To insert the lamp MSR 575W/2 loosen the lamp cover at the rear of head (see the drawings ) by remowing the 3 fastening screws which are marked "X,Y,Z".Carefully pull out the cover with the lamp socket assembly.If changing the lamp, remove the old lamp from the socket.
  • Page 7: Lamp Adjustment

    4.2 Lamp adjustment 3 adjustment screws "A,B,C" The ColorSpot 575E AT 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 a flat surface (wall).Center a hot-spot(the brightest part of the image) by using the 3 adjustment screws "A,B,C".Turn one screw after another a quarter-turn clokwise(counter-clokwise) to set the hot-spot in the center of the image.If you cannot detect the hot-spot,adjust the lamp until the light is evenly distributed.

  • Page 10: Rigging The Fixture

    4.7 Rigging the fixture 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 of the projector has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10 times the weight for 1 hour without any harming deformation.
  • Page 11 For overhead use, always install a safety-rope that can hold at least 10 times the weight of the fixture. You must only use safety-ropes with screw-on carabines. Pull the safety-rope through the two apertures on the bottom of the base and over the trussing system etc. Insert the end in the carabine and tighten the fixation screw. Fixation via the omega holders 1.Bolt each clamp (1) to the omega holder (4) with M12 bolt and lock nut through the hole in the holder.
  • Page 12: Dmx-512 Connection/Connection Between Fixtures

    4.8 DMX-512 connection/connection between fixtures The fixture is equipped with both 3-pin and 5-pin XLR sockets for DMX input and output.The sockets are wired in parallel. Only use a shielded twisted-pair cable designed for RS-485 and 3-pin or 5-pin XLR-plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller with the fixture or one fixture with another.
  • Page 13: Ethernet Connection

    4.9 Ethernet connection The fixtures on a data link are connected to the Ethernet with Art-Net communication protocol.The controlling software from PC (or lighting console) has to support Art-Net protocol. Art-Net communication protocol is a 10 Base T Ethernet protocol based on the TCP/IP.Its purpose is to allow transfer of large amounts of DMX 512 data over a wide area using standard network technology.
  • Page 14 Ethernet / DMX connection Options "Ethernet/DMX" has to be selected from "Set Ethernet Mode" menu on the first fixture (connected to the network) in the fixture chain,next fixtures have standard DMX addresses. Connect the Ethernet-input of the first fixture in the data chain with the network. Connect the DMX output of this fixture with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are connected to the DMX chain.

  • Page 39: Maintenance And Cleaning

    14. Maintenance and cleaning It is absolutely essential that the fixture is kept clean and that dust, dirt and smoke-fluid residues must not build up on or within the fixture. Otherwise, the fixture‘s light-output will be significantly reduced. Regular cleaning will not only ensure the maximum light-output, but will also allow the fixture to function reliably throughout its life.
