2. Avoiding damage
Do not point the front of the fixture towards the sun or other strong light sources. The front lens focuses and concentrates light just like a magnifying glass. Strong light can cause internal damage to the fixture, melting components or starting an internal fire within seconds.
Figure 1. Avoiding damage from light sources
Damage can occur whether the fixture is powered on or off. See Figure 1.Damage can also occur if the light hits the front of the fixture at an angle: the fixture does not need to be pointing directly at the sun or other light source.
To avoid problems from strong light sources:
• Do not expose the front of a fixture to sunlight or any other strong light source.
• For outdoor applications during daylight, make sure that the front face of any fixture is
shielded or points away from the sun, even when not in use.
• Avoid pointing other high-powered beam lights directly at the fixture.
Do not pick up or carry the fixture by the front lens bezel. The LCD display is also fragile. Picking up or supporting the fixture in these spots could result in damage that is not covered by the warranty.
Use only original spare parts. Any structural modification of the system will void the product warranty.
Clean optical components only as directed. Oils, solvents, and other chemicals commonly used for cleaning can damage the lens coatings and surfaces.
Do not drop the product or expose it to mechanical stress.
Do not expose the product to heat (from other lighting fixtures for example).
Transportation and storage
Transport the impression FR1 either in a flightcase or in its original packaging to protect the fixture from damage caused by shocks during transportation.
Store the fixture in a dry location when not in use.

4. Product features
The impression FR1 from GLP is a high-quality moving head lighting fixture with a 60 watt RGBW LED and advanced optics that give a powerful, homogenous and sharply defined beam throughout the fixture’s 10:1 zoom range. Advanced German design allows exceptional performance and a versatile feature set to be packed into one of the most compact moving head lighting fixtures currently available, with GLP’s familiar baseless format. The fixture is designed for ease of installation, with Neutrik PowerCON IN and THRU connections allowing daisy-chained power lines.
The impression FR1 is designed for permanent or temporary indoor use. It can 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 this manual.
The impression FR1 is not suitable for household use, for use in any location where unattended children have access to it, or for use in permanent outdoor installations.
Light source
The impression FR1 is equipped with an OSRAM Ostar RGBW LED with a rated lifetime of 50 000 hours.
Removable micro-Fresnel lens
A detachable micro-Fresnel lens is fitted to the front of the fixture to give a smoother beam. It is possible to remove this lens to obtain a harder-edged beam (see page 27).
Pan and tilt
The impression FR1 pans through 540° and tilts through 220° with coarse and fine control channels and self-correcting position feedback.
Pan and tilt position feedback can be disabled using the control panel or the Settings DMX channel.
The direction of pan and tilt movement can be reversed by selecting Invert command using the control panel or the Settings DMX channel, and you can also swap pan and tilt via the control panel. Inverting and swapping movement is a fast way of obtaining symmetrical effects without reprogramming at the console.
The default settings for position feedback, inversion and swapping are OFF. Continuous (endless) pan rotation is also available on a separate DMX channel.
Color
The impression FR1 provides both color presets and 0-100% continuous RGBW color mixing.
You should normally set RGBW levels to 100% when you begin to use the color presets channel, but after you have selected a color on the color preset channel you can fine-tune it using the RGBW channels.
10 impression FR1 User Manual
German Light Products
CTC
The CTC DMX channel lets you adjust color temperature from 2500 to 10 000 K.
You should normally set RGBW levels to 100% when you begin to use the CTC channel, but after you have selected a color temperature on the CTC channel you can fine­tune it using the RGBW channels.
Shutter effects
The impression FR1 features an electronic dimmer / shutter system that provides pulse and strobe effects.
Dimming
0 – 100% continuous dimming is available.
Light output
DMX control value
Figure 3. Dimming curves
See Figure 3. You can select from three different dimming curves using the control panel or the Settings DMX channel: Linear, Soft and Extra soft:
• Light output using the Linear curve will appear to increase and decrease evenly throughout the dimming range.
• The Soft and Extra soft curves give finer control at low light levels (where the eye is more sensitive to changes in light level) and coarser control at high levels.
The default setting is Extra soft.
Fan modes
The four different cooling fan modes give you a range of options to choose from depending on how much you want to give priority to high-intensity light output or to low fan noise:
• Fan regulated gives priority to light output. If the fixture is blacked out, fans run at minimum speed. When light output intensity is increased, temperature regulation
impression FR1 User Manual 11
www.glp.de
increases fan speed to the level necessary to keep the fixture at optimum temperature.
If light output is set to maximum intensity but the fans can keep the fixture at optimum temperature, there will be no regulation of light intensity. If the fixture begins to exceed optimum temperature, light intensity will be reduced until optimum temperature can be maintained.
• Fan constant high mode is optimized for maximum light output and suits operation in high ambient temperatures. Fans are set to constant operation at high speed and light output intensity is regulated in order to keep fixture temperature at optimum level.
Besides maximizing light output in high ambient temperatures, you can use this mode to cool down a fixture quickly or to remove dust from cooling fans.
• Fan constant medium mode is suitable for low-noise operation in normal ambient temperatures. Fans are set to constant operation at medium speed and light output intensity is regulated in order to keep fixture temperature at optimum level.
• Fan constant low mode is optimized for minimum noise. Fans are set to constant operation at low speed and light output intensity is regulated in order to keep fixture temperature at optimum level.
This mode gives an extremely low fan noise level, but if you use it in high ambient temperatures there may be a noticeable reduction in light output intensity.
In all fan modes, if fixture temperature reaches a dangerous level, LEDs will be shut down for a period until the fans have brought the temperature down to a safe level.
You can set the cooling fan mode using the control panel or the Settings DMX channel.
Zoom
The impression FR1 has a 10:1 zoom range. You can narrow the beam angle from 35° in flood mode to 3.7° in spot mode.
Zoom can be inverted from flood spot to spot flood using the control panel and the Settings DMX channel. The default setting for zoom inversion is OFF.
Control panel
The control panel on the side of the yoke has a backlit graphic LCD display for setting up the fixture and changing fixture settings. See ‘Control menu layout’ on page 19 for a table showing the control menu structure and options available.
PWM frequency
You can change the LED dimming PWM frequency using either a DMX command or a control panel setting in order to avoid flicker and beat frequencies in video images.
The default PWM setting is 582 Hz. You can adjust the PWM frequency continuously from 582 to 618 Hz, or you can set it to either 1200, 2400, 4800 or 9600 Hz. Note that a higher PWM frequency may affect dimming performance.
12 impression FR1 User Manual
German Light Products
The PWM frequency setting is stored in the fixture and is not affected by cycling power off and on. However, it will be affected if you use the Factory default command in the control menus.
You should set all the fixtures in an installation to the same PWM frequency in order to ensure the same performance. As described above, you can do this using the PWM frequency selection or Factory default commands in the control menus or using the PWM frequency DMX channel.
Installation options
The base provides M10 threaded holes for direct fastening of half-coupler clamps. A countersunk M10 bolt for clamp attachment is supplied with the fixture.
Two eyelets are provided for safety cable attachment.

See Figure 4. Fasten the bolt through the rigging
clamp into hole A in the center of the base of the fixture so that the rigging clamp is held securely. You can also install narrow half coupler clamps through holes B, but these extra clamps are not necessary.
Fasten the rigging clamp securely around a chord
on a rigging truss or similar bar.
See Figure 5. Attach a safety cable to one of the
safety cable attachment points in the fixture base and loop it around the truss chord or bar so that it will hold the fixture if the rigging clamp fails. Take up as much slack as possible in the safety cable (by looping it more than once around the truss, for example).
Make sure that the head will not collide with
another fixture or any other object when it tilts and rotates.

Notes:
Percentage values are calculated by dividing DMX values by 2.56 and rounding to the nearest 0.1%.
To apply a command on Channel 14 (Settings), start at a value of zero, then move to the required value and hold it for at least 3 seconds. If you move to the required value from any other value than zero, the command will not be applied.
To adjust the PWM frequency using the Settings channel, start at a value of zero, move to the required value and hold it for at least 5 seconds.

9. Service and maintenance
Warning! Read ‘Safety’ starting on page 3 for important safety information
that you must understand before you service the fixture. Work in well-lit conditions. Do not look directly into the light output.
Maintenance
Suggested maintenance intervals
The cleaning schedule depends on the operating environment. The intervals below are suggestions from our experience with typical installations. Adjust as necessary.
Maintenance Task Interval How
Clean front lens Weekly
Clean fans and air channel Monthly
Lubricate zoom rails Yearly
Wipe with soft cloth and glass cleaning fluid.
Use soft brush and vacuum cleaner, compressed air, etc. Hold fans still with pen or screwdriver to avoid spinning them with vacuum or air jet.
Apply very small quantity of Klüber Barrierta to rails.
Cleaning
impression FR1 components require occasional cleaning to prevent the buildup of dust, dirt, and smoke fluid residue. Pay special attention to the air vents and front lens. Failure to keep the fixture clean will significantly reduce light output and may cause damage. Do not let optical parts come into contact with oil or grease or touch with bare fingers.
Regular cleaning will ensure the maximum performance and reliable operation. The lenses and glass gobos may be cleaned with alcohol wipes or a soft cloth moistened with isopropyl alcohol.
Wait until all parts are dry before operating the fixture.
Lubrication
The only parts that may require occasional lubrication are the focus/zoom rails. Contact GLP Service and Support for advice.
Removing and reinstalling the micro-Fresnel lens
If you would like to obtain a sharper-edged beam, you can remove the micro-Fresnel lens that is installed in the front of the head (bear in mind that this will result in a slight loss of evenness in the beam projection). The lens is held by three screws. A frost filter is installed immediately under the lens.
impression FR1 User Manual 27
www.glp.de
To remove the micro-Fresnel lens:
Shut down power to the fixture and allow it to cool.
Figure 8. Removing a micro-Fresnel lens
See Figure 8. Remove the three Phillips #1 screws (arrowed) from the lens in the
front of the head.
Tilt the head downwards and allow the lens A and frost
filter B to slide out of the head. Store the lens for possible re-use.
Reinstall the frost filter in the head by passing the three
screws through the notches in the filter and tightening them into their holes in the head.
If you reinstall the micro-Fresnel lens later, use the three Phillips screws to fasten it into its original position over the frost filter. See Figure 9. The smooth side of the lens must face inwards and the ridges must face out of the head.
