dashing
*Note:the cyan and magenta Lava lithos are
combined to make up the Lava litho.
Litho Wheel 2
• Position 1- open
• Position 2- Lenticular effect glass
• Position 3- Five Facet Prism
• Position 4- Bright Stars
• Position 5- Teather Wall
• Position 6- Happy Dias
Note: litho wheel spin and random mode speeds
are controlled by the litho rotation channel.
Litho wheel 1 is located closest to the lamp.
Litho wheel 1
Litho wheel 2
Litho Rotation
Litho rotation uses 16-bit resolution for precise positioning. Litho rotation moves the lithos and moves the wheel in wheel spin and random modes.
Litho rotation for wheel 1 is controlled by DMX channel 7 for coarse positioning
(high byte) and channel 8 for fine positioning (low byte). Litho rotation for wheel
2 is controlled by DMX channel 11 for coarse positioning (high byte) and channel
12 for fine positioning (low byte).
See Table 2-3 for the available rotation options and descriptions.
Note: the litho rotation channels also control wheel spin, litho scan, and random
litho functions.

Focus
The variable focus mechanism physically moves the lens assembly. This allows both litho wheels to be brought in or out of focus from 1 meter to infinity. Due to the short focal distance between litho wheels, patterns can be easily morphed. Additionally, combination patterns can be created by mixing patterns and/or effects. Focus is controlled by DMX channel 14.

Chapter 2 Operation 2-5
Dimming
ES-1 has full dimming capability without changing the color temperature or the shape of the projection. This is accomplished with dimming flags that are positioned out of the focal length. Dimming is linearly scaled with 256 values to provide smooth and accurate motion. Dimming is controlled by DMX channel
17.
MSpeed
MSpeed (movement speed) is a separate timing construct provided on all automated Lightwave Research fixtures. MSpeed is the amount of time required to complete movement(s) from one position to another. All fixtures that have the same MSpeed value reach their destination at the same time, regardless of the distance traveled. Because MSpeed allows the fixture to control its own movements, the motion will be extremely smooth because it is not dependent on
DMX refresh rates.
MSpeed can be selectively applied to color selection, litho selection, and litho rotation. MSpeed is controlled by DMX channel 18. To determine exact MSpeed
times, see “Converting DMX Values to MSpeed Times” on page C-1.
Factory Macros
Complicated looks can be quickly programmed by using one of the 26 factoryprogrammed macros. Additionally, sequences can be created using the variable speed random macro which randomly plays all 26 macros. Each macro modifies a specific set of constructs to produce a unique look, while allowing you to retain control of all other constructs.
When a macro is in use, you will be unable to manipulate the constructs it controls. For example, if you turn on Macro x and it sets Litho wheel 1 to position 5 and rotates it forward at 20 r.p.m., you will be unable to change the litho position, rotational direction (function), and rotational speed.
Macros are controlled by DMX channel 19.
Control Channel
The control channel allows you to access and control special fixture functions using your DMX controller.
The control channel is controlled by DMX channel 20. See the following subsections for control channel parameters.
2-6 ES-1 User Manual
Remote Display Adjustment
To remotely adjust the alpha-numeric display intensity:
1. Set DMX channel 20 (shutter) to a value of 0 on the appropriate fixture(s). This will unlock channel 20 (control).
2. Set DMX channel 20 to the desired value for at least one second:
• Off: 20-28
• Dim: 30-38
• Bright: 40-48
3. Set DMX channel 16 to any value other than 0.
4. Set DMX channel 20 to 0 (safe).
Note: to manually adjust the display intensity (using the front panel), see
“Setting Display Intensity (DSPL)” on page 3-17.
Remote Homing
Homing is the process of recalibrating the fixture’s mechanical positions. This ensures that fixtures attain the correct positions from DMX data.
To remotely home a fixture:
1. Set DMX channel 16 (shutter) to a value of 0 on the appropriate fixture(s). This will unlock channel 20 (control).
2. Set DMX channel 20 at 60-68 for approximately one second. The display will indicate R S T (reset), strike the lamp if it is off, and the display will indicate H O M E while all motor systems reset. After the fixture has homed, it will return to its programmed position.
3. Set DMX channel 16 to any value other than 0.
4. Set DMX channel 20 to 0 (safe).
Note: to manually home the fixture (using the front panel), see “Homing the
Remote Lamp Control
If you extinguish the lamp while the fixture is operating, you must allow the lamp to cool for approximately 10 minutes before it can restrike.
To remotely restrike or extinguish the lamp:
1. Set DMX channel 16 (shutter) to a value of 0 on the appropriate fixture(s). This will unlock channel 20 (control).
2. Set DMX channel 20 at 80-88 to restrike the lamp or at 90-98 to extinguish the lamp for at least 3 seconds.
3. Set DMX channel 16 to any value other than 0.
Chapter 2 Operation 2-7
4. Set DMX channel 20 to 0 (safe).
Note: to manually use the lamp functions (from the front panel), see “Turning
the Lamp On and Off (LAMP)” on page 3-14.
Remote Shutdown
ES-1 can be remotely shutdown via a DMX controller. When a fixture is shutdown, the lamp is extinguished, power to the motor systems is removed, and the front panel display and indicators are turned off. Fixture shutdown allows you to remotely deactivate a fixture or a range of fixtures without manually turning off each breaker. Once a fixture is shutdown, you must home the fixture to bring it back into operation.
To shutdown a fixture, complete the following procedure:
1. Set DMX channel 16 (shutter) to a value of 0 on the appropriate fixture(s). This will unlock channel 20 (control).
2. Set DMX channel 20 to a value of 120-130 (50%) on the appropriate fixture(s). The value must be sent for approximately 3 seconds before the fixture(s) will shutdown.
3. Set DMX channel 16 to any value other than 0.
4. Set DMX channel 20 to 0 (safe).

Menu System
Overview
ES-1’s four navigation buttons on the display panel allow you to navigate
through the on-board menu system (see Figure 3-1). As you navigate the
menu system, the alpha-numeric display will show the menu items you select from the menu map. alpha-numeric LED display
<Up> arrow button: scroll upward through menu items or options
<Down> arrow button: scroll downward through menu items or options
MENU ENTER
<Menu> button: move back to the previous menu level
(press and hold to enter the menu system)
<Enter> button: select the curent menu item or option
Figure 3-1. Use the <Menu>, <Enter>, <Up>, and <Down> keys to navigate through the menu system
The alpha-numeric display will flash when a new option is selected (by pressing the <Up> and <Down> arrow buttons), and will stop flashing when a new option is entered (by pressing the <Enter> button).
Note: if you do not press the <Enter> button, the new option you selected will
not be stored.
Pressing the <Menu> button returns you to the previous option or menu
without changing the value of an option.
Accessing the Menu System
To access the menu system, press and hold the <Menu> key until “ADDR” appears on the LED display. The menu system is protected against inadvertent menu changes by requiring the <Menu> button to be held for a few seconds before allowing entry to the menus.
To exit the menu system, you must keep pressing the <Menu> button to back out of each menu level until “MENU” appears on the LED display.
“MENU” will be replaced, after a few seconds, with the default alternating display of the fixture’s software version and the fixture number/DMX start channel.
Note: the words “AUTO” and “LOCK” will appear briefly on the display after
“MENU.” As mentioned above, the fixture’s software is “locking” the display after you have accessed the menu system.

Preset Scenes
Overview
Each ES-1 fixture can store and play back up to 16 preset scenes. Scenes can be played back independently on any fixture without a DMX controller or up to
32 supported fixtures can be synchronized together with a data link.
Understanding Preset Scene Terminology and Concepts
Before you begin using preset scenes, it is important that you read and understand the following terminology and concepts:
• a scene is a combination of constructs and timing controls.
• a construct is a unique fixture feature—for example, focus, color or rotating effects.
• a sequence is two or more scenes that continuously repeat (also known as a loop or a chase). Sequences will continue to play back until you turn the fixture off or manually stop playback.
• you must create sequences without skipping a scene. The fixture will automatically restart the sequence when it encounters the first unprogrammed scene.
• each value is permanently stored in memory until you change it (i.e., you do not have to ‘save’ each scene after it is edited).
• if power is removed during playback, when power is reapplied the fixture will home and begin playback at the first scene.
Editing Scenes
Editing allows you to create preset scenes by manipulating ES-1’s constructs and timing controls. There are three ways to edit scenes:
• menu system
• copying and pasting an existing scene
• capturing construct data from a DMX controller
Note:
if you capture a scene from a DMX controller, you must use the fixture’s on-board menu system to edit the timing controls (XFAD,
DLAY, and MSPD).
The editing methods are discussed in detail in the following subsections.

4-2 ES-1 User Manual
Using the Time Parameter
The T I M E parameter determines the unit of time used in each scene for crossfade and delay. Choose from the following options:
• S E C - seconds
• M I N - minutes
• H O U R - hours
Crossfade and delay values can be set from 0.1 to 166. MSpeed values can be set from 0.15 to 252.7.
Using Crossfade, Delay, and MSpeed
Crossfade, delay, and MSpeed are independent timing elements in each preset scene. Crossfade and MSpeed determine the amount of time a construct takes to move from one position (value) to another, while delay is the length of each scene.
MSpeed can be selectively applied to color selection, litho selection, and litho rotation. Crossfade controls the timing for all other constructs. This allows you to program constructs that will reach
their destinations at different times within one scene. See Figure 4-
Tip: to make circular and ballyhoo motions with fixtures, experiment with
setting Delay less than MSpeed.

Synchronizing Preset Playback
ES-1 provides synchronized playback for up to 32 supported fixtures. Supported fixtures include:
• ES-1
• EC-1
• Studio Spot 575
• Studio Color 575
• Studio Spot 250
• Studio Color 250
• Technobeam®
• Technopro™
• Technoray™
Note: you should not connect more than 32 fixtures per link for synchronized
playback.
Synchronized playback is accomplished by a proprietary time code signal generated by the master fixture and sent to the slave fixtures via DMX cables.
The time code signal is similar to SMPTE and uses a 30 frame per second clock
(non-drop frame).
The master fixture determines the total sequence length from the sum of its delay times. When the master fixture reaches the end of its last scene, all fixtures will restart at scene 1 and the clocks will be reset to zero. Thus playback is not dependent on the number of programmed scenes or the sequence length of the slave fixtures.
If the sequence length of slave fixture(s) is less than the master’s, the slave fixture(s) will repeat their sequence until the master fixture resets the clock
(slave 1 in Figure 1-2). If a slave fixture’s sequence is longer than the master’s,
the slave fixture will restart its sequence before it has completed its entire
sequence (slave 2 in Figure 1-2).

LithoPattern, Gobo, and Effect Installation
To install LithoPatterns, gobos, or effects:
1.
To access the litho wheels, follow steps 1-6 in the section titled “Dichroic
2.
Locate the litho wheels (see Figure B-7).
3.
Rotate the desired wheel so that the litho or effect you want to replace is easy to access.
4.
Locate the spring securing the litho or effect to the wheel. Pull the spring
tip towards the center of the litho (see Figure B-12). The spring will release
from its groove inside the aperture.
5.
Remove the spring and litho/effect from the aperture.
6.
Place the new litho, effect, or gobo into the aperture and replace the spring. If you are installing a litho, insert it with the coated side away from the lamp. To determine the
However, if you are installing an effect, insert the effect with the smooth side towards the wheel (and the spring touching the textured or
“bumpy” side).

DMX Start Channels
Table C-2 lists the DMX start channels for ES-1 fixtures using either a controller
that supports ES-1 fixtures or a controller that only supports Studio Spot 575 fixtures. This table assumes that all ES-1 fixtures will be assigned to the same link, one after another. Keep in mind, however, that if you mix different devices on the same link, those devices may have different channel ranges that could overlap the sequence listed below and cause the devices to behave erratically.
