Overview

Congratulations on your purchase of the Source Four® Revolution™ fixture. Source Four Revolution has been engineered for maximum performance with minimum cost. Your Source Four comes with WYBRON INSIDE. ETC engineers worked with Wybron engineers to bring ColoRam accuracy to Revolution's 24-frame color scroller. Every venue—from high school auditoriums to Broadway shows and national theatres—can have the power of automated lighting with Source Four and Wybron quality.
The Source Four Revolution fixture is a modular, automated ellipsoidal reflector spotlight. The base model includes zoom optics, a color scroller with a standard gel scroll, blank modules and the internal media frame for diffusion media or color correction. Optional modules include the iris module, the shutter module, the static wheel and rotating wheel modules which can be fitted with gobos or dichroic color filters.
If you have questions about your Source Four Revolution fixture that are not answered in this manual, please contact the supplier of your ETC equipment or ETC Technical Services.

Safety

The Source Four Revolution high performance automated ellipsoidal spotlight is intended for professional use only. Read entire User Manual before using equipment.
Please note the following safety notices before use:
WARNING:
0.7m
Note the following safety warnings before use:
Do not mount the Source Four Revolution fixture on or near a flammable surface.
Use the fixture in dry locations only, where humidity does not exceed 90 percent (non­condensing). Fixture is not intended for outdoor use.
Mount and support the fixture only by the primary suspension holes in the upper enclosure.
Suspend the fixture from a suitable structure using a minimum of two hook clamps secured with tightened steel bolts (12 mm (1/2") Ø), washers and locking nuts.
In addition to primary suspension, attach a safety cable (ETC Model 400SC or other approved safety cable or device) to the handles of the fixture’s upper enclosure.
Always replace the lamp if it becomes damaged or thermally deformed.
Keep the luminaire at least 0.7m (28") away from anything it is illuminating. Objects lit at this distance or greater will not exceed 90°C (194°F) temperature from projected light.
Disconnect the unit from power before all cleaning and maintenance.
Maximum ambient temperature: Ta=45°C (113°F)
Maximum exterior surface temperature: T
External Temperature after 5 minutes of operation: 35°C (95°F)

Power and Data cabling requirements

The Source Four Revolution fixture operates on AC power, 100-240VAC/50-60Hz, and consumes a maximum of 900 watts. You may use a circuit powered through an SCR dimmer, as long as the dimmer is set to unregulated non-dim (switched) operation.
The Source Four Revolution operates on DMX control signal. The unit is supplied with a 5-pin XLR DMX input connector and a 5-pin DMX Thru connector. DMX cables should be acceptable for DMX data transmission (not microphone cable) and should follow the standard pinout. The optional secondary data pair is not used by the Source Four Revolution fixture. On pre-2007 fixtures, termination is required after the last fixture on a DMX data line. Revolutions built in 2007 or later are equipped with self-terminating connectors.

Installing hanging hardware
The Source Four Revolution fixture’s upper enclosure provides six bolt holes for installation of hanging hardware. Suspend the fixture from a suitable structure using a minimum of two hook clamps secured with tightened steel bolts (12 mm (1/2”) Ø), washers and locking nuts.

Safety Cable
The safety cable (or other approved safety device) should be secured to one of the handles on the upper enclosure, wrapped around the hanging structure (pipe), then secured to the other handle on the upper enclosure. Take care to leave as little slack as possible in the safety cable to avoid the cable catching the yoke of the fixture.

Connect AC input power and DMX data cables to the appropriate ports as shown below. Connect the incoming DMX data cable to the DMX Input connector. If you are daisy­chaining the data to other fixtures or DMX-controlled devices, connect the next DMX cable to the DMX Thru connector. Revolutions built prior to 2007 (Part Number 7160A1002) require that the last fixture on a DMX line be terminated with a 100Ω resistor between pins 2 and 3. Revolutions built in 2007 or after are self-terminating and do not require termination. If both types are used on the same DMX line, it is recommended that the line be terminated.
Use the three thumbwheels on the upper enclosure to set the starting address for the fixture. Addresses must be set between 1-481. The fixture will report an error if the address is set to 482 or above. See Control, page 10, for channel mapping.
Note:
Revolution is a 31-channel fixture. A fixture with a starting address higher than 481 will not have control of all parameters.
Connect the AC Input cable:
Align and insert the power connector. Twist the connector clockwise until it locks into place.
Disconnect the AC Input cable:
Slide back the locking tab, twist the connector counterclockwise and pull to unlock and disconnect the power connector.

Power-up Procedure and Calibration

Move the power switch/breaker to the “on” position to apply power to the fixture.
CAUTION:
On power-up, the fixture will perform a series of movements to calibrate its motorized functions. Once the calibration process has completed, the fixture’s motors will end in the position determined by the incoming DMX signal. If no signal is present, the fixture’s functions will rest at the position of a DMX level of zero.
The Source Four Revolution fixture is provided with pan and tilt locks for your convenience when working on the fixture. The pan lock is located on the upper enclosure and the tilt lock is located on the tilt side yoke leg. Ensure that the pan and tilt locks are disengaged before applying power to your fixture.

Power-down Procedure

Move the power switch/breaker to the “off” position.
It is recommended that you allow the fixture to run for at least five minutes with the lamp off prior to removing power.
CAUTION:
If you are packing-up your fixture for travel, do not pack the fixture with the yoke against the pan stop, or with the pan and tilt lock engaged. Pan and tilt locks
are provided for fixture maintenance only and are not to be engaged during shipment. This will damage the end stop(s) and will prevent your fixture from calibrating correctly in the future.
Overview 9

Control

The Source Four Revolution fixture can take as few as 14 and up to 31 DMX channels to operate. The table below describes the order and function of each address, as well as which parameters are affected by the timing channels.
Timing channels give you the option to have the fixture calculate parameter movement over time, instead of using DMX fades and cue timing. Using timing channels may produce smoother movement of parameters (see Timing Channels, page 14).
