BEAM-4/RGBW 

 

Maintenance 

The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are to be 
inspected by an expert after every year in the course of an acceptance test. 
The operator has to make sure that safety-related and machine-technical installations are to be 
inspected by a skilled person once a year. 
 
The following points have to be considered during the inspection: 
01)

 

All screws used for installing the device or parts of the device have to be tightly connected and 
must not be corroded. 

02)

 

There may not be any deformations on housings, fixations and installation spots. 

03)

 

Mechanically moving parts like axles, eyes and others may not show any traces of wearing. 

04)

 

The electric power supply cables must not show any damages or material fatigue. 

 

The 

BEAM-4/

RGBW requires almost no maintenance. However, you should keep the unit clean.  

Otherwise, the fixture’s light-output will be significantly reduced. Disconnect the mains power supply, and 
then wipe the cover with a damp cloth. Do not immerse in liquid. Wipe lens clean with glass cleaner and 
a soft cloth. Do not use alcohol or solvents. 
The front lens will require weekly cleaning, as smoke-fluid tends to build up residues, reducing the light-
output very quickly. 
The cooling-fans, color-wheel, the gobo wheel, the gobos and the internal lenses should be cleaned 
monthly, with a soft brush. 
Please clean internal components once a year with a light brush and vacuum cleaner.  
Keep connections clean. Disconnect electric power, and then wipe the DMX and audio connections 
with a damp cloth. Make sure connections are thoroughly dry before linking equipment or supplying 
electric power. 

 

Replacing the Fuse 

Power surges, short-circuit or inappropriate electrical power supply may cause a fuse to burn out. If the 
fuse burns out, the product will not function whatsoever. If this happens, 

follow the directions below to do 

so.

 

01)

 

Unplug the unit from electric power source

02)

 

Insert a screwdriver into the slot in the fuse cover. 

Turn the fuse holder counterclockwise. 

The fuse will 

come out

03)

 

Remove the used fuse. If brown or unclear, it is burned out

04)

 

Insert the replacement fuse into the holder where the old fuse was. Reinsert the fuse holder. Be sure 
to 

use a fuse of the same type and specification. See the product specification label for details. 

 

Troubleshooting 

This troubleshooting guide is meant to help solve simple problems.  
If a problem occurs, carry out the steps below in sequence until a solution is found. Once the unit 
operates properly, do not carry out following steps. 
 

No Light 

If the light effect does not operate properly, refer servicing to a technician. 
Response: Suspect three potential problem areas as: the power supply, the lamp, the fuse. 
01)

 

Power supply. Check that the unit is plugged into an appropriate power supply. 

02)

 

The LED. Return the

RGBW to your 

IMG Stage Line

 dealer. 

03)

 

The fuse. Replace the fuse. See page 25 for replacing the fuse. 

04)

 

If all of the above appears to be O.K., plug the unit in again.  

05)

 

If you are unable to determine the cause of the problem, do not open the 

BEAM-4/RGBW

, as this may 

damage the unit and the warranty will become void. 

06)

 

Return the device to your
