1. Safety instructions
DANGEROUS VOLTAGE CONSTITUTING A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK IS PRESENT WITHIN THIS UNIT!
Make sure that the available voltage is not higher than stated on the rear panel of the xture. This xture should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied, consult your authorized distributor or local power company.
Always disconnect the xture from AC power before cleaning, removing or installing the fuses, or any part.
The power plug has to be accessible after installing the xture. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this canresult in re or electric shock.
Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate this xture where the cord may be damaged by persons walking on it.
Make sure that the power cord is never crimped or damaged by sharp edges. Check the xture and the power cord from time to time.
Refer servicing to qualied service personnel.
This xture falls under protection class I. Therefore this xture has to be connected to
a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.
Do not connect this xture to a dimmer pack.
LED light emission. Risk of eye injury. Do not look into the beam at a distance of less
than 2 meters from the front surface of the product. Do not view the light output with
optical instruments or any device that may conncentrate the beam
If the xture has been exposed to drastic temperature uctuation (e.g. after transportation), do not switch it on immediately. The arising condensation water might damage your device. Leave the device switched off until it has reached room temperature.
Do not shake the xture. Avoid brute force when installing or operating the xture.
This xture was designed for indoor use only, do not expose this unit to rain or use near water.
When choosing the installation spot, please make sure that the xture is not exposed to extreme heat, moisture
4
or dust.
Air vents and slots in the xture´s head and base are provided for ventilation, to ensure reliable operation of the device and to protect it from overheating.
Do not block the light output with any object when the xture is under operation.
The openings should never be covered with cloth or other materials, and never must be blocked.
This xture should not be placed in a built-in installation unless proper ventilation is provided.
Only operate the xture after having checked that the housing is rmly closed and all screws are tightly faste-
ned.
Always use a secondary safety cable when mounting this xture.
Do not block the front objective with any object when the xture is under operation.
The xture becomes very hot during operation. Allow the xture to cool approximately 20 minutes prior to manipulate with it.
Operate the xture only after having familiarized with its functions. Do not permit operation by persons not qualied for operating the xture. Most damages are the result of unprofessional operation!
Please use the original packaging if the xture is to be transported.
Please consider that unauthorized modications on the xture are forbidden due to safety reasons!
If this device will be operated in any way different to the one described in this manual, the product may suffer damages and the guarantee becomes void. Furthermore, any other operation may lead to dangers like short­circuit, burns, electric shock, crash etc.

3. Installation
Fixtures must be installed by a qualied electrician in accordance with all
national and local electrical and construction codes and regulation.
3.1 Connection to the mains
For protection from electric shock, the xture must be earthed!
The Robin MiniMe is equipped with auto-switching power supply that automatically adjusts to any 50-60Hz AC power source from 100-240 Volts.
Install a suitable plug on the power cord, note that the cores in the power cord are coloured according to the following table. The earth has to be connected! If you have any doubts about proper installation, consult a qualied electrician.
Core (EU) Core (US) Connection Plug Terminal Marking
Brown Black Live L
Light blue White Neutral N
Yellow/Green Green Earth
This device falls under class one and must be earthed (grounded)!
Design of the Robin MiniMe allows to connect several xtures to AC mains power in one interconnected daisy chain using power input and throughput connectors. Needed daisy chain cords are stated in the chapter “Technical specications “
The max. number of connected xtures depends on the AC mains power voltage: 23 xtures at power supply= 230V 19 xtures at power supply= 208V 11 xtures at power supply= 120V
Do not overload the supply line and the connecting leads.
Wiring and connection work must be carried out by qualied staff!

3.2 Rigging the xture
A structure intended for installation of the xture (s) must safely hold weight of the xture(s) placed on it. The structure has to be certicated to the purpose.
The xture (xtures) must be installed in accordance with national and local electrical and construction codes and regulation.
For overhead installation, the xture must be always secured with a safety wire
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 a skilled person once a year.
Allow the xture to cool for ten minutes before handling.
The projector should be installed outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated.
IMPORTANT! OVERHEAD RIGGING REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE, including 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 use a help of professional companies.
CAUTION: Fixtures may cause severe injuries when crashing down! If you have doubts concerning the safety of a possible installation, do not install the xture!
The xture has to be installed out of the reach of public.
The xture must never be xed swinging freely in the room.
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 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 a xture to the truss install a safety wire that can hold at least 10 times the weight of the xture. Use only safety wire with screw-on carabine. Fasten the safety cable in the attachment point and around
the truss as shown on the picture.
