Maintenance

Upgrading the firmware
The firmware installed on the fixture can be identified in two ways:
1. When powering on the fixture, the display will show the currently installed firmware
2. Go to the MENU → INFO → SOFTWARE VERSION
To perform firmware updates, use a Windows-based personal computer, a SGM USB 5-Pin-XLR uploader cable available from your
SGM dealer and the SGM Firmware Tool software, available on the SGM website http://www.sgmlight.com.
Additionally, the Firmware Tool software offers a simple DMX controller featuring 512 DMX channels for test purposes.
We recommend that the fixture's firmware is always up-to-date.

Setting the display saver
By default the OLED display dims down after a short period when the control panel is not in use, but it can also be set to turn off
completely. Pressing any key will always turn on the display or restore it to normal brightness. To change the display saver, go to OK
→ SETTINGS → DISPLAY OFF. This can also be changed via RDM - please see "RDM" on page 17.
NOTE: To avoid the risk of display deterioration caused by long term use in permanent installations, it is recommended to use the
DISPLAY OFF setting.
Cleaning
SGM luminaires with IP65 or IP66-rating do not need any cleaning procedures inside the fixture. However, cleaning the front lens may
be needed to achieve the maximum light output after exposure to dust, sand, or dirt. Exterior housing can also be cleaned to get a
better look. To maintain adequate cooling, fans must be cleaned periodically.
Whenever necessary, clean the G-Spot Turbo using a soft cloth dampened with a solution of water and a mild detergent. Do not use
products that contain solvents, abrasives, or caustic agents for cleaning, as they can cause damage to both hardware, cables, and
connectors.
Cleaning will vary greatly depending on the operating environment and installation. It should therefore be checked at frequent
intervals within the first few weeks of operation to see how often cleaning is necessary.
