Modes Of Operation
Stand Alone
The Smart Move
®
Vertical can operate in stand alone mode or can
be controlled by a lighting console using DMX 512.
For simple operation without DMX control, set the rotary
switches to 701, and then adjust the speed by turning the black
speed control knob clockwise for faster movement or counter-
clockwise for slower movement. To access the remaining 16
preprogrammed effects, simply set the first rotary switch at 7 and
the remaining two rotary switches to correspond to the effects
listed on the back of the unit.
DMX Control
The Smart Move
®
Vertical DMX
allows three modes of operation
and requires 3 channels of DMX when used with a lighting desk.
Vertical Mode
This mode moves the gobo in a continuous cycle from .25 to 60
strokes per minute. In this mode of operation, set:
DMX channel 3 at 0
DMX channel 2 at 0
DMX channel 1 at 1-100% to set speed
Indexing Mode
This mode allows the user to position the gobo at any of the 200
positions in the stroke. In this mode of operation, set:
DMX Channel 3 at 0
DMX Channel 2 at 1-100% to set speed
DMX Channel 1 at 1-100% to set position
Gobo Installation
The Apollo gobos are held in place
with two Phillips head screws for ease
of use. Begin installation by sliding
the gobo into the slots found at the
base of the Smart Move® Vertical.
For correct projection of image, install
the gobo with image upside down
facing the housing as shown above.
Continue sliding the gobo into the
Smart Move® Vertical until the holes
in the gobo line up with the screw
holes on the gobo carrier plate.
Screw two Phillips head screws
until tight. Do not Over tighten!
Your Smart Move® Vertical is now
ready for use.

Vertical and

Vertical DMX fit in the
iris slot of the Altman Shakespeare
and ETC Source Four Ellipsoidal
lighting fixtures. Both units come
with a load rated safety ring in the
upper corner. It is recommended
that an industry approved safety
cable be attached to this ring and
to a fixed object nearby such as
a truss, house pipe or catwalk.
This is particularly important when
operating the Smart Move

Vertical
or Smart Move

Vertical DMX in
any orientation other than vertical.
