Securing With A Safety Cable; Mounting On A Ufo1 (Universal Fixing Object 1); Using An External Power Source - GLP Creative Light 1 User Manual

Securing with a safety cable

Follow the safety regulations of your region when using the CL1 overhead. If the CL1
can cause injury or damage if it falls, secure it with a secondary attachment such as
a safety cable that is approved for the weight of the CL1.
To secure the CL1:
See 'Product overview' on page 9. Fasten the included M6 Eyebolt into one of
the three M6 threaded holes on the back of the CL1.
Attach a safety cable to the eyebolt and to a secure anchoring point so that it
will hold the CL1 if it falls. Take up as much slack as possible in the safety cable.

Mounting on a UFO1 (Universal Fixing Object 1)

See Figure 20. The UFO1 (Universal Fixing Object
1) from GLP simplifies mounting and removing
the CL1 from rigging trusses, microphone stands,
camera tripods, flat surfaces, etc.
To mount the UFO1, you can:
• permanently fasten the UFO1 to a surface in
any orientation using two screws A passed
through the 4 mm holes in its center,
• fasten the UFO1 to a camera tripod or other
photographic equipment stand, microphone
stand etc. using the 1/4"-20 UNC and 3/8"-16
UNC threaded holes B provided on either side
of the UFO1, or
• fasten a rigging clamp to the UFO1 by fastening a bolt into the M10 threaded
hole C in the center of the UFO1. You can then fasten the rigging clamp to a
rigging truss.
Once you have mounted the UFO1, you can then stick the CL1 to the UFO1 using
the CL1's magnetic mount. You can then remove the CL1 for charging and replace
instantly thanks to the magnetic mounting system.
The UFO1 provides eyelets D as anchoring points for safety cables. The eyelets can
also be used to support USB cables to provide permanent power, for example.

Using an external power source

For continuous operation with no need to recharge the CL1's battery, it is possible to
connect the CL1 to a power source via a USB cable connected to the CL1's USB-C
input connector.
The power source must be capable of safely supplying a constant operating current
of:
• 2 amps with the CL1 in Normal power mode, and
• 3 amps with the CL1 in High power mode.
