L a m p
After switching on the RoboScan 812, the lamp remains off until a "lamp on" command is
sent from the controller. If using a Martin protocol controller, the lamp may also be turned
off via the controller. This feature is not implemented in the DMX protocol - to turn off the
lamp you must power off the fixture.
It's important to note that the lamp is a cold restrike type: it must be cold before striking is
possible. The lamp must cool for approximately 5 minutes before it can be turned on again.
P a n / T i l t
The moving mirror allows you to pan the beam 175° and tilt it 83°. Movement speed may
be adjusted with the controller fade time (DMX tracking mode and Martin controllers) or
on a separate channel (DMX vector mode).
C o l o r W h e e l
The RoboScan 812 has 13 positions on the color wheel: 11 with saturated dichroic colors,
open white, and blackout. The wheel can be positioned between 2 colors to split the beam.
The speed of the color and gobo wheels may be adjusted with the controller fade time
(DMX tracking mode and Martin controllers) or on a separate channel (DMX vector mode).
Selecting color strobe causes the color wheel to change between any 2 adjacent colors or
between white and black. The strobe speed is variable.
G o b o s
The RoboScan 812 has 11 gobos on the gobo wheel plus open and blackout. Selecting gobo
strobe causes the gobo wheel to change between any 2 adjacent gobos or between full open
and black. The strobe speed is variable.
R a n d o m S e q u e n c e
The RoboScan 812 may be set to perform a preprogrammed sequence with automatic or
music trigger.
F o c u s
Focus may be adjusted manually from 1 meter to infinity by turning the threaded lens barrel
(7). Screwing the lens in increases the focus distance; screwing it out decreases the distance
at which the image is focused.
