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 conected.

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 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 ArtNet communication protocol.The control soft­ware running on your PC (or light 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 xrure 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

If the xture is connected with active Ethernet socket (e.g. switch) the network icon will appear at the
bottom right corner of the screen:

Option “ Artnet" (gMaI or gMA2 or sACN) has to be selected from “Ethernet Mode” menu at rst xture.
Option “Ethernet To DMX” has to be selected from the “Ethernet Mode” menu at the rst xture (connected to
the Ethernet) in the xture chain, next xtures have standard DMX setting.
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 Ω resistor
between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a XLR-plug and connect it in the DMX-output of the last xture.

Example:

DMX address=1 DMX address=48 DMX address=144
IP addres=002.168.002.002

4.8 Wireless DMX operation

The wireless version of the xture is equipped with the Lumen Radio CRMX module and antenna for receiving

DMX signal. CRMX module operates on the 2.4 GHz band.

The item " Wireless " from the menu "DMX Input" allows you to activate receiving of wireless DMX (Person­ality--> DMX Input -->Wireless.). First two options from the "DMX Input" menu are stated in DMX chart as well
(channel Power/Special functions , range of 10-19 DMX). If DMX input option is changed by DMX command,
the change is permanently written into xture´s memory.

DMX range of 10-19 switching xture to the wired/wireless operation is active only during rst 10 sec­onds after switching the xture on.

After switching the xture on, the xture checks both modes of receiving DMX in the following order:

1. For the rst ve seconds, the xture receives DMX signal from the wired input. If the Power/Special functions
channel is set at some DMX input option, the xture will receive DMX value according to this option. If DMX input
option is set to the wired input , this option is saved and checking procedure is nished. If DMX input option is
not set, the xture continues next 5 seconds in scanning wireless DMX signal-see point 2.

2. For the next 5 seconds the xture receives wireless DMX signal and again detects if the Power/Special
functions channel is set at some DMX input option, if not, the xture will take option which is set in the xture

menu "DMX Input".

To link the xture with DMX transmitter.
The xture can be only linked with the transmitter by running the link procedure at DMX transmitter .

After linking , the level of DMX signal ( 0-100 %) is displayed in the menu item “Wireless State“ (Information

-->Wireless State).

To unlink the xture from DMX transmitter.
The xture can be unlinked from receiver via the menu item “ Unlink Wireless Adapter“ (Information--> Wireless

State --> Unlink Wireless Adapter).

5. Remotely controllable functions

5.1 Colour inuencing functions

Factory setting of menu functions (channels) which inuence behaviour of colour channels is the following:

Function Factory setting Function Factory setting

DMX mode 1 Uniformity O󰀨

Colour calibration mode On Colour mix control 0 DMX

Colour mixing mode CMY CTC 110 DMX (5600K)

Dimmer curve Square law CRI Selection Standard (80)

Tungsten e󰀨ect simulation O󰀨 Green correction Uncorrected

Chromatic white O󰀨 Shutter/Strobe Open (32 DMX)

Light output stability O󰀨 Dimmer Closed (0 DMX)

Colour calibration mode (menu tab "Personality")

The function switches on/o󰀨 an internal control of colours. For a standard operation of the xture the option
should be switched on. Option o󰀨 has to be set during colour calibration of the xture (in this mode some
functions e.g. Tungsten e󰀨ect, Virtual colour wheel are disabled).

Colour mixing system (menu tab "Personality", DMX channel "Colour functions")

This item allows selection between RGB and CMY mode. In both 3-colour controlling modes (Mode 1,Mode 2)
all internal 5 colours are always utilized where possible.

Dimmer curve (menu tab "Personality", DMX channel "Colour functions")

The xture allows you to select a linear dimmer curve or a square law curve.

Tungsten e󰀨ect simulation (menu tab "Personality", DMX channel "Colour functions")

The function simulates behaviour of a halogen lamp during dimming at calibrated white colours 2700K - 4200K.
You can select from various lamp wattage simulation: 750W, 1000W, 1200W, 2000W, 2500W.

If the function Chromatic white is on, the Tungsten e󰀨ect will inuence also mixed colours.

Saving user colours (DMX channel "Colour functions")

To save user colours:

1.Set the function White Point to o󰀨 (Channel Colour Mix Control, range 70-79 DMX).

1.Mix desired colour on colour channels.

2.Stay in desired position of user colours (216-235 DMX) on the Virtual colour wheel for 1 sec.

3.Leave the range of user colours (216-235 DMX) on the Virtual colour wheel.

4. Repeat steps 2-4 for next user colour.

5.To permanently save user colours, stay for 3 sec. at DMX range of 110-114 on the channel Colour functions.
After that the colour system will be reset (this action can last about 2 minutes). Previous user colours will be
overwritten.

Chromatic white (menu tab "Personality", DMX channel "Colour functions")

If the function is on, the CTC channel inuences calibrated white colours and mixed colours (also colours on

Virtual colour wheel).

If the function is o󰀨, the CTC channel inuences calibrated whites only.

Light output stability (menu tab "Personality", DMX channel "Colour functions")

If the function is on, the light output from the xture is immediately reduced to a value corresponding to a thermal

drop of the light intensity from the LED engine (the thermal drop of light intensity - decreasing of the light intensity

on circa 90 % of starting level after rst 5 minutes, then is the thermal drop of light intensity inconsiderable).

Output uniformity (menu tab "Personality", DMX channel "Colour functions")

If the function is on, the light intensity from the xture is corrected in order to get approximately the same light
intensity as from another xture which has also the function on. Light outputs from more xtures will have
approximately the same light intensity. Thanks to the function, light outputs from more xtures will have ap­proximately the same light intensity.

7. Control menu

The xture is equipped with the QVGA Robe touch screen with battery backup which
allows you to set the xture´s behaviour according to your needs, obtain information on its operation, control
all range of e󰀨ects and program it in stand-alone mode.

The xture´s menu can be controlled either by the control buttons or directly by touching the icon.

Control buttons on the front panel:

[ESCAPE] button used to leave the menu without saving changes.

[NEXT] , [PREV] buttons for moving between menu items and symbols, adjusting values.
[ENTER/Display On] button used to enter the selected menu (menu item) and to conrm adjusted value.
If the xture is disconnected from mains, the button switches the touch screen on.

Icons used in the touch screen menu:

- [back arrow] used to move back to the previous screen (menu).

- [up arrow] used to move up on the previous page.

- [down arrow] used to move down on the next page.

- [conrm] used to save adjusted values, to leave menu or to perform desired action.

- [cancel] used to leave menu item without saving changes.

- [conrm+copy] used to save adjusted values and copy them to the next prog. step.

- [warning icon] used to indicate some error which has occurred in the xture.

- [Ethernet] used to indicate Ethernet connected.

- [menu rotation] used to rotate menu 180 degrees from current orientation.

- [slider control] used to recall slider system for setting desired value.

- [keyboard control] used to recall keyboard system for setting desired value.

- [air lters cleaning] used to signal that cleaning period of the air lters elapsed.

The menu page displays icons for each function that you can perform from the touch screen.

After switching the xture on, the touch screen shows the screen with the ROBE logo:

23

Touch any part of the screen or press the [ENTER/Display On] button to display the initial screen with the cur­rent stored DMX address:

Note: The green icon at the top right corner of the screen indicates the level of the display battery charging. If

the whole icon is green, the battery is fully charged while the red icon indicates exhausted battery. The battery
charges during xture operation, its charging lasts cca 6 hours.
We recommend that the xture should be in operation at least 7 hours per week to keep the battery fully charged.
If you switch the xture on and this screen will not appear till 1 minute, switch the xture o󰀨 and on again. If the
screen lights, the battery is exhausted. In case the screen still does not light, the battery is faulty.

This is also indicated by an error message "Faulty battery" and if such an error message appears the battery
should be replaced immediately. The lifetime of the battery is highly dependent on ambient temperature (and

consequently on base temperature). If the maximum ambient temperatures (as recorded and displayed in menu:
Information -> Fixture Temperatures -> Ambient Temperature -> Maximum NonRes.) are kept within the spec­ied limits, the battery should last for at least two years. Shell the ambient temperatures exceed the specied
maximum temperature, the lifetime of the batteries could be considerably shortened even up to just one year
or less and also result in physical damage (battery leakage) or unreliable xture functions.
Damage caused by batteries failed due to exceeded maximum ambient temperature cannot be claimed under

warranty terms.

Touch the green arrow at the bottom right corner of the screen or press the [ENTER/Display On] button to enter
the " Address" menu.

Each item (such as a Tab, menu item, text box, icon) may be selected from a screen by simply touching the

8. 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 T1 Fresnel/T1 PC is the following.

11. 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.

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 placed in the xture base. Use a vacuum cleaner, compressed air or you can wash them

and put back dry.

After replacing the air lters, reset the elapsed time counter in the menu "Information"

(Information--->Air Filters---> Elapsed Time).

Replacing the fuse.

Before replacing the fuse, unplug mains lead.

1. Remove the fuse holder on the rear panel of the base with a tting screwdriver from the housing

(anti-clockwise).

2. Remove the old fuse from the fuse holder.

3. Install the new fuse in the fuse holder (only the same type and rating).

4. Replace the fuseholder in the housing and x it.

Checking plastic parts of the xture.

The plastic parts of the xture should be checked for damages and beginning cracks at least every two months.

In addition, the plastic part of the front lens has to be checked mechanically (by means of movement by the

plastic part) if it is rmly fastened to the xture. If hint of a crack is found on some plastic part, do not use the
xture until the damaged part will be replaced.
Cracks or another damages of the plastic parts can be caused by the xture transportation or manipulation and
also ageing process may inuence plastic materials.

This checking is necessary for both xed installations and preparing xtures for renting. Any free moving parts
inside of the xture head, cracked plastic or any plastic part of front lens not sitting properly in place need to

be immediately replaced.

Example of a crack on the plastic cover (for illustrative purpose).
