2. INSTRUCTIONS

●CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

If a projector can’t start. Please check if the fuse is blown up. If it does, replace it with a new fuse with same ratings. And the

projector has over-temperature protective device. If the temperature is too high, the protective device will be triggered to shut the projector off. When it happens, please check if the fans run normally or fan shield is blocked by dust. After the issue is solved, restart the projector.

The accumulation of oil, smoke and dust on the lens will compromise the light output. Cleaning a projector is very necessary to

ensure a reliable use of it. Cooling fans need to be cleaned every 15days. Internal lens, reflector and hot mirror need to be cleaned periodically to optimize light output.

Cleaning frequency is to be decided by operations and its environment. Use soft cloth and normal detergent for glass for cleaning

work. It’s advised external optical system be cleaned every 20days and internal optical systems every 30/60days. Keep lens clean and do not touch optical parts with bare hands.

●Before any maintenance and cleaning, please ensure the project is off the power

●Only qualified person is allowed to do maintenance

●During maintenance and before maintenance, the projector must be off power.

●To avoid internal damage, sun light or other light mustn’t penetrate into the projector via front lens whether it runs or not

●Do not use alcohol or other organic solvent to clean the housing to avoid damage.

●Do not use any solvent with chemical elements to clean color filters or hot mirror.

4. INSTALLATION

● RIGGING

Take 2 clamp and 1 the safety cord out from the package and mount 1 clamp on the BOTTOM of fixture with 2 retainers attached to the clamp. Hang the fixture on the steel truss and fasten the retainers attached to the clamp. Always ensure that the location that you are

going to mount the unit is secure and is strong enough to support the weight of the unit (See the WARNING as shown above) To pass SAFETY CORD through the SAFETY HOLE on the back cover of the base of the fixture for safety! Always ensure that the

unit is firmly anchored to avoid vibration and slipping whilst functioning.

WARNING:

●The projector MUST be lifted or carried by the HANDLES instead of clamps.

●.For safety the safety cord should afford 10 times the Projector’s weight.

● POWER CONNECTION

Connect the power cord as follows:

L (live) =brown E (earth) =yellow/green N (neutral) =blue

Before power connection, please ensure the power supplied must match what the nameplate says. It is recommended that each projector be connected with power separately so that they may be individually switched on and off.

Note: If projectors are connected in series, please connect POWERIN port of the 1st projector with the Power Mains, then connect its POWER OUT with POWER IN of the 2nd projector, and so on till all fixtures are connected. If the voltage supplied is 200V-240V, the maximum projectors connected is 8pcs, if it is 100V-120V, the maximum is 4pcs. The diameter of the cores of the wires for the Power in/out cables must be equal or bigger than 2.5mm

2 .

●The earth wire(yellow/green) must be connected to the ground. And electrical connection must be in

accordance with the standards concerned.

●If any questions about the electrical installation, do not continue but consult a qualified electrician.

●DMX CONTROL CONNECTION

Connection between controller and projector and between one projector and another must be made with a twin-screened cable, with each wire having at least a 0.5mm in diameter. Connection to and from the projector is via cannon 5 pin (which are included with the projector) or 5 pin XLR plugs and sockets. The XLR's are connected as shown in the figure above.

Note: care should be taken to ensure that none of the pins touch the metallic body of the plug or each other. XLR plugs and sockets mustn’t be connected in any way other than mentioned in the above figure. The projector accepts digital control signals in protocol DMX512 (1990).

Connect the controller’s DMX output to the first fixture’s DMX input, and connect the first fixture’s DMX output to the second fixture’s DMX input and connect the rest fixtures in the same way. Eventually connect the last fixture’s DMX output to a DMX terminator as shown in the figure below.

Page 7

7/24

●DMX TERMINATOR

In the Controller mode, at the last projector in the chain, the DMX output has to be connected with a DMX terminator. This prevents electrical noise from disturbing and corrupting the DMX control signals. The DMX terminator is simply an XLR connector with a 120 (ohm) resistor connected across pins 2 and 3, which is then plugged into the output socket on the last projector in the chain. The connections are illustrated below.

5. SETUP AND CONFIGURATION

●Front Panel Operation

Projector configuration can be set conveniently via push buttons and color touch screen.

To browse through or change the projector ’s settings, touch the white area of the touch screen or press OK button for more than 3s(Only powered by the battery, pressing the OK button will turn on the display) , then the screen will display the projector ’s function menus. Each main menu has its sub-menus. And each menu stands for special function. For the details, please see the following:

1. To set or browse through the functions via the icon interface, push the buttons on the left and right or touch the icon with the

desired function.

Press the left key or touch the X icon on top-right to go back to the upper level menu. If no action, the system will automatically go back to initial display status.

Shortcut keys:: with the graphic display, its top shows the projector ’s name . There are 3 shortcut keys to change between Chinese and English languages, invert the display and go back to the upper level menu.

● DMX START ADDRESS

If many projector s are controlled by the controller, each projector should be set with a start address to receive signals sent by the

controller and respond to it. The projector have 3 DMX modes. There are standard mode, extended mode and short mode, For

example standard mode has 29 channels, so set the No. 1 Projector ’s address 001, No. 2 Projector ’s address 030, No. 3 Projector ’s

address 059 and so on.

Switch on the Projector . Press OK key more than 3 seconds to unlock panel.

Select DMX Address icon and press OK key or touch the icon directly on the display and select DMX address at the 2nd level menu

for the address setting. Press UP or DOWN keys or touch <<、>> displayed for the DMX address desired.

Press OK key to confirm.

Press the left key to go back to the upper level menu.

●DMX WIRELESS CONTROL (If the projector has the function)

The projector has wireless control function with wireless receiver module and antenna for remote control.

The setup of it is below:

1. Enter into the projector’s menu. Select the menu “Config Settigns” via the bottoms of UP and DOWN

2. Select DMX control Mode---- Wireless First (Note: do not select XLR ONLY),then wireless indication in the

front panel will be on, meaning wireless control function is activated.

Only after the projector is linked with a transmitter, can it receive wireless signal sent by the transmitter. If unlinking it,

Press “Enter” for the menu of Unlink Wireless under the upper level menu of Config Settigns .

●STAND-ALONE MODE

Operate the projector without connecting with a controller, enable the master mode through the operation panel, the projector will run in Stand-Alone mode automatically. DMX address can be set at any number within 512.

●MASTER/SLAVE MODE

Many projectors can run synchronously in the Master/Slave mode by linking them with each other. First, connect the first projector ’s DMX output to the second projector ’s DMX input using XLR-XLR control cable and then connect the second projector ’s DMX output to the third projector ’s DMX input, and so on until all projector are connected in this way. Eventually connect the last projector ’s DMX output to a DMX terminator. Set 1st projector as the master and others are Slaves.

Start Addresses of all Slaves are 001; Operation mode of the Master can be set any mode for a Master’ and Slaves’ operation mode can be set accordingly.

After Powered on, the group will run in Master/Slave Mode
