Testing Luminaire Self-Tests The luminaire is capable of running self tests by using the TEST menu functions. For detailed instructions regarding the luminaire’s self-test function, refer to the VL3000 User’s Manual for your luminaire (02.9678.0001 or 02.9678.0005). Calibration Sequence The following is an outline of the luminaire’s standard calibration sequence: Phase 1 •...
Most mechanisms within the VL3000 luminaire are equipped with either optical or magnetic sensors. The VL3000 master control board (MCB) has labeled test points for reading DC voltages at each sensor. Testing is best performed with a digital voltmeter for sensor readings or an oscilloscope for pan/tilt encoder readings.

❋ VARI LITE® - VL3000™ S ERIES UMINAIRE ERVICE ANUAL Notes regarding specific mechanisms: • The four color mixers and dimmer will read high when the tab is in the optical sensor. • The fixed color wheel will read low when the magnet is at the sensor and high at other times.

❋ VARI LITE® - VL3000™ S ERIES UMINAIRE ERVICE ANUAL Maintenance Procedures Lamp Replacement VL Part No: 71.2557.1200 WARNING: Ensure that power is removed from luminaire when installing lamp. CAUTION: Wear cotton gloves or other covering while installing lamp. Touching lamp glass or lamp holder contacts with bare fingers will leave oil and may cause the lamp to explode or reduce lamp life.
Align Lamp The design of the VL3000 luminaire optical system allows for a flat or peaked field. A flat field is one where there is no detectable hot spot and a peaked field is one where the intensity of the beam is greater at the center of the beam than at the perimeter.
❋ VARI LITE® - VL3000™ S ERIES UMINAIRE ERVICE ANUAL Lamp Power Cut-Off Switch The lower fan duct assembly is equipped with a lamp power cut-off switch. If the hinged duct is raised during operation, the relay automatically disengages and the lamp will douse. When the duct is closed, lamp power is restored.
AINTENANCE ROCEDURES EPLACEMENT Gobo Replacement WARNING: Remove power from luminaire before performing maintenance. Gobos can be HOT after operation. Allow to cool before replacing. WARNING: Users of VARI❋LITE luminaires should not install or use metal gobos. The use of metal gobos in any VARI❋LITE product may damage the luminaire and could void the luminaire’s warranty.
