Maintenance

 

The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are to be 
inspected by an expert after every four years in the course of an acceptance test. 
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating 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: 

1.

 

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

2.

 

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

3.

 

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

4.

 

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

 

The Showtec Compact Studiobeam 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. 
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. 

 

Troubleshooting 

 

No Light 

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. 
If the light effect does not operate properly, refer servicing to a technician. 
Response: Suspect two potential problem areas: the power supply, the LEDs. 

1.

 

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

2.

 

The LEDs. Return the Mini StudioBeam to your Showtec dealer. 

3.

 

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

4.

 

If you are unable to determine the cause of the problem, do not open the Mini StudioBeam, as this 
may damage the unit and the warranty will become void. 

5.

 

Return the device to your Showtec dealer.  

 
 

No Response to DMX 

Response: Suspect the DMX cable or connectors, a controller malfunction, a light effect DMX card 
malfunction. 

1.

 

Check the DMX setting. Make sure that DMX addresses are correct. 

2.

 

Check the DMX cable: Unplug the unit; change the DMX cable; then reconnect to electrical power. 
Try your DMX control again. 

3.

 

Determine whether the controller or light effect is at fault. Does the controller operate properly with 
other DMX products ? If not, take the controller in for repair. If so, take the DMX cable and the light 
effect to a qualified technician.
