Preparation for use

Warning! Read 'Safety' starting on page 4 before installing the impression
X5.
Warning! Use an X5 Omega Bracket with Handles installed on the fixture's
base as described in this chapter when installing the X5 in any other
orientation than hanging vertically downwards.

Included items

The impression X5 is supplied with a power cable with a Neutrik powerCON TRUE1
connector and an X5 Tripod floor stand.

Lifting and carrying

To carry the impression X5, apply the tilt lock and lift the fixture by the yoke. For more
convenient handling, install an X5 Omega Bracket with Handles on the baseplate
and use this for carrying.
To remove the fixture from a flightcase and prepare for installation on a truss or
similar structure, fasten two omega brackets with handles to the fixture using the
camlock bracket attachment points in the base of the fixture. Lift the fixture straight
up out of the flightcase and hang it on the truss chord.
To remove the fixture from a flightcase and place it on the ground or horizontal
surface that can hold the weight of the fixture, fasten the fixture's floor stand
(supplied) to the fixture using the camlock bracket attachment points in the base of
the fixture. Lift the fixture straight up out of the flightcase, turn it upside down and
place it onto the surface.

Orientation and location

The fixture may be rigged in any orientation following the instructions in this chapter
or placed on a level surface in locations where it is safe to stand the fixture.
Make sure that the head will be at least 0.1 m / 3 in. ft. away from combustible
materials (wood, paper, textiles, etc.) including curtains and stage scenery when the
fixture is installed.
Make sure that there will be a minimum of 1 m / 3.3 ft. between the fixture and any
surface to be illuminated.
Make sure that there is no risk of collision when the head pans and tilts. Allow a
minimum center-to-center distance of 465 mm / 18.3 in. when installing fixtures side
by side.

Identifying the front of the fixture

To identify the front of the fixture, look at the safety attachment points in the fixture's
baseplate. With pan centered at 0°:
● the attachment point colored black is on the front (stage side) of the fixture, and
● the attachment point colored grey is on the back of the fixture.
