Align Lamp For Maximum Beam Irradiance

After a new lamp is installed in either the incandescent or arc version of the luminaire, it will be
necessary to align the lamp to optimize the beam.
WARNING: Backcap and adjustment screws will be HOT during lamp operation. Wear gloves and/or
use tools to prevent burns.
To align lamp:
Step 1. Set intensity to 100%.
Step 2. Position beam on a white wall at a distance of 10 to 20 feet.
Step 3. Using console or internal luminaire menu controls, set zoom to zero and focus to a hard
edge. If installed, be sure that beam-size iris and shutters are open.
Step 4. Using three adjustment screws, adjust hot spot to center of beam
Step 5. Check color uniformity as follows:
a. Position one of the color stages at 30% of maximum. (Cyan or Magenta work best.)
b. Verify that beam color is uniform (if lamp is misaligned, color will be concentrated to
02. 96 63. 000 1 G
one side of beam). If color is not uniform, readjust lamp until color is uniform across
entire beam field.
