    Introduction Welcome Welcome to the Dyna Drum SO range from Acclaim Lighting.

  • Page 6: Installation

    Installation Mounting the unit Each Dyna Drum SO fixture includes a sturdy yoke mount with multiple holes in its base for various fixing options. Dyna Drum SO fixtures weigh 26.4lbs (12Kg) - ensure that the mounting surface and the fixings used are sufficiently rated for the task (including wind shear forces).
  • Page 7: Fitting A Snoot

    Fitting a snoot Snoots help to reduce or eliminate light spill into unwanted areas. The full and half snoots available from Acclaim Lighting are attached to the Dyna Drum SO units in the same way. 1 Using a 3/16” (4mm) hex key, remove the four bolts that secure the front ring.
  • Page 8: Using An Optional Tenon Mount

    Using an optional tenon mount Optional tenon mounts are available for use when a Dyna Drum SO needs to be mounted on top of a vertical pole. Tenon mounts are available for use with 2” and 4” poles of sufficient rigidity for the weight of the fixture.

  • Page 11: Operation

    Operation Operation of the fixture will commence as soon as power is applied and the user display on the rear panel will first show (Acclaim) and then either show or a DMX address number (if a valid DMX input is present). The fixture may or may not immediately show output from its emitters - this will depend upon the settings within the menu and/or control input.

  • Page 16: Setting The Dmx Address

    Setting the DMX address When external control is used, the DMX start address of the fixture needs to match the start address being used by the controlling device.

  • Page 17: Adjusting The User Display

    Adjusting the user display You can make adjustments to the user display to suit your installation: • You can invert the display so that it reads correctly when the fixture is mounted inverted. • You can blackout the display when it is not in use - it will re-illuminate when you press a button.
