MOUNTING YOUR FIXTURE
Your fixture uses a theatre lamp with a grid filament. To avoid premature lamp failure it is
essential that the fixture is always mounted so the yoke is horizontal and with the lamp
base down, i.e. the lamp adjustment knob is at the bottom of the rear lamp plate.
Rama
6” Fresnel and PC / Rama 7” Fresnel and PC
To mount on the theatre standard scaffold pipe (
2” O.D.) use a theatre hookclamp (G
clamp) (Order Code: 20HC). Your fixture is supplied with a 12mm set screw, washers and
a nut. Thread the set screw through the yoke from the inside, put on a washer, then the
hookclamp, another washer and then do up finger tight with the nut. To mount on a
telescopic stand, reverse the yoke under the luminaire
and bolt the stand’s spigot onto the
12mm set screw.
Rama
6” FFT Fresnel and PC, Rama 6” FFT HP Fresnel and PC
To mount on the theatre standard scaffold pipe (
2” O.D.) Use a Mega Clamp or similar.
Your fixture is supplied with a FFT pan grip control to facilitate fast adjustment. Place
the Mega Clamp into the top of the FFT pan grip control, and fasten onto the central
shaft thread. Do not use a washer between the clamp and the pan control. Lock the
Mega Clamp into place with the guides
. For further information refer to the separate
sheet provided with the FFT Pan Grip control.
SAFETY CHAIN
A safety chain MUST always be used when rigging fixtures on bars, ladders etc. The Rama has an integral
safety bond that can be retracted into the fixture when not in use. To use the safety chain, unscrew the safety
chain locking clamp located on the top of the lamphouse, pull the clip out from the rear of the lamphouse, and
loop the safety chain around the bar fastening the clip onto the safety chain. Be careful to allow sufficient
slack to enable the fixture to be focussed freely. To replace the safety chain, remove the rear lamphouse
molding, slide out the safety chain locking clamp, and pull out the safety chain, taking care to retain the safety
chain loop bar. Reverse the process with a new safety chain. Replace only with the approved Safety Chains
available from Selecon or your distributor.
WARNING
: the integrated safety chain will get very hot during use, please take care in handling when the luminaire is on.
Please be careful to allow sufficient slack to allow the luminaire to be focused freely.
FOCUSING
Rama
6” Fresnel and PC, Rama 7” Fresnel and PC
The variable beam of the Rama is altered by adjusting the position of the lamp / reflector
assembly relative to the lens. Finger tight pressure only is necessary to lock the lamp / reflector
assembly off in the chosen positions. A beam angle reference scale is provided to prefocus the
fixture if desired.
When focusing, first spot the beam down, position the fixture and then flood the beam to cover the area required. The
beam can then be shaped using the barndoors (Order Code: 20BDSF12).
Rama
6” FFT Fresnel and PC, Rama 7” FFT HP Fresnel and PC
The variable beam of the Rama is altered by adjusting the position of the lamp / reflector assembly relative to the lens.
The Rama is suppled with an FFT focus assembly to facilitate fast adjustment. To adjust the beam angle of the Rama,
squeeze the focus grip and slide to the position required. Release the focus grip to lock the focus. A beam angle
reference scale is provided to prefocus the fixture if desired.
When focusing, first spot the beam down, position the fixture and then flood the beam to cover the area required. The
beam can then be shaped using the barndoors.
