Lamp Alignment How-To 

Often, after a new installation of a lamp, you will find that there is 

an uneven field of light or what is referred to as a hot spot. This is 

due to the most intense point of the lamp source not being 

positioned optimally within the reflector. 

There are three lamp alignment screws S2 provided at the base 

of the projector head. Turning these screws allow you to optimize 

the projection quality of the spot as well as the overall intensity of 

the beam. 

1.  Project a white spot against any flat surface. Preferably the 

surface should be white or pastel in color. 

2.  Turning the lamp alignment screws, try to position the hot 

spot in the center of the beam as best as possible. This 
could require many attempts on your part.  

3.  Once the hot spot is in the center of the spot, do your 

best to turn all screws equally as to affect movement up or 
down within the reflector. 

4.  As you move in and out of optimum lamp focus, you will see 

the hot spot either gets wider or narrower. The goal is to 
either totally diminish the hot spot by having it widen and 
spread across the entire spot or moving the hot spot so that 
it covers as much of the beam spot area as possible. 

Power 

Your product is equipped with switch-selectable AC power setting.  

Warning! 

Verify that the power select switch on your unit matches the line voltage applied. All 
fixtures must be connected to circuits with a suitable Earth Ground.  

 

 

To determine the power requirements for a particular fixture, see the label 
affixed to the back plate of the fixture or refer to the fixture’s specifications 
chart.  

 

A fixture’s listed current rating is its average current draw under normal 
conditions.  

 

All fixtures must be powered directly off a switched circuit and cannot be run off a 
rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel is 
used solely for a 0% to 100% switch.  

 

Before applying power to a fixture, check that the source voltage matches the fixture’s 
requirement.  

 

All fixtures must be connected to circuits with a suitable Earth Ground.
