Purpose of Manual

The purpose of this manual is to explain the necessary steps for using this fixture properly and
to assure peak performance of said product functions. It is intended for use as a reference by a
fully qualified electrician, technician, and lighting professional. This manual should never be
considered a substitute for any provision of a regulation, state and/or local code. The
responsibility of complying with all state and local laws, ordinances, and regulations in regards
to installation, maintenance, and operation of this product lies with the buyer and handler of the
product. The instructions and precautions set forth in this manual are not necessarily inclusive of
or relevant to all applications. Please read the entire manual to fully understand and safely use
this product.

Power

Do not apply power to the fixture until power source is verified. Do not attempt to use this
fixture if it appears damaged. For protection against electric shock, fixture must be
connected to suitable earth ground. Make sure fixture is disconnected from power mains
before any service.

This fixture automatically adjusts to mains voltage and frequency 100-240vAC 50/60Hz. The
listed power rating is its average wattage under normal conditions. All fixtures must be powered
directly from a switched circuit. This fixture cannot be run on a rheostat or dimmer circuit even if
used solely for a 0% to 100% switching. Before applying power to a fixture, check that the
fixture’s input voltage matches the power source voltage. Consult a qualified electrician if there
are any concerns about proper connection to power.

Basic Reference

Mounting

The supplied bracket allows for placement on a flat surface such as a table or for hanging
with optional clamp (not supplied).

Always use safety cables. Always consult a qualified professional when rigging.
Consider access for routine maintenance when selecting a mounting position. This
fixture may be mounted in any position provided there is adequate room for movement
and ventilation. Mount the fixture securely using the two mounting holes provided on
both sides of the base. This fixture features an adjustable base which allows the fixture to
be tilted at different desired angles. Always keep cords out of the way, thus preventing
any trip hazards. Secure all cables properly. Do not mount where the fixture will be
exposed to any water or condensing moisture, high humidity, extreme temperature
changes or restricted ventilation. Do not obstruct any of the heat sink vents.

Setup

Gobo Holder

The Gobo Holder uses Standard “E” size Gobos (1.5” / 37.5mm), Metal or Glass. The
fixture produces no significant heat or UV allowing self-printed custom designs on
transparent printer film. Two gobo holders are supplied with the projector.

Remove Gobo Holder

The gobo holder is held in place by magnets. Remove by grasping the scalloped edge of
the holder and carefully lift out.

Install Gobo Holder

Holding by the scalloped edges of the holder, gently set in place.

Changing Gobo

The gobo is held between two pieces that screw together. Unscrew the two pieces to
open the holder. Take care to not cross thread or over tighten.
When installed correctly, the gobo will be backwards when viewed
from the scalloped side of the Gobo Holder or front of the fixture
when installed.

Focus

Focus has separate adjustments for Coarse and Fine. Move the Focus assembly out for
nearer surfaces, and in for surfaces farther away. Best results are obtained by projecting
on a solid white or neutral colored surface.

Coarse

Coarse focus is set by pushing or pulling the
front lens assembly to achieve the best possible
initial focus. Indentations in the support rails
make clicking noises while adjusting. Careful not
to force the lens assembly against the maximum
travel stop.

Fine

Turning the front lens bezel in or out adjusts the
Fine Focus. Careful not to force the movement
at either end of its adjustment limit. If needed,
re-adjust the Coarse Focus and then return to
Fine.

Operation

Functions are set using the Buttons on the front of the projector or with the IR Remote.
Only the IR Remote allows for control of the Dimmer and BlackOut function. Settings are
automatically retained and the projector returns to the same state whenever power is
connected.

Projector Buttons

Two buttons are located on either side of the IR Remote Sensor on the front of the
projector. Single pressing will advance one “step.” For
larger changes, press and hold.

NOTE:

Dimmer level of the LED can only be changed using

the supplied IR Remote.

Maintenance

Make sure fixture is cool and disconnected from power mains before any service.

Weekly operating hours and environmental conditions will establish how often the fixtures need
cleaning. Fixtures should be cleaned and inspected at least once a month to maintain optimum
performance. Accumulation of dust and fog residue increases heat build up, can lead to
malfunctions, overheating and reduction in maximum light output, reduced fixture life and over
all performance. Before conducting any maintenance, disconnect fixture from power mains.

1) Disconnect fixture from power mains.
2) Use a vacuum with a soft brush to remove dust collected on external vents and internal
components. If using an air compressor, use low pressures and extreme care to prevent
damaging any internal parts or effects.
4) Clean all optical elements when the fixture is cold. Use a soft lint free cotton cloth or tissue
and cleaner safe for plastics.
5) Inspect clamps and safety cables to ensure fixture is secure and safe.
