Calibrating effects
1. Apply power.
2. To calibrate focus, first remove the bottom head cover. Select
→→ and press [Enter].
Run the focus car to the rearmost limit of its travel (i.e. furthest back towards the lamp) where it is
pressing both end stop switches fully closed. Adjust the focus car forwards slightly until you hear an
audible click from the end stop switches as they open. Press [Enter] to save the setting. Replace the
bottom head cover.
3. Pan calibration is easiest when multiple fixtures are stacked vertically. To calibrate, set tilt positions for
easy one-over-the-other comparison and set each fixture to the same pan DMX value. Select one fixture
to be the reference fixture. On the other fixtures, select
→→ and press [Enter]. Adjust
the offset as necessary to align the beam with the reference beam. Press [Enter] to save the setting.
4. Tilt calibration is easiest when multiple fixtures are arranged horizontally. To calibrate, set pan positions
for easy side-by-side comparison and set each fixture to the same tilt DMX value. Select one fixture to
be the reference fixture. On the other fixtures, select
→→ and press [Enter]. Adjust
the offset as necessary to align the beam with the reference beam. Press [Enter] to save the setting.
Software upload
The upload mode command (→) prepares the fixture for a software update. This command is
not normally necessary, as upload mode is engaged automatically by the uploader.
LED indicators
See Figure 10 on page 17. The two LEDs on the right of the display give the following information:
DMX LED
The DMX LED lights when the fixture is receiving a valid DMX signal.
Service LED
The Service LED lights red if the fixture requires a service intervention. At the same time, a message will
appear in the display indicating the type of service required.
The Service LED blinks when the fixture is in factory service mode.
If lamp life warnings are enabled in the
→ control menu, the Service LED lights yellow 200
hours before the lamp reaches the end of its expected lifetime and lights red when the lamp reaches the end
of its expected lifetime. The expected lamp lifetime can be set in the
→ menu.
