GS Multi-Mirror Operating Instructions
The OPTI Multi-Mirror has small mirrors, laid out in a pattern on a convex rotating disc to create
multiple animated imagery. Perfect for use with OPTI Abstract Wheels, especially snow, the
OPTI Multi Mirror also fragments and animates other effects with spectacular results.
The mirror disc is packed separately
from the main body. Unpack both
items and firmly push the central
boss on the mirror disc over the
'D' section drive shaft on the carriage.
The Multi-Mirror is now assembled and ready to fit onto
the Mirror Bracket (supplied) fitted onto the projector.
Caution: Take care to ensure that the load is evenly
distributed while attaching the mirror disc. Avoid twisting
or distorting, as the individual mirrors may become
detached. Should this happen, reattach using silicone
adhesive.
IMPORTANT LENS INFORMATION
Only use 85mm to 150mm lenses. The wide angle
45mm and 60mm lenses are not suitable.
POSITION THE PROJECTOR
Before fitting the mirror place or mount the projector
in a position and at an angle from where the imagery
can be projected onto the desired surface. Then, fit
the required Effect in the gate.
Adjusting the Vertical angle
of the Projector
There are two types of adjustment
both achieved by loosening the
central/pivot knobs and locking levers.
1. Rotated on it's axis (to adjust
Vertical angle).
2. Moved along the body of the
projector (to adjust balance).
Both adjustments may be necessary
when moving the Hanging Bracket
around the Projector from above to below or vice versa.
Before Fitting an Effect
Ensure that the rails protrude
at least 105mm from the body
of the Projector.
Avoid rails protruding too far
forward. They can obstruct
the projected light.
1. Loosen the Rail
Adjustment Screws on
the side of the Projector.
* Take care not to overtighten the Rail Adjustment Screws as this may damage them.
105mm
Minimum
2. Slide both Rails in or out
to desired position.
3. Tighten the Rail Screws*.

Fitting an Effect
1. Fit the Effect(s) onto the Effect Accessory.
This is usually a 'push-on' but,
in the case of 575 Safe Wheels,
may require a cross head
screwdriver (see Effect Accessory
instructions for details).
2. Loosen the Rail knobs on the
Effect Accessory until the
screw ends are flush or
recessed.
3. Fit the Effect Accessory onto
the 12V~ Projector rails,
between the body of the
Projector and the
Lens Housing, with
the effect 15mm from the
body of the Projector.
FIT THE MIRROR ONTO LENS HOUSING
Loosen the 3 retaining screws
around the mounting collar of
the Mirror until the ends of the
screws, inside the ring, are flush
or recessed.
2. Gently push the Mirror mounting
collar over the ring on the
Lens Housing until flush.
3. Turn the projector on (with
the effect to be projected,
on the appropriate Effect
Accessory, in the gate).
To turn on, plug the IEC lead
into the socket on the back of
the projector and 'switch' on.
The imagery will now project and, if the mirror is already
set at an angle, will be deflected by the static mirrors.
