Introduction
The GLOW® Professional Bumble Beam™ is a high-performance moving-head
lighting xture equipped with an HRI 2R 132W lamp. It’s compact design makes it
ideal for venue installations, and small to mid sized stage and concerts.
The xture features a rotating and indexing gobo wheel with 14 gobos, a color wheel
with 14 color lters. High grade,smooth mechanical step motors are tted for seam-
less movement of all mechanical parts. The GLOW® Professional Bumble Beam™
also features pan/tilt feedback, coarse and ne control of movement and effects, a
range of built-in movement and effect macros, prism effects, motorized focus, as
well as frost lter and strobe effects.
The xture can be controlled using any DMX-compliant controller as well as auto-
matic mode and sound to light mode.
Before using the product
for the rst time
1. Read ’Safety information’ on page 4 before installing, operating or servicing the
xture.
2. Unpack and ensure that there is no transportation damage before using the
xture. Never attempt to operate a damaged xture.
3. If the xture is not going to be hard-wired to a mains supply, attach a local power
plug to the end of the supplied power cable.
4. Before operating, ensure that the voltage and frequency of the power supply
match the power requirements of the xture.
5. Check the GLOW® Professional Bumble Beam™ website for the most recent
user documentation and technical information about the xture.
Note that whenever AC power is applied to the xture, it will reset all effects and
functions to their home positions. The xture head will move. This process usually
takes around 15 seconds. On hot strike the xture will wait for lamp for a Maximum
of 70 seconds.
Page 7
GLOW® Bumble Beam™ 7
Maximizing lamp life
To obtain maximum operating life from the xture’s discharge lamp:
• Each time you power the lamp on, allow it to warm up for at least 5 minutes
before you power it off.
• Before shutting down power completely, power the lamp off but leave power
applied to the xture for a few minutes so that cooling fans can prevent any
momentary lamp temperature increase caused by heat from surrounding
components.
Page 8
GLOW® Bumble Beam™ 8
Installation
Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ on page 4 before installing
the xture.
The xture is designed for indoor use only and must be used in
a dry location with adequate ventilation. Ensure that none of the
xture’s ventilation slots are blocked and ensure that the xture
is fastened to a secure structure or surface. Do not use the xture
to illuminate surfaces less than 8 m (appx 26ft.) from the xture.
Fastening the xture to a at surface
The xture can be fastened to a hard, xed, at surface that is oriented at any
angle. Ensure that the surface and all fasteners used can support at least 10
times the weight of all xtures and equipment they will support. Fasten the xture
securely. Do not stand it on a surface or leave it where it can be moved or fall over.
If you install the xture in a location where it may cause injury or damage if it falls,
secure it as directed below with a securely anchored safety cable that will hold the
xture if the primary fastening method fails.
Mounting the xture on a truss
The xture can be clamped to a truss or similar rigging
structure in any orientation. When installing the xture
hanging vertically down, you can use an open-type
clamp such as a G-clamp. When installing in any
other orientation, you must use a half-coupler clamp
that completely encircles the truss or pipe circumfrance.
To clamp the xture to a truss:
1. Check that the rigging structure can support at least 10 times the weight
of all xtures and equipment to be installed on it.
2. Block access under the work area.
Page 9
GLOW® Bumble Beam™ 9
3. Working from a stable platform, hang the xture on the truss and fasten the
rigging clamps onto the truss.
4. Secure the xture with a safety cable as directed below.
5. Check that the head will not collide with other xtures or objects.
Securing with a safety cable
Secure the xture with a safety cable (or other secondary attachment) that is
approved for the weight of the xture so that the safety cable will hold the xture if
a primary attachment fails. Loop the safety cable through and around a secure metal
anchoring point.
Page 10
GLOW® Bumble Beam™ 10
AC Power
Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ on page 4 before
connecting the xture to AC mains power.
For protection from electric shock, the xture must be
grounded (earthed). The power distribution circuit must be
equipped with a fuse or circuit breaker and ground-fault
(earth-fault) protection.
Socket outlets or external power switches used to supply the xture with power must
be located near the xture and easily accessible so that the xtures can easily be
disconnected from power.
Do not insert or remove power cable to apply or cut power, as this may cause arcing
at the terminals that will damage the connectors.
Do not use an external dimming system to supply power to the xture, as this may
cause damage to the xture that is not covered by the product warranty.
The xture can be hard-wired to a building electrical installation if you want to install
it permanently, or a power plug (not supplied) that is suitable for the local power outlets can be installed on the power cable.
If you replace power plug on the power cable, install a grounding type (earthed) plug
with integral cable grip that is rated minimum 250 V, 5 A.
The xture has an auto-ranging power supply that accepts AC mains power at
100-240 V at 50/60 Hz. Do not apply AC mains power at any other voltage or frequency to the xture.

The T5A xture fuse is located in a fuseholder below the power switch. An extra fuse
is attached to the fuse holder for quick replacement.
Control data link
A DMX 512 data link is required in order to control the xture via DMX. The xture
has 3-pin and 5-pin XLR connectors for DMX data input and output. The number
of daisy-chained xtures is limited by the number of DMX channels required by the
xtures in relation to the maximum 512 channels available in one DMX universe.
Note that if independent control of a xture is required, it must have its own DMX
channels. Fixtures that are required to behave identically can share the same DMX
address and channels. To add more xtures or groups of xtures when the above
limit is reached, add a DMX universe and another daisy-chained link.
Connecting the DMX data link
To connect the xture to data:
1. Connect the DMX data output from the controller to the rst xture’s male XLR
DMX input connector.
2. Connect the rst xture’s DMX output to the DMX input of the next xture
and continue connecting xtures output to input.

Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ on page 4 before
servicing the xture.
Refer any service operation not described in this user manual to a
qualied service technician.
Disconnect the xture from mains power and allow to cool completely before
cleaning or servicing.
Service xtures in an area where there is no risk of injury from failing parts,
tools or other materials.
Excessive dust, smoke uid, and particle buildup degrades performance,
causes overheating and will damage the xture. Damage caused by inadequate
cleaning or maintenance is not covered by the product warranty.
Cleaning
The cleaning of external optical lenses must be carried out periodically to
optimize light output. Cleaning schedules for lighting xtures vary greatly
depending on the operating environment. It is therefore impossible to specify
precise cleaning intervals for the xture. Environmental factors that may result
in a need for frequent cleaning include:
• Use of smoke or fog machines.
• High airow rates (near air conditioning vents, for example).
• Presence of cigarette smoke.
• Airborne dust (from stage effects, building structures and ttings or the natural
environment at outdoor events, for example).
If one or more of these factors is present, inspect xtures within their rst 100 hours
of operation to see whether cleaning is necessary. Check again at frequent intervals.
This procedure will allow you to assess cleaning requirements in your particular
situation.
Use gentle pressure only when cleaning, and work in a clean, well-lit area. Do
not
use any product that contains solvents or abrasives, as these can cause surface
damage.
Maintenance
Page 23
GLOW® Bumble Beam™ 23
To clean the xture:
1. Disconnect the xture from power and allow it to cool for at least 10 minutes.
2. Vacuum or gently blow away dust and loose particles from the outside of
the xture and the air vents at the back and sides of the head and in the base
with low-pressure compressed air
3. Clean lenses by wiping gently with a soft, clean lint-free cloth moistened with a
weak detergent solution. Do not rub the surface hard: lift particles off with a soft
repeated press. Dry with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth or low pressure compressed
air. Remove stuck particles with an unscented tissue or cotton swab moistened with
glass cleaner or distilled water.
4. Check that the xture is dry before reapplying power.
