1. WARNINGS AND INFORMATION
High voltage!
Before opening any part of the searchlight system, make sure all power is switched
off!
UV-light! (models -12, -21, -22)
The UV-light used by ColorLight is chosen for most efficient result in marine
applications. The wavelengths are below 400 nanometers, thus not visible for the
human eye. An intensive radiation is generated from the high luminance of the
arch inside the bulb and should not be glared into from close distance.
Intentionally ColorLight is allowing a small leakage of white light making the beam
vaguely detectable in fog. Avoid quick switch on and switch off as it may shorten
the lifetime of the bulb. Allow a couple of minutes cool down period, if possible.
UV-light overheat
CL25 and CL 35 searchlights are designed and built primarily for the marine
environment.
UV light generates a lot of heat and we use ambient air as a coolant for our lamp
body. For uses other than marine this must be taken into account so that sufficient
cooling is available or to adapt the operating time to prevent overheating damage
such as cracked UV glass.
Eye safe exposure time for UV
CL25-12, CL35-12: Max 2 minutes at 1 m. Max 4 minutes at 2 m. Max 9 minutes
at 4 m. Max 65 minutes at 9 m.
CL25-22, CL35-22: Max 1 minute at 1 m. Max 2 minutes at 2 m. Max 4 minutes
at 4 m.
Max 30 minutes at 9 m.
Welding eye glasses are recommended if you for some reasons have to expose
your eyes longer periods at those close distances.
We see no reason for such exposure even at service activities. Sunglasses are
also good protection.

Bulbs
When changing bulbs be sure to not touch the surface of the bulbs with bare
fingers. If inadvertently touched with bare fingers it should be degreased
immediately with alcohol and a soft lint free cloth. Be sure to wipe dry the bulb
surface afterwards.
Reflectors
The parabolic reflectors developed by ColorLight have an extremely smooth
surface to focus the light in wide or narrow beam. Bare fingers should never touch
the reflector surface. If inadvertently touched, the reflector surface should
immediately be degreased with alcohol and a soft lint free cloth.
Light beam heat damage
This searchlight is build for use on long distances and the high-intensity light from
the searchlight can, if set at a narrow beam, cause burn mark on surfaces closer
than 1 meter. To avoid that the searchlight is forgotten with the light on, always
use the feature “off and park” when not using the searchlight.
If protection hoods are used over searchlight body the system main power switch
in the electric box should be off; this is a precaution to reduce the risk of fire if the
hoods are not removed before turning the lights on.
Cleaning
Never wash the searchlight with water under high pressure because this can
penetrate through the seals and cause damage to mechanical and electrical
components.
Do not use strong solvents such as thinner or acetone to clean the searchlight
body or the operator panel.
Deicing
Removal of ice should be done with caution. Physical violence could
damage the front glass or the searchlight driving mechanics. Instead turn on
the lights and let the heat melt the ice.
Recycling and disposal
The bulbs used for models CL25 and CL35 contain mercury and must be recycled
or disposed according to applicable local and national regulations.

2. COLORLIGHT SEARCHLIGHT SYSTEM
ColorLight has with its newly developed control system for searchlights opened for a flexible and
future-proof system in which several searchlight assemblies (CL20, CL25 and CL35) and
operator panels can be connected to a dedicated network and communicate via the Ethernet
protocol.
Control-computers and navigation equipment are other examples of devices that can be part of
this network.
For external communication between the electrical box and its various controllers we use the
Ethernet protocol, but for internal communication between the box and searchlight we have
chosen to work with CAN bus technology.
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a network standard originally developed for the automotive
industry and with only two wires it‟s possible to transmit a variety of control data and
information.
The searchlights drive motors (horizontal and vertical) are of the type brushless servo motors,
with excellent performance, long lifetime and high reliability.
The motor drivers are located inside the searchlight and are of an "intelligent" type, which
constantly analyzes the motor condition, and if problems arise, such as tripped over current
protection; this will be presented as an alarm in the operator panel.

3. INSTALLATION
3.1 Physical handling of the searchlight
Lift only the searchlight by the temporary lift loop on top of the center house. Lifting at the lamp
houses may damage the construction. After safely fixed the searchlight, remove the lift loop.
3.2 Mounting of the anti-vibration dampers
The picture shows how the dampers are mounted to avoid vibrations that can damage the
mechanics and shorten the life of the bulbs. Searchlight installation without dampers is not
recommended and this can, if problems arise, affect the warranty.

3.3.5 CL25
The searchlights cable glands are rated IP68 but for extra protection during heavy weather
situations it‟s still recommendable to install the searchlight so the cable exits are facing the
stern.
The longer part of the lamp house peak shall be set down. This extra long peak is to reduce
disturbing reflections from the foredeck, if any.

5. DISPLAY SYMBOLS AND MESSAGES
Symbol for switched of white light.
Symbol for switched on white light.
Error symbol for white light indicates a problem during switch on or if the bulb
breaks down during operation. The operator has three switch-on attempts in a two
minute interval without setting the sum alarm output. This symbol is only valid for
CL25 and CL35 (CL20 does not have this feature).
Symbol for switched of UV light (black light). Only valid for CL25 and CL35 (CL20
does not have this feature).
Symbol for switched on UV light. Only valid for CL25 and CL35 (CL20 does not
have this feature).
Error symbol for UV light indicates a problem during switch on or if the bulb breaks
down during operation. The operator has three switch-on attempts in a two minute
interval without setting the sum alarm output. This symbol is only valid for CL25
and CL35 (CL20 does not have this feature).
Symbol for any electro-mechanic error. Might be referred as an over voltage or
over current for motor drivers. Communication error with motor drivers will result in
the same symbol. This error symbol can be reset by simply enter the main menu
and select status. Then press “dismiss”. If over current have occurred the problem
might be referred as a stucked lamp housing – check for any icing issues. Each
axis has its own symbol showing in upper left or right corner of the display.
Page 14 User’s Manual
This symbol indicates that the bulb has less than 200 hours left of expected
lifetime. This warning can be chosen by the operator to be shown or not. Please
see 11.8.4 Lamp life for more detailed instruction.
Each bulb has its own symbol showing in the lower left or right corner of the
display.
This symbol indicates that the expected lifetime of the bulb now has expired. The
only way to reset this symbol is by entering the “Usage Stats” menu at the
diagnostic display inside the electrical box. See 12.4 Category 3: Usage Stats
Certainly this reset should only be done together with a bulb replacement!
This symbol and a similar symbol indicate the direction of the lamp housing both
for the vertical axis and for the horizontal axis. The arrows in the shown symbol
indicate the elevation angle for the vertical axis according to the horizontal-plane.
For the horizontal symbol and axis these small arrows indicate if the housing is
directed to the left, front, right or back of the centerline.
If the arrows are replaced by question marks then the system needs to be
internally calibrated. This is the normal state after power up after a total power loss
to the system. The easiest way to do the internal calibration is by simply choose
the “Park” in the quick start menu, please see 10.5 Off and park.
