INSTALLING THE PROJECTOR

The unit was designed to make installation easy: it can be fitted on a floor, wall or ceiling as
required and will operate in any working position, as the head can be rotated through 90°.
Always ensure that the projector is firmly anchored to avoid vibration and slipping whilst
functioning. Always ensure that the structure to which you are attaching the projector is
secure and is able to support each Design 150 PRO. For safety the projector should ha ve a
secondary fixing with a safety chain through the 2 secondary safety eyes on both sides of
the unit.
Note: For installing the barndoors, first install the 4 copper stand-offs and sealing rubber
washers in the unit head, and then place the barndoors on the 4 copper stand-offs and
fasten them with 4 screws and flat washers.

FITTING THE LAMP

Loosen the 2 M6 screws and then open the head cover as shown in the figure abo ve.
Reveal the lamp holder by gently moving the colour filters and blades aside from the center.
Plug the lamp into the lamp holder. Note: To avoid premature lamp failure, do not touch the
lamp glass with your fingers. If you touch the lamp during installation, clean it carefully with
rubbing alcohol and a clean, lint-free cloth before operation.
Close the cover and then tighten the 2 M6 screws.

connect by yourself what you need. Open the underside of the base by undoing the 4
screws. You can see as shown in the figure above. Then connect the power cord to the
relevant holder. To pay attention to the voltage and frequency marked on the panel of the
projector. It is recommended that each projector is supplied separately so that they ma y be
individually switched on and off.

conforms to all relevant standards. Power consumption of the Design 150 PRO is
200W at 220V.

CONTROL CONNECTIONS

Connection between controller and projector and between one projector and another must
be made with 2 core screened cable, with each core having at least a 0.5mm diameter.
Use the 2 XLR cords provided to connect the control to the projector. The user also

connects by yourself what you need. Open the underside of the base by undoing the 4
screws. You can see as shown in the figure above . To connect the XLR cord to the relevant
holder.
The Design 150 PRO accepts digital control signals in standard DMX512 (1990) format.

Connect the controller’s output to the first fixture’s input, and connect the first fixture’s
output to the second fixture’s input. The rest may be deduced by analogy. Eventually
connect the last fixture’s output to a DMX terminator as shown in the figure below.

5/26

Design 150 PRO EN doc

In the Controller mode, the DMX output has to be connecte d with a DMX terminator at the
last fixture in the chain. This prevents electrical noise from disturbing and corrupting the
DMX control signals.

DMX TERMINATOR

The DMX terminator is simply an XLR connector with a 120Ω (ohm) resistor
connected across pins 2 and 3, which is then pl ugged into the output socket on the
last projector in the chain. The connections are illustra ted below.
