versions of the product’s user documentation.
● Check the fixture software version indicated on page 2 of this User Manual and then
use the fixture’s control panel to check the version installed in the fixture. If the

Avoiding damage to the fixture
The Quick Start and Safety Manual contains important information that is intended to
help you avoid possible damage to the fixture from other light sources, during
transportation, etc. Read that information before storing, transporting or using the
fixture.
Powering the fixture off
When you power the fixture off, douse the lamp but leave power applied to the fixture
for 30 minutes before shutting down. This will allow cooling fans to cool down the fixture
evenly, avoiding hotspots that can weaken or damage the lamp.
If you douse the lamp, leave power applied and wait 5 minutes or until the HOT
message disappears from the display until you restrike it.

Features
Intended use
The Highlander Wash is for permanent or temporary indoor use in venues where the
distance to illuminated surfaces is at least 8 m / 26.3 ft.). It may be used outdoors if it is
protected from moisture and precautions are taken to prevent damage from direct
sunlight. It may be placed upright on a level surface or suspended from a suitable
structure as described in this manual.
The Highlander Wash is not suitable for household use, wherever unattended children
have access to it, for permanent outdoor installation, or in areas where the distance
from the fixture to illuminated surfaces is less than the minimum specified.
The Highlander Wash must be installed, operated, and maintained only by persons with
the training, knowledge and skills to do so safely.
Lamp
The Highlander Wash has an OSRAM Lok-It! 1400/PS Brilliant 1400 watt short-arc
discharge lamp with a CRI of 95. This lamp gives true-to-life color and very attractive skin
tones, making it ideal for theatre settings. The lamp’s average rated life is 750 hours. To
minimize the risk of lamp explosion and obtain the best light output, replace the lamp
before it reaches its rated lifetime following the directions in the fixture’s Quick Start and
Safety Manual supplied with the fixture and available for download from www.glp.de.
The fixture will not allow a lamp restrike if it senses that the lamp is too hot. If hot restrike
protection is active, the message HOT appears in the fixture display.
If you have had lamp power applied and then powered the lamp off, allow the lamp to
cool with the fixture powered on until the HOT message disappears from the display
before restriking it. Allow the fixture to cool with power applied for 30 minutes before
opening the lamp door or any other part of the housing.
Lamp power
The lamp can be operated at two power levels:
● At the NORMAL power setting, the lamp runs at 1400 W
● At the ECO power setting, the lamp runs at 1000 W.
You can toggle between these two settings under Lamp Power in the Fixture Settings
control menu.
See the Highlander Wash Quick Start and Safety Manual for details of the lamp power
available when the fixture is connected to AC mains power below 200 V.
Control options
The Highlander Wash is compatible with DMX 512, RDM, Art-Net and sACN control
protocols. See the Highlander Wash Quick Start and Safety Manual for more details.
You can also control the Highlander Wash via wireless DMX if you install an optional
CRMX module. Contact your GLP supplier for details.

Pan and tilt
The Highlander Wash pans through 640° and tilts through 262° with coarse and fine
control channels and self-correcting position feedback. Position feedback can be
disabled and control of pan and tilt can be reversed using the control panel or via DMX
on the Special/Control channel.
Pan and tilt are automatically disabled while you are using the fixture’s control panel.
Shutter
The Highlander Wash features a high-speed mechanical shutter with a choice of pulse
and strobe effects. It provides a full blackout with no visible light when intensity is set to
0%
Dimming
The mechanical dimming system provides
smooth full-range dimming.
Dimming curves
®
See Figure 1. Two dimming curve options
are available: Linear and Soft.
● The Linear setting gives a dimming
curve that the eye perceives as linear.
● The Soft setting gives finer control at
lower light levels, where the eye is most
sensitive to changes in light intensity,
and coarser control at higher light
levels.
You can select the dimming curve using
the control panel or via DMX on the
Special/Control channel.
CMY color mixing
The Highlander Wash features CMY color mixing with progressively saturated Cyan,
Magenta and Yellow for full-range color and efficient output.
Color temperature control
A separate progressive CTO filter lets you vary the color temperature from 6700 K at the
open position to 2700 K warm white when fully applied.
Figure 1. Dimming curves
You can use color mixing on its own to achieve a custom color, or you can select a
color on one of the fixture’s color wheels and then fine-tune it using CMY and CTO in
combination.

Color wheels
See Figure 2. The Highlander Wash features two separate color wheels with dichroic
color filters:
● Color wheel 1 offers seven saturated colors plus open.
● Color wheel 2 offers four pastel colors, half minus green and two color correction
filters plus open.

● Select full colors or the open position,
● Scroll the color wheels for split color effects, or
● Rotate the color wheels continuously with variable direction and speed.

Effect shortcuts
By default, the color wheels take the shortest, fastest route from one slot to the next,
even if this means that they may pass through the open position. To avoid the wheels
passing through the open position when they change from one slot to the next you can
set Effect shortcuts to OFF on the Special/Control DMX channel or in the control panel.
Framing
The four-blade framing module offers individual control of each blade, and the entire
module can be indexed continuously from -45° to +45°. Blades can be continuously
angled by +/- 30° and inserted by up to 100%, giving flexibility in choice of frame shape
and size right down to dead blackout.
Two framing control modes are available:
●Position/Indexing (PI) mode lets you insert each blade into the beam from 0% to 100%
on one channel and tilt each blade from -30° to + 30° on the next channel. Inserting
