About Moiré Gobos

Moiré gobos contain two pieces of glass: one that is fixed and another that rotates. Since the two pieces of glass are
very close together, it creates an interesting interference effect (which is referred to as the "moiré"). Due to this
construction they do not contain sensors, and therefore cannot be calibrated to a certain orientation at startup as with
standard gobos.

CAUTION: Moiré gobo positions MUST be set using the menu system.

The Best Boy HP Luminaire is equipped with two, 5-pin XLR connectors for DMX IN and DMX THRU (out)
applications. DMX IN requires a 5-pin, female XLR connector and DMX THRU requires a 5-pin, male XLR connector.
When purchasing or constructing data cables, it is important that not only the correct cable type be used, but also
quality cable to ensure a reliable DMX512 system. Your cabling should meet the following USITT DMX specification
requirements:

+ Suitable for use with EIA485 (RS485) operation at 250k baud.
+ Characteristic impedance 85-150 ohms, nominally 120 ohms.
+ Low capacitance.
+ Two twisted pairs.
+ Foil and braid shielded.
+ 24 AWG minimum gauge for runs up to 1000 feet (300m).
+ 22 AWG minimum gauge for runs up to 1640 feet (500m).

Note: Microphone type cables and other general purpose, two-core audio or signal cables are not suitable for use
with DMX512.

A male XLR DMX512 termination connector is required at the last luminaire (or "far end of
the line") to prevent signal reflections. Signal reflections may cancel out the signal at
certain line lengths, resulting in errors. The terminator is also necessary for software
downloads and running tests on multiple luminaires. To construct your own connector,
you will need the following components:

+ 5-pin, male XLR connector.
+ 120 ohm resistor.

Note: A male termination connector is also available as an accessory from PRG. See "Replacement Items and

Accessories" on page 5.

Ethernet Cables

The Best Boy HP Luminaire is equipped with two RJ-45 type connectors for Ethernet input/output. Ethernet cabling
should follow these guidelines:

+ Ethernet cable assemblies must match the CAT5e specification.
+ Regular or crossover cables are acceptable.
+ Both EtherCon® and RJ-45 connectors are acceptable.

Figure 2-11: Data Connections

Observe the following guidelines when setting up the system:

+ A maximum of 32 luminaires may be connected in any one DMX512 or Ethernet data link. However, note that the

maximum limit applies to the luminaire "daisy-chain" only. Your system or console may require fewer luminaires
on a single data link path. Consult your console documentation for more information.

+ The Ethernet ports are not assigned as either In or Thru as the DMX512 ports are assigned. Ethernet can be

connected in any configuration.

+ Standard "star" topology should be used with Ethernet configurations. DO NOT create a "ring" with Ethernet.
+ The ports may not be used as converters (i.e., you cannot input Art-Net and get DMX512 out on an XLR, or vice

versa).

+ A relay allows Ethernet signals to pass through daisy-chained luminaires even if power is removed.

Power is provided by the AC Line Cord Cable Assembly (25.9812.0902.5) connected to the Neutrik® power input
connector. There is no power on/off switch. Turn off the circuit breaker at the power distribution rack
connection or disconnecting the Neutrik PowerCon.

POWER UP AND BASIC SETUP PROCEDURES

Home Screen

Powering Up the Luminaire

When AC power is applied, the luminaire will begin a calibration sequence which moves its pan, tilt, and all beam
control mechanisms. After calibration, the luminaire head will either stop at its "home" position (which positions the
pan axis at mid-rotation and the head parallel to the yoke with the lens pointing away from the luminaire upper
enclosure) or move to its current DMX-defined position if DMX512 data is present. The beam control mechanisms will
also move to their "home" or DMX-defined positions. The lamp is set to OFF in the default mode.

The luminaire also contains an on-board battery so that it can be addressed and configured without being connected
to main power (refer to "Wake Switch" on page 30).

CAUTION: Before applying power, be sure the luminaire is hung or positioned so that the head and yoke can

move freely without restriction. Refer clearances in Figure 2-6 on page 16.

To power up:

Step 1. At each luminaire, connect power. Allow luminaire to complete its calibration sequence.
Step 2. For normal power up, the Menu Touchscreen "Home" screen will display Status OK. The Home screen will

also display the luminaire’s DMX address and lamp information.
Step 3. Check Comm LED for proper operation. Refer to "Comm LED Operation" on page 24.
Step 4. To strike lamp, send appropriate command from console or follow steps provided in "Starting the Lamp" on

page 27.

operation, refer to the PRG Followspot Controller User
Manual (02.9812.0060).

The Pan/Tilt menu provides a FOLLOW SPOT panel. This panel displays which mechanisms are currently enabled for
followspot control (e.g., "intensity," "zoom/iris," "all," "none," etc.)

Pressing FOLLOW SPOT brings up the Follow Spot menu. This menu is used to specify which mechanisms (of the
four available) are controlled by a Followspot Controller, which will override DMX control on those mechanisms.

BEST BOY® HP SPOT LUMINAIRE USER MANUAL 37

When any or all mechanisms are enabled for followspot control, "FSC Active" will be displayed in the Comm menu.
The DMX channels associated with the active FSC mechanism(s) will be highlighted in yellow to indicate that those

values come directly from the Followspot Controller and are not DMX-controlled.

When any mechanism has been enabled for followspot control, pan and tilt will automatically become free. Pan and
tilt will remain free until Followspot mode is turned off (all mechanisms deselected). At that time, upon exiting the Pan/
Tilt menu, pan and tilt will recalibrate (unless pan/tilt mode is changed to free or locked before exiting the Pan/Tilt
menu).

When pan and tilt are in Free mode due to followspot mechanisms being activated, “Pan & Tilt follow” will be
displayed in the CONFIG panel on the main menu.

Note that the Followspot Controller device does not need to be connected in order to enable followspot control on the
luminaire. If there is no FSC connected while in Followspot mode, the selected mechanisms will simply ignore DMX
until Followspot mode is exited.

Note: The FSC will control the selected mechanisms whether or not DMX is present on the attached fixture.

Special Notes

Macros

The Best Boy HP Luminaire offers 27 pre-defined sequences, called Macros, which allow for quick and easy control of
luminaire functions such as iris, zoom, framing, and more.

Macro control overrides the DMX control for that parameter. For example, if an iris macro is running, then the DMX
control for iris will not have any effect. Some macros also control multiple functions.

Gobo: Set Zero Position

Set Zero Position allows adjustment of the gobo wheel home position. Refer to "Gobo Set Zero Position" on page 52.

Zoom Tables

The zoom tables, which allow the fixture to maintain sharp focus on an image throughout the zoom range, are
sensitive to the throw distance. For this reason, a variety of zoom table versions are available for use with different
throws. The Zoom Table Select values are handled live to allow cue recall with different zoom tables. If the zoom value
changes and the control channel is on one of the zoom select values, the indicated zoom table will be used for that
zoom recall.

Note also that zoom table select is not persistent between power cycles, it always resets to the default 30' table at
power-up.

Framing

The Framing channels are optional, as controlled by the "Enable Framing" menu selection. (Refer to "Configuration

Screen" on page 33.)

The blade positions are as follows:

Timing Channels

Channel Functions

Timing channel control improves the timed moves of certain groups of parameters. Four timing channels are provided
for this purpose: Focus, Color, Beam, and Image.

Timing channels support time values of up to six minutes.

Timing Channel Mapping

Refer to the Timing Channels Table starting on the next page. The following guidelines apply:

+ A timing value of zero is full speed.
+ A time value of 100% (or 255 in DMX) causes the associated parameter(s) to follow cue fade time (console time)

rather than the timing channel.

+ Timing channels can be set in either % or 0-255 (DMX) modes, with the values assigned - as shown in the tables.

Gobo Set Zero Position

OUT OF ALIGNMENT PROPERLY ALIGNED

GOBO WHEEL

The Gobo Set Zero command allows adjustment of the gobo wheel’s home position. When this command is issued,
the luminaire sets the current wheel position as the "zero" position and stores this offset so it will be retained at the
next startup. This allows correction for a sensor that may be slightly out of position causing the gobo wheel to not be
perfectly centered and therefore obstructing part of the beam in the open position.

To set zero position:

Step 1. Using console, move wheel into desired center position.
Step 2. Execute Set Zero Position command (Control Channel DMX value 80). The luminaire will now remember the

setting as the new zero position.

mechanisms to be disabled during testing.

+ Moiré Positions - press to bring up Moiré Gobos screen, which

provides a way to specify the wheel positions containing Moiré
gobos. Moiré gobos contain two pieces of glass: one that is fixed
and another that rotates. Due to this construction they do not
contain sensors, and therefore cannot be calibrated to a certain orientation at startup as with standard gobos.

+ Mech Test - press to bring up Mechanical Tests Screen. (See "Mechanical Tests" on page 60 for more

explanation.)

+ Clean Lenses - press to bring up Cleaning Lenses screen. This feature will position lenses so that all surfaces

may be cleaned with a cloth. (Note that pressing the buttons does not actually clean the lenses.)

Mechanical Tests

The Mechanical Tests menu provides a method for exercising all
luminaire mechanisms individually. Each mechanism has a similar Test
screen. Cyan is shown in the example to the right.

The following test functions are available:

+ Test Ch ase - The mechanism will move back and forth between

two positions. The START/STOP button starts and stops the
motion, and the SPEED button sets the rate of the motion. For
mechanisms with sensors, one of the positions will be on the
sensor and the other position will be off.

+ Manual Control - The knob at the bottom right of the screen

moves the mechanism through its range of travel, manually.

+ Manual Position Entry - Press POSITION to enter a value for the

mechanism's position.

+ Feedback -The current status of the mechanisms encoder

(POSITION) and sensor (SENSOR) are shown (if available for that
mechanism). STATUS indicates whether the mechanism is in an
error state or normal operating state.

+ Utility Functions - Press Recalibrate to recalibrate the

mechanism or Disable to turn off the motor control to allow the
mechanism to move freely.

+ Configuration Information - HOME OFFSET indicates whether

the home position* has been adjusted to fine tune sensor positions
(applies to gobo wheel only; refer to Control Channel settings in

"DMX Channel Mapping" on page 39).

* Due to small variations in sensor and sensor board positions, the open

position on a gobo wheel might not be precisely aligned with the optical
axis, creating a slight blockage on one side of the open beam. Adjust
the wheel position via DMX to get the proper alignment and send the
HOME OFFSET command to store the current position as the new
"home" position. This position is stored in persistent memory and will
be used going forward as the home position.

60 BEST BOY® HP SPOT LUMINAIRE USER MANUAL

Group Tests

Slave fixtures will display "SLAVE"
in the Group Tests screen as shown.

The Group Test menu allows multiple Best Boy HP Luminaires to be run through a configurable test sequence when
chained together via DMX512 or Ethernet. (Refer to "Connecting Power and Data" on page 21 for more information
about daisy-chaining.)

To perform a group test:

Step 1. At Group Test screen, select options to run: Pan/Tilt, Intensity, Colors, Gobos, Zoom, and/or Framing.
Step 2. Select test option: Concurrently (all selected tests are run at once) or Sequentially (tests are run one at a

time as each one finishes).

Step 3. Press START to begin testing. All luminaires connected to the main fixture (now referred to as the "Master")

will become "Slaves" and follow the test routine set on the Master in an endless loop.

Step 4. To stop the test sequence, press STOP on the Master.
While in group test, a Master can manually change certain values by using the Manual Control screen. From here, you

can adjust the levels of parameters not active in the test sequence. For example, if a test were running on gobos and
colors, you can adjust the pan and tilt to point the Master and all Slaves to a position where it will be easier see the
output of the fixtures.

Software Update Using LumLoader Application

Introduction

The LumLoader application allows you to update the software in a Best Boy HP Luminaire. The update will be sent
over an Ethernet connection. The luminaire can take the Ethernet input directly, or the update can be translated to
DMX512 signal with an appropriate device, either Series 400® or a PRG Node (with the required software update).
The fixtures can be daisy-chained to load multiple fixtures at once.

Supported configurations:

Note: There should be no active control (DMX512 or Ethernet) during the update process.

Preparation - Java

The loader (LumLoader) is a Java application which can be run on a Mac or a PC computer.

Note: Microsoft Windows® and new Mac computers do not come with the required Java run-time library installed, so
you may need to go to the Sun website (java.com/getjava/) to download Java.

Selecting an Ethernet Interface

Connect the computer to the system, and start the LumLoader application. When the application starts, it will ask
which active Ethernet port should be used. Select the appropriate port. You may be able to differentiate the ports by
IP address, compared with your network setup. Typically the en0 is the first built-in Ethernet port, and other interfaces
could include additional network ports or wireless adapters.

Selecting the Module

The loader can support multiple versions of software, so make sure the appropriate version is selected. The default
version will typically be fine.

Download the Software

Press "Start Download" to initiate the update. You should see the luminaires immediately drop into the startup screen
and erase flash, which takes about 30 seconds. Then the new module is sent out, the screen indicates "Loading",
and when complete they will go back to the main menu and start calibration.

If the fixture already has the update software version, it will not attempt the update.

62 BEST BOY® HP SPOT LUMINAIRE USER MANUAL

Troubleshooting

+ If the LumLoader application does not start up, make sure the Java library is installed.
+ Make sure the network port is active before starting the application. Sometimes it takes several seconds for the

operating system to recognize the network link.

+ Make sure there is only one instance of the LumLoader application running.
+ Wireless should be disabled on the computer.

Software Crossload

The Information menu provides a method for sending a luminaire’s current software version to all connected
luminaires. (Luminaires can be daisy-chained via DMX512 or Ethernet.)

To initiate the software crossload, press Crossload Software at the Information screen. At confirmation screen, press
"Yes." If a connected luminaire already has that software version, it will do nothing. If it does not have the same
version, it will go into the boot screen and start updating.

Note: There should be no active control (DMX512 or Ethernet) during the update process.

EQUIPMENT HANDLING

Lamp hours

Proper Lamp Servicing and Operation

Servicing

+ When handling a lamp, hold it by the ceramic base while wearing cotton gloves or finger cots. Do not touch the

glass envelope (bulb). If you touch the glass with bare fingers, wipe off any fingerprints with alcohol.

Heat

+ When lamps are lit, the interior of the luminaires becomes very hot. To aid in the airflow circulation within the

luminaires, after dousing the lamps, wait 5 minutes before removing power to the luminaires. This will provide
enough time for the equipment fan to cool off the unit.

Lamp Life

+ When operating arc lamps, allow luminaires to operate for at least 3 minutes. It takes about 3 minutes for the fill

components (mercury and halogen-metal compounds) in the lamp tubes to vaporize completely. If the lamps are
switched off earlier than 3 minutes, the fill components are partially vaporized. The inadequately vaporized fill
components and the electrode material (tungsten) are deposited in the areas of the lamp tubes that have
remained cool. As a result, the lamp tubes blacken prematurely and reduce the service lives of the lamps.

+ If system will be unattended for more than 3-4 hours, luminaire lamps should be doused.
+ The lamp indicator (available on the menu Home screen) displays total lamp hours. Lamp hours are shown in

green if under threshold, yellow at 650 hours, and red at 750 hours.

before 750 hours.

It is mandatory that the lamp be changed

CAUTION: It is mandatory that the lamp be changed before 750 hours.

GLOSSARY

This glossary provides useful terms associated with operating the Best Boy HP Spot Luminaire.

Glossary of Terms

8-Bit DMX

The universally accepted lighting control protocol in the entertainment industry. A console uses this protocol to
control specific devices in a lighting system. A DMX512 channel packet is eight bits of absolute parameter data. 8-bit
refers to the resolution of the signal: 256 step resolution, providing channel values from 0 through 255. A DMX512
data packet is a group of 512 data channels.

16-Bit DMX

To smooth out the movement of automated luminaires, the industry has adopted 16-bit DMX. This is not a change to
the DMX512 specification, rather a change in the way luminaires and consoles treat DMX512 information. In practice,
16-bit DMX adds a DMX512 channel each to pan and tilt - pan coarse, pan fine, tilt coarse, tilt fine, instead of just pan
and tilt. The console and luminaire combine these levels and increase the resolution of pan and tilt from 256 steps to
a theoretical maximum 65,536 steps at the console level, resulting in the ability to position the luminaire more
accurately.

Address

A numerical "name" given to a device on a DMX512 line indicating which of 512 possible channels it will respond to.

Align (lamp)

The process of adjusting the lamp within the reflector to obtain the desired output quality of the beam.

Arc Lamp

A type of lamp which creates light by forming an arc of electricity. Brightness is achieved by including gasses and
metals within the envelope of the lamp which dissolve and give off a bright light. Arc lamps must be dimmed
mechanically because electrical dimming will extinguish the arc.

Art-Net

Protocol for sending DMX512 data over IP networks.

Attribute

An individual controllable aspect of a luminaire: pan, tilt, color, etc. Also known as "parameter."

Beam

1) The size, shape and sharpness of image of the light beam as projected on stage.

2) A function of the luminaire related to the size, shape, and sharpness of the light beam, specified by beam and
edge data, and use of gobos (patterns) as required.

Blade

One of the four components of the Framing mechanism used to mask off certain areas of the beam’s output.

Channel

A control reference which collects a device’s associated thumbwheel address(es) (device, lamp power, etc.) and maps
them to a single selectable number. Channels are assigned via the patch setup. (Also referred to as a "Control
Channel.")

Console Timing

Time value in seconds or minutes applied to an entire cue.

CMY

Acronym for "Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow."

86 BEST BOY® HP SPOT LUMINAIRE USER MANUAL

DMX512

Digital multiplexing; an industry standard protocol. 8-bit protocol with a maximum of 256 steps of resolution per
channel. Maximum of 512 controllable channels per DMX data stream.

DMX512 Cable

Industry standard cable consists of two twisted pair and a shield, and 5-pin XLR style connectors.
The pin out is: pin 1 = common (shield), pin 2 = data -, pin 3 = data +.
The second pair (pins 4 & 5) may be used for a secondary data link.

DMX512 Universe

A group of up to 512 DMX channels. Consoles may have more than one universe, usually labeled in groups of 512.

Douse

To de-energize a luminaire lamp. (Douse is unrelated to intensity states.)

Ethernet

Networking technology used to connect local area networks (LANs) via CAT5 cable or wireless.

Fixture Orientation

Based on the direction the pigtail points as it exits the fixture.

Flipped Focus

When one or more fixtures inadvertently move differently from others in the system.

Focus

The point to which the light beam is directed. Also, a function of the luminaire related to the direction of the beam as
specified by pan and/or tilt data.

Framing

A device/function of the luminaire which can be used to mask off certain areas of the beam’s output.

Gobo

A removable piece of glass or metal which contains a pattern used to create backgrounds or textures when projected
onto scenery or cycloramas. Gobos typically contain geometrical shapes or natural elements such as fire, stars, or
leaves.

Gobo, Moiré

See

Moiré Gobo

.

Hard Reset

Restarts luminaires and reloads operating system and cue data.

Home Position

Pan and Tilt values at 50%. Also called “Zero Position” or a "50/50" cue or group.

Indexing

A function of a rotating gobo mechanism.

Intensity

A value placed on the relative brightness of a lighting fixture; 100% is considered "full," and 0% is considered "out."

Iris

A motor controlled mechanism which is used to adjust the beam diameter.

BEST BOY® HP SPOT LUMINAIRE USER MANUAL 87

Lamp

Light source consisting of filament or electrodes, base, and envelope or "bulb."

Luminaire Calibration

The process of a luminaire finding its end stops for all parameters.

Macro

A pre-defined sequence that allows for quick and easy control of luminaire functions such as iris, zoom, framing, and
more.

Moiré Gobo

A gobo that has two pieces of glass wherein one is fixed and the other rotates. Since the two pieces of glass are very
close together, it creates an interesting interference effect (which is referred to as the "moiré").

Palette

Term for groups of groups; i.e. all the color groups would be considered the Color Palette, all the beam groups would
be the Beam Palette, etc.

Pan

The movement of the luminaire around the axis of the yoke.

Parameter

An individual controllable aspect of a luminaire: pan, tilt, color, etc. Also known as "Attribute."

Patch

The act of assigning a DMX512 channel to a control channel on a console.

Reply

Digital data signals transmitted from each luminaire to the console. Only one luminaire may transmit at a time, in
response to a request from the console.

Signal

Control protocol from a lighting console or interface.

Shutter

See

Framing.

Splitter (Isolator)

Device used to optically isolate and split a DMX512 signal.

Note: A DMX "two-fer" cannot be used to divide a signal.

Start

To energize a luminaire arc lamp (applies to arc-lamp luminaires only).

Strobe

A special lighting effect which produces multiple rapid bursts of high intensity light.

Terminate/Termination

Termination refers to the dampening of DMX signal at the end of the transmission line. Termination is created by
placing a 100 ohm resistor between pins 2 and 3 of the DMX line. Often, there is a switch on DMX devices to do this
internally. If not, a terminator is provided in the form of an XLR connector with the proper resistor between pins 2 and
3 to be placed in the DMX Thru port on the device.

Tilt

The movement of the luminaire around the axis of the tilt tube.

88 BEST BOY® HP SPOT LUMINAIRE USER MANUAL

Time

Control of the duration of the change of the variable parameters of some automated luminaires and other devices in a
lighting system.

Timing Channel

A Timing Channel is used in lieu of cue fade rate to determine the time it will take a luminaire to move from one setting
to another. For example, a cue in which a luminaire pans from one side of stage to the other may look "steppy" if cue
fade rate is used, because of the nature of the DMX512 signal. To overcome this, a timing channel allows the luminaire
to calculate the move "in time," effectively smoothing out the movement.

Zero Position

Pan and Tilt values at 50%. Also called "Home Position" or a "50/50" cue or group.

Zoom Table

Allows the fixture to maintain sharp focus on an image throughout the zoom range. (Note that zoom tables are
sensitive to throw distance. For this reason, a variety of zoom table versions are available for use with different
throws.)
