Powering Up
Power Up and Configuration Procedure
Since Lamp On is the default state, the lamp will strike when the luminaire is powered up for the first
time. When AC power is applied and the luminaire’s power switch is in the "On" position, the
luminaire will immediately begin a calibration sequence that steps it through pan and tilt movements.
The internal color, gobo, and beam mechanisms will also move through a full range of motion. After
calibration, the luminaire head will either stop at its "home" position (which positions the pan axis at
mid-rotation and the head parallel to the yoke with the lens pointing away from the luminaire upper
enclosure) or move to its current DMX-defined position if DMX data is present. All internal
mechanisms also move to their "home" or DMX-defined positions.
Subsequently, depending on the luminaire’s setting for Lamp Power-Up State (refer to “VL3515 Menu
System Function Chart” on page 71 ), when power is applied, the arc lamp will either a) "strike" or
ignite - Lamp On ( default) , b) await calibration completion and then strike - Cal On, or c) await
manual command to strike - Lamp Off.
CAUTION: Before applying power, be sure the luminaire is hung or positioned so that the head and
yoke can move freely without restriction.
To power up:
• At each luminaire, apply power by switching power switch to " I " (ON) position. Luminaire will
automatically step through following procedure:
a. If Lamp Power-Up State is set to Lamp On, lamp will strike (ignite).
b. Luminaire will cycle through calibration and stop at "home" position.
c. If Lamp Power-Up State is set to Cal On, lamp will strike (ignite) at end of calibration
sequence.
