CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION 1-3

7091M1005

08/28/00

This chapter describes the scope and maintenance concept, as well as recommended safety

practices and manual organization.

CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION 1-3

7091M1005

08/28/00

Scope

This is an owners manual for the IRIDEONAR500exterior wash luminaire. The

information in this manual requires some basic knowledge of optics, electronics, and electrical

repair. This manual is divided into nine major topics: Introduction; Description; Installation;

Test; Troubleshooting; Maintenance; Optional Accessories; Replacement Parts/Wiring

Diagrams; and Software License/Limited Warranty.

Maintenance Concept

Luminaire installation, power connections, or internal electrical component repair should be

performed by an electrical contractor only. Maintenance, such as changing a lamp or linear

actuator, may be performed by in-house maintenance personnel. Please read each procedure

section thoroughly before performing any maintenance.

Recommended Safety Practices

• Extreme caution must be taken when working with any electrical

device.

• Never perform internal maintenance or external cable repair when

power is supplied to luminaire.

• Do not expose internal components to moisture, dust, or dirt.

• Do not drop, drag, or hammer on any part of the luminaire.

• Do not touch lamp, reflector, or dichroic filters with uncovered

fingers.

• The head assembly is very heavy; loosen with caution.

• Do not mount stanchion assembly up-side down. The stanchion

contains a very heavy ballast assembly that would slide out when

stanchion cap is removed.

• Electronic Theatre Controls, Inc. is not liable for any personal injury

or equipment damage that may occur when performing luminaire

maintenance.

WARNING: This appliance must be earthed. Flammable objects must be kept

a minimum of 13′-2″(4.0 m) from lens.

CAUTION: Be careful when loosening 1/4 inch Allen screw, 3/4 inch bolt

and 1 1/4 inch nut installed in tilt tube clamp and remote mounting foot. This

unit is very heavy and could rotate quickly once it is loosened.

WARNING: The MSD700 Watt, HID lamp must be changed at 3000 hours of

life. Failure to change lamp may result in catastrophic failure of bulb causing

extensive damage to luminaire.

Manual Organization

This manual contains all relevant information pertaining to the installation, testing,

troubleshooting, and maintenance of the AR500 standard and remote luminaire versions. In the

CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION 1-3

7091M1005

08/28/00

Installation chapter, the “Luminaire Installation Procedure” section contains complete

installation instructions for both standard and remote luminaire versions.

Reference dimensions and measurements are given in English and metric.

It is important to note that this manual incorporates distinct type styles to differentiate between

various types of text. These styles are defined as follows:

WARNING: Indicates incorrect procedure may cause bodily harm.

CAUTION: Indicates incorrect procedure may cause equipment

damage.

Note: Indicates particular items of interest.

Technical Assistance

The AR500 luminaire is a low maintenance luminaire, but in the event of malfunction,

troubleshooting and repair procedures have been included. For further assistance or questions

regarding the AR500 luminaire, please contact
