SAFETY INFORMATION
• Installation
Make sure all parts for fixing the projector are in a good state of repair.
ake sure the point of anchorage is stable before positioning the projector.
M
The safety chain must be properly hooked onto the fitting and secured to the framework, so that, if the primary
support system fails, the fitting falls as little as possible.
If the safety chain 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 18 metres
(59’1”) from the lens of the projector.
Minimum distance from flammable materials
•
The projector must be positioned so that any flammable materials are at least 0.20 metres (8") from every point on
the surface of the fitting.
• Mounting surfaces
It is permissible to mount the fitting on normally flammable surfaces.
• Maximum ambient temperature
Do not operate the fixture if the ambient temperature (Ta) exceeds 40° C (104° F).
IP20
tc100°C
• IP20 protection rating
The fitting is protected against penetration by solid bodies of over 12mm (0.47”) in diameter (first digit 2), but not
against dripping water, rain, splashes or jets of water (second digit 0).
• Protection against electrical shock
Connection must be made to a power supply system fitted with efficient earthing (Class I appliance according to
standard EN 60598-1).
It is, moreover, recommended to protect the supply lines of the projectors from indirect contact and/or shorting to
earth by using appropriately sized residual current devices.
• Connection to mains supply
Connection to the electricity mains must be carried out by a qualified electrical installer.
Check that the mains frequency and voltage correspond to those for which the projector is designed as given on
the electrical data label. This label also gives the input power to which you need to refer to evaluate the maximum
number of fittings to connect to the electricity line, in order to avoid overloading.
• 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
100°C (212°F).
• 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, to avoid getting burnt for at least 35 minutes.
After this time the likelihood of the lamp exploding is virtually nill.
The fitting is designed to hold in any splinters produced by a lamp exploding. The lenses must be mounted and, if
visibly damaged, they have to be replaced with genuine spares.
MYTHOS
Risk Group 1
According to
EN 62471
• Lamp
The fitting mounts a high-pressure lamp that needs an external igniter. This igniter is fitted onto the apparatus.
- Carefully read the "operating instructions" provided by the lamp manufacturer.
- Immediately replace the lamp if damaged or deformed by heat.
• Photobiological Safety
CAUTION. Do not look directly at the light source.
Do not look at the light beam with optical devices or any other tool that could cause light convergence.
The fixture must be positioned so that the minimum distance between the front lens and human eye is at least 3
metres to prevent personal photobiological risks.
This product is intended for the following areas of application:
studios, stages, theaters, exhibitions, trade fairs, events, theme parks, entertainment venues, architectural lighting
and similar.

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 3 or 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.

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 50% - Tilt 50%). 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
key will be cancelled.

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.

WARNING:
• 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).
• 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 on the Supersharpy (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.
15
ATTENTION:
- Before use custom gobos contact Clay Paky;
- The original gobos have a special coating designed specifically to resist to the high temperatures in the Prima Supersharpy;
- The rotating gobo wheel only use dichroic glass gobos (it is not possible to use metal gobos);
- For more information contact Clay Paky; - Fig. 15
