fixture at the transport handles. When choosing the installation-spot, please make sure that the device is not e xposed to extreme heat, moisture

or dust.There should not be any cables lying around. You endanger your own and the safety of others! The minimum distance between light-output and the illuminated surface must be more than 1 meter. Make sure that the area below the installation place is bloc ked when rigging, derigging or servicing the fixture. Always fix the fixture with an appropriate safety-rope . Fix the safety-rope at the correct eye bolt only. Only operate the fixture after having checked that the housing is firmly closed and all screws are tightly fast ened. The lamp must never be ignited if the objective-lens or any housing-cover is open, as discharge lamps may

explose and emit a high ultraviolet radiation, which ma y cause b urns. The maximum ambient temperature

= 40° C must never be e xceeded. Otherwise, the lamp is switched off and

the fixture is out of operation for 5 minutes. Allow the fixture to cool for at least 15 minutes bef ore replacing the lamp .

4.5 Connection to the mains

Connect the fixture to the mains with the enclosed power-plug. The earth has to be connected!

The occupation of the connection-cables is as follows:

Cable Pin International

Brown Live L Blue Neutral N Yellow/Green Earth

4.6 DMX-512 connection/connection between fixtures

The wires must not come into contact with each other, otherwise

the fixtures will not work at all, or will not work properly.

Only use a stereo shielded cable and 3-pin XLR-plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller with the fixture or one fixture with another.

Occupation of the XLR-connection:

DMX - output DMX-input

XLR mounting-socket: XLR mounting-plug:

If you are using the standard controllers, you can connect the DMX-output of the controller directly with the DMX-input of the first fixture 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 first fixture in the DMX-chain with the DMX-input of the next fixture. Always connect one output with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are connected.

Caution: At the last fixture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 Ohm resistor between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last fixture.

6. Addressing

The control board on the front panel of the ServoSpot 575 allows you to assign the DMX fixture address, which is defined as the first channel from which the ServoSpot 575 will respond to the controller. If you set, for ex ample, the address to channel 5, the ServoSpot 575 will use the channel 5 to 20 f or control. Please, be sure that you don’t hav e any o verlapping channels in order to control each ServoSpot 575 correctly and independently from any other fixture on the DMX data link. If two, three or more ServoSpot 575 are addressed similarly, they will work similarly.

For address setting follow this procedure:

1) Switch On the ServoSpot 575 and wait until the fixture reset has finished ("rSt" is flashing at the display).

2) Press the [Mode] key in order to access the main menu. Browse through the menu by pressing the [Up] and [Down] keys until the displa y shows "A001". Confirm by pressing [Enter] ke y and the letter "A" will flash.

3) Use the [Up] and [Down] keys to select the desired address .

4) Confirm by pressing [Enter] or [Mode] to cancel.

Controlling:

After having addressed all ServoSpot 575 , you may n ow start operating these via your lighting controller. Note: After switching on, the ServoSpot 575 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 flash "A001" with actually set address. This situation can occur if:

- the 3 PIN XLR plug (cable with DMX signal from controller) is not connected with the input of the device

- the controller is switched off or defective, if the cable or connector is defective or the signal wires are swap in the input connector .

Note: It’s necessary to insert the XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) in the last lighting in the link in order to

ensure proper transmission on the DMX data link.

7. Remotely controllable functions

7.1 Lamp

The ServoSpot 575 is run with a PHILIPS MSD 575,MSR 575/2 or OSRAM HSR 575/2 lamp. A relay inside of the ServoSpot 575 allows you to s witch On and Off the lamp via itself control board on the front panel of base or via your controller without affecting the rest of the lighting.

7.2 Switching On and Off the lamp by the control board

1. Switch On the ServoSpot 575 and wait until the fixture reset has finished.

2. Press the [Mode] key in order to access the main menu. Browse through the men u by pressing the [Up] and [Down] keys until the displa y shows "LAMP". Confirm by pressing [Enter] key.

3. Use the [Up] and [Down] k eys to select "On" for switch On the lamp and "Off" for switch Off the lamp and press [Enter] to confirm or [Mode] to cancel.

Note: It is also important to note, that the discharge lamp is cold restrike types, that means, that they ha ve to be

cold before re-striking. For this reason, you have to wait 5 minutes (max. speed of fan must be adjusted) after having switched Off the lamp before you can switch it back On again. If you try to switch On the lamp within 5 minutes after having switched it Off, the ServoSpot 575 will store this information and automatically ignite the lamp when the 5 minutes period has expired. The message "HEAt" will appear on the control board display of the ServoSpot 575. If the ignition of the lamp is se ven times unsuccessful, on the display will appear "LA.Er", meaning that the lamp could be damaged or even missed, or there could be a f ailure on the ignitor or ballast.

7.3 Colour wheels

The ServoSpot 575 contains two colour wheels both with 10 color positions - 9 of these with dichroic colors and the last one white. The wheel 1 can be positioned between two adjacent colors in any position. It is also possible to rotate the color wheel 1 continuously at different speeds("Rainbow effect“ in both directions). Hot and cold colour temperature filters (3200K and 5600K) and UV filtr are situated on the colour wheel 2. By color macro function it is possible to obtain 64 different colours in f ollo wing order: white , pink, magenta, red, orange, yell ow, green, cyan, b lue, UV

7.4 Static gobo wheel

The wheel has 9 metal gobos plus an open position.Adjustable gobo wheel rotation from slow to fast,gobo-shake function.

Page 15

7.5 Rotating gobo wheel

The rotating gobo wheel includes 3 metal gobos, 1 glass gobo and 2 dichroic gobos rotating in both directions, indexable, rotating gobo wheel contin uousli rotation from slow to f ast. The rotating gobos can be interchanged.

7.6 3-facet rotating prism

The 3-facet prism rotating in both directions at different speeds,16 prism-gobo macros

7.7 Iris

Motorized adjustable iris,variable pulse eff ects.

7.8 Focus-multistep zoom

Motorized focus enables the beam to be focused an ywhere on stage at different beam angles: 15°,18°,22°,pro vided by the special multistep zoom.

7.9 Dimmer/Shutter/Strobe

Smooth 0 - 100 % dimming is provided by the combined mechanical dimmer/shutter unit. This unit may also be used for strobe effect (1 - 10 flashes per second)

7.10 Fan

The ServoSpot 575 is cooled by three axial fans - two in the projector head and one in the base. The speed of the fan (and of course the noise) can be continuously reduced if very quiet performance is required. By the Control Board using the "F AnS" function you can choose 5 types of lo w fan speed operating:

1. "HIGH" - high (max.) speed of fans

The cooling fans w ork on max. speed (max. cooling)

2. "rEG" - continuous controlling of the fan speed

the fan automatically raises its speed in order to control inside temperature of the lighting, if the temperature inside increases about certain level (the low fan speed reduces the cooling of the lighting). This cycle can repeat several times until the temper ature inside is on suitab le le v el.

3. "LoOF" - low speed/Switch Off the lamp operating

the fan keeps the adjusted low speed until the temperature exceeds max. inside temp. Then the ServoSpot 575 automatically switch Off the lamp.

4. "LoHI" - low/high speed of the fan operating

the fan keeps the adjusted low speed until the temperature exceeds max. inside temp. of the fixture, then the ServoSpot 575 automatically switch from low to high the fan speed.

5."Auto" - continuous controlling of the fan speed without the DMX value.

This mode is similar to "reG", but the initial level of the fan speed can´t be adjusted by the DMX.

8. Control Board

The control board situated on the front panel of the ServoSpot 575 offers several f eatures. You can simply set the lighting address, read the number of lamp or unit hours, switch On and Off the lamp , run test show , make a reset and also use special functions for manual, demo and service purposes.

11. Maintenance and cleaning

It is absolutely essential that the fixture is kept clean and that dust, dirt and smoke-fluid residues must not build up on or within the fixture. Otherwise, the fixture‘s light-output will be significantly reduced. Regular cleaning will not only ensure the maximum light-output, but will also allow the fixture to function reliably throughout its life. A soft lint-free cloth moistened with any good glass cleaning fluid is recommended, under no circumstances should alcohol or solvents be used!

DANGER !

Disconnect from the mains before starting any

maintenance work

The objective lens will require weekly cleaning as smoke-fluid tends to building up residues, reducing the lightoutput very quickly . The cooling-fans should be cleaned monthly. The gobos may be cleaned with a soft brush. The interior of the fixture should be cleaned at least annually u sing a vacuum-cleaner or an air-jet. The dichroic colour-filters, the gobo-wheel and the internal lenses should be cleaned monthly. T o ensure a proper function of the gobo-wheel, we recommend lubrication in six month intervals. The quantity of oil must not be excessive in order to avoid that oil runs out when the gobo-wheel rotates.

Replacing the fuse

If the lamp burns out, the fine-wire fuse of the device might fuse, too . Only replace the fuse b y a fuse of same type and rating. Before replacing the fuse, unplug mains lead.

Procedure:

1) Unscrew the fuseholder on the rear panel with a fitting screwdriver from the housing (anti-clockwise).

2) Remove the old fuse from the fuseholder .

3) Install the new fuse in the fuseholder .

4) Replace the fuseholder in the housing and fix it.
