4- TECHNICAL FEATURES

The XR2000 SPOT CMY is one of the most powerful moving heads in the 700W range.
The XR2000 SPOT CMY in fact delivers a massive 64.300 Lux at 5 m (8° beam angle), thanks to its
improved optical group and dichroic glass reflector, combined with a Philips MSR Gold 700/2 Fastfit lamp
(50.000 Lumens).
The XR2000 SPOT CMY is particularly suitable for all professional applications, both mobile (concerts,
shows, tours, special events) and fixed (clubs and other venues), requiring a light with extremely high
luminous output and versatility of functions.
The XR2000 SPOT CMY is also the ideal light for a vast range of applications in which quiet operation is
a priority, thanks to its silent ventilation system and silent pan/tilt operation.
The XR2000 SPOT CMY incorporates motorized focus; motorized iris; linear zoom (8°- 30°); a
sophisticated CMY colour synthesis system with 3 palettes for linear insertion, plus a colour wheel (7
colours + open); 2 gobo wheels: one customizable rotating gobo wheel (7 gobos) and one customizable
fixed gobo wheel (8 gobos); frost filter (soft edge); 3-facet rotating prism; animation wheel rotating in
both directions.
The 16 bit Pan/Tilt mechanism features an exclusive Super Speed function, and a locking system with
recessed buttons. Access to every feature of the internal menu is simple and direct, thanks to the new
user interface featuring a LCD backlit graphic display (128 x 64).

8- VOLTAGE AND FREQUENCY

The XR2000 SPOT CMY with electronic ballast can operate at 90-260 VOLT 50 or 60 Hz.

9- INSTALLATION

XR2000 SPOT CMY may be either floor or ceiling mounted.
For floor mounting installations, the XR2000 SPOT CMY 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 hang it. The structure should also be sufficiently rigid so as not to
move or shake whilst the XR2000 SPOT CMY is moving.
Eight 1/4 turn Fast Locks connections placed in the base of the unit allow to fix the XR2000 SPOT CMY in
any position, by using the two Fast Lock “C” clamps provided in the box.

XR2000 SPOT CMY

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
