Note: The rotational speed of the Vortex 360 can be remotely c o n t ro l l e d
by plugging the power adapter into an electronic dimmer output (set the
power adapter to 12V for best results). However, the dimmer output
must be compatible for use with transformers. Please check with the
dimmer manufacturer before using the Vortex 360 in this fashion. Failure
to use a compatible dimmer can result in overheating and/or damage to
both the Vortex 360 and the dimmer.
OPERATION
The speed and rotation can be set by turning the potentiome-
ter (on top of the unit) clickwise for faster and counter clockwise for
slower. The direction of the rotation can be set by changing the
position of the toggle switch. There is also an off feature (center
position on the toggle switch) for changing gobos without having to
unplug the unit or dial down the speed to 0.
5
• Make sure gobos can rotate freely while in use.
Jamming of a gobo wheel can cause the motor to burn out.
• Make sure motor cover is facing the front of the fixture .
Failure to do so can result in motor overheating.
• Do not let Vortex 360 hang by power adapter cord.
• Always use a safety cable with the Vortex 360.
• After use, case may become very hot. If unit must be
handled, use h a ndle as it is a thermoplastic and will remain
cool to the touch.
• Do not use the Vo rtex 360 with a dimmer if the dimmer
is not rated for power adapters.
• Do not rapidly heat and cool glass gobos as this will
l i k e ly cause them to bre a k . Ensure that you are using
the flattest field p o s s i ble will also reduce change of breakage.
• Make sure power adapter cable is not touching any
p a r t of the f i x ture.
