Optimizing  Lamp  Alignment: 

This  procedure  centers  the  lamp  in 

the reflector. Proper optimization will increase lamp life and ensure a 
bright crisp output. Improper optimization may add a yellow tint to the 
lamp output and reduce intensity.
1.  Be sure main power is disconnected and allow the unit to cool. If  
 

the you have just installed a new unit you can obviously skip this 

 

step.

2.   Make a preliminary adjustment: Turn the three lamp adjustment
 

thumb screws completely in (clockwise). Then back them each  

 

out (counter-clockwise) about three complete turns.

3.   Turn the unit on and allow it to reset.
4.   Using either a DMX controller or the control panel on the unit, 

 

strike the lamp and focus the light on a flat surface.

6.   Center the hot-spot (the brightest part of the beam) using the 3 
 

adjustment screws. 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.

7.   To reduce a hot-spot, pull the lamp in by turning all three screws 
 

clockwise 1/4-turn at a time until the light is evenly distributed.

8.   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 reflector. “Push” 

 

the lamp out by turning the screws.

Fuse Replacement:

 Locate and remove the unit’s power cord. Once 

the cord has been removed located the fuse holder located inside the 
power  socket.  Insert  a  flat-head  screw  driver  into  the  power  socket 
and gently pry out the fuse holder. Remove the bad fuse and replace 
with a new one. The fuse holder has a built-in socket for a spare fuse 
be sure not to confuse the spare fuse with active fuse.
