INSTALLATION AND START-UP
Connecting and disconnecting power cable - Fig. 5
Installing the projector - Fig. 4
The projector can be installed on the floor resting on special rubber feet, on a truss or on the ceiling or wall.
WARNING: with the exception of when the projector is positioned on the floor, the safety cable must be fitted. (Cod. 105041/003 available on request).
This must be securely fixed to the support structure of the projector and then connected to the fixing point at the centre of the base.

Switching on the projector - Fig. 8
Press the switch. The projector starts resetting the effects. At the same time, the following information scrolls on the display:
Model Firmware xxx (Fixture ID) System errors
MYTHOS Version X.X.X Dmx Address xxx E: .........................
Date - Hour W: .........................
On conclusion of resetting in case of absence of the dmx signal, Pan and Tilt move to the “Home” position (Pan 128 bit - Tilt 128 bit). The control
panel (Fig. 8) has a display and buttons for the complete programming and management of the projector menu. The display can be in one of two
conditions: rest status and setting status. When it is in the rest status, the display shows the projector’s DMX address and the Fixture ID address
(if set).
During menu setting status, after a wait time (about 30 seconds) without any key having been pressed, the display automatically returns to rest status.
It should be noted than when this condition occurs, any possible value that has been modified but not yet confirmed with the
F
key will be cancelled.

Connecting to the control signal line (DMX) - Fig. 7
Use a cable conforming to specifications EIA RS-485: 2-pole twisted, shielded, 120Ohm characteristic impedance, 22-24 AWG, low capacity. Do not use
microphone cable or other cable with characteristics differing from those specified. The end connections must be made using XLR type 5-pin male/female
connectors. A terminating plug must be inserted into the last projector with a resistance of 120Ohm (minimum 1/4 W) between terminals 2 and 3.
IMPORTANT: The wires must not make contact with each other or with the metal casing of the connectors. The casing itself must be connected to the
shield braid and to pin 1 of the connectors.

Reversal of the display - Fig. 9
To activate this function, press UP
B
and DOWN Ckeys simultaneously while the display is in the rest mode. This status will be memorised and
maintained even for the next time it will be switched on. To return to the initial state, repeat the operation all over again.
Setting the projector starting address
On each projector, the starting address must be set for the control signal (addresses from 1 to 512).
The address can also be set with the projector switched off.
Setting the projector Fixture ID
On each projector, the Fixture ID address must be set for an easy identification of the fixtures in an installation (ID from 1 to 255).
The Fixture ID address can be set with the projector switched off.

Periodical cleaning - Fig. 12
To ensure optimal operation and performance for a long time it is essential to periodically clean the parts subject to dust and grease deposits. The
frequency with which the following operations are to be carried out depends on various factors, such as the amount of the effects and the quality of the
working environment (air humidity, presence of dust, salinity, etc.).
Use a soft cloth dampened with any detergent liquid for cleaning glass to remove the dirt from the reflectors, from the lenses and filters. It is recommended
that the projector undergoes an annual service by a qualified technician for special maintenance involving at least the following operations:
• General cleaning of internal parts.
• Restoring lubrication of all parts subject to friction, using lubricants specifically supplied by Clay Paky.
• General visual check of the internal components, cabling, mechanical parts, etc.
• Electrical, photometric and functional checks; eventual repairs.
NOTE: keep a careful cleaning of the ''CMY/colour filters assembly'' to prevent rapid deterioration.

Lamp change - Fig 14.
Take the new lamp out of its package and insert in the fitting.
WARNING: do not touch the lamp’s envelope with bare hands. Should this happen, clean the bulb with a cloth soaked in alcohol and dry it
with a clean, dry cloth.
Lamp regulation - Fig. 15
To centre the lamp, turn the adjusting screw as shown in the figure.
WARNING: The lamp must be adjusted with the projector switched off. After adjusting, close the effects covers, switch on the projector and check
that the adjustment has been correctly made. If necessary, switch off the projector, remove the effects covers and repeat lamp adjustment.
REMARK:
- Lifetime of the lamp will be influenced by the switching cycle.
- After a successful starting, attempt to keep the lamp burning for at least 15 minutes in order to complete the chemical cycle of the
lamp to secure the lifetime.
- Before switch off the fixture, is necessary to keep closed the dimmer channel for at least 5 seconds, this is to ensure a better working
/ reliability of the lamp itself (it is recommended to turn off the lamp when it is dimmed).
WARNING:
• The projector needs to be positioned so that the objects hit by the beam of light are at least 18 metres (59’1”) from the lens of the projector.
A “Soft filter” is available (Channel 4 - Colour1 - DMX bit=50) when this ''Soft Filter'' is into the beam, the projector can be used at a
minimum distance of 12 metres from illuminated objects.
