4. Installation
4.1 Connection to the mains
For protection from electric shock,the xture must be earthed!
The ColorSpot 700E AT is equipped with auto-switching power supply that automatically adjusts to any 50/60Hz AC power source from 100-240 Volts.
For use with 100-130 V supplies,the both main 6.3 A fuses has to be exchanged for 10 A fuses which are enclosed in the packing.
To install the 10 A fuses:
1. Disconect the xture from AC power.
2. Unscrew the "live" fuseholder on the rear panel of the base with a flat-tip screwdriver from the housing (anticlockwise).
3. Remove the 6.3 A fuse from the fuseholder.
4. Put the 10 A fuse in the fuseholder.
5. Replace the fuseholder in the housing and screw it fully clockwise.
6.Repeat steps 2-5 for "neutral" fuseholder
If you need to t the power cable with a power plug that is suitable for your local AC power outlets, installl a 3-prong grounding-type plug on the power cable. The earth has to be connected! If you have any doubts about proper installation, consult a qualied electrician.

4.2 Fitting the lamp
DANGER ! Install the lamps with the device switched off only. Unplug from mains before !
To insert the lamp (MSR GOLD 700 FastFit):
1. Disconnect the xture from power and allow it to cool at least 15 minutes.
2. Make sure that xture´s head is in the position as shown on the picture.Loosen the two quarter-turn fasteners (1) marked “X,Y“ on the lamp cover (2) to turn the cover down.
3. Holding the lamp by its ceramic base (3), carefully turn the lamp to the left as shown on the picture in order to loosen the lamp from the lamp holder (4). Gently pull the lamp out of the lamp holder
4. Holding the new lamp by its ceramics base, gently insert the lamp to the lamp socket and turn the base
to the right. Make sure that the lamp is installed tightly
into the lamp socket. Do not install a lamp with a higher wattage! A lamp like this generates temperatures the device is not designed for. Damages caused by non-observance are not subject to warranty. Please follow the lamp manufacturer‘s notes! Do not touch the glass bulb bare hand during the installation!
5. Reinsert the lamp cover (2) and tighten two quarter-turn
fasteners (1) again.
6. Align the new lamp (see instructions below)
7. Reset „Lamp On Time” and „Lamp Strikes” counters in „Fixture information” menu.
Do not operate this xture with open lamp cover!
4.3 Lamp adjustment
The lamp holder is aligned at the factory. Due to differences between lamps, ne adjustment may improve light performance:
1. Switch on the xture and after reset turn on the lamp.
2. Cancel all effects, open the shutter and focus the light
on a
at surface (wall) using either DMX controller or function „Lamp adjustment” in „Special functions menu”.
3. Center the hot-spot (the brightest part of the beam) using
the
3 adjustment screws “A, B, C”. Turn one screw at a time to drag the hot-spot, diagonally across the projected image. If you cannot detect a hot -spot, adjust the lamp until the light is even. To reduce a hot-spot, pull the lamp in by turning all three screws „A, B, C” clockwise 1/4-turn at a time until the light is evenly distributed. If the light is brighter around the edge than it is in the center, or if light output is low, the lamp is too far back in the reector. „Push” the lamp out by turning the screws “A, B, C” counterclockwise 1/4-turn at a time until the light is bright and evenly distributed.

4.5 Rigging the xture
DANGER TO LIFE!
Please consider the respective national norms during the installation!
The installation must only be carried out by an authorized dealer!
The installation of the projector has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10 times the weight for 1 hour without any harming deformation.
The installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. an appropriate catch net. This secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that no part of the installation can fall down if the main attachment fails.
When rigging, derigging or servicing the xture staying in the area below the installation place, on bridges, under high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an expert before taking into operation for the rst time and after changes before taking into operation another time.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an expert after every four year in the course of an acceptance test.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by a skilled person once a year.
The projector should be installed outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated.
IMPORTANT! OVERHEAD RIGGING REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE, including (but not limited to) calculating working load limits, installation material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all installation material and the projector. If you lack these qualications, do not attempt the installation yourself, but instead use a professional structural rigger. Improper installation can result in bodily injury and.or damage to property.
The projector has to be installed out of the reach of people.
If the projector shall be lowered from the ceiling or high joists, professional trussing systems have to be used. The projector must never be xed swinging freely in the room.
Caution: Projectors may cause severe injuries when crashing down! If you have doubts concerning the safety of a possible installation, do NOT install the projector!
Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10 times the projector’s weight.
Danger of re ! When installing the device, make sure there is no highly inammable material (decoration articles, etc.) in a distance of min. 0.7 m.
CAUTION! Use 2 appropriate clamps to rig the xture on the truss. Follow the instructions mentioned at the bottom of the base.
Make sure that the device is xed properly! Ensure that the
structure (truss)to which you are attaching the xtures is secure.
The projector can be placed directly on the stage oor or rigged in any orientation on a truss without altering its operation characteristics . For overhead use, always install a safety-rope that can hold at least 10 times the weight of the xture. You must
.

4.6 DMX-512 connection
The xture is equipped with both 3-pin and 5-pin XLR sockets for DMX input and output.The sockets are wired in parallel. Only use a shielded twisted-pair cable designed for RS-485 and 3-pin or 5-pin XLR-plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller with the xture or one xture with another.
DMX - output DMX-input
XLR mounting-sockets (rear view): XLR mounting-plugs (rear view):
If you are using the standard DMX controllers, you can connect the DMX output of the controller directly with the DMX input of the rst xture in the DMX-chain. If you wish to connect DMX-controllers with other XLR-out­puts, you need to use adapter-cables.
Building a serial DMX-chain:
Connect the DMX-output of the rst xture in the DMX-chain with the DMX-input of the next xture. Always connect one output with the input of the next xture until all xtures are connected.
Caution: At the last xture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 resistor between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last xture.

4.7 Ethernet connection
The xtures on a data link are connected to the Ethernet with Art-Net communication protocol.The controlling software from PC (or lighting console) has to support Art-Net protocol. Art-Net communication protocol is a 10 Base T Ethernet protocol based on the TCP/IP.Its purpose is to allow transfer of large amounts of DMX 512 data over a wide area using standard network technology.
IP address is the Internet protocol address.The IP uniquely identies any node (xture) on a network. The Universe is a single DMX 512 frame of 512 channels.
The ColorSpot 700E AT is equipped with 8-pin RJ- 45 socket for Ethernet input.Use a network cable category 5 (with four “twisted” wire pairs) and standard RJ-45 plugs in order to connect the xture to the network.
RJ-45 socket (front view): RJ-45 plug (front view):
1- TD+ 5- Not connected 2- TD- 6- RX­ 3- RX+ 7- Not connected 4- Not connected 8- Not connected
Patch cables that connect xtures to the hubs or LAN sockets are wired 1:1,that is,pins with the same numbers are connected together: 1-1 2-2 3-3 4-4 5-5 6-6 7-7 8-8 If only the xture and the computer are to be interconnected,no hubs or other active components are needed.A cross-cable has to be used: 1-3 2-6 3-1 4-8 5-7 6-2 7-5 8-4
Direct Ethernet operation
Connect the Ethernet-inputs of all xtures in the xture chain with the network. Option “ Ethernet” has to be selected from “Set Ethernet Mode” menu on the xture. Set IP address (002.xxx.xxx.xxx / 010.xxx.xxx.xxx) and the Universe. Example:
(DMX address=56) (DMX address=29) (DMX address=1) IP addres=002.168.002.004 IP addres=002.168.002.003 IP addres=002.168.002.002 Universe=1 Universe=1 Universe=1
An advised PC setting: IP address: 002.xxx.xxx.xxx / 010.xxx.xxx.xxx (Different from xture IP addresses) NET mask: 255.0.0.0

Ethernet / DMX operation
Options “Ethernet/DMX” has to be selected from “Set Ethernet Mode” menu on the rst xture (connected to the network) in the xture chain,next xtures have standard DMX addresses. Connect the Ethernet-input of the rst xture in the data chain with the network. Connect the DMX output of this xture with the input of the next xture until all xtures are connected to the DMX chain.
Caution: At the last xture, the DMX chain has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 resistor between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a XLR-plug and connect it in the DMX-output of the last xture.
Example:
DMX address=57 DMX address=29 (DMX address=1) IP addres=002.168.002.002 Universe=0
DMX address=217 DMX address=29 (DMX address=1) IP addres=002.168.002.003 Universe=1

6. Controller mode
The xtures are individually addressed on a data link and connected to the controller.The xtures respond to the DMX signal from the controller.
6.1 DMX addressing
The control panel on the front panel of the xture base allows you to assign the starting DMX address from which the ColorSpot 700E AT will respond to the DMX controller. If you set, for example, the address to channel 29, the ColorSpot 700E AT will use the channel 29 to 55 for control (if DMX mode 2 is selected). Please, be sure that you don’t have any overlapping channels in order to control each ColorSpot 700E AT cor­rectly and independently from any other xture on the DMX data link. If two, three or more ColorSpot 700E AT are addressed similarly, they will work similarly. For address setting, please refer to the instructions under "Fixture Address".
Controlling:
After having addressed all ColorSpot 700E AT, you may now start operating these via your lighting controller. Note:After switching it on, the ColorSpot 700E AT will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or not.If there is no data received at the DMX-input, the display will start to ash "A001" with actually set ad­dress. This situation can occur if:
- the 3 pin (5pin) XLR plug (cable with DMX signal from controller) is not connected with the input of the Col­orSpot 700E AT
- the controller is switched off or defective, the cable or connector is defective or the signal wires are swaped in the input connector.
6.2 Remotely controllable functions
Lamp
The ColorSpot 700E AT is to be operated with a Philips MSR Gold 700 Fast Fit lamp. A relay inside of the ColorSpot 700E AT allows you to switch on and off the lamp via the control panel or via your DMX controller without affecting the rest of the lighting. Note:It is also important to note, that the discharge lamp is cold restrike types, that means, that they have to be cold before re-striking. For this reason, you have to wait 5 minutes after having switched the lamp off before you can switch it on again. If you try to switch on the lamp within 5 minutes after having switched it off, the ColorSpot 700E AT will store this information and automatically ignite the lamp when the 5 minutes period has expired.

Updating software. --- Using this function you can update software in the xture via PC and serial link. The following are required in order to update software:
- PC running Windows 95/98/2000/XP or Linux
- DMX Software Uploader
- Flash cable RS 232Robe (No.13050624) Note1:Software update should execute a qualied person.If you lack qualication, do not attempt the update yourself and ask for help your ROBE distributor. Note 2:DMX address, IP address ,programs 1-3 and all functions in menu Personality will be set to their default values.
To update software in the xture:
1.Installation of DMX Software Uploader.
1.DMX Software Uploader program is available from the ROBE web site at WWW.robe.cz.
2.Make a new directory ( e.g. Robe_Uploader) on your hard disk and download the software to it.
3.Unpack the program from the archive.Program le has name:DSU_name of corresponding fixture_SoftwareID.If the Robe fixture is produced in magnetic and electronic ballast version, the name of DMX Software Uploader is the same for both versions. SoftwareID describes the versions of fixture software included in DMX Software Uploader. Higher number means later software versions.
2.Fixture software updating.
1.Determine which of your COM port is available on your PC and connect it with to the DMX input of the xture using the Flash cable. Do not extend this cable. Disconnect the xture from the other

When the update is nished, the line with the text “The xture is successfuly updated‘ will appear in this window and the xture will reset with the new software. Note: In the case of interruption of the upload process (e.g. power cut), the xture remains in the update mode and you have to repeat the software update again. For example: The xture was switched off before nishing software upload. After switching the xture on again, the xture is still in the update mode and the display is dark. Restart the Software Uploader program and repeat software update from your PC.
9. Power down mode
This mode omits xture reset after switching the xture on and lowers motor powers of the xture.”Power down mode” is useful in special cases e.g. if the xture is in a ight case and you want to set its DMX address without taking it out from the case.To enter “Power down mode”: Press and hold [ENTER] and at the same time switch on the Power switch.The following message appears: Realy Skip Initial Reset? Escape/Enter Press [ENTER] to activate “Power down mode” without xture reset.Now you can set features and behaviour of the xture by using “Fixture Address”menu and “Personality” menu.It is expected,that this mode will be exited by switching the xture off ,but if you want to go directly to “normal operation mode”,execute any xture reset. Note:All motors (except pan and tilt motors) in “Power down mode” are deactivated and switching the lamp on from the control panel is blocked.
10. RDM
This xture is ready for RDM operation.RDM (Remote Device Management) is a bi-directional communications protocol for use in DMX512 control systems, it is the new open standard for DMX512 device conguration and status monitoring. The RDM protocol allows data packets to be inserted into a DMX512 data stream without adversely affecting existing non-RDM equipment. By using a special „Start Code,“ and by complying with the timing specications for DMX512, the RDM protocol allows a console or dedicated RDM controller to send commands to and receive messages from specic moving lights. RDM allows explicit commands to be sent to a device and responses to be received from it. The list of commands for ColorSpot 700 AT is the following.

13. Maintenance and cleaning
It is absolutely essential that the xture is kept clean and that dust, dirt and smoke-uid residues must not build up on or within the xture. Otherwise, the xture‘s light-output will be signicantly reduced. Regular cleaning will not only ensure the maximum light-output, but will also allow the xture to function reliably throughout its life. A soft lint-free cloth moistened with any good glass cleaning uid is recommended, under no circumstances should alcohol or solvents be used!
DANGER !
Disconnect from the mains before starting any
maintenance work
The front objective lens will require weekly cleaning as smoke-uid tends to building up residues, reducing the light-output very quickly. The cooling-fans should be cleaned monthly. The interior of the xture should be cleaned at least annually using a vacuum-cleaner or an air-jet. Dichroic colour lters, CMY lamelas,gobo wheels and the internal lenses should be cleaned monthly. Remove dust and dirt from the fans and cooling vents using a soft brush and vacuum-cleaner.
Important! Check the air lters periodically and clean before they become
clogged!
Clean the air lters from the front fans with a vacuum cleaner, compressed air or you can wash them and put back dry.
Replacing the air lters in the xture head.
1)Disconect the xture from power.
2)Remove both top and bottom cover of the head (by loosening the 4 quarter-turn fasteners on each cover)
3)Remove the air lters (they are xed with Velcro fastener) from grids.
4)Clean or replace the air lters.
5)Place the lters on the grid and put head cover back.
6)Reset the elapsed time counter in menu Fixture information (Fixture Information--->Air Filters---> Elapsed Time.
Replacing the air lter in the xture base.
1)Disconect the xture from power.
2)Remove side fans cover by loosening the 4 quarter-turn fasteners.
3)Remove the air lter from the cover.
4)Clean or replace the air lter.
5)Place the lter on the cover and put this cover back
