-Minimum distance from flammable materials: 1 MT.

-Minimum distance from the closest illuminable surface: 0,5 MT.

-Replace any blown or damaged fuses only with those of identical value. Refer to the wiring diagram if there is any doubt.

-Connect the projector to mains power via a thermal magnetic circuit breaker.

7.2 Prevention of electric shock:

-High voltage is present inside the unit. Unplug the unit prior to performing any function which involves touching the inside of the moving head.

-The level of technology inherent in the NICK NRG 501 requires the assistance of specialised personnel for all servicing. Please refer to an authorised D.T.S. service centre.

-A good earth connection is essential for proper functioning of the projector.

-Never connect the unit without proper earth connection.

-The fixture should be located in places with a good air ventilation.

7.3 Safety:

-The projector should always be installed with bolts, clamps and other tools that are capable of supporting the weight of the unit.

-Always use a second safety cable to sustain the weight of the unit in case of the failure of the main fixing point.

-The external surface of the unit, at various points, may exceed 70°C. Never handle the unit until at least 10 minutes have elapsed since the projector was turned off.

-Never install the fixture in an enclosed area lacking sufficient air flow. The ambient temperature should not exceed 40°C.

8- VOLTAGE AND FREQUENCY

The NICK NRG 501 can operate at 90-260 VOLT 50 or 60 Hz.

9- INSTALLATION

NICK NRG 501 may be either floor or ceiling mounted. For floor mounting installations, the NICK NRG 501 is supplied with four rubber mounting feet on the base. For ceiling mounted installations, we reccomend the use of appropriate clamps to fix the unit to the mounting surface. The supporting structure from which the unit is hung should be capable of bearing the weight of the unit, as should any clamps used to hung it. The structure should also be sufficiently rigid so as not to move or shake whilst the NICK NRG 501 is moving. Four 1/4 turn Fast Locks connections placed in the base of the unit allow to hang the NICK NRG 501 by using the Fast Lock “C” clamps provided in the box.

9.1- Safety cable

We recommend the use of a safety cable or chain connected to the NICK NRG 501 and to the suspension truss in order to avoid the fixture accidentally falling should the main fixing point fail. Make sure that the iron cable or chain can bear the weight of the entire unit. You may attach the safety chain/cord to the attachment point (A) located on the base of the fixture, as shown in the picture below.

9.2 Protection against liquids

The projector contains electric and electronic components which should under no circumstances come into contact with oil, water or any other liquid. The proper unit functioning would be compromised should this occur.

9.3- Movement

NICK NRG 501 FPR (Cod. 03.LDR009.FFP) Unlimited Pan rotation; Tilt 270° (1,2 sec.) NICK NRG 501 (Cod. 03.LDR009.F) Ultra-fast movement: Pan 540° (2,0 sec.); Tilt 270° (1,2 sec.) DO NOT place any obstructions in the path of the projector's movement.

WARNING Do not place any object in the

path of the projector’s movement

Free Pan Rotation (‘FPR’) No ‘FPR’ (Cod. 03.LDR009.FFP) (Cod. 03.LDR009.F)

9.4- Risk of fire

Each fixture produces heat and must be installed in a well-ventilated place. The minimum recommended distance from flammable material is 1 MT.

Minimum distance from the object being illuminated is 0,5 MT.

9.5- Forced ventilation

You will note, on inspection, that the unit features various air inlets and cooling fans. These should, under no circumstances, be blocked or obstructed whilst the projector is in operation. Doing so could cause the fixture to seriously overheat thereby compromising its proper operation.

9.6- Ambient temperature

The projector should never be installed in places that lack a constant air flow. The ambient temperature should NOT exceed 40°C.

11- DMX SIGNAL CONNECTION

The unit operates using the digital DMX 512 (1990) signal. Connection between the mixer and the projector or between projectors must be carried out using a two pair screened ø 0.5 mm cable and a XLR 5 or 3 pins connector. Ensure that the conductors do not touch each other. Do not connect the cable ground to the XLR chassy. The plug housing must be isolated. Connect the mixer signal to the DMX IN projector plug and connect it to the next projector by connecting the DMX OUT plug on the first projector to the DMX IN plug of the second one. This way, all the projectors are cascade connected. NB. If the display showing the DMX address flashes, then one of the following errors has occurred:

- DMX signal not present

- DMX address not valid

- DMX reception problem

For Installations where long distance DMX cable connections are needed, we suggest to use a DMX terminator. The DMX terminator is a male XLR 3-5 pins connector with a 120 ohm resistor between pin 2 and 3. The DMX terminator must be plugged into the last unit (DMX out panel connector) of the DMX line.

PLACE A 120 OHM RESISTOR BETWEEN PIN 2

AND 3 OF A MALE XRL CONNECTOR AND PLUG IT

11.1-DMX Addresses

NICK NRG 501 can be controlled with 20 DMX channels. In order to use the unit in 20 channels, set the following addresses on the mixer:

Projector 1 A001 Projector 2 A021 If you want to select the next projector, just add “20” Projector 3 A041 ….. A…. projector 6 A101

11.2-Selecting the DMX address

1) Press the UP-DOWN key until you reach the required DMX channel. The numbers on the display will start to flash (but the new DMX address hasn't yet been set).

2) Press ENTER to confirm your selection. The numbers on the display will stop flashing and the projector is now setted to the new DMX address.

TRICKS: if you keep pushed the UP or DOWN keys, the channels are calculated more quickly and you get a faster selection.

14- PERIODIC CLEANING

Front lenses Glass

The dust can reduce the luminous output substantially. Regularly clean the front lenses glass using a soft cotton cloth, dampened with a specialist glasses cleaning solution.

Fans and air passages

The fans and air passages must be cleaned approximately every 6 weeks. This periodic cleaning will depend of course, on the conditions in which the projector is operating. Suitable instruments for performing this type of maintenance are a brush and a common vacuum cleaner or an air compressor. If necessary, clean the fans and air passages more frequently.

15- PERIODIC CONTROLS

Mechanical parts

Periodically check all mechanical parts and the gaskets, replacing them if necessary.

Electrical components

Check all electrical components for correct earthing and proper attachment of all connectors, refastening if necessary.

Attention: Disconnect mains power prior to removing the

projector housing.

Fuse replacement

Locate the fuse, which protect the electronics, in the base of the NICK NRG 501. Using a multimeter, test the condition of the fuse, replacing it with one of equivalent type if necessary.

Attention: Disconnect mains power prior to removing the

projector housing.
