               Trouble Shooting

Trouble  Shooting:

  Listed  below  are  a  few  common  problems  that 

you may encounter, with solutions.

No light output from the fixture;

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 at  
 

 the rear panel of the unit.  

 

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.

Here is some information that will help you run certain 
functions of the DMX Mode.

• To use the phrase scroll function of channel 1 (values 13-
25), you must first choose your desired phrase. To select 
your desired phrase please see pages 9 -11. Once you have 
selected your desired phrase, let it scroll normally at least 2 
or more times, and then press the UP button to confirm. Now 
you can go into DMX mode, channel 1, values 13-25, and your 
desired phrase will scroll. This procedure must be repeated 
each time you want a different phrase to scroll in DMX Mode.

• The function of Channel 2 depends on what channel 1 is set 
to. If you are running a program, channel 2 will control the run-
ning speed of the program. If you running sound active mode, 
channel 2 will control the microphone sensitivity level.
