VARI LITE® - VL1000™ ERS L ’ UMINAIRE ANUAL Male Termination Connector A male XLR termination connector is required at the last luminaire (or "far end of the line") to prevent signal reflections. Signal reflections may cancel out the signal at certain line lengths, resulting in errors.
NSTALLATION NSTALLATION ROCEDURES Installation Procedures Installing Lamp (Incandescent Models) In the event the lamp was packed separately during shipment, it will be necessary to install before use. WARNING: Ensure that power is removed from luminaire when installing lamp. CAUTION: Wear cotton gloves or other covering while installing lamp. Touching lamp glass with bare fingers will leave oil and may cause the lamp to explode or reduce lamp life.
Page 34
VARI LITE® - VL1000™ ERS L ’ UMINAIRE ANUAL Step 3. At backcap, flip two bail clamps outward (Figure 2-2). Step 4. Flip two base clamps outward away from socket. Step 5. Grip lamp by base and firmly install in socket.

VARI LITE® - VL1000™ ERS L ’ UMINAIRE ANUAL Connecting Data and Power A maximum of 32 luminaires may be connected in any one DMX data link. Note: This maximum limit applies to the luminaire "daisy chain" only. Your system or console may require fewer luminaires on a single data link path.
Power-Up and Configuration Overview First Power-Up When powering up a VL1000 luminaire for the first time, the lamp type and shutter settings must be configured. This procedure will usually happen prior to delivery. However, in the event that it has not been done or if the Main Controller Board has been replaced, it will be necessary.
VARI LITE® - VL1000™ ERS L ’ UMINAIRE ANUAL Standard Power Up Procedure Use this procedure when powering up a luminaire that has already been configured. (Refer to “Power-Up and Configuration Overview” on page 25.) Note: Refer to Chapter 4: Menu System for detailed instructions on menu functions.
NSTALLATION OWERING Power Up and Configuration Procedure Use this procedure when powering up a luminaire that has not been previously configured. (Refer to “Power-Up and Configuration Overview” on page 25.) Note: Refer to Chapter 4: Menu System for detailed instructions on menu functions. CAUTION: Before applying power, be sure the luminaire is hung or positioned so that the head and yoke can move freely without restriction.
VARI LITE® - VL1000™ ERS L ’ UMINAIRE ANUAL 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.
NSTALLATION DDRESSING Addressing Program Starting Address The DMX starting address is entered using the Menu Display. This address will be retained even if the power is removed. Note: Refer to Chapter 4: Menu System for detailed instructions on menu functions. Note: Refer to your console operating instructions for specific information regarding its addressing requirements.

VARI LITE® - VL1000™ ERS L ’ UMINAIRE ANUAL Luminaire Timing Timing Channel Information Timing channel control improves the timed moves of certain groups of parameters. We provide three timing channels, one for Focus (Pan and Tilt), one for color parameters and one for beam parameters.
Page 57
PERATION UMINAIRE IMING Step 4. Set console timing (or cue fade time) for parameters and timing channels to zero seconds. Step 5. Store cue. Note: Avoid changing timing channel values in a fading cue. This can cause unexpected behavior in the luminaire as the timing channel value is updated over time. Timing channel values and the final destination of the parameters affected by the timing channel should always be sent in a zero count.
