Connection Cables
Take care of the connector cables, always holding them by the connectors and avoiding knots and
twists when coiling them: This gives the advantage of increasing their life and reliability, which is always to
your advantage. Periodically check that your cables are in good condition, that they are correctly wired
and that all their contacts are perfectly efficient: a great number of problems are caused entirely by
using unsuitable or faulty cables.
Maintenance
The Spectral CYC2000 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. Wipe the front glass panel clean with glass cleaner and a soft
cloth. Do not use alcohol or solvents. The front glass panel will require weekly cleaning, as smoke-fluid
tends to build up residues, reducing the light-output very quickly.
Do not immerse in liquid.
Keep connections clean. Disconnect electric power, and then wipe the DMX connections
with a damp cloth. Make sure connections are thoroughly dry before linking equipment or supplying
electric power.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are to be
