Setting the PAN middle position:
The middle position normally is the position in which the lamp is
used most
.
You should start with the pan axis in the
current adjusted
middle position. If you do not
know if this is the case, power up the device and set the DMX-channel for position to 50%.
Do not forget to set the speed value to 100%. Channels are 1 (position) and 5 (speed) at
factory presettings.
Let yoke move onto this positions. After that the middle position can be set. Exert the
tripping lever
(see picture). Turn the yoke
carefully
on its arms onto the desired middle
position. Keep the tripping lever hold until desired position is reached.
Pan tripping lever
For understanding:
Because of exerting the tripping lever, the motoryoke remains
internally
on its middle position. The absolute value device does not join in turning
anymore. You turn the yoke around this internal middle position.
Testing
of the new setting: Change the DMX-value of the PAN-axle for a few seconds,
after that set it back to 50%. The motoryoke moves to its new middle position. The rough
position is now programmed. In menu P05, PAN-axle middle position, page 29 the fine
adjustment can be done.
The
moving angle
can be set in menu
P11, PAN-axle moving range, page 31
. It can be in
a range within 1 and 185°. Recommended is 90°.
Caution !!
Check the
entire moving
range of the lamp:
The lamp-manufacturer specify
minimum distances
to inflammable materials. Never fall
below the minimum distance in no position of the lamp!
Make sure that no cable will be
broken
,
bended
,
stretched
or
damaged
anyhow by
reason of turning the motoryoke!
