very high temperature.

During the installation of halogen lamps do not touch the glass bulbs bare handed. Always use a

cloth to handle the lamps during insertion and removal.

Do not install lamps with a higher wattage. They generate higher temperatures than which the

device was designed for.

For the installation, you need one PHILIPS MSD250/2

Procedure:

Lamp Replacement: Never change the lamp while be fixture is plugged in.

1) Unscrew the 2 screws (A, B) on the bottom of the housing, holding the plate where the lamp is

underneath. Carefully remove the metal plate.

2) Carefully insert the lamp into the socket. Please remember there is only one way to insert the

lamp. Gently slide the lamp and its lamp holder back into place.

3) On the access plate there are 3 screws marked 1, 2 and 3.which are used to adjust the lamp holder

in the lamp housing. You can adjust the 3 screws to fine-turn the position of the lamp to get the
maximum light output as shown below.

Fuse Replacement: Locate and remove the unit’s power cord. Once the cord has been removed
located the fuse holder located inside the power socket. Insert a flat-head screw driver into the power
socket and gently pry out the fuse holder. Remove the bad fuse and replace with a new one. The fuse
holder has a built-in socket for a spare fuse be sure not to confuse the space with active fuse.

B) Mounting the device

XM037-V1.3-A

８

Please consider the EN 60598-2-17 and the other respective national norms during the

installation. The installation must only be carried out by a qualified person.

The installation of the effect 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

safety cable.

Never stand directly below the device when mounting, removing or servicing the fixture.

The operator has to make sure the safety relating and machine technical installations are

approved with an expert before taking the device into operation for the first time.

These installations have to be approved by a skilled person once a year.

Before taking into operation for the first time,

the installation has to be approved by an expert.

Cautions:

The effect should be installed outside areas where persons may reach it, walk by or be seated.

When installing the device, make sure there is no highly

inflammable material within a distance of min. 0,5m

Overhead mounting requires extensive experience, including amongst others calculating working
load limits, installation material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all installation material
and the device. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself. Improper
installation can result in bodily injury.

The electric connection must only be carried out by a qualified electrician.

Before mounting make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10 times

the device’s weight.

Connect the fixture to the mains with the power plug.

XM037-V1.3-A

Installation method via clamp

Please refer to the picture below:

Screw one clamp each via a M10 screw and nut directly into the bracket of the unit. Pull the
safety-chain through the eyelet on the rear of the unit and over the trussing system or a safe
fixation spot.

DMX-512 control connection

Connect the provided XLR cable to the female 3-pin XLR output of your controller and the other
side to the male 3-pin XLR input of the scanner spot. You can chain multiple scanner spot together
through serial linking. The cable needed should be two core, screened cable with XLR input and
output connectors. Please refer to the diagram below.

XM037-V1.3-A

１０

DMX-512 connection with DMX terminator

For installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance or is in an electrically noisy
environment, such as in a discotheque, it is recommended to use a DMX terminator. This helps in
preventing corruption of the digital control signal by electrical noise. The DMX terminator is simply
an XLR plug with a 120Ohm resistor connected between pins 2 and 3,which is then plugged into the
output XLR socket of the last fixture in the chain. Please see illustrations below.

Address 1 address 4 address 7

Projector DMX starting address selection

All fixtures should be given a DMX starting address when using a DMX signal, so that the

correct fixture responds to the correct control signals. This digital starting address is the channel
number from which the fixture starts to “listen” to the digital control information sent out from
the DMX controller. The allocation of this starting address is achieved by setting the correct
number on the display located on the base of the device.

You can set the same starting address for all fixtures or a group of fixtures, or make different

address for each fixture individually.

If you set the same address, all the units will start to “listen” to the same control signal from the

same channel number. In other words, changing the settings of one channel will affect all the

XM037-V1.3-A

１１

fixtures simultaneously.

If you set a different address, each unit will start to “listen” to the channel number you have set,

based on the quantity of control channels of the unit. That means changing the settings of one
channel will affect only the selected fixture.

In the case of the MC-3, which is a 3 channel fixture, you should set the starting address of the

first unit to 1, the second unit to 4 (3 + 1), the third to 7 (4 + 3), and so on.

Note:

After switching on, the machine will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or not.
If the data is received, the display will show "A.001" with the actually set address. If there is no data
received at the DMX-input, the display flashes "A001" with the 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 machine.

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

the input connector.

Control Board

The Control Board offers several features: you can simply set the starting address, switch on and off

ERROR MESSAGE

When power is applied, the unit will automatically enter “reset/test” mode. This mode brings all the internal motors
to a home position. If there is an internal problem with one or more of the motors an error code will flash in the
display in the form of “XXer” were as XX will represent a function number. For example, when the display shows
“05Er,” it means there is some type of error with the channel 5 motor. If there are multiple errors during the
start-up process they will all flash in the display. For example: if the fixtures has errors on channel 5, channel 6,
and channel 7 all at the same time, you will see the error message “05Er”, “06Er,” and ”07Er” flash repeated 5
times.
If an error does occur during the initial start-upprocedure the fixture will self-generate a second reset signal and try
to realign all the motors and correct the errors, if the error persist after a second attempt a third attempt will be
made.
If after a third attempt all the errors have not been corrected the fixture will make the following determinations:

1) 3 or more errors - The fixture cannot function properly with three or more errors therefore the fixture will place

itself in a stand-by mode until subsequent repairs can be made.

2) Less than 3 errors - The fixture has less than 3 errors, therefore most other functions will work properly. The
fixture will attempt to operate normally until the errors can be correct by a technician. The errors in question
will remain flashing in the display as a reminder of internal errors.

01Er:

(Color-wheel error) This message will appear after the reset of the fixture if the magnetic-indexing circuit
malfunctions (sensor failed or magnet missing) or the stepping-motor is defective (or its drive circuit on the main
PCB). The color wheel is not located in the default position after the reset.
