DIMMER /SHUTTER SECTION
This section contains the controls for light beam characteristics: INTENSITY, my means of the DIMMER, and
STROBE EFFECT, using the variable speed SHUTTER.
Note that the action of the slider for this section depends on the position of the Dimmer/Strobe selector. When the
Dimmer LED is on, the slider adjusts the intensity of the beam. When the Strobe LED is on, the slider controls the
strobe effect speed.
The two Blackout keys on both sides of the DIMMER / SHUTTER SECTION open or close the shutter
instantaneously. This function has priority over the other keys in this section, when the black-out function is active
the LED over the two blackout keys flashes.
When the blackout LED is flashing, just press any one of the two blackout keys and the projector will return to
either dimmer or strobe status (depending on the position of the dimmer/strobe selector).
IRIS SECTION
This section provides beam DIAMETER controls.
Beam diameter is controlled directly with the slider. The beam is blocked completely when the slider is
set to 0. Press the Open key to open or close the iris immediately. The beam can be opened to the
desired diameter using the slider.
FOCUS SECTION
By pressing one of two keys (“+” or “-“), the beam can be perfectly focused at the desired distance.
SPECIAL FUNCTION
Tracer function, as the name suggest, concerns the beam positioning.
HOW IT WORKS: when the blackout key is pressed, the Blackout and Tracer LED flash simultaneously. In fact, the
TRACER function only works when the projector is in BLACKOUT mode.
At this point, when the TRACER key is pressed and held down, the IRIS is at the minimum aperture and the
DIMMER starts opening at minimum speed. In this phase the TRACER key directly controls the dimmer.
Keeping the key pressed, light intensity increases, When the key is released, intensity decreases, As a result, the
operator can easily get exactly the right intensity for undetectable tracing.
Once the projector has been correctly positioned, simply pressing the Blackout key the beam instantly is on target
with the preset light intensity and beam diameter.
