Strobe safety

• Flashing light, particularly at 5 - 30 Hz, may cause seizures in persons with
photosensitive epilepsy. Do not use strobe effects for extended periods.

• Comply with local regulations on the use of strobe lighting and notify the public in
advance with highly visible warning signs when strobe effects are used.

• If a seizure occurs, stop using strobe effects. Seek professional medical help. Note the
time that the seizure starts and finishes. Call emergency medical help urgently if the
seizure lasts more than five minutes, if it is the person’s first seizure, or if the person is
injured. While waiting for help to arrive, consider the following general advice for
caring for a person who is having a seizure: protect the affected person from injuring
themselves on hard or sharp objects. If necessary, move the person to a safe place.
Lay them on their side with their head supported to prevent it from hitting the floor.
Loosen any tight clothing around their neck. Do not use force to hold the person or

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, as it is not designed to
support the weight of the fixture. The LCD display is also fragile. Picking up or
supporting the fixture in these places 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.

Protect the front lens from dirt, dust and other contaminants. Do not touch the front
lens. Airborne particles and grease from your fingers can become baked onto the lens
and difficult to remove.

Clean optical components only as directed in this manual (see ‘Caring for your
product’ on page 35). 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 fixture either in a flightcase or in its original packaging to protect it from
damage caused by shocks during transportation.

Store the fixture in a dry location where the temperature will remain above 0° C (32° F)
when not in use.

Important! Allow the fixture to cool completely and release the tilt lock before packing
or transporting the fixture in a flightcase or the original cardboard box.

4. Product features

The impression S350 Wash from GLP is a high-quality moving head lighting fixture with a
350 watt white light LED engine that provides outstanding color rendering and rich,
natural colors. 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, using GLP’s familiar ‘baseless’ format. Power input via a
Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 connector allows hot plugging.

The fixture 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 fixture 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 S350 Wash is equipped with a 350 W white light LED engine with a rated
lifetime of 20 000 hours to >70% LED output.

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 26 for
a table showing the control menu structure and options available.

Control options

The impression S350 Wash is compatible with DMX 512 and RDM control protocols.

You can control the fixture using DMX over a standard DMX cable link or via wireless
DMX using a LumenRadio CRMX plug-in (optional accessory). You can also control the
fixture using DMX over an Art-Net or sACN network.

See ‘Setting up fixture control’ on page 21 for more details.

Pan and tilt

The fixture pans through 565° and tilts through 256°, with coarse and fine control
channels and self-correcting position feedback available.

Pan and tilt position feedback can be disabled/enabled using the control panel or the
Special/Control DMX channel.

The direction of pan and/or tilt movement can be reversed by selecting an Invert
command using the fixture’s control panel or the Special/Control DMX channel.
Inverting movement is a fast way of obtaining symmetrical effects without
reprogramming at the console.

Color

The S350 Wash features 0-100% continuous CMY color mixing and a 10-slot color wheel
with ten dichroic color filters including CTC (see Figure 3).

A good method of controlling color is to set CMY levels to 0% when you begin to use
the color wheel. Then, after you have selected a color on the color wheel, you can
fine tune it using the CMY channels.

CTC

The CTC DMX channel lets you adjust color temperature from 8 000 K to 2500 K by
deploying the CMY flags. The channel sets the flags into the perfect positions for
matching color temperatures on the black body line.

A recommended approach is to set CMY levels to 0% when you begin to use the CTC
channel. After you have selected a color temperature on the CTC channel you can
fine tune it using the CMY channel.

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:

• PI (Position/Indexing) 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
all four blades 100% into the beam will result in dead blackout. The fixture is set to PI
mode by default.

• LR (Left/Right) mode gives you individual control of the left-hand and the right-hand
sides of each of the four blades. In this mode, for example, DMX channel 25 gives
control of the left-hand side of blade 1 and channel 26 gives control of the right-hand
side of blade 1.

GLP impression S350 Wash User Manual Rev. C 13

www.glp.de

To use framing, select either PI mode (this mode is selected by default) or LR mode
using either the fixture’s control panel or the Special/Control DMX channel. Then use
DMX channels 25 – 32 to control the four framing blades and use DMX channel 24 to
set the indexed angle of the entire framing module.

Iris

The iris gives you continuously variable control of the diameter of the beam.

Shutter effects

The fixture features an electronic dimmer / shutter system that provides pulse and
strobe effects as well as instant open and blackout.

Dimming

0 – 100% continuous dimming is available.
See Figure 4. You can select from two dimming curves using the control panel or the

Special/Control DMX channel: Linear and Extra soft:

• Light output using the Linear curve will appear to increase and decrease evenly
throughout the dimming range.

• The Extra soft curve gives 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.

Zoom

The impression S350 Wash has a 1:5 zoom range. You can narrow the beam angle from
45° to 6° half-peak / narrow the field angle from 60° to 12° one-tenth peak.

Control on the Zoom DMX channel can be inverted. Normal control as the DMX value
increases is flood

German Light Products®

Focus and focus tracking

You can adjust focus on DMX channel 13.

You can also use focus tracking, in which focus automatically adjusts to match
different zoom positions. Focus tracking is enabled by default, letting you change
zoom angles without any need to make adjustments on the focus channel.

It is possible to disable focus tracking completely or to optimize focus tracking for three
different projection distance ranges using the fixture’s control panel or the
Special/Control DMX channel. Four focus tracking settings are available:

• Focus tracking OFF sets the zoom and focus DMX channels to control zoom and focus
completely independently of each other.

• Focus tracking NEAR sets focus to automatically adjust for optimum sharpness at
projection distances of around 10 meters or less when the zoom angle is changed.

• Focus tracking MEDIUM sets focus to automatically adjust for optimum sharpness at
projection distances of around 11 - 20 meters when the zoom angle is changed.
Focus tracking is set to MEDIUM by default.

• Focus tracking FAR sets focus to automatically adjust for optimum sharpness at
projection distances of over 20 meters when the zoom angle is changed.

If you have enabled Focus tracking NEAR, MEDIUM or FAR you can still override the
automatic focus setting: any manual adjustment that you make on the Focus DMX
channel will take priority over the automatic setting. However, if you change the zoom
angle again, the fixture will forget any manual focus setting and return to
automatically adjusting focus to match the fixture’s zoom angle.

Fan modes

The four different cooling fan modes give you a range of options to choose from
depending on how you want to allocate priority between high-intensity light output or
low fan noise:

• Fan regulated gives priority to light output and only operates fans as necessary. If the
fixture is blacked out, fans run at minimum speed. When light output intensity is
increased, temperature regulation 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 limited 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. Light
output intensity is limited smoothly if it becomes necessary 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 sets fans to constant operation at medium speed. Light output
intensity is reduced to a level where it will normally remain constant at ambient

GLP impression S350 Wash User Manual Rev. C 15

www.glp.de

temperatures of up to 45° C (113° F). Intensity is smoothly limited further if it becomes
necessary in order to keep fixture temperature at optimum level.

• Fan constant low mode sets fans to constant operation at low speed and is optimized
for minimum noise. Light output intensity is reduced to a level where it will normally
remain constant at ambient temperatures of up to 30° C (86° F). Intensity is smoothly
limited further if it becomes necessary in order to keep fixture temperature at
optimum level.

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 Special/Control DMX
channel.

Performance settings

You can select between three different settings for the movement speed of all the
fixture’s mechanical effects (pan/tilt, color wheel, zoom, focus, etc.):

• In Normal mode, mechanical effects movement is set to give an optimum balance
between speed, quietness and smoothness. Normal is the default setting.

• In Fast mode, movement is set to maximum speed. This setting gives super-fast effects
but can result in higher noise levels.

• In Smooth mode, movement is set to optimize smoothness and give lowest-noise
performance. This setting gives extremely low noise and smooth performance but
effect movement will be slower than in Normal mode.

You can select Movement Performance using either the control panel or the
Special/Control DMX channel.

Effect wheel shortcuts

By default, the color wheel takes the shortest, fastest route from one slot to the next,
even if this means that it may pass through the open position. To avoid the wheel
passing through the open position when it changes from one slot to the next you can
set Effect shortcuts on the Special/Control DMX channel or in the control panel to OFF.

Behavior when the fixture is not receiving a DMX signal

You can set the fixture to react in four different ways if no DMX signal is present (if the
fixture is being controlled by DMX but the DMX signal stops, or if you apply power to
the fixture when no DMX signal is present):

• Hold sets the fixture to continue obeying the last DMX values it received. This is the
default setting.

• Blackout sets the fixture to black out whenever it is not receiving a DMX signal.

• Stand-Alone sets the fixture to play its stored stand-alone scene (see DMX Shot below)

when the fixture is not receiving a DMX signal. If no stand-alone scene is stored in
memory, the fixture will black out.

• DMX Shot takes a snapshot of the DMX values that are currently being received and
stores them in the fixture’s memory as its stand-alone scene. The fixture will display this

16 GLP impression S350 Wash User Manual Rev. C

German Light Products®

stand-alone scene if it is set to Stand-Alone (see above) and is not receiving a DMX
signal.

You can select one of these four settings using either the control panel or the
Special/Control DMX channel.

Stand-Alone operation

If the fixture is set to Stand-Alone and if a stand-alone scene has been stored in its
memory using the DMX Shot command, it will display its stand-alone scene at all times
when it is powered on but not receiving a DMX signal. You can therefore use this
setting if you want fixtures to automatically start stand-alone operation when you
apply power to them.

PWM frequency

You can change the LED dimming PWM frequency in order to avoid flicker and beat
frequencies in video images. To do this, select a new PWM frequency using either the
Settings DMX channel or the fixture’s control panel.

The default PWM setting is 3000 Hz. You can set the PWM frequency to 2200 Hz,
3000 Hz, 4800 Hz, 9600 Hz or 25 kHz. Note that a higher PWM frequency may affect
dimming performance.

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.

As a rule, you should set all the fixtures in an installation to the same PWM frequency in
order to ensure the same performance.

Installation options

The base has four Camlock fastener points and two M10 threaded holes for a
removable tripod (supplied), omega brackets or direct mounting of half-coupler
clamps, allowing various rigging options.

Two eyelets are provided for safety cable attachment.

See the next chapter for installation instructions.

Safety attachment

If there is a risk that the fixture will
cause injury or damage if it falls,
secure it with a secondary
attachment such as a safety
cable. To install a safety cable:

Obtain a safety cable that is

approved for the load it will
secure.

See Figure 7. Fasten the safety

cable to one of the safety
cable attachment points in
the base of the fixture and
loop it around a secure
anchoring point such as a
truss chord. Remove as much
slack as possible in the safety cable (by looping it more than once around the truss
chord, for example).

Secure the safety cable and check that it will hold the fixture if a primary

attachment fails.

Placing on a surface

If you install the supplied tripod on the base of the fixture, you can stand the fixture
upright on a flat, stable, horizontal surface in any location where the fixture is not
accessible to the public and will not present any safety risks.

If necessary to prevent the fixture from moving or
falling, pass a ratchet strap, webbing or other suitable
bracing strap through the safety cable attachment
points in the base (see Figure 7) or the strap
attachment points in the tripod stand (see Figure 8)
and fasten it to secure anchoring points. Make sure
that the strap is tight enough to hold the fixture, but do
not distort attachment points by overtightening the
strap.

If the fixture may cause injury or damage if it falls,
secure it with a safety cable as described in ‘Safety

Make sure that the head will not collide with anything
when it tilts and rotates.

Connecting to power

The AC mains power supply must include a connection to ground / protective earth. It
must be protected against ground / earth leakage and overload. The auto-sensing
power supply accepts AC power at 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz. Do not connect the fixture to
power at any other voltage or to an external dimmer.

The S350 Wash has a 3-conductor Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 socket that accepts AC
power from a Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 female cable connector.

Although powerCON TRUE1 connectors support hot-plugging, it is still good practice to
shut down power to power cables or move Power ON/OFF switches to OFF before
connecting power cables to fixtures.

To connect the fixture to power:

Check that power to the power input cable is shut down or that the fixture’s power

switch is set to OFF.

See Q in Figure 2 on page 11. Note the position of the keys and keyways on the

power cable connector and Mains In socket and align them with each other. Insert
the cable connector into the socket and twist clockwise to lock.

Before applying power by energizing the power cable and/or switching on the

power switch, check that the head is unlocked and can move freely and check
that nobody is looking directly into the front of the fixture.

Installing power connectors

It is possible to install a cord cap / mains power plug that is suitable for your local
convenience receptacles / power sockets on the supplied power input cable. If you
do this, check that the cord cap / plug is rated minimum 250 V, 16 A, that it has a
connection to ground / earth and that it has an integral cable grip. Follow the cord
cap / plug manufacturer’s assembly instructions.

If you need to install a Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 connector on a power cable, follow
the instructions given in the Support area of the Neutrik website at www.neutrik.com.

Respect the color coding used in the supplied power cable and in your local mains
power wiring system. US and EU systems use the color coding shown below:

US system Black White Green

Main fuse

See Figure 9. The main fuse sits in a holder in the
base.

If the fixture appears to be completely shut down
even though power is applied, the main fuse may
have blown. Disconnect the fixture from power
before replacing the fuse. You can open the
fuseholder with a flat-headed screwdriver. Replace
only with a fuse of the same type and rating.

If the fuse blows repeatedly, disconnect the fixture
from power and contact GLP for service and
repair.

Setting up fixture control

The impression S350 Wash can be controlled via USITT512 DMX over a standard DMX
cable link, Art-Net network or sACN network.

If you would like any advice with planning and installing a suitable control link, your
GLP supplier will be happy to provide assistance.

DMX

The fixture has 5-pin and 3-pin XLR IN and THRU sockets for connection to a DMX cable
link. Use certified DMX cable only for this link.

Connectors use standard DMX pinout:

• Pin 1 = Ground

• Pin 2 = Negative / data cold

• Pin 3 = Positive / data hot.

• Pins 4 and 5 are not used.

GLP impression S350 Wash User Manual Rev. C 21

www.glp.de

To configure the fixture for DMX control over a DMX cable link, open the menus in the
fixture’s control panel and make the following adjustments:

In the first menu (root menu), set the fixture’s DMX address to a suitable address.

In the ArtNet/sACN menu, set Capture Mode to DMX.

These settings will not be affected if you apply a Special  Default command in the
fixture’s control panel or a Load setting defaults command on the Control/Settings
DMX channel.

Art-Net

The fixture’s Ethernet port is suitable for connection to an Art-Net network. Use CAT 6 or
higher Ethernet cable only for this network.

To configure the fixture to receive control data via Art-Net, open the menus in the
fixture’s control panel and make the following adjustments:

In the first menu (root menu), set the fixture’s DMX address to a suitable address.

In the ArtNet/sACN menu, set Capture Mode to Art-Net.

Configure all fixtures with their own unique IP addresses. To do this, you can either:

• set fixtures to generate their own IP addresses by choosing the ranges 2.x.x.x or

10.x.x.x (Art-Net specification),

• set fixtures to acquire IP addresses automatically by DHCP, or

• assign IP addresses manually by entering individual IP addresses and Subnet mask.

Select an Art-Net port/universe from 00000 (Network 0 / Subnet 0 / Universe 0) to

32767 (Network 7 / Subnet 15 / Universe 255). Note that the first Art-Net universe is
considered to be universe number 00000, not 00001.

These settings will not be affected if you apply a Special  Default command in the
fixture’s control panel or a Load setting defaults command on the Control/Settings
DMX channel.

Note that it is possible to transmit DMX data as broadcast or unicast packages via Art­Net. If a large number of universes (more than 30) is broadcast, data loss can occur. If
you suspect that this is happening, configure your console to unicast Art-Net DMX
packages to fixtures, or switch to sACN.

sACN

The fixture’s Ethernet port is suitable for connection to an sACN network. Use CAT 6 or
higher Ethernet cable only for this network.

To configure the fixture to receive control data via sACN, open the menus in the
fixture’s control panel and make the following settings:

In the first menu (root menu), set the fixture’s DMX address to a suitable address.

In the ArtNet/sACN menu, set Capture Mode to sACN.

Configure all fixtures with their own unique IP addresses. To do this, you can either:

• set fixtures to generate their own IP addresses by choosing the ranges 2.x.x.x or

10.x.x.x (Art-Net specification),

• set fixtures to acquire IP addresses automatically by DHCP, or

• assign IP addresses manually by entering individual IP addresses and Subnet mask.

Select an sACN universe from 00001 to 63999.

These settings will not be affected if you apply a Special  Default command in the
fixture’s control panel or a Load setting defaults command on the Control/Settings

* Move from zero and hold value for 3 seconds to apply

** Move from zero and hold value for 5 seconds to apply

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 25 (Special/Control), start at a value of zero, then
move to the required value and hold it for the required time (e.g. 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 Special/Control channel, start at a value of
zero, move to the required value and hold it for at least 5 seconds.

Default settings are written in bold type.

9. Caring for your product

Cleaning

The buildup of dust, dirt and other airborne particles will reduce the fixture’s light
output. It will also prevent the fixture from cooling correctly, and this will reduce the
fixture’s lifetime. The rate of dirt buildup will vary depending on environmental factors
such as airborne dust, use of smoke machines, airflow from ventilation systems, etc. The
fixture’s cooling fans will accelerate buildup, and any smoke particles that are present
in the atmosphere will increase the tendency for dirt to clog.

To get the best performance and lifetime from the fixture, inspect it regularly and clean
it as soon as you see signs of dirt buildup. Assess the operating environment each time
you begin to use the fixture. In dusty or smoky conditions, inspect the fixture after a few
hours and check it frequently – the fixture may attract dirt faster than you expect.
Draw up a cleaning schedule that will make sure that dirt is removed before it can
build up.

Use the following guidelines:

• Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.

• Do not use solvents, abrasives or any other aggressive product to clean the fixture.

• Vacuum or use low-pressure compressed air to remove dust and loose particles from

surfaces and air vents. Prevent the blades of cooling fans from turning before you aim
a vacuum or air jet at the fan, or you may spin the fan too fast and damage it.

• Clean glass components by wiping gently with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth moistened
with a weak detergent solution. Put the solution on the cloth, not on the surface to be
cleaned. Avoid rubbing glass surfaces. If particles are stuck to the glass, try to lift them
off by dabbing them repeatedly with a cotton swab or moistened lint-free cloth.

• Dry the fixture with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth or low-pressure compressed air before
reapplying power.

Lubrication

The fixture does not normally need lubrication. If any moving parts show signs of rough
movement, consult a GLP service partner.
