Routine Maintenance
Fixture Cleaning
The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out
periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in
which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or particularly dirty surroundings can cause
greater accumulation of dirt on the unit’s optics.
Clean with soft, damp cloth.
Always dry the parts carefully.
Clean the external optics at least every 20 days.
Use an air compressor (oil-free) on electronics vacuum to clean the fan inlets and outlets
when you notice they are dusty or dirty. Like any other electronics fan, always use an ob-
ject to block the fan from spinning while you clean it, and blow air so that the dirt blows out
of the fixture!
Troubleshooting Problems
The following are a few common problems that may occur during operation. Here are
some suggestions for easy troubleshooting:
A. The unit does not work and you do not hear any fans running
when it’s plugged in:
•
Check that the unit is plugged in to a working power outlet.
•
Press the menu button to confirm that the unit is powered on. If the screen does
not light up, the unit has no power.
B. Not Responding to the DMX Controller
•
Check DMX cables to verify that they are plugged in and functional.
