ETC Installation Guide
ColorSource PAR v1.7
Installation
Emergency Lighting Considerations
Luminaires that are used in emergency lighting applications must provide a
minimum illumination level over the identified means of egress path in
accordance with the Life Safety Code
®
, NFPA 101. A luminaire that is intended
to serve this purpose must be mounted at a height where it will not readily be
subjected to tampering by unauthorized personnel and where the minimum
required illumination level over the egress path can be achieved. The ETC
DMX Emergency Bypass Controller that is driving the luminaire upon loss of
utility power must be programmed to drive the ColorSource PAR to full
illumination.
Mounting
The ColorSource PAR ships with a standard yoke for mounting with a clamp.
An expandable floor stand yoke is available as an optional accessory. Contact
your local dealer for more information.

Safety Cable
A safety cable (or other approved safety device)

leave as little slack as possible in the safety cable
to avoid catching the yoke of the fixture.
