After having followed the preceding steps, turn on the power to the unit.
If you have chosen to control the
iCyc 250
using a DMX 512 controller, you should always turn on the power to the controller first.
The fixture will perform a reset function on its internal motors. This will last some few seconds, after which it will be subject to the
external signal from the controller.
Software version
On powering up, the led display of the projector will display the currently installed software version for a few seconds.
For example, it may show:
R 2.01
(software version 2.01).
Ventilation
The projector is fitted with 2 fans for forced cooling of the unit.
The two fans are directly controlled by the onboard software and may be switched off on powering up, depending upon the set-
tings shown in the display. They may never be switched off when the lamp is turned on.
To turn on the fans, you will need to either alter the settings via the display panel, as described in section 11.2, or turn on the lamp.
DMX 512 signal reception
After the software version has been displayed, the projector will proceed with its reset function. On completion of this, the display
will remain static on, indicating that the projector is correctly receiving
DMX 512
signal.
A001
(dmx address 001).
If the display flashes, the projector is not receiving signal correctly. Check the cabling and the functioning of the controller.
turning on the power with no dmx signal connected
After the display has shown the software version, the projector will perform a reset. When completed, the display will flash to indi-
cate the absence of

control signal.
