To insert the lamp (MSR GOLD 700 FastFit):
1. Disconnect the xture from power and allow it to cool
at least 15 minutes.
2. Make sure that xture´s head is in the position as
shown on the picture.Loosen the two quarter-turn
fasteners (1) marked “X,Y“ on the lamp cover (2) to
turn the cover down.
3. Holding the lamp by its ceramic base (3), carefully
turn the lamp to the left as shown on the picture in
order to loosen the lamp from the lamp holder (4).
Gently pull the lamp out of the lamp holder
4. Holding the new lamp by its ceramics base, gently
insert the lamp to the lamp socket and turn the base
to the right. Make sure that the lamp is installed tightly
into the lamp socket.
Do not install a lamp with a higher wattage! A lamp like
this generates temperatures the device is not designed
for. Damages caused by non-observance are not subject
to warranty. Please follow the lamp manufacturer‘s
notes! Do not touch the glass bulb bare hand during the
installation!
5. Reinsert the lamp cover (2) and tighten two quarter-turn
fasteners (1) again.
6. Align the new lamp (see instructions below)
7. Reset „Lamp On Time” and „Lamp Strikes” counters
in „Fixture information” menu.
Do not operate this xture with open lamp cover!
4.3 Lamp adjustment
The lamp holder is aligned at the factory.
Due to differences between lamps, ne adjustment may improve light performance:
1. Switch on the xture and after reset turn on the lamp.
2. Cancel all effects, open the shutter and focus the light
on a
at surface (wall) using either DMX controller or function
„Lamp adjustment” in „Special functions menu”.
3. Center the hot-spot (the brightest part of the beam) using
the
3 adjustment screws “A, B, C”. Turn one screw at a time
to drag the hot-spot, diagonally across the projected
image. If you cannot detect a hot -spot, adjust the lamp
until the light is even.
To reduce a hot-spot, pull the lamp in by turning all three
screws „A, B, C” clockwise 1/4-turn at a time until the light
is evenly distributed.
If the light is brighter around the edge than it is in the
center, or if light output is low, the lamp is too far back in
the reector. „Push” the lamp out by turning the screws
“A, B, C” counterclockwise 1/4-turn at a time until the
light is bright and evenly distributed.
