SAFETY GUIDELINES

DO NOT TOUCH the fixture housing during operation. Turn OFF the power and allow

approximately 15 minutes for the fixture to cool down before serving.

DO NOT shake fixture, avoid brute force when installing and/or operating fixture.

DO NOT operate fixture if the power cord is frayed, crimped, damaged and/or if any of the

power cord connectors are damaged and do not insert into the fixture securely with ease.
NEVER force a power cord connector into the fixture. If the power cord or any of its
connectors are damaged, replace it immediately with a new one of similar power rating.

DO NOT block any air ventilation slots.

All fan and air inlets must remain clean and never blocked.

Allow approx. 6” (15cm) between fixture and other devices or a wall for proper cooling.

When installing fixture in a suspended environment, always use mounting hardware that is no less
than M10 x 25 mm, and always install fixture with an appropriately rated safety cable.

Always disconnect fixture from main power source before performing any type of service
and/or cleaning procedure. Only handle the power cord by the plug end, never pull out the
plug by tugging the wire portion of the cord.

During the initial operation of this fixture, a light smoke or smell may emit from the interior of
the fixture. This is a normal process and is caused by excess paint in the interior of the casing
burning off from the heat associated with the lamp and will decrease gradually over time.

Consistent operational breaks will ensure fixture will function properly for many years.

7

MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES

DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE!

CLEANING

Frequent cleaning is recommended to insure proper function, optimized light output, and

an extended life. The frequency of cleaning depends on the environment in which the

fixture operates: damp, smoky or particularly dirty environments can cause greater

accumulation of dirt on the fixture’s optics. Clean the external lens surface at least every

20 days with a soft cloth to avoid dirt/debris accumulation.

NEVER use alcohol, solvents, or ammonia-based cleaners.

MAINTENANCE

Regular inspections are recommended to insure proper function and extended life.

There are no user serviceable parts inside this fixture, please refer all other service issues

to an authorized Elation service technician. Should you need any spare parts, please order

genuine parts from your local Elation dealer.

Please refer to the following points during routine inspections:

A detailed electric check by an approved electrical engineer every three months, to make

sure the circuit contacts are in good condition and prevent overheating.

Be sure all screws and fasteners are securely tightened at all times. Lose screws may fall out

during normal operation resulting in damage or injury as larger parts could fall.

Check for any deformations on the housing, color lenses, rigging hardware and rigging

points (ceiling, suspension, trussing). Deformations in the housing could allow for dust to

enter into the fixture. Damaged rigging points or unsecured rigging could cause the fixture

to fall and seriously injure a person(s).

Electric power supply cables must not show any damage, material fatigue or sediments.

NEVER remove the ground prong from the power cable.

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

FLAMMABLE MATERIAL WARNING

Keep fixture minimum 5.0 feet (1.5m) away from flammable materials and/or pyrotechnics.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

A qualified electrician should be used for all electrical connections and/or installations.

USE CAUTION WHEN POWER LINKING OTHER MODEL FIXTURES AS THE
POWER CONSUMPTION OF OTHER MODEL FIXTURES MAY EXCEED THE MAX
POWER OUTPUT ON THIS FIXTURE. CHECK SILK SCREEN FOR AMX AMPS.

MINIMUM DISTANCE TO OBJECTS/SURFACES
MUST BE 3.3 FEET (1.0 METER)

MINIMUM DISTANCE OF INFLAMMABLE MATERIALS
FROM THE SURFACE 1.6 FEET (0.5 METER)

MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE OF EXTERNAL SURFACE
185° F (85°C)

DO NOT INSTALL THE FIXTURE IF YOU ARE NOT QUALIFIED TO DO SO!

Fixture MUST be installed following all local, national, and country commercial electrical and
construction codes and regulations.

Before rigging/mounting a single fixture or multiple fixtures to any metal truss/structure or
placing the fixture(s) on any surface, a professional equipment installer MUST be consulted
to determine if the metal truss/structure or surface is properly certified to safely hold the
combined weight of the fixture(s), clamps, cables, and accessories.

Overhead rigging requires extensive experience, including amongst others calculating
working load limits, installation material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all
installation material and the fixture. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the
installation yourself. Improper installation can result in bodily injury.

Fixture ambient operating temperature range is 14° to 113°F. (-10° to 45°C)
Do not use the fixture under or above this temperature.

Fixture(s) should be installed in areas outside walking paths, seating areas, or away from
areas were unauthorized personnel might reach the fixture by hand.

NEVER stand directly below the fixture(s) when rigging, removing or servicing.
Overhead fixture installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment,
such as an appropriately rated safety cable.

Allow approximately 15 minutes for the fixture to cool down before serving.

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

SAFETY CABLE
ATTAC HME NT

CLAMP INSTALLATION

When mounting fixture to truss, be sure to secure an appropriately rated professional grade
rigging clamp to the included Omega Brackets or Single Clamp Bracket Kit using an M10
screw fitted through the center hole of the Omega Brackets or through the center hole of
the Single Clamp Bracket Kit. The fixture provides a built-in rigging point for a SAFETY
CABLE. Be sure to only use the designated rigging point for the safety cable and never
secure a safety cable to a carrying handle.

ALWAYS ATTACH AN APPROPRIATELY RATED SAFETY CABLE (NOT
INCLUDED) THAT MEETS ALL LOCAL, NATIONAL, AND COUNTRY CODES
AND REGULATIONS WHENEVER INSTALLING FIXTURE IN A SUSPENDED
ENVIRONMENT!

POWER LINKING

USE CAUTION WHEN POWER LINKING OTHER MODEL FIXTURES AS THE
POWER CONSUMPTION OF OTHER MODEL FIXTURES MAY EXCEED THE MAX
POWER OUTPUT ON THIS FIXTURE. CHECK SILK SCREEN FOR MAX AMPS.

ART-NET / sACN CONNECTION

When connecting fixture to a network switch to control multiple devices, a Gigabit
Ethernet Switch that supports IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) is

required. Using a Gigabit Ethernet Switch that does not support IGMP can cause erratic
behavior of all connected devices to the switch. Click link below for more information
about IGMP. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Group_Management_Protocol

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

POTENTIAL INTERNAL FIXTURE DAMAGE FROM EXTERNAL SOURCES OF LIGHT BEAMS

External sources of light beams from direct sunlight, lighting moving head fixtures, and
lasers, which are focused directly towards the exterior housing and/or penetrate the front
lens opening of ELATION lighting fixtures, can cause severe internal damage including
burning to optics, dichroic color filters, glass and metal gobos, prisms, animation wheels,
frost filters, iris, shutters, motors, belts, wiring, discharge lamps, and LEDs.

This issue is not specific only to ELATION lighting fixtures, it is a common issue with lighting
fixtures from all manufacturers. Although there is no true way to fully prevent this issue from
happening, the guidelines below can prevent any potential damage from occurring if
followed. Contact ELATION Service for more details.

DO NOT EXPOSE THE FIXTURE AND/OR FRONT LENS OPENING TO
LIGHT BEAMS FROM DIRECT SUNLIGHT, OTHER LIGHTING MOVING
HEAD FIXTURES, AND LASERS WHILE UNPACKING, INSTALLATION, USE,
AND EXTENDED IDLE TIMES OUTDOORS. DO NOT FOCUS A LIGHT
BEAM FROM ONE LIGHTING FIXTURE DIRECTLY TOWARDS ANOTHER.

SYSTEM MENU

The fixture includes an easy to navigate system menu. The control panel (see image below)

located on the front of the fixture, provides access to the main system menu and is where

all necessary system adjustments are made to the fixture. During normal operation, pressing

MODE/ESC button once will access the fixture’s main menu. Once in the main menu you

can navigate through the different functions and access the sub-menus with the UP, DOWN,

RIGHT, and LEFT buttons. Once you reach a field that requires adjusting, press the ENTER
