INSTALLATION
Installing/Replacing the lamp
DANGER TO LIFE!
Only install the lamp with the device switched off!
Unplug from mains before!
For the installation, you need one MSD/HSD 200 GY-9.5, MSD/HSD 250 GY-9.5 or MSD 250/2 GY-9.5
lamp.
The lamp must only be changed when wearing appropriate protective clothing (protection glasses, protection
gloves, helmet with sight, leather apron).
The lamp has to be replaced when it is damaged
or deformed due to the heat!
CAUTION!
The lamp life given by the manufacturer must never be exceeded. This is why you need to take notes on the
operational time of the lamp and replace the lamp in time.
Keep exchanged lamp in a protective container and remove accordingly.
During the operation, the lamp reaches temperatures of up to 600° C.
Before replacing the lamp, unplug mains lead and let the lamp cool down (approx. 10 minutes).
During the installation do not touch the glass-bulbs bare-handed! Please follow the lamp manufacturer's
notes!
Do not install lamps with a higher wattage! Lamps with a higher wattage generate temperatures the device
was not designed for. Damages caused by non-observance are not subject to warranty.
Procedure:
Step 1: Unscrew the fixation screws X, Y of the lamp system and carefully remove it from the housing.
Step 2: If replacing the lamp, remove the old lamp from the lamp holder.
Step 3: Insert the lamp into the lamp holder.
Step 4: Replace the lamp system in the housing and tighten the fixation screws.
Step 5: Adjust the lamp as described under lamp adjustment.
Do not operate this device with opened cover!
51839360X18NXS_V_1_1.DOC
21/49
Lamp adjustment
The lampholder is aligned at the factory. Due to differences
between lamps, fine adjustment may improve light
performance.
Strike the lamp, open the shutter and the iris, set the dimmer
intensity onto 100 % and focus the light on a flat surface
(wall). Center the hot-spot (the brightest part of the beam)
using the 3 adjustment screws "A, B, C”. Turn one screw at
a time to drag the hot-spot diagonally across the projected
image. If you cannot detect a hot-spot, adjust the lamp until
the light is even.
To reduce a hot-spot, pull the lamp in by turning all three
screws "A, B, C” clockwise ¼-turn at a time until the light is
evenly distributed.
If the light is brighter around the edge than it is in the center,
or if light output is low, the lamp is too far back in the
reflector. "Push” the lamp out by turning the screws "A, B,
C” counterclockwise ¼-turn at a time the light is bright and
evenly distributed.
Overhead rigging
DANGER TO LIFE!
Please consider the DIN 15560 and the respective national norms during the
installation! The installation must only be carried out by an authorized dealer!
The installation of the device has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10 times the weight for
1 hour without any harming deformation.
The installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. an appropriate catch net.
This secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that no part of the installation can fall down
if the main attachment fails.
When rigging, derigging or servicing the device staying in the area below the installation place, on bridges,
under high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an
expert before taking into operation for the first time and after changes before taking into operation another
time.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an
expert after every four year in the course of an acceptance test.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by a
skilled person once a year.
Procedure:
The device should be installed outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated.
IMPORTANT! OVERHEAD RIGGING REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE, including (but not limited to)
calculating working load limits, installation material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all
installation material and the device. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself,
but instead use a professional structural rigger. Improper installation can result in bodily injury and or
damage to property.
The device has to be installed out of the reach of people.
If the device shall be lowered from the ceiling or high joists, professional trussing systems have to be used.
The device must never be fixed swinging freely in the room.
CAUTION, HOT LAMP!
Let the lamp cool down for
10 min. Change the lamp by
loosening screws X and Y.
Adjust the lamp position by
turning screws A, B and C.

Caution: Devices in hanging installations may cause severe injuries when crashing down! If you have
doubts concerning the safety of a possible installation, do NOT install the device!
Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10 times the device's
weight.
DANGER OF FIRE!
When installing the device, make sure there is no highly-inflammable
material (decoration articles, etc.) within a distance of min. 0.5 m.
Mount the device to your trussing system using an appropriate clamp.
For overhead use, always install a safety-rope that can hold at least 12 times the weight of the fixture. You
must only use safety-ropes with quick link with screw cap. Pull the safety-rope through the attachment eyelet
and over the trussing system or a safe fixation spot. Insert the end in the quick link and tighten the safety
screw.
The maximum drop distance must never exceed 20 cm.
A safety rope which already hold the strain of a crash or which is defective must not be used again.
Adjust the desired inclination-angle via the mounting-bracket and tighten the fixation screws.
DANGER TO LIFE!
Before taking into operation for the first time, the installation has to be approved by an expert!
DMX-512 connection / connection between fixtures
The wires must not come into contact with each other, otherwise
the fixtures will not work at all, or will not work properly.
Only use a stereo shielded cable and 3-pin XLR-plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller with
the fixture or one fixture with another.
51839360X18NXS_V_1_1.DOC
23/49
Occupation of the XLR-connection:
If you are using controllers with this occupation, you can connect the DMX-output of the controller directly
with the DMX-input of the first fixture in the DMX-chain. If you wish to connect DMX-controllers with other
XLR-outputs, you need to use adapter-cables.
Building a serial DMX-chain:
Connect the DMX-output of the first fixture in the DMX-chain with the DMX-input of the next fixture. Always
connect one output with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are connected.
Caution: At the last fixture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120
Ω
resistor
between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last fixture.
Connection with the mains
Connect the device to the mains with the enclosed power supply cable.
The occupation of the connection-cables is as follows:
Cable Pin International
Brown Live L
Blue Neutral N
Yellow/Green Earth
The earth has to be connected!
If the device will be directly connected with the local power supply network, a disconnection switch with a
minimum opening of 3 mm at every pole has to be included in the permanent electrical installation.
Lighting effects must not be connected to dimming-packs.
OPERATION
After you connected the effect to the mains, the DJ-COLOR 200 starts running. During the Reset, the motors
are trimmed and the device is ready for use afterwards.
Turn the focus-screw for adjusting the focus in order to obtain a sharp projection.
Turn the zoom-screw for adjusting the desired zoom.
DMX-controlled operation
You can control the projectors individually via your DMX-controller. Every DMX-channel has a different
occupation with different features. In order to call up the different features, you first have to open the light
output (control channel 3, DMX-value 240-255).
Addressing
The Control Board allows you to assign the DMX fixture address, which is defined as the first channel from
which the DJ-COLOR 200 will respond to the controller.
51839360X18NXS_V_1_1.DOC
24/49
If you set, for example, the address to channel 5, the DJ-COLOR 200 will use the channel 5 to 8 for control.
Please, be sure that you don’t have any overlapping channels in order to control each DJ-COLOR 200
correctly and independently from any other fixture on the DMX data link.
If two, three or more DJ-COLOR 200 are addressed similarly, they will work similarly.
For address setting, press the Mode-button until the display shows "d" and set the desired address via the
Up/Down-buttons.
Controlling:
After having addressed all DJ-COLOR 200, you may now start operating these via your lighting controller.
Note:
After switching on, the DJ-COLOR 200 will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or not. If
the data is received, the control LED flashes. If there is no data received at the DMX-input, the control LED
lights up permanently.
This situation can occur if:
- the 3 PIN XLR plug (cable with DMX signal from controller) is not connected with the input of the DJCOLOR 200.
- the controller is switched off or defective, if the cable or connector is defective or the signal wires are swap
in the input connector.
Note:
It’s necessary to insert the XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) in the last lighting in the link in order to
ensure proper transmission on the DMX data link.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are inspected by an
expert after every four years in the course of an acceptance test.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are inspected by a
skilled person once a year.
The following points have to be considered during the inspection:
1) All screws used for installing the devices or parts of the device have to be tighly connected and must not
be corroded.
2) There must not be any deformations on housings, fixations and installation spots (ceiling, suspension,
trussing).
3) Mechanically moved parts like axles, eyes and others must not show any traces of wearing (e.g. material
abrading or damages) and must not rotate with unbalances.
4) The electric power supply cables must not show any damages, material fatigue (e.g. porous cables) or
sediments. Further instructions depending on the installation spot and usage have to be adhered by a
skilled installer and any safety problems have to be removed.
Disconnect from mains before starting maintenance operation!
DANGER TO LIFE!
We recommend a frequent cleaning of the device. Please use a moist, lint-free cloth. Never use alcohol or
solvents!
The lens has to be replaced when it is obviously damaged,
so that its function is impaired, e. g. due to cracks or deep scratches!
CAUTION!
The objective lens will require weekly cleaning as smoke-fluid tends to building up residues, reducing the
light-output very quickly. The cooling-fans should be cleaned monthly.
The gobos may be cleaned with a soft brush. The interior of the fixture should be cleaned at least annually
51839360X18NXS_V_1_1.DOC
26/49
using a vacuum-cleaner or an air-jet.
The dichroic colour-filters, the gobo-wheel and the internal lenses should be cleaned monthly.
To ensure a proper function of the gobo-wheel, we recommend lubrication in six month intervals. The
quantity of oil must not be excessive in order to avoid that oil runs out when the gobo-wheel rotates.
There are no serviceable parts inside the device. Maintenance and service operations are only to be carried
out by authorized dealers.
Please refer to the instructions under "Installing/Replacing the lamp".
Replacing the fuse
If the fine-wire fuse of the device fuses, only replace the fuse by a fuse of same type and rating.
Before replacing the fuse, unplug mains lead.
Procedure:
Step 1: Open the fuseholder on the rearpanel with a fitting screwdriver.
Step 2: Remove the old fuse from the fuseholder.
Step 3: Install the new fuse in the fuseholder.
Step 4: Replace the fuseholder in the housing.
Should you need any spare parts, please use genuine parts.
If the power supply cable of this device becomes damaged, it has to be replaced by a special power supply
cable available at your dealer.
