Trouble Shooting
Trouble Shooting:
Listed below are a few common problems that
you may encounter, with solutions.
No light output from the unit;
1. Be sure you have connected your unit into a standard 120v wall
outlet.
2. Be sure the external fuse has not blown. The fuse is located on
the bottom panel of the unit.
3. Remove the lamp holder and be sure the lamp is seated in its
socket properly. Occasionally lamps become loose during ship-
ping be sure the lamp is push in to its socket all the way.
4. Be sure the fuse holder is completely and properly seated.
Unit does not respond to sound;
1. Low frequencies (bass) should cause the unit to react to sound.
Tapping on the microphone, quiet or high pitched sounds may
not activate the unit.
Fixture Cleaning:
Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the
internal and external optical lenses and mirror should be carried out
periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on
the environment in which the fixture operates (I.e. smoke, fog residue,
dust, dew). In heavy club use we recommend cleaning on a monthly
basis. Periodic cleaning will ensure longevity, and crisp output.
1. Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the out-
side casing.
2. Use a brush to wipe down the cooling vents and fan grill.
3. Clean the external optics and mirror with glass cleaner and a soft
cloth every 20 days.
4. Clean the internal optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth every
30-60 days.
5. Always be sure to dry all parts completely before plugging the unit
back in.
