TrueSource® Technology
After significant research and development efforts, Prism Projection has solved many of the problems associated with LED based lighting devices developing the TrueSource® system. TrueSource assures color consistency by utilizing active live color metering, achieves a full spectral response by using carefully selected multiple primary emitters and provides a consistent flat field with next generation optics and reflector systems.
Live Color Metering
At the heart of every TrueSource system is a Tristimulus color sensor. Tristimulus sensors, while electronic, actually “see” in a way that mimics the human eye’s response to color. Even though every human sees color differently, there are well established base lines for normal color response. By taking live measurements and adjusting how each LED or group of LEDs is being driven, the problems of color shift during use are removed. Tristimulus values are referenced to the well established CIE 1931 2° observer color space. By referencing a standard, TrueSource systems are inherently calibrated to each other. The problems of using only an initial calibration and predictive algorithms are not an issue with TrueSource systems.
Full Spectrum
TrueSource systems use several colors of primary emitters. At the minimum each TrueSource system will use 5 primary colors. These primaries are carefully chosen to minimize the valleys of the SED curve. When outputting 3200k “white”, TrueSource systems have a CRI of 95+. With deep understanding of how to drive each individual LED, TrueSource is not locked into only using a fixed number of primary emitters. TrueSource is also flexible enough to utilize LEDs from several manufacturers at once. With this discreet control, TrueSource systems can pick from the best available LEDs on the market.
Since all TrueSource enabled instruments are structured to provide a full spectral response, they have a very wide gamut.
Interfacing with Color
TrueSource systems allow the designers and operators to ask for and interface with color in very specific ways not normally seen in current lighting equipment. Instead of asking designers to describe color in a non-standardized way, ie. unknown RGB values, RGBW, RGBA, RGBCA, or seven discreet primaries. TrueSource

instruments can be configured to respond directly to x,y coordinates on the CIE 1931 2° color space. An RGB mode that is based on the NTSC gamut, but slightly wider is available. The designer may also elect to use Hue and Saturation to describe the desired color. Each of these modes uses a dedicated dimmer channel that does not shift the color. Designers may also add a specific Correlated Color Temperature channel (CCT). The CCT channel takes over from the other color channels, not by adding white, but producing specific white points along the black body curve.
Optics
The TrueSource optical systems are truly the next generation of optical design. The beams are flat, and fully collimated.
Each unit produces one shadow. A shadow that would be expected from a traditional source or natural sunlight. Of course diffusion can be added to soften or adjust the shadow, instead of starting from an unfamiliar shadow.

Basic Installation
Before installing this product please make sure that you have read all warnings and safety information provided in this manual.
Caution: The product must be placed/mounted on a rack, shelf, or other suitable surface that is rated to support the weight of the product.
The product must also be placed such that the safety cable can be attached. The safety cable must be attached in such a way that it can not be removed without releasing the clip.
The safety cable should be attached at all times during both installation and removal of the product. Attaching the safety cable should be the first step before installing the product and the last step after removing the product.
Mounting the product
Step 1:Install a c-clamp or other appropriate rated pipe coupling device to the steel
yoke of the RevEAL Studio Instrument.
Step 2: Loop the safety cable through your support, such that after clipping the carabiner the loop cannot slip off of your support.
Step 3: After ensuring that the loop cannot slip off of the support, clip the carabiner to the safety cable.
Step 4: Position the mouth of the c-clamp over your intended mounting surface. Once you are happy with the location, tighten the clamp until the product is secured to the surface.
Caution: The product should never be installed without the proper use of the safety cable.

Adjusting Yoke Height
To facilitate some mounting orientations, it may be necessary to extend the yoke. DO NOT ATTEMPT WHILE THE INSTRUMENT IS HANGING.
1. Loosen the lock nuts on either side of the yoke.
2. Slide the yoke to desired extension.
3. Be sure to tighten lock nuts on both sides of the yoke.
Attaching Data and Power Cables
Note: This lighting fixture can be used individually or modules can be daisy chained. In a chain of fixtures each module can be individually addressed, or each can have its own address wherein each fixture is independent of the others.
Step 1: If Needed attach an appropriate connector to the end of the power cord included with the product. Any connector you attach to the end of the product must be rated for 15 Amperes and 250VAC, and of the grounding type. The conductors in the power cable are color coded for ease of assembly.
Wire Color! Conductor function
Green or Green with Yellow Stripe" GROUND Blue or White" NEUTRAL Brown or Black" LINE
Step 2: After attaching the appropriate connector to the power cord you can attach the power cord to the fixture. The power cord will go into the power-in port (blue). Slide the connector into the port and twist the connector clockwise.
Step 3: Now that the unit has power you need to provide data to the unit. This is done by plugging in an approved 5 pin DMX cable. The data-in port is found on the rear, of the fixture. If you have daisy chained your units, data-in from your second unit should

come from the data-out port of the first unit. Continue attaching cables in this fashion, 1 to 2, 2 to 3, and so on. Follow best practices for DMX wiring, Do not exceed recommended cable lengths or number of receivers on a chain.
The unit may also be controlled via ArtNet. Contact Prism Projection for details.
