3.2 Rigging the xture
The installation of the xture 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 xture 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 or damage to property. The xture has to be installed out of the reach of people.
If the xture shall be lowered from the ceiling or high joists, professional trussing systems have to be used. The xture must never be xed swinging freely in the room.
Caution: Fixture may cause severe injuries when crashing down! If you have doubts concerning the safety of a possible installation, do not install the moving head!
Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10 times the xture’s weight.
When installing the device, make sure there is no highly inammable material (decoration articles, etc.) in a distance of min. 0.4 m.
CAUTION!
Use an appropriate clamp 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 xture can be placed directly on the stage oor or rigged on a truss without altering its operation characte­ristics .
For securing the xture to the truss, install a safety wire which can hold at least 10 times the weight of the x­ture. Use only the safety wire with a snap hook with screw lock gate. Fasten the safety cable in the attachment point and around the truss as shown on the picture below.

3.4 DMX-512 connection
The xture is equipped with 5-pin XLR sockets for DMX input and output. Only use a shielded twisted-pair cable designed for RS-485 and 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 socket: XLR plug:
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. Up to 32 xtures can be interconnected.
Caution: At the last xture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 Ω resistor between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a 5-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last xture.

If the option "Incremental Update" is not checked, all processors will be updated (including processors with the same software version). If you wish to update only later versions of processors, check the “Incremental Update box“. Avoid interrupting the process. Update status is being displayed in the Info Box window. When the update is nished, the line with the text “The xture is successfully updated“ will appear in this window and the xture will reset with the new software. Note: In case upload process is interrupted (e.g. power loss), the xture stays in “Updating mode” and you will have to repeat the software update again.

6. RDM
This xture supports 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 a󰀨ecting 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 ROBIN LEDBeam 150 is the following.

9. Maintenance and cleaning
DANGER !
Disconnect from the mains before starting any
maintenance work
A soft lint-free cloth moistened with any good glass cleaning uid is recommended, under no circumstances should solvents be used!
Never use solvents for cleaning lenses in the moving head!
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.
Lenses may require monthly cleaning as smoke-uid tends to building up residues, reducing the light output very quickly. The cooling fans should be cleaned according to the situation (at least annually). The interior of the base should be cleaned at least annually using a vacuum-cleaner or an air-jet.
More complicated maintenance and service operations are only to be carried out by authorized distributors.

9.1 Replacing fuse
1.Replace the fuse by a fuse of the same type and rating only.
Before replacing the fuse, unplug mains lead!
2. Remove the plastic covers of the base (3) by unscrewing 5 fastening screws (1) and (2) on each cover.
3. Unscrew four screws (4) on the top chassis (5). Lay down the xture and unscrew four screws (6) on the bottom plate (9) to push out inside module of the base.
4. Unscrew two screws (8) on the bottom plate to remove rear panel of the xture (7).
5. Now you have access for the fuse holder (10) in the inside module of the base.
6. Remove the old fuse from the fuseholder.
7. Install the new fuse into the fuseholder.
8. Assemble the base of the xture.
