Operation - Strong Super Trouper Instruction Manual

REMOVE THE PLASTIC COVER from the xenon bulb. Do not ignite the lamp with
the protective shipping cover on the bulb.
A GLASS HEAT FILTER is supplied to reduce the temperature at the optical system
and color gels. This filter is a narrow glass strip that covers only the center portion of the beam. Insert
the heat filter in the bracket provided on the inside of the lam p house at the front opening (see Figure
2, Item 2). Place the filter in position with the coated surface facing the bulb. The coated surface is
indicated by a small XX or other marking. To prevent damage to optical system components, do not
operate the spotlight with the filter removed or reversed.
SECURE THE LAMPHOUSE COVER with the (4) tamperproof screws using the
special screwdriver provided. The cover must be securely in position to actuate the interlock switch
and permit lamp ignition.
CLOSE THE CIRCUIT BREAKER on the xenon power supply to energize the power
supply. The blowers in the power supply and in the lamphouse will start; the lamphouse blower will
actuate the air intake interlock switch to permit bulb ignition. The lamp and power supply blowers
will operate continuously until the xenon power supply is de-energized.
PLACE THE LAMP SWITCH in the ON position and the xenon bulb will ignite.
Allow a few minutes for the current to stabilize, and read the lamphouse ammeter. The bulb must
be operated within the current range specified by the bulb manufacturer. The ranges for the xenon
bulbs approved for use with the Xenon Super Trouper are as follow:
WATTAGE
1000
1600
2000
ADJUST THE POWER SUPPLY as instructed in the power supply manual for the
correct operating current. The current setting must be increased in time to compensate for bulb aging,
but do not, at any time, exceed the maximum current rating.
REMOVE THE REAR COVER PANEL (two black plastic pull-type knobs) to expose
the bulb position adjustment control.
THE CENTER SECTION of the control is a threaded member that focuses the bulb in
relation to the reflector. Turning this adjustment moves the bulb on the horizontal plane, into or out
of the reflector. Rotating this section clockwise moves the bulb away from the reflector. The small
knurled screw to the left of this section can be tightened to lock the focusing mechanism in place
after the bulb alignment procedure has been completed.
