7.1 Lamp specifications
Gobostorm Plus MK2 is designed to be used exclusively with Philips MSD 575 or MSR 575 lamp.
The lamps are part of the metal halide family of discharge lamps and must be handled with great care. The lamp
operates at high pressure, and the slight risk of explosion of the lamp exists if operated over its recommended life.
We recommend, therefore, that the lamp is replaced within the manufacturer’s specified lamp life.
Every time the lamp is replaced, please reset the lamplife counter, as described in paragraph 9.5, in order to determine when to perform the next replacement.
The specification of the lamp, available via the Griven network of dealers and distributors, are shown in the table
below.

10.3 DMX signal interruption
If the DMX signal is absent the shutter will close and the motors will stop in 5 minutes from the last signal reception.
10.4 Lamp management by DMX signal
In the presence of DMX, the lamp is controlled by the 1st channel dmx.
To turn off the lamp via DMX you need to stay at least 4 seconds in the 0-63 area of the DMX channel 1.
To turn on the lamp, allow at least 20 s after switching off.
Gobostorm Plus MK2 can operate without DMX signal (in AUTOMATIC mode) and can be set so that a single
MASTER unit will command a series of SLAVE units. This function is particularly useful when more units are desired
to execute the same programme in synchrony.
The following picture shows an example of a Master-Slave layout.
11.1 AUTOMATIC configuration
See paragraph 9.4 AUTOMATIC configuration.
11.2 MASTER configuration
To set up the unit as MASTER the same instructions for the set up as AUTOMATIC must be followed (see paragraph
9.4 AUTOMATIC configuration).
11.3 SLAVE configuration
To set up the unit as SLAVE set the DMX address 001. See paragraph 9.3 DMX setting

When operating in DMX mode, the projector can accept the following RDM commands:
• discovery
Upon request of the RDM controller, the projector adverts its own presence (the RDM controller will display the
projector between a list).
• DMX address reading and setting.
• Channels number reading
• On / Off identification
This command is used to identify the projector you want to get access to (the identification happens by switching on strobe effect).
• Manufacturer
The name of the manufacturer (Griven) is displayed.
• Model description
The projector model (Gobostorm Plus MK2) is displayed.
• Software version description
The version of the master firmware in use on the projector (Gobostorm Plus MK2 v.x.xx) is displayed.
• Display hours of lamp life
This displays the value of the hours of lamp life.
• Display projector working life hours
This displays the value of the hours of the life of the projector.
• Alarm display
Displayed alarm active on the projector.
To ensure maximum functionality and light output it is recommended to follow these instructions:
13.1 Cleaning the unit
The unit must be cleaned regularly. Cleaning regularity will depend especially on the environment where the unit
will operate: deposits of dust, smokes or other wastes will reduce the light output performances.
• Clean regularly the glass and the mirror of the unit.
• Be careful when cleaning the components. Operate in a clean, properly illuminated environment.
• Do not use solvents which could damage painted surfaces.
• Remove left particles by a cotton towel dampened with a glass-cleaning liquid or distilled water.
• Dry out by a clean, soft, non-scratching towel or by compressed air.
13.2 Regular checks
• Check electrical connections, especially the ground wiring and the power supply cable.
• Check that the unit is not damaged mechanically. Replace those components which have got deteriorated.
• Replace the lenses, the mirrors and the dichroic filters if they are visibly damaged.
• Replace any lamp that may present any damage or deformation.We recommend, therefore, that the lamp be
replaced within the manufacturer’s specified lamp life.
Replace any damaged shield.

13.3 Gears lubrication
If the rotation of the Gobos or prisms is not smooth and linear, the gears must be lubricated.
A. Untighten the screws “9” ed open the projector.
B. Slide the metal plate “24” as shown by the arrow.
C. Remove the Gobo holder slightly pulling it first outward
and then upward.
Warning!

B. Lubricate the fissure between the gobo holder and the
gear as shown in the picture.
C. Re-insert the gobo holder in the wheel
All components of the unit are available as spare parts at Griven dealers.
Exploded views, wiring diagrams, electronic layouts and advertising brochures are available on request.
To make the job of assistance centres easier, specify serial number and model of the unit which spare parts are
requested for.
The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old
lighting fixtures must not be disposed of the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be
collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce
the impact on human health and the environment.
The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you
dispose of the appliance it the must be separately collected.
Consumer should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct
disposal of their old appliance.
