Lamp Adjustment; Rigging - PROEL TARKUS 575 SPOT User Manual

LAMP ADJUSTMENT

The lamp holder is aligned at the factory. Due to differences between lamps, fine
adjustment may improve light performance
Strike the lamp, open the shutter and the iris, set the dimmer intensity onto 100% and
focus the light on flat surface (wall). Center the hot-spot (the brightest part of the beam)
using the 3 adjustment screws. Turn one screw at a time to drag the hot-spot diagonally
across the projected image. If you cannot detect a hop-spot, adjust the lamp until the
light is even.
To reduce a hot-spot, pull the lamp in by turning all three screws clockwise 1/4-turn at a
time until the light is evenly distributed.
If the light is brighter around the edge than it is in the center, or if light output is low, the
lamp is too far back in the reflector. "Push" the lamp out by turning the screws "A, B, C"
counterclockwise 1/4-turn at a time the light is bright and evenly distributed.

RIGGING

DANGER TO LIFE: Please consider the respective national norms during the installation.
The installation must only be carried out by an authorized dealer.
The installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment. This
secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that no part of the installation
can fall down if the main attachment fails.
When rigging, derigging or servicing the fixture staying in the area below the installation
place, on bridges, under high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations
are approved by an expert before taking into operation for the first time and after
changes before taking into operation another time.
IMPORTANT: OVERHEAD RIGGING REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE, including
(but not limited to) calculating working load limits, installation material being used, and
periodic safety inspection of all installation material and the projector. If you lack these
qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself, but instead use a professional
structural rigger. Improper installation can result in bodily injury and. or damage to
property.
The projector has to be installed out of the reach of people.
If the projector shall be lowered from the ceiling or high joists, professional trussing
systems have to be used. The projector must never be fixed swinging freely in the room.
CAUTION: Projectors may cause severe injuries when crashing down. If you have
doubts concerning the safety of a possible installation, do NOT install the projector.
