Shutting Down the Fixture
Recommended Shutdown Options
There are two recommended ways to shutdown the fixture:
1. A DMX controller can shut down the fixture’s motion controls and projector remotely with
the shutdown option of the control channel (see Fixture Operations on page 120).
2. The DL.2 fixture automatically shuts down in the event of DMX data loss. The default time is
10 min. To edit the length of time the fixture waits for a DMX input before shutting down,
use the CMA (see Editing Configuration Values on page 144), or the fixture’s menu system,
(see Set_Fixture Screen on page 28).
Placing Fixture in Road Case
Before shipping the DL.2 fixture, lock its pan and tilt
position so the fixture does not move during transit.
To lock the fixture:
1. Orient the projector head pan position as
shown for packing in the road case and secure
with the pan lock located on the yoke base.
Note: This is the only pan position that locks.
2. Move the tilt lock peg to the upper left (locked)
position.
3. Gently move the projector head and yoke to
verify that both pan and tilt positions are locked
in place.
WARNING:
Removing power directly without the shutdown sequence built
into the two recommended procedures can severely reduce
fixture reliability.
