Safety Notice

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: The Eclipse IT Iris mechanical dimmer/dowser has been
designed to withstand the rigors of entertainment lighting. However, the

teflon coating on the Iris blades can only withstand temperatures up to 600°F.
When used with some excessively hot fixtures, degradation and possibly

flaking of this coating may occur.

USE WITH EXCESSIVELY HOT FIXTURES – OVER 700°F AT THE IRIS
BLADES – THAT RESULTS IN DEGRADATION OF THE HIGH TEMP

POWDER COATING IS EXCLUDED FROM THE PRODUCT WARRANTY.

This manual gives step-by-step instructions for preparation, setup, and
operation of the Eclipse IT Iris dowser.

There is a potential risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons if the
product is not used as instructed.

The Eclipse IT Iris dowser is to be used in an indoor environment only and is
not intended for residential use.

Introduction

Wybron’s Coloram IT system includes mechanical dowsers (Eclipse IT Iris and Eclipse IT
Shutter) and PS Power Supplies, all utilizing the Remote Device Management (RDM)
industry-standard feedback protocol. Offering a wide range of models with easy setup and
use, the Coloram IT system is part of Wybron’s Infotrace Control and Management System
– a new way to manage an entire lighting installation with RDM feedback

The lightweight Eclipse IT Iris dowser slides easily into the gel frame holder of its light
fixture. The compact PS Power Supply attaches easily to the truss of the lighting rig or
mount into a 19-inch rack.

The DMX512 control signal from the lighting console is connected to the PS Power Supply
and can continue on to additional PS power supplies or other DMX-controlled devices. The
power supply sends power, DMX control signal, and RDM information on a single cable,
eliminating the need for a separate power cable for the dowser.

Eclipse IT Iris dowsers are 100% compatible with all products of the Coloram IT family,
including Coloram IT and CXI IT color changers, PS Power Supplies, and Eclipse IT Shutter
dowsers. Eclipse IT Iris dowsers may be daisy-chained with other Coloram IT devices.

This manual gives step-by-step instructions for preparation, setup, and operation of the
Eclipse IT Iris.

Caution:
The Coloram IT System, including Eclipse IT Iris, is not compatible with Coloram II

(RAM) or Forerunner systems.

Do not connect Eclipse IT Iris dowsers to Coloram II (RAM) power supplies or
Forerunner power supplies.

Do not connect Coloram II (RAM) units to PS power supplies.

Damage from such action will not be covered by the product warranties.

Quick Start

1. Connect the Equipment

A. Attach the Eclipse IT Iris dimmer/dowser to a powered light fixture.
B. Connect the Eclipse to the PS Power Supply using the 4-pin Wybron

power/data cable.

C. Connect the PS Power Supply to non-dimmed 100-240 VAC, 50/60Hz power

and a DMX source.

Optional

D. Connect dimmers that have Infochip installed to the Infogate hardware and

software. Refer to the Infogate and Infochip manuals for details.

E. Using Infogate:

i. Initiate “Perform Discovery”
ii. In the DMX Map, drag and drop the DMX address for the Eclipse to DMX

address 1.

Operating Modes

The Eclipse has several modes of operation. In all cases, the PS Power Supply is needed
for control and power. Please refer to the Menu Details below for information on how to
select DMX, Local, Snap, Fast, or Smooth mode.

DMX512 Control

The level (0-100%) of the DMX channel to which the dowser is addressed
determines the fin position. The fins are closed at 0% and open at 100%.

Local Wired Pendant Control

A handheld pendant can be attached via a 3-pin XLR cable to manually open and
close the fins. Movement from fully open to fully closed or vice-versa takes two
seconds – this allows for precise fin positioning. Press the " + " button to open the
fins and the " - " button to close them. The wired pendant cable can be up to 1,000
feet long.

Self Test/Demo Mode

The dowser unit can be controlled by the menu buttons on the dowser unit. Please refer to
the Menu Details below, under Self Test (Demo) for details.

Signal and Power

The Eclipse uses a PS Power Supply with Coloram IT cables for DMX signal, RDM
communication and 24VDC power. The dowser can be daisy-chained with Coloram IT and
CXI IT color changers and Eclipse IT Shutter dowsers. Fin position is determined by the
DMX level (0-100%) of the control channel to which the dowser is addressed. The dowser
uses one DMX channel.

Fan Speed Control

The small fan in the Eclipse cools the electronics enclosure, therefore it always runs at full
speed and CANNOT be slowed or stopped.

Installing the Eclipse IT Iris

1. Attach the Eclipse to the fixture

Slide the dowser's mounting bracket into the gel frame holder of your fixture and lock the
gel frame retention clip (if available). The unit operates most effectively with the electronics
module oriented to the side or bottom.

2. Attach the safety cable

A safety cable is attached to the dowser. Run this cable around the pipe or truss from which
you hang the light fixture and clip it to itself.

3. Mount the power supply

The PS Power Supply is designed to be free-standing, truss-mounted, or rack-mounted.
You decide which mounting method best suits your application.

The power supply comes with a mounting bracket which hooks over the pipe or truss of
your lighting rig and is then locked into place with a thumb screw. If you have selected this
mounting method, connect the safety cable by running it around the pipe or truss to which
the power supply is attached.

Head-Feet Restrictions

The HEAD-FEET parameter is a method of accounting for the voltage drop in the
power/signal cable caused by the current drawn by each dowser.

To help understand this issue, think of it as water pressure (voltage) in a hose (cable)
feeding multiple water sprinkler heads (dowsers). If the hose (cable) is too long, or too
many sprinkler heads (dowsers) draw from the hose, the water pressure (voltage) will be
too low.

HEAD-FEET is defined as "the sum of cable lengths from each dowser to a single power
supply output.”

Head-Feet Example

Consider this example: Three Eclipse IT Iris units are connected to a power supply. The 4­pin power/data cable between the power supply and the first Eclipse Iris IT is 100 feet long.
The cable between the first and the second Eclipse is 20 feet long, and the cable between
the second and third Eclipse is also 20 feet long.

The amount of cable from the power supply to:

1st Eclipse IT Iris 100 ft
2nd Eclipse IT Iris 120 ft
3rd Eclipse IT Iris 140 ft
Total: 360 "head-feet"

Head-Feet Limits

• 1K (7.5”) Eclipse IT Iris (Model 87250): 1,500 head-feet

• 10” Eclipse IT Iris (Model 810060): 1,500 head-feet

• 2K (12”) Eclipse IT Iris (Model 812020): 1,500 head-feet

• 24” Eclipse IT Iris (Model 823020): 750 head-feet

If a daisy chain includes different models, use the model with the smallest amount of
"head-feet" for the calculation.

Cables

4-pin Power/Data Cable

The power/data cable uses 4-pin XLR connectors on either end and consists of two 14
AWG conductors and a 22 AWG twisted, shielded pair. The shells of the two XLR
connectors are not electrically connected – this prevents high-power currents from flowing
from chassis to chassis of the equipment. The twisted pair shield is connected only at the
male XLR connector end. This is the standard Wybron power/data Cable.

XLR Pin # Wire Color Function Size

1 White Ground 14 AWG
2 Green Data - 22 AWG
3 Red Data + 22 AWG
4 Black 24 Volts DC 14 AWG

Note: The cable used for models of the Eclipse IT Iris is the same cable used for the
Coloram IT, Coloram II, and Forerunner systems. The cable may be referred to as Wybron
4-pin cable.

DMX512 Control Cable

The DMX control cable from the lighting board to the dimmers, power supply, and Wybron’s
Infogate gateway (if used) is a five conductor cable with 5-pin XLR connectors on each end.
The wiring pin out is specified by the USITT DMX512/1990 standard.

Non-RDM Equipment and Infotrace

A lighting rig can use any combination of non-RDM equipment along with Wybron’s RDM­compatible equipment. The non-RDM equipment will work the old-fashioned way (hand
addressing, no status reporting or other features). The RDM protocol allows configuration,
status monitoring, and management of RDM devices in such a way that does not disturb
the normal operation of the DMX devices that do not recognize the RDM protocol.

Coloram IT and Standard (Non-RDM) Environments

The Coloram IT family of products (Coloram IT, CXI IT, Eclipse IT Iris, and Eclipse IT
Shutter, which all must be connected to PS power supplies) will work in any standard
environment that does not use Infogate. (For more information about Infogate and Wybron’s
RDM-based Infotrace system, please go to page 23 of this manual.)

Infotrace Control and Management System Overview

Figure 8

The diagram above outlines the key components of the Infotrace Control and Management
System, which uses the following terms:

Infotrace – The entire system is referred to as the Infotrace system.

Infogate – The software and hardware required to facilitate the transfer and

display of information.

Infochip – A conversion chip that can be used with non-RDM equipment to allow

it to communicate with the Infogate software.

Infostore – An Internet-based application that aggregates data captured by

Infogate and accumulates the historical information related to
equipment performance.

IT Products – Coloram IT, CXI IT, Eclipse IT Shutter, and Eclipse IT Iris all have

updated electronics to support RDM communication plus additional
product improvements, including sensors to detect a variety of
conditions.

The heart of the Infotrace (IT) system is Infogate – specialized software and hardware that
uses the feedback protocol Remote Device Management (RDM) to facilitate remote
addressing and diagnostics for potentially every piece of equipment mounted on a rig.
Infogate works with all Wybron IT products and all RDM-compatible equipment from any
manufacturer.

In addition, any non-RDM equipment can be upgraded with the installation of an Infochip.
Because Infogate can work with any piece of equipment, the setup, unit testing, and
troubleshooting for an entire rig can be coordinated from a single laptop.

Wybron's IT equipment (Coloram IT, CXI IT, Eclipse Shutter IT, and Eclipse Iris IT) is
equipped with a series of sensors that can relay a wealth of information to Infogate. These
sensors can detect everything from light, voltage, and current, to fan speed and even
gelstring frame color information.

So while RDM equipment will allow identification and remote addressing, IT equipment can
give more specific status information and warn of potential problems, possibly averting
failures in the middle of a show. If the status of a device indicates any problem, Infogate
displays an alert with the nature of the problem and its exact location. Troubleshooting is
now done in a fraction of the time.

Infotrace provides the ability to:

• Automate the setup of DMX addresses – no more manual setting of DIP switches

• Proactively check the condition of equipment before, during and after a show

• Track lamp duty cycles to predict lamp failures before they happen
