• Installation
Make sure all the parts for fixing the projector are in a good state of repair.
Make sure the point of anchorage is stable before positioning the projector.
The safety rope, properly hooked onto the fitting and secured to the framework, must
be installed so that, if the primary support system fails, the fitting falls as little as
possible. If the safety rope gets used, it needs to be replaced with a genuine spare.
•Minimum distance of illuminated objects
The projector needs to be positioned so that
the objects hit by the beam of light are at least
2.5 metres from the lens of the projector.
•Minimum distance of flammable materials
The projector must be positioned so that any flammable materials are at least
0.1m (4”) from every point on the surface of the fitting.

performance and best meet your expectations and requirements.
• Maximum ambient temperature
For the fitting to operate well and reliably, the ambient temperature should not
exceed 35°C (95°F).
•IP20 protection rating
The fitting is protected against penetration by solid bodies of over 12mm (0.5”) in
diameter (first digit 2), but not against dripping water, rain, splashes or jets of water
(second digit 0).
• Protection against electrical shock
This fitting is classified in accordance with the type of protection against electrical
shock, in Class I. It must therefore be connected to a power supply system with
efficient earthing.
It is however recommended to protect the supply lines of the projectors from indirect
contact and/or shorting to earth by using appropriately sized residual current
devices.
• Connecting to the supply mains
Connection to the electricity mains must be carried out by a qualified electrical
installer.
Check that the mains frequency and voltage correspond to the frequency and
voltage stated on the electrical data label for which the projector is designed.
This label also gives the input power. Refer to this to evaluate the maximum number
of fittings to connect to the electricity supply in order to avoid overloading.
• Maintenance
Before starting any maintenance work or cleaning the projector, cut off power from
the mains supply.
After switching off, do not remove any parts of the fitting for 10 minutes.
After this time the likelihood of the lamp exploding is virtually null. If it is necessary to
replace the lamp, wait for another 15 minutes to avoid getting burnt.
The fitting is designed to hold in any splinters produced by a lamp exploding.
The lenses must be fitted and, if visibly damaged, they have to be replaced with
genuine spares.
• Temperature of the external surface
The maximum temperature that can be reached on the external surface of the fitting,
in a thermally steady state, is 90°C (194°F).
• Lamp
The projector mounts a high-pressure lamp that needs an external igniter.
This igniter is fitted onto the projector.
- Carefully read the "operating instructions" provided by the lamp manufacturer.
- Immediately replace the lamp if damaged or deformed by heat.
It is permissible to mount the fitting on normally flammable surfaces.

•Projector coding
Each ASTROSCAN requires 9 or 14 control channels. For these to be correctly
addressed to each projector it is necessary to code the projectors. This operation
needs to be carried out on each ASTROSCAN by switching the microswitches (32)
according to the table below.
Codes can be assigned with the projector off, although the operation will be easier
with the projector on, as the decade address corresponding to the binary code set
with the microswitches is shown on the 3-digit display (
30).
When the information of "
Total hours", "Bulb hours”, “Bulb strikes” and “Address" is
scrolling on the display and you use the DIL switches of the addresses (32), the
display will instantly show the new address selected. After a few seconds the above
information will start scrolling again if at least one of the above conditions remains.
On turning the TEST microswitch (
33) onto ON the projector runs a self-check,
during which the effects are mechanically reset with the projector on. At the end of
the operation, or whenever you want to interrupt this procedure, turn the TEST
microswitch back onto OFF.
When sending 0% levels to all channels, the unit will start an automatic re-calibration
after 2 seconds. This operation will reposition any effects to their correct settings.
The entire re-calibration cycle lasts approximately 35 seconds and can be stopped
at any time by simply setting a channel at a level above 0. It is recommended not to
interrupt re-calibration, but to let it end regularly, once 10 seconds have elapsed
from its start.

•Switching on the projector
After carrying out all the above operations, press the switch (29) checking it all
works properly.
At switch on, the software contained in the DMX Receiver microprocessor does a
checksum (automatic check) while the three figure display (30) is off and the three
LEDs (31) controlling the input signal are all on. After a few seconds, the projector
starts the mechanical zero setting of the effects. Only at the end of this procedure
it switches on (option 3 OFF), or you can switch on (option 3 ON) the lamp. At the
same time, if the checksum has had a positive result, a code corresponding to the
version of the DMX Receiver microprocessor (installed) appears on the display.
This code is displayed for about 5 seconds, then only one of the three LEDs
relating to the connected input signal stays on, while the following information
scrolls on the display once:

The above information can also be displayed by carrying out at least one of the
following operations:
• Setting all the DIL (Dual-In-Line) switches of the addresses (
32) onto zero.
• Activating the TEST procedure, turning the specific DIL switch (
33) ON.
• Setting the projector on blackout (20 channels starting from the selected starting
address, all at level zero).
About two minutes after the projector has been switched on, the luminous intensity
of the display (
30) decreases to 1/32 of the maximum value. The maximum
luminosity is restored automatically if you use the microswitches to select the
DMX address, set the options or activate the TEST function. Approximately two
minutes after the last operation listed above has ended, the luminosity of the display
decreases again.

has been switched on and “Address” is the selected starting address for the
projector control signals.
After the information has scrolled, the projector address will stay displayed.

•Zero setting the working hours and number of times the lamp is switched on
To zero the hours of the lamp’s life (“Bulb hours”) and the number of times it is
switched on (“Bulb strikes”) which are stored in the DMX Receiver microprocessor,
proceed as follows:
1. Set the TEST microswitch (
33) to the ON position.
2. Shift the option 1 microswitch (
38) from ON to OFF (or from OFF to ON) and vice
versa 3 times within a time of 6 seconds. If the procedure has been carried out
correctly, the three signal control LEDs (31) will light up simultaneously, while the
display (30) will go completely blank. This situation lasts for approximately
5 seconds.
3. Return the TEST microswitch (
33) to the OFF position.

• Changing the lamp
Open the re-lamping cover, loosen
the two side ring nuts (35) of the lamp
to be replaced and remove it from its
mountings (36).
Take the new lamp out of its package,
loosen the two side ring nuts (35) and
insert the lamp in its mountings (
36).
Finally, screw on the ring nuts.
WARNING: Do not touch the lamp’s
bulb with bare hands. Should this
happen, clean the bulb with a cloth
soaked in alcohol and dry it with a
clean, dry cloth.
IMPORTANT
: To distribute the beam of
light uniformly, the lamp needs to be
positioned with the protrusion (37) visible
on the bulb outside the optical axis
of the projector. For this purpose it is
recommended to turn the protrusion
towards the top cover
(18).
