Installation and connection requirements
Now that you know how the ERO Motion Heads 1W works, it's important to know how to use it correctly and
safely, according to the installation and connection requirements.
Make sure the device and connection cables are out of reach of children, and that if children are present,
they are under adult supervision at all times. Because this device can be used upright or suspended,
children could pull on the cables, causing the device to fall on top of them. To avoid injury, it is important to
pay close attention to the position and/or installation of this device.
Upright use
If you want to use the ERO Motion Heads 1W in an upright position, ensure that it is placed on a stable
surface like a table, DJ booth or T-bar. The ERO Motion Heads 1W is equipped with rubber feet that grip
suitable surfaces.
Suspended use (brackets)
When you want to suspend the ERO Motion Heads 1W, attach the supplied mounting bracket to the top of
this device and use the included mounting materials.
If you want to mount a half coupler or a G-hook to the brackets, it is advised to do this before mounting the
brackets to the armature. You can find standard hooks and/or brackets for 35 or 50mm tubes (truss or light
stand) at your local dealer.
Hardware for mounting the ERO Motion Heads 1W to the wall, ceiling, or beam is not included. Contact a
specialist if you're not sure which hardware is required for your situation. A wooden beam and stone wall
require different mounting methods.
Should you want to suspend the ERO Motion Heads 1W, you will need to attach a safety cable to the
armature. This is not included, but is available at your local dealer. The ERO Motion Heads 1W is equipped
with an eyelet for hooking safety cable. Once it's hooked on, you can wrap the cable around the truss or light
stand and attach it again by means of the same hook. This ensures the device is secured and prevents it
from falling, even if one or both of the brackets should come loose.
Ensure that the safety cable has a load capacity of 10x the weight of the armature and that the device can
not fall farther than 30 cm. You can wrap the safety cable around the truss or light stand several times to
ensure the fall is as short as possible. The shorter the fall, the less chance of damage or injury.
Light source
The ERO Motion Heads 1W contains powerful LED modules that create an even more powerful effect thanks
to a special lens that bundles the beams together. Never look directly into the lens at close range, as the
human eye can't adjust to the sudden intensity of the beam of light this device produces. It won't result in
permanent damage, but it can cause temporary blind spots, which may cause disorientation and discomfort.
Cooling
The ERO Motion Heads 1W is cooled by fans that are installed in the head and in the housing. These will be
activated when the device is turned on. Make sure the fans and vents are not blocked and regularly check
that they are functioning normally. Be aware that should the fans suck in substances like dust, smoke and
moisture, this may impair their operation and shorten the life of the device.
Parts and repair
This product does not include spare parts and can not be repaired by the user. All inspections and overall
maintenance should be done by a specialist.
Cleaning and maintenance
Clean the exterior of this device monthly with a dry, or slightly damp microfibre cloth. Ensure that the device
is unplugged before cleaning it.
