4.4 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 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 xture. 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: Fixtures 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.
Danger of re !
When installing the device, make sure there is no highly inammable
material (decoration articles, etc.) in a distance of min. 0.5 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 xture can be placed directly on the stage oor or rigged in any orientation on a truss without altering its
operation characteristics .
For securing a xture to the truss, install a safety wire that can hold at least 10 times the weight of the xture. Use only the safety wire with screw-on carabine. Pull the safety wire through the safety attachment point on the bottom of the base and around the truss as shown on the pictures below.
Page 10

Truss installation
1.Bolt each clamp (1) to the omega holder (3) with M12 bolt and lock nut through the hole in the holder.
2.Fasten the omega holders on the bottom of the base by inserting both quick-lock fasteners (4) into the holes of the base and tighten fully clockwise.
3. Pull the safety wire (2) through the attachment point and around the truss (6).
Alternativelly, xtures handels can be used for safety attachment
When installing xtures side-by-side,
avoid illuminating one xture with another!
DANGER TO LIFE!
Before taking into operation for the rst time,the installation has to be approved by an
expert!

4.5 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 Ω resistor between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last xture.

4.6 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 Robin Viva 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:
Direct Ethernet operation
Connect the Ethernet inputs of all xtures with the Ethernet network. Option “Artnet (gMaI or gMA2)" has to be selected from “Ethernet Mode” menu on the xture. Set IP address (002.xxx.xxx.xxx / 010.xxx.xxx.xxx) and the Universe.
(DMX address=129) (DMX address=31) (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
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.

Touch any part of the screen or press the [ENTER/Display On] button to display the initial screen with the cur­rent stored DMX address:
Touch the green arrow at the bottom right corner of the screen or press the [ENTER/Display On] button to enter the " Address" menu. An item (such as a Tab, menu item, text box, icon) may be selected from a screen by simply touching the item in the list or by pressing the [NEXT] or [PREV] buttons to scroll through list items. With each press, the next item is highlighted. Press [ENTER/Display On] to select the highlighted item.
Before rst xture operation, set current date and time in the menu "Date &Time
Setings" (menu path: Personality--> Date &Time Setings).
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 off 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.

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 the case of an interruption of the upload process (e.g. power cut), the xture keeps the updating mode and you have to repeat the software update again.
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 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 Robin Viva is the following.

12. 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, 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 bases. 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.
