Emerald Scan II
Operation
you to link up to 16 units together and operate without a controller.
In Master-Slave mode, the units will react to sound. In Master-Slave
operation one unit will act as the controlling unit and the others will
react to the controlling units programs. Any unit can act as a Master
or as a Slave.
1. Using standard XLR microphone cables, daisy chain your units
together via the XLR connector on the rear of the units. Remem-
ber the Male XLR connector is the input and the Female XLR
connector is the output. For longer cable runs we suggest a
terminator at the last fixture.
2. Choose a unit to function as the Master and set dipswitch #1 to
the “On” position.. This unit must be the first unit in line. Then sim-
ply daisy chain the units together using XLR cables.
3. Now set the Slave units dipswitches to whatever you desire, but
dipswitch #1 must be in the “Off” position. Now they should
react the same as the MASTER.
4. The optional
BC 30 Controller
(not included)
may be used to
control different functions including blackout.

Fixture Cleaning:
Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning
the internal and external lenses should be carried out periodically to
optimize light output.
1. Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the out-
side casing.
2. Clean the external optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth every
20 days.
3. Always be sure to dry all parts completely before plugging the
unit back in.
Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture
operates (I.e. smoke, fog residue, dust, dew). In heavy use we recom-
mend cleaning on a monthly basis. Periodic cleaning will ensure lon-
gevity, and crisp beam output.

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.
