Introduction

Thank you for selecting a LED luminaire of the L5-series from

Introduction

ARRI. The products of the L5-series are fresnel-luminaires
equipped with a high precision, micro-processor controlled
LED light source. The L5-series is a perfect and easy replace­ment for conventional fresnel-luminaires with tungsten lamps.

The L5-series combines the advantages of the LED technology
with the ease of use of a traditional fresnel-luminaire. The
L5-series integrates seamless into established working prac­tice. LED luminaires are much more efficient than light sources
with conventional tungsten lamps. The optical system offers
real fresnel characteristics with an extreme smooth beam and
clean shadows. The half peak angle can be adjusted continu­ously from 15° - 50°.

The products of the L5-series emit white or colored light with
adjustable color temperature and adjustable green / magenta
saturation. Please find more detailed information in chapter
“Specifications” on page 48. The light spectrum is optimized for
excellent color rendition and fulfills perfect the demands of
modern, digital cameras. All models of the L5-series can be
controlled using the common DMX512-A protocol or the fixture
menu.

The products of the L5-series can be powered by AC power,
low voltage DC power sources and battery packs. Please find
more detailed information about the use of battery packs in the
section “Power” on page 17.

Features

Focus

Traditional fresnel-luminaires are able to spot and flood the
beam as needed. Whether it is a flood field for a pullback or a
tight spot for a bright highlight, the continuous focusability of
the ARRI L5 performs just as expected.

Versatile beam characteristics

The ARRI L5 provides the same ability as conventional fresnel­luminaires to cut set elements and shape the beam with barn­doors and flags.

Even light field

Clean, defined shadows have traditionally been a trait only of
single source tungsten and daylight fixtures. ARRI L5 fresnel­luminaires provide the same single shadow properties lighting
designers expect, delivering natural results.

Vibrant colors, full spectrum lighting

True-to-life color rendition i s an o ut s ta nd i ng feature of the
L5-series, comparable to a full spectrum tungsten source. The
fully tuneable white light of the ARRI L5-C can be adjusted for
different skin tones, camera sensors and mixed light environ­ments. Full gamut color mixing enables the rendition of all color
shades, making color filters dispensible.

Cool light beam

Like all LED light sources the ARRI L5 does not emit infrared
or UV radiation and thus does not forward heat, making actors
feel comfortable in the light beam.

Properties

Focus knob

The TRUE BLUE style focus knobs provides precise adjust­ment and rapid flood-to-spot with only three turns. Knobs on
both sides of the fixture ensure easy access from all positions.

Sliding stirrup

The sliding stirrup design enables precise compensation for
front end accessories.

Yoke

With an extreme slim profile, the extruded aluminum yoke pro­vides high strength without added weight. An optional, pole op­erated yoke allows full operation of pan and tilt from the floor
and is therefore a popular choice for many studios.

Tilt-lock

The high strength tilt-lock provides extreme secure locking. It
eliminates movement and slippage and ensures that the fix­tures will stay where you put them.

DMX-control

All functions of the ARRI L5 are controllable through DMX. The
ARRI L5 is also fully RDM compatible and is equipped with a
feedback channel for reporting all set parameters including
system status.

Fixture menu

For location applications the ARRI L5 is equipped with a fixture
menu for manual adjustment of intensity, color temperature
and plus/minus green as well as hue and saturation (functions
available depending on type).

Unpacking

The ARRI L5 is supplied with:

• Power cable with power plug or bare ends

• Stirrup

• Short 28 mm spigot with 16 mm hole (mounted on
p.o. stirrups)

• Short instructions

Please refer to chapter “Accessories” on page 49 for more in­formation about optional accessories.

Physical Installation

WARNING! Attach an approved safety-cable to
secure the product against clamp or bracket failure.
Lead the safety-cable through the stirrup and keep it
as short as possible. The safety-cable needs to be
approved at least 10 times the weight of the product

Physical Installation

including all accessories mounted at the product.
Secure all accessories mounted at the product with
additional safety-cables to protect them from fall
down and cause injuries and damages.

WARNING! The rigging structure needs to be
approved for at least 10 times the weight of all
devices, equipment and cables installed on it.

IMPORTANT! Do not illuminate the display and the
fresnel-lens by high power light beams from a short
distance. The display and the light engine are dam­aged by high brightness and heat radiation within
very short time.

To adjust the stirrup

You need

• a Torx20 screw driver,

• a 10 mm allen key and

• a torque wrench (37 ft-lbs)

to adjust the stirrup.
On delivery the stirrup is in the basic position (tilted back).

Loosen the Torx20 screws on both sides of the stirrup bracket
slightly and pull the stirrup bracket towards the rear of the pro­duct. Loosen the lever of the tilt-lock and tilt the stirrup
upwards.

Slide the stirrup to the point of balance. The point of balance is
dependent on the accessories mounted at the product. Tighten
both Torx20 screws of the stirrup brackets. Do not overtighten
the screws. Tilt the stirrup to the desired position and tighten
the tilt-lock by using the lever. For better leverage, press the
knob on the tilt-lock-lever and turn the lever to the desired po­sition.

To mount the spigot

Place the spigot and the distance plate on the 13 mm hole in
the middle of the stirrup. Insert the allen screw with washer and
spring washer and tighten it with a torque wrench to 37 ft-lbs
torque.

14

To mount the device

Always observe all safety information listed in chapter “Physi­cal Installation” on page 14 when you mount the product and
accessories:

Be aware of the maximum tilt angle 90° upwards and 90° down­wards.

Ensure that you install all accessories correct when you mount
the product above floor level:

• Top latched locked, safety catch snapped in.

• Set up tripods in a stable position. Tripods need to be ap­proved for the load they need to carry.

• Always observe the additional load of cables and accesso­ries!

ATTENTION! Lateral load can cause deformation or
breaking of the spigot and the stirrup!

Please observe the information given in the „Safety
leaflet ARRI lampheads“ (L5.40731.E), which is available for
download on our web site www.arri.com.

To mount the safety cable at the p.o. stirrup

WARNING! For protect ion from electric sho ck, always
connect the product electrically to ground (earth)
when connected to AC power. The AC mains power
supply must be fitted with a fuse or circuit breaker
and ground-fault (earth-fault) protection.

IMPORTANT! Ensure that persons do not look at the
light emission aperture when the product is con­nected to AC power or a battery pack. The product
can light up suddenly. The high intensity of the
ARRI L5 can cause eye irritation or injury when not
respecting the safety distance.

IMPORTANT! Always connect the ARRI L5 direct to
AC power. Do not connect it to a dimmer-system.
Doing so will damage the product.

AC power

The products of the L5 series have an auto-sensing switch­mode power supply that automatically adapts to AC power
at 90 - 264 V ~, 45 - 65 Hz (nom.).

Before you connect the product to AC power or a battery pack,
check that:

• the dimmer knob at the fixture menu is set to 0%, and

• no DMX signal is present at the DMX-input of the ARRI L5.

Tips for the use of battery packs

The ARRI L5 draws 115 W power at full intensity. Use the fol­lowing rule of thumb to calculate the likely operating time with
a fully charged battery pack at constantly 100% brightness:

Operating time [min]

(capacity [Ah]*nom. voltage [V]*54

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -=
115 W

It is not possible to calculate the operating time exactly when
brightness changes often. The possible operating time is de­pendent from age, state of charge and type of the battery pack.

DMX control

DMX mode

The ARRI L5 series offers, depending on the model, up to 15
DMX modes. Use the 8 bit modes with basic DMX controllers
like dimmer consoles. The most common modes for operation
via DMX are mode 1 and mode 2.

ARRI recommends the use of the 16 bit modes in combination
with DMX controllers supporting 16 bit resolution to obtain best
results. The high resolution provides smooth dimming and pre­cise color adjustments.

The coarse/fine modes utilize two DMX channels for most pa­rameters and provide higher resolution compared to the 8 bit
modes in combination with DMX controllers that do not support
16 bit resolution. One channel sets the coarse value of the
function which is divided in 256 increments using the fine chan­nel.

The setting can be changed any time using the rotary knobs of
the fixture menu.

White and RGBW

This is the most common mode of operation. It provides control
of intensity, color temperature, +/- green and individual chan­nels for controlling the red, green, blue and white color.

White

Simple white-only mode. It is used when the number of avail­able channels of the DMX controller is very limited. It provides
control of intensity, color temperature and +/- green.

White & HSI

Provides control of intensity, color temperature, +/- green, hue
and saturation (HSI = hue, saturation, intensity). In HSI mode
the color and intensity is very even over the fixtures as it is con­trolled using color algorithms which take the tolerances of the
light engines into account during calculation.

RGBW

Simple mode for controlling red, green, blue and white when
only a limited number of DMX channels is available.

HSI

Simple mode for controlling hue, saturation and intensity when
only a limited number of DMX channels is available.

Please find a detailed description of all modes in chapter
“DMX protocol” on page 36.

Note: Depending on the selected DMX mode the channels re­quired for each product should be allocated in the DMX control­ler to provide independent control of all products connected to
the controller.

DMX data link

Tips for reliable data transmission

For controlling the ARRI L5 via DMX you need a DMX data link.
The ARRI L5 has 5-pin locking XLR sockets for DMX and RDM

DMX data link

data input and output. The default pin-out of both sockets is:
Pin 1 = Shield

Pin 2 = Data - (cold)
Pin 3 = Data + (hot).

Pins 4 and 5 are not used by the ARRI L5 but are bridged be­tween input and output sockets. These pins can therefore be
used as a pass-through connection for an additional data sig­nal if required.

Pin 4 = Data - (cold)
Pin 5 = Data + (hot).

The limitation of 32 products per data link is not applicable for
the ARRI L5. You must not connect more than 256 products
per data link. Depending on the channel requirements the ad­dress space of a data link (512 channels) may not be enough
to control all products connected. You may set more than one
product to identical DMX addresses to obtain identical behav­ior. For independent control every product needs to be as­signed an individual address range.

If you need to control more products individual, you need to set
up additional DMX data links.

• Use shielded twisted-pair cable designed for RS-485 devices:
standard microphone cable cannot transmit control data reli­ably over long runs. 24 AWG cable is suitable for runs up to
300 meters (1000 ft.). Heavier gauge cable and/or an amplifi­er is recommended for longer runs.

• To split the data link, use a DMX splitter.

• Install a DMX termination plug on the last product of every
DMX data link.

To connect the data link

IMPORTANT! When using the 5-pin XLR data input,
do not use the data input of the 4-pin powerDMX at
the same time and vice versa. When the ARRI L5
receives control signals on both data inputs it will
behave strange and erratically. Y ou will not be able to
control the ARRI L5 via DMX.

• Connect the DMX data output from the controller to the data
input (male XLR) of the ARRI L5.

• Run the data link from the data output (female XLR) to the
data input of the next product.

• Terminate the data link by connecting a 120 Ohm, 0.25 Watt
resistor between the data 1 hot (+) and cold (-) conductors
(and between data 2 hot and cold if used) at the data output
of the last product on the link.

If the fixture menu is working, error E.011 can be ignored. However, if the fixture menu
remains dark (no LED lights up) we recommend to contact the ARRI service. They can
then carry out detailed analyses.

One or more temperature sensors are defective or the deviation within the individual NTCs
or BNTCs exceeds the variation tolerance of 12° C / 54° F. Check the error log (LSeries
Manager) to see which temperature sensors are affected. Contact the ARRI service.
