LED Expected Lifespan
LEDs gradually decline in brightness over time. HEAT is the dominant factor that leads to the acceleration of this decline. Packaged in clusters, LEDs exhibit higher operating temperatures than in ideal or singular optimum conditions. For this reason when all color LEDs are used at their fullest intensity, life of the LEDs is significantly reduced. It is estimated that a viable lifespan of 40,000 to 50,000 hours will be achieved under normal operational conditions. If improving on this lifespan expectancy is of a higher priority, place care in providing for lower operational temperatures. This may include climatic-environmental and the reduction of overall projection intensity.

Fixture Linking
You will need a serial data link to run light shows of one or more fixtures using a DMX-512 controller or to run synchronized shows on two or more fixtures set to a master/slave operating mode. The combined number of channels required by all the fixtures on a serial data link determines the number of fixtures the data link can support.
Important: Fixtures on a serial data link must be daisy chained in one single line. To comply with the
EIA-485 standard no more than 30 devices should be connected on one data link. Connecting more than 30 fixtures on one serial data link without the use of a DMX optically isolated splitter may result in deterioration of the digital DMX signal.
Maximum recommended DMX data link distance: 100 meters Maximum recommended number of TWIST-75LEDs on a DMX data link: 30 fixtures
The TWIST-75LED Spot can be operated with a controller in control mode or without the controller in
stand-alone mode.

Control Mode
The fixtures are individually addressed on a data-link and connected to the controller. The fixtures respond to the DMX signal from the controller. (When you select the DMX address and save it, the controller will display the saved DMX address the next time.)
DMX Addressing
The control panel on the front side of the base allows you to assign the DMX fixture address, which i s the first channel from which the TWIST-75LED will respond to the controller. Please note when you use the controller, the unit has 14 channels. When using multiple TWIST-75LEDs, make sure you set the DMX addresses right. Therefore, the DMX address of the first TWIST-75LED should be 1(001); the DMX address of the second TWIST-75LED should be 1+14=15 (015); the DMX address of the third TWIST-75LED should be 15+14=29 (029), etc. Please, be sure that you don’t have any overlapping channels in order to control each TWIST-75LED
correctly. If two or more TWIST-75LEDs are addressed similarly, they will work similarly. For address settings, please refer to the instructions under ”Addressing’.
Controlling:
After having addressed all TWIST-75LED fixtures, you may now start operating these via your lighting controller. Note: After switching on, the TWIST-75LED will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or not. If there is no data received at the DMX-input, the “LED “ on the control panel will not flash. The problem may be:
• The XLR cable from the controller is not connected with the input of the TWIST-75LED.
• The controller is switched off or defective, the cable or connector is detective, or the signal wires are swapped in the input connector.
Note: It’s necessary to insert a XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) in the last fixture in order to ensure proper transmission on the DMX data link.

Maintenance
The IMG Stage Line TWIST-75LED Spot requires almost no maintenance. However, you should keep the unit
clean. Otherwise, the fixture’s light-output will be significantly reduced. Disconnect the mains power
supply and then wipe the cover with a damp cloth. Wipe the front glass panel clean with glass cleaner
and a soft cloth. Do not use alcohol or solvents. The front glass panel will require weekly cleaning, as smoke-fluid tends to build up residues, reducing the light-output very quickly. Do not immerse in liquid. The cooling-fans, colour-wheel, the gobowheel, the gobos and the internal lenses should be cleaned monthly with a soft brush.
Please clean internal components once a year with a light brush and vacuum cleaner. Keep connections clean. Disconnect electric power, and then wipe the DMX and audio connections with a damp cloth. Make sure connections are thoroughly dry before linking equipment or supplying electric power.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are to be inspected by an expert after every year in the course of an acceptance test. The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are to be inspected by a skilled person once a year.
The following points have to be considered during the inspection:
1. All screws used for installing the device or parts of the device have to be tightly connected and must not be corroded.
2. There may not be any deformations on housings, fixations and installation spots.
3. Mechanically moving parts like axles, eyes and others may not show any traces of wearing.
4. The electric power supply cables must not show any damages or material fatigue.
Replacing a Fuse
Power surges, short-circuit or inappropriate electrical power supply may cause a fuse to burn out. If the fuse burns out, the product will not function whatsoever. If this happens, follow the directions below to do
so.
1. Unplug the unit from electric power source.
2. Insert a screwdriver into the slot in the fuse cover. Gently pry up the fuse cover. The fuse will come out.
3. Remove the used fuse. If brown or unclear, it is burned out.
4. Insert the replacement fuse into the holder where the old fuse was. Reinsert the fuse cover. Be sure to
use a fuse of the same type and specification. See the product specification label for details
Replacing a Gobo from the rotating Gobowheel
1. Disconnect mains power supply and set the switch to OFF.
2. Make sure that the gobo you want to insert has the same size. For the right size, see below.

3. Loosen the service lid of the housing, by sliding it to the left/right.
4. Gently tilt the head so the small metal housing will slide out more easy.
5. Turn the gobo wheel, with the gobo you want to remove, to the upside.
6. Gently lift up the gobo holder 10º and then gently pull out the gobo from its position.
Fig. 9
7. Very carefully take the gobo out of the gobo holder with a pair of pliers.
8. Place the new gobo in the gobo holder. Carefully put the pinchcock back, gently press the
pinchcock a little bit together. Possibly use a pair of pliers to press the pinchcock a little bit together.
9. Put the gobo holder back under the pressing snap and push it back.
10.Replace the maintenance caps and fasten all screws.
Glass Gobo Orientation
Coated glass gobos are inserted with the coating against the rim of the holder (away from the spring). Textured gobos are inserted with the smooth side against the spring. This provides the best results when combining rotating gobos.
When an object is held up to the coated side When an object is held up to the uncoated there is no space between the object and its side there is a space between the object and reflection. The back edge of the gobo cannot its reflection. The back edge of the gobo can be seen when looking through the coated be seen when looking through the uncoated side. side.

Troubleshooting
No Light
This troubleshooting guide is meant to help solve simple problems. If a problem occurs, carry out the steps below in sequence until a solution is found. Once the unit operates properly, do not carry out following steps. If the light effect does not operate properly, refer servicing to a technician. Response: Suspect four potential problem areas as: factory reset, the power supply, the LED, the fuse.
1. First try to reset the device to its original factory default settings (Load Menu see page 16).
2. Power supply. Check that the unit is plugged into an appropriate power supply.
3. The LEDs. Return the TWIST-75LED to your IMG Sage Line dealer.
4. The fuse. Replace the fuse. See page 21 for replacing the fuse.
5. If all of the above appears to be O.K., plug the unit in again.
6. If you are unable to determine the cause of the problem, do not open the TWIST-75LED, as this may
damage the unit and the warranty will become void.
7. Return the device to your IMG Stage Line dealer.
No Response to DMX
Response: Suspect the DMX cable or connectors, a controller malfunction, a light effect DMX card malfunction.
1. Check the DMX setting. Make sure that DMX addresses are correct.
2. Check the DMX cable: Unplug the unit; change the DMX cable; then reconnect to electrical power.
Try your DMX control again.
3. Determine whether the controller or light effect is at fault. Does the controller operate properly with other DMX products ? If not, take the controller in for repair. If so, take the DMX cable and the light effect to a qualified technician.
See next page for more problem solving.

Problem Probable cause(s) Remedy
One or more fixtures are completely
dead.
No power to the fixture • Check that power is switched on
and cables are plugged in.
Primary fuse blown. • Replace fuse.
Fixtures reset correctly, but all respond erratically or not at
all to the
controller.
The controller is not connected. • Connect controller. 3-pin XLR Out of the controller does not match XLR Out of the first fixture on the link (i.e. signal is reversed).
• Ins
tall a phase reversing cable between the controller and the first fixture on the link.
Fixtures reset correctly
, but some respond erratically or not at all to the controller.
Poor data quality
• Check data quality. If much lower than 100 percent, the pr
oblem may be a bad data link connection, poor quality or broken cables, missing termination plu
g, or a defective
fixture disturbing the link.
Bad data link connection
• Inspect connections and cables. Correct poor connections. Repair or replace damaged cables.
