Safety information 5
• Ensure that the AC power distribution system includes a means of isolating all installed
devices from power and locking out power during service.
• Ensure that all components in the AC po wer distr ibu tion cir cuits (cables, junction boxes,
etc.) are protected from water and airborne particles to IP67 or higher, are suitably
dimensioned for the current and power requirements of the devices insta lled, an d are of
suitable type for the location (including water, pollution, temperature and UV resistance).
• Do not expose any part of the luminaire to a high-pressure water jet.
• Do not expose the heat exchanger to water projections.
• Do not immerse the luminaire in water or any other fluid, or install it in a location where
flooding may occur.
• Refer all service not described in this manual to a Martin service technician.
Lamp safety
• Do not operate the luminaire with missing or damaged covers, shields, lenses or
ultraviolet screens: an unshielded discharge lamp emits UV radiation that can cause
burns and eye damage.
• Do not stare directly into the light output. Never look at an exposed lamp while it is lit.
• A hot discharge lamp is under pressure and can explode without warning. Allow the
luminaire to cool for at least 20 minutes and protect yourself with safety glasses and
safety gloves before replacing the lamp or servicing the luminaire internals.
• If the quartz envelope of a discharge lamp is broken, the lamp releases a small quantity
of mercury and other toxic gases. If a discharge lamp explodes in a confined area,
evacuate the area and ventilate it thoroughly. Wear non-porous safety gloves when
handling a broken discharge lamp. Treat broken or used discharge lamps and used
safety gloves as hazardous waste and send to a specialist for disposal.
• Replace the lamp if it becomes visually deformed, damaged or in any way defective
• Replace the lamp at the latest when it reaches the limit of its average life as specified in
this manual or by the lamp manufacturer.
• Install only an approved lamp.
Protection from burns and fire
• Do not operate the luminaire if the ambient temperature (Ta) exceeds 45° C (113° F).
• The exterior of the luminaire becomes hot, up to 90° C (194° F) during normal operation.
Ensure that accidental physical contact with an installed luminaire is impossible.
• Keep flammable materials well away from the luminaire.
• Keep all combustible materials (for example fabric, wood, paper) at least 1 m (40 in.)
away from the luminaire.
• Do not illuminate surfaces within 1 m (40 in.) of the luminaire.
• Allow the luminaire to cool for 20 minutes before servicing.
• Do not attempt to bypass thermostatic switches or fuses. Replace defective fuses with
ones of the specified type and rating only.
• Do not modify the luminaire in any way not described in this manual.
• Install only genuine Martin parts and approved lamps.
• Provide a minimum clearance of 135 mm (5.5 in.) and ensure unobstructed airflow
around the air vents in the heat exchanger cowling.
• Provide a minimum clearance of 150 mm (6 in.) between the top of the luminaire and
any part of a building above the luminaire.
• Provide a minimum clearance of 400 mm (16 in.) between the center of the luminaire
and any part of a building to the side of the luminaire.
6 Exterior 1200 Image Projector user manual
• Provide a minimum center-to-center distance of 800 mm (31.5 in.) between Exterior
1200 Image Projector luminaires.
• Install the luminaire outdoors or in a well ventilated area.
• Do not place filters or other materials over the lens. Use only Martin approved
accessories to mask or modify the light beam.
Preventing injury due to falls and while lifting
• Ensure that all external covers, components and installation fittings are securely
fastened.
• The luminaire weighs 90 kg (198.4 lbs.). At least two people are required to lift, move
and adjust it. Do not attempt to lift the luminaire or adjust the beam angle alone.
• Block access below the work area and work from a stable platform whenever installing,
servicing or moving the luminaire.
• Ensure that all supporting structures, surfaces, fasteners and lifting equipment can bear
the weight of all the devices they are intended to support plus an adequate safety
margin, and that they conform to local building and safety regulations.
• Use a sufficient number of fasteners with sufficient corrosion resistance, dimensions and
strength to mount the luminaire safely. Any nuts used must be self-locking. The washers
supplied with the luminaire must be installed directly under the fasteners’ heads when
anchoring the yoke base to the installation surface.
• The four eyebolts supplied are for lifting purposes during installation or service only. Do
not expose them to undue stress while lifting, b y allo win g the lum inair e to drop an d the n
catching it again, for example. Do not use the eyebolts for safety attachment.

2.2 Introduction to the Exterior 1200
Image Projector
Thank you for selecting the Exterior 1200 Image Projector from Martin Architectural. This
automated luminaire combines dynami c arc hit ectural lighting effects with extremely bright
output in an aluminum housing designed for permanent out door inst allation. The luminaire
uses a Philips MSD 1200 metal halide discharge lamp with an average lamp life of 3000
hours. An air/air heat exchanger system ensures effective cooling.
All models feature independently variable 0 - 100% cyan, magenta and yellow (CMY)
color mixing as well as a color wheel with four positions for filters. A gobo animation wheel
and a rotating gobo wheel with interchangeable gobos are also provided. These effects
allow a vast range of animated images and patterns to be projected.
All models feature full-range continuous mechanical dimming.
The size of the projected image on all models can be controlled remotely using a
motorized zoom feature. Focus can also be controlled remotely, allowing sharp image
projections or soft focus animation effects, for ex ample.
The Exterior 1200 Image Projector is available in the following optical configurations
(ranges indicate minimum and maximum zoom limits):
All dynamic effects can be controlled using industry-standard DMX intelligent lighting
control technology or run independent or synchronized st and-alone light sho ws that do not
require external control. Stand-alone light show start and stop times can either be
programmed using the luminaire’s onboard clock or triggered by ambient light level within
programmed times.
A permanent CTC filter is also available as an accessory. The permanent filter allows
precise color matching with other luminaires with different lamps.
This advanced product requires regular service and maintenance in order to ensure
optimum operation and protect the investment it represents. Installation, on-site service
and maintenance can be provided worldwide by the Martin Global Service organization
and its authorized agents. Choosing a Martin service contract gives owners access to
Martin’s expertise and product knowledge in a partnership that will ensure the highest
level of performance throughout the product’s lifetime.

3. Slide the yoke forwards until the edge of the yoke lines up with the mark (arrowed) on
the label on the side of the luminaire. In this position, the edge of the yoke is 400 mm
(15 ¾ in.) from the end of the luminaire and the luminaire’s weight is balanced in the
yoke.
4. Tighten the yoke clamp locking screws and tilt lock screws to 16 Nm (11.8 ft.-lbs.).
Installing the lamp and removing protective packaging
See Figure 2. Before the Exterior 1200 Image Projector can be used, you must open it,
remove the shipping bracket (A) from the lenses and protective foam insert (B) from
around the CMY flags, and then install the lamp supplied with the product. It will almost
certainly be easiest if you do this now, before the luminaire is installed in its final location.
Important! Keep the shipping bracket and foam inser t for future use and inst all them
if you ever need to transport the luminaire.
See "8.5.3: Installing the lamp" on page 64 for instructions on opening the luminair e and
installing the lamp.
3.1.2 Location and mounting
Lifting
DANGER! Use only the lifting eyebolts provided to lift the luminaire. Eyebolts must
be securely installed with washers at all four corners of the luminaire as illustrated
below.
See Figure 3. The Exterior 1200 Image Projector is supplied with four eyebolts for lifting
purposes during installation or service. Do not use any other method to lift the luminaire.
The eyebolts screw into blocks in the yoke slider channels on each side of the fixture. Use
the supplied washers to avoid damage to the luminaire housing. Make sure that eyebolts
Figure 2: Protective packaging – remove before use!
A
B
16 Exterior 1200 Image Projector user manual
are firmly screwed in and will not slide in the channels before attempting to lift the
luminaire.
Do not expose the eyebolts to undue stress while lifting, by allowing the luminaire to drop
and then catching it again, for example. Do not use the eyebolts for safety attachment.
Location and orientation
DANGER! The Exterior 1200 Image Projector mounting yoke base must be securely
anchored to a suitable flat surface. Ensure that the supporting structure can bear
the weight of all installed devices plus an adequate safety margin.
Consult a qualified engineer to determine a suitable anchoring method and to verify that
the structure can safely bear the luminaire’s weight.
The Exterior 1200 Image Projector is rated
UL Wet Location. When choosing a
location for installation, consider that the
main housing has an ingress protection
(IP) rating of 65, but that the heat
exchanger unit must be protected from
rain or direct water projections that might
fill the heat exchanger with water and
cause overheating. The luminaire may
therefore be installed in any orientation,
but it must be positioned so that the heat
exchanger is on the lower side of the
luminaire (see Figure 4). If necessary,
loosen the yoke tilt lock screws (B in
Figure 1) and reposition the yoke.
Allow for service access to the front and rear of the luminaire.
The Exterior 1200 Image Projector can be installed outdoors but:
• Do not expose it to high-pressure water jets from any direction
• Do not immerse it in water (or any other fluid)
• Do not install it in a location where flooding may occur.
Ensure sufficient drainage to cope with the heaviest rainfall. Make sure that water can
drain away from the installation area at least as fast as it can enter it.
Figure 3: Lifting eyebolts
Figure 4: Heat exchanger position
Physical installation 17
The Exterior 1200 Image Projector requires free an d unobstr ucted airflow aroun d the h eat
exchanger to ensure adequate cooling:
• Do not bury the luminaire or locate it in an unventilated space
• Allow 135 mm (5.5 in.) free space around the heat exchanger
• Make sure that leaves, litter or other debris cannot be sucked into the heat exchanger,
as blockages may cause overheating and result in damage that is not covered by the
product warranty.
Install the luminaire at least 1 m (40 in.) away from the surface to be illuminated and any
combustible materials (wood, paper, etc.) and well away from any flammable materials.
The aluminum housing reaches temperatures up to 90° C (194° F). Restrict public access
or locate the luminaire so that it cannot accidentally be touche d.
Mounting fasteners
DANGER! All fasteners used to mount the Exterior 1200 Image Projector must be
corrosion-resistant and strong enough to mount the luminaire safely. The washers
supplied with the luminaire must be installed directly under the fasteners’ heads
when anchoring the yoke base to the installation surface.
The mounting yoke allows the luminaire to be manually panned (i.e. rotated horizontally)
and tilted for beam aiming adjustment. The yoke base must be safely anchored to a
horizontal surface. The number and type of fasteners used will depend on the installation,
but use at least four high-strength corrosion-resistant fasteners (recommended min imum
properties: A4-70 grade according to ISO 3506 or grade 8.8 according to ISO 898-1)
evenly distributed around the yoke base. Any nuts used must be self-locking. The
washers supplied with the luminaire must be installed between the head of each fastener
and the yoke base.
To mount the luminaire, evenly space 12 mm (1/2 inch) thread diameter bolts at 90°
intervals on a 123.5 mm (4.86 inch) radius from the center of the mounting location, so
that one bolt passes through each curved slot in the yoke base (see Figu re 5). Install the
washers supplied with the luminaire under the heads of bolts. If additional bolts are
required to mount the luminaire safely, pa n adjustment range will be reduced.

3.1.4 Connections compartment access
DANGER! Fuseholders remain live even if the MAINS switch is set to off. Cut power
to the luminaire before changing a fuse.
To gain access to the connections compartment:
1. If the luminaire has been in use, allow it to
cool completely.
2. If you intend to open a main fuseholder, cut
AC power to the luminaire and ensure that
power cannot be reapplied accidentally by
locking it out.
3. See Figure 7. Loosen the screws in the rear
cover plate and carefully remove the plate
and seal.
4. If you intend to alter any connections, shut
down AC power by setting the MAINS switch
to 0 (off). Before you touch any connectors,
use a tester to check that they are not live.
After access to the connections compartment:
1. Check the condition of the rear cover seal. Replace with a new item if the seal is torn,
cracked or brittle.
2. Hold the rear cover plate and seal firmly against the luminaire housing. Adjust the
sides of the seal so that the seal sticks out a little, just enough so that you can feel the
seal when you run a finger across the joint.
3. Cross-tighten the cover plate screws gradually and evenly to 2 Nm (1.5 f t.-lbs.). At this
torque, the seal will be compressed by about one-third and will offer protection to IP65.

3.2 Installing AC power
DANGER! Read "Safety information" on page 4 before attempting to install this
product.
Electrical installation must be carried out by qualified professionals only.
For protection from dangerous electric shock, the luminaire must be grounded
(earthed). The AC power distribution system must be fitted with current overload
and ground-fault (earth-fault) circuit breakers as well as a mea ns to isolate
luminaires from power and lock out power during service.
Important! Do not connect the Exterior 120 0 Image Projector to an electrical dimmer
system. Doing so can damage the electronics.
See Figure 6 on page 18 for a schematic diagram of cable layout.
If there is a break or cut at any point in a cable (for example at a connection point), and if
this is exposed to water, moisture can be drawn up the inside of the cable due to the
vacuum effect of temperature fluctuations during operation. Ensure that the luminaire is
protected from the entry of water via the power cable by using IP65-rated connectors or
junction boxes, or by protecting connectors with weatherproof housings.
The Exterior 1200 Image Projector must be supplied with power via an electrical cable
that is adequately dimensioned for the current requirements and suitable for the
installation environment, particularly with regard to water, pollution, thermal and UV
resistance. Use Hypalon or neoprene rubber-jacket cable rated to 90° C (194° F)
minimum. The conductor size must be 1. 5 mm
2
(16 AWG) minimum. Check that all power
cables are in perfect condition.
See "Exterior 1200 Image Projector specifications" on page 86 for details of fuse rating
and typical current. If you require help in planning or dimensioning the power distribution
system, please contact your Martin Architectural supplier for assistance.
Electrical power installation consists of two steps:
1. Configuring for local AC power
2. Connecting to AC power.
3.2.1 Configuring for local AC power
Before AC power is applied to the Exterior 1200 Image Projector for the first time (or if the
AC power voltage or frequency changes), the luminaire must be configured to accept the
local power voltage and frequency as described in this section.
The Exterior 1200 Image Projector can accept the following AC voltages at 50 or 60 Hz:
Operating at the incorrect power setting can result in overheating and damage to the
luminaire and lamp. If your local power voltage differs from the voltage settings listed here
and in the luminaire, contact your Martin Architectural supplier for assistance.
• 200 V
• 208 V
•220 V
•230 V
•240 V
•250 V
•277 V
Installing AC power 21
The luminaire must be configured to accept the local AC power frequency and voltage by
connecting the free ends of two jumper leads. The fixed end of each lead sit s in an orange
terminal. The free end of each lead must be connected to the appropriate terminal on the
terminal block. Terminals are labelled.
The terminals are spring-loaded, and a lead can be inserted and released by pressing on
its terminal tab with a flat-head screwdriver.
To configure the luminaire for local AC power:
1. Make sure that the luminaire is isolated from AC power and cannot be accidentally
connected throughout the procedure.
2. Open the connections compartment as described in "3.1.4: Connections comp artment
access" on page 19.
3. See Figure 8. Connect the free end of the
frequency setting jumper lead (in the
section marked Hz setting) to the
terminal labeled with the local AC power
frequency.
4. Connect the free end of the voltage
setting jumper lead (in the section marked
Volt setting) to the terminal labeled with
the local AC power voltage.
3.2.2 Connecting to AC power
Power cable must enter the luminaire through an M20 x 1.5 cable gland that accepts 8 13 mm (0.32 - 0.5 in.) external diameter cables. A gland is supplied with the luminaire.
The cable gland must be replaced if the power cable diameter is not within this range (see
"8.4.2: Cable glands" on page 61).
One of two cable entry points can be used: either on the cover plate at the rear of the
luminaire, or through the bottom of the connections/power comp artment. Using the bottom
of the connections/power compartment is recommended, as cables installed here will not
be disturbed or flexed when the rear cover plate is removed for service. All cable entry/exit
holes that are not used must be sealed with blanking plugs.
1. Make sure that the power cable is isolated from power and that power cannot be
applied accidentally. If the luminaire has been in use, allow it to cool for at least 20
minutes.
2. If necessary, remove the rear cover plate as described in "3.1.4: Connections
compartment access" on page 19
3. Check that the jumper leads are correctly connected to match the local AC power
voltage and frequency (see "3.2.1: Configuring for local AC power" on page 20).

4. See Figure 9. Ensure that there is
a rubber seal B on the locking nut
end of the cable entry C, and
push this end through the hole
provided in the housing so that
the seal faces the outer surface
of the housing.
5. Screw the locking nut A onto the
cable entry from inside the
housing. Prevent the cable entry
from turning, and tighten the
locking nut until the seal makes a
water-resistant seal against the
outer surface of the housing. Do
not over-tighten, as this may
damage the seal or housing.
6. Thread the cable through the
compression nut F, washer E,
gland D, and cable entry C into
the housing.
7. Allow enough cable slack inside the housing to make connections. Prevent the cable
entry from turning and tighten the compression nut sufficiently to make a waterresistant seal. Do not over-tighten, as this may damage the gland. Check that the
cable is firmly gripped in the rubber gland.
8. See Figure 10. The power terminals block has four springloaded terminals labelled Ground, Neutral, Live 1 and
Live 2. Connect the power cable as follows:
• Connect the power cable’s ground (earth) wire to the
terminal marked Ground.
• If using a single-phase system, connect the power
cable’s neutral wire to the terminal marked Neutral and
connect the power cable’s live wire to the terminal
marked Live 1. Important! Do not connect the live wire
to the terminal marked Live 2 as there is internal
continuity between this terminal and the Neutral
terminal via one of the main fuses.
• If using two phases of a three-phase system to obtain 200 - 240 V between two
phases, connect one phase to Live 1 and the other phase to Live 2. Do not connect
anything to the neutral terminal.
• If using a single-phase three-wire earthed mid-point system (used in cert ain regions
of the USA) to obtain 200 - 240 V between two live conductors, connect one live
wire to Live 1 and the other live wire to Live 2. Do not connect anything to the
neutral terminal.

3.3 Installing a data link
Exterior 1200 Image Projector luminaires must be connected via a serial dat a link for DMX
controller operation and for synchronized stand-alone ope ration of multiple luminaires.
The data link is used to transmit DMX commands or synchronization data.
See Figure 6 on page 18 for a schematic diagram of cable layout.
3.3.1 Planning the data link
The following considerations must be taken into account when planning the data link:
• RS-485 data cable designed for exterior use is required. RS-485 cable has low
capacitance and a characteristic impedance of 85 to 150 Ohms. It is electrically shiel ded
and has at least 1 twisted pair of conductors. The minimum recommended wire size is
0.25 mm
2
(24 AWG) for runs up to 300 meters (1000 ft.) and 0.32 mm2 (22 AWG) for
runs up 500 meters (1640 ft).
• The maximum permitted control data cable length before a control signal amplifier is
required is 500 meters (1640 ft.).
• Luminaires must be ‘daisy-chained’, i.e. the data cable must be connected in one sin gle
chain of luminaires.
• Each daisy-chained link may connect a maximum of 32 fixtures.
• An optically isolated amplifier-splitter such as the Martin RS-485 Opto-Splitter (P/N
90758060) must be used to:
- extend a link beyond 500 meters (1640 ft.)
- extend the link to include a further maximum 32 luminaires, or
- branch the link into further single chains, each containing 32 luminaires. The Martin
Opto-Splitter allows a link to be branched into four new chains.
• Each chain on the link must be terminated by placing a resistance acro ss the hot (+) and
cold (-) conductors of the data link in the last device on the chain. This is achieved by
setting jumpers as described on page 26.
• Long parallel runs of AC power and control data cables may cause interference on the
data link and must be avoided. Even if not required by law, separate conduits are
recommended for power and data cables.
• One DMX universe has 512 DMX control channels available. In an inst allation containin g
multiple luminaires that each use 17 DMX channels like the Exterior 1200 Image
Projector, one DMX universe will be required for every 30 luminaires (512 ÷ 17 = 30 with
two channels unused).
3.3.2 Building the data link
Data cable must enter and exit the luminaire through M16 x 1.5 cable gland s that accep t
5.5 - 10 mm (0.22 - 0.39 in.) diameter cables. Two glands are supplied with the luminaire.
The glands must be replaced if the data cable external diameter is not within this range
(see "8.4.2: Cable glands" on page 61).
One of two cable entry points can be used: either on the cover plate at the rear of the
luminaire, or through the bottom of the connections/power comp artment. Using the bottom
of the connections/power compartment is recommended, as cables installed here will not
Installing a data link 25
be disturbed or flexed when the rear cover plate is removed for service. All cable entry/exit
holes that are not used must be sealed with blanking plugs.
Connection pinouts
XLR connection
XLR connectors are suitable if DMX cable is used for the data link.
XLR pin numbers are normally marked on connectors. Connectors must be wired using
the standard XLR DMX pin-out:
• Pin 1: Cable shield
• Pin 2: DMX Data 1 - (cold)
• Pin 3: DMX Data 1 + (hot)
Pins 4 and 5 on 5-pin XLR connectors are available for Data 2 connections in DMX 512-A
or similar systems. They must be wired as follows:
• Pin 4: DMX Data 2 - (cold)
• Pin 5: DMX Data 2 + (hot)
To avoid ground/earth loop interference, ensure that the DMX cable shield does not come
into contact with the shell or body of XLR connectors.
RJ-45 connection
RJ-45 connectors are suitable if CAT 5 cable is used for the data link.
RJ-45 cable connector pins are numbered from the left looking at the face of the
connector with the locking clip on top (see Figure 11). Connecto rs must be wired using the
standard RJ-45 DMX pin-out:
• Pin 1 (WHITE/orange): DMX hot (+)
• Pin 2 (ORANGE/white): DMX cold (-)
• Pins 7 (WHITE/brown) and 8 (BROWN/white):
Common
Pins 3 and 6 are available for Data 2 connections in
DMX 512-A or similar systems. They must be wired as
follows:
• Pin 3 (WHITE/green): Available for Data 2 hot (+)
• Pin 6 (GREEN/white): Available for Data 2 cold (-)
Pins 4 and 5 are not used in currently available lightin g con tr ol sys te ms but can be wired
as follows:
• Pin 4 (BLUE/white): Not used
• Pin 5 (WHITE/blue): Not used
Connecting the link
To build a data link:
1. If the luminaire has been in use, allow it to cool for at least 20 minutes.
2. Connect the data cable to a DMX output socket on the DMX controller and route it to
the first luminaire on the link.
3. If the rear cover plate is not already open, remove it as described in "3.1.4:
Connections compartment access" on page 19
Pin 1 Pin 8
Figure 11: RJ-45 cable
connector pins
26 Exterior 1200 Image Projector user manual
4. Pass the data cable into the luminaire using one of the supplied cable glands to en sure
waterproof cable entry. See page 22 for details of installing the cable gland.
5. Data cable can be connected either via screw terminals on removabl e connectors or
via RJ-45 connectors.
See Figure 12. Either connect the data cable
to the luminaire’s Data 1 DMX IN screw
terminals (A) as follows:
- Connect shield to the terminal marked
- Connect cold (-) to the terminal marked -
- Connect hot (+) to the terminal marked +
or install an RJ-45 connector on the data
cable respecting the pinout listed under "RJ-
45 connection" on page 25 and insert the
connector into the DMX IN RJ-45 socket (B).
6. Depending on whether the luminaire is the
last one on the link or whether the data link
needs to be continued to another luminaire,
follow one of the following two procedures:
• If the luminaire is the last one on a branch
of the data link, use a pair of long-nosed
pliers to move the DMX termination
jumpers from the Data set 1 pins (C)
marked OFF to the pins marked ON. This
places a resistance across data hot and
cold to terminate the data link. Ensure that
the termination resistance matches the
type of cable used by setting the Cable
impedance jumpers (D) to either 100 if
using CAT5 cable for the data link, or 120 if using standard DMX cable.
• If you need to continue the data link, leave th e termination jumpers at OFF and pass
the data output cable into the luminaire using another cable gland as described
above. Connect to the luminaire’s Data 1 DMX OUT terminals (E) or RJ-45 DMX
OUT socket (F), respecting the same pinouts as for the data input cable.
7. If using shielded CAT5 cable, connect the cable shield to PCB ground (earth) by
routing the cable under the clamp (G), folding back the cable shield and tightening the
clamp so that it makes good contact with the shield.
8. If data 2 conductors will be used for communication on the data link, make data 2
connections at the Data 2 connectors as with the da ta 1 connections described above.
9. If the power cable has not already been connected, you can connect it now (see
"3.2.2: Connecting to AC power" on page 21). Otherwise reinstall the rear cover plate
as described in "3.1.4: Connections compartment access" on page 19.
10. Route the data output cable to the data input of the next luminaire, and continue
connecting up to a total of 32 luminaires, output to input, as described above.
Add an optically isolated amplifier/splitter into the link if you intend to add more than 32
luminaires or branch the link.

Section 4. General
28 Exterior 1200 Image Projector user manual
4.1 General
DANGER! Read "Safety information" on page 4 before applying power to the
Exterior 1200 Image Projector.
This section contains general information about the features and functions as well as
basic programming and operating principles of the Exterior 1200 Image Projector. Read
this section to familiarize yourself with the luminaire before attempting to program or
operate it.
Important! Leave the luminaire powered on permanently except during service.
4.1.1 Powering on
When the luminaire is connected to power for the first time, it will start running a factoryset light show to test the fixture. It will continue to run this test show until a new show is
programmed into it, or until it receives DMX commands.
When the luminaire is powered on in normal use, the luminaire software version appears
in its display, runs an internal test and resets all effects to start positions. It must complete
this reset before it can respond to DMX commands or run a stand-alone show.
4.1.2 Maintaining power and temperature
regulation
Except during service, maintain power to the luminaire perm a ne n tly ev en whe n the lam p
is not lit.
In hot environments, this will allow the cooling system to regulate the luminaire’s internal
temperature at all times. Heat damage resulting from failure to maintain power is not
covered by the product warranty.
In cold environments, the internal heat generated will keep electronics warm and ensure
satisfactory performance at ambient temperatures as low as -20°C (-4° F). Note that if the
temperature inside the luminaire falls below -10° C (14° F), effects are disabled and the
dimmer is closed until the internal temperature rises above this level again.
4.1.3 Powering off
Important! Leave power applied for 8 minutes after switching off the lamp.
If the lamp is lit and you wish to cut power (for service, for example), you must first switch
off the lamp via DMX or the onboard control panel and wait at lea st 8 minutes before you
cut power. This will give cooling fans enough time to reduce the luminaire’s temperature
and avoid heat damage. Damage caused by failure to follow this procedure is not covered
by the product warranty.
