The VARI
❋
LITE VL1100 ERS luminaire,
borne from the very popular VL1000 ERS
luminaire, combines the functionality of one
of the most popular conventional lighting
tools — the ellipsoidal reflector spotlight —
with the versatility of an automated
luminaire. All VL1100 models have
undergone design enhancements to provide
more quiet and fluid operation.
Automated functions include CYM color
mixing, rotating gobos (gobos/patterns sold
separately), variable diffusion and a zoom
lens that ranges from 19˚ to 36˚ for normal
imaging and a super zoom function that
ranges to 70˚. A new 50 kHz. drive system
quiets all two-phase motors both when
moving and static. A central bearing system
in the gobo wheel reduces noise and
ensures smooth operation of the
mechanism. Additionally, new, three-phase,
ultra quiet stepper motors provide for
smoother and quieter pan and tilt operation.
Models VL1100AI and VL1100AS deliver
more than 15,000 lumens with the higher
color temperature of the 575 watt arc
source. These models also include a
mechanical dimmer and a truss-mounted,
fanless ballast.
The VL1100AS model includes an
automated, four-blade shutter mechanism
that provides control of all shutter functions
popular in conventional ellipsoidal reflector
spotlights. The VL1100AI model includes a
beam size iris.

Programmable Functions
Zoom Optics:
Continuously variable field angle in imaging range from 19˚ to 36˚, super zoom angles to 70˚ is
programmable over a timed range of 2 seconds to 20 minutes.
Color Mixing System:
A fully cross-fading CYM color system. All motors utilize a noise reducing, 50kHz. drive system that
quiets operation during movement and also while static.
Diffusion:
Field or gobo can be continuously and smoothly diffused to wash.
Dimmer:
A coated glass dimmer wheel provides full-field dimming designed for smooth timed fades.
Rotating Gobo Wheel:
Six position rotating gobo wheel with a central bearing system, five rotatable and indexable gobo
positions plus open. (Patterns are not included with the fixture.)
Shutter (Framing Models):
Four-blade system can frame and crop beam field and gobos. Each individual shutter is
capable of translating to beam center while also rotating ±35˚. Entire shutter rotates ±45˚.
Beam Size Control (Iris Models):
In addition to the zoom optics, a mechanical iris provides continuous beam size control for
both rapid changes and smooth timed beam angle changes.
Pan and Tilt:
Smooth, timed continuous motion using three phase, ultra quiet stepper motors with encoder correction.
Pan range is 540˚; tilt is 270˚. Resolution is 0.
3
˚. Unit will calibrate to support close hangs (yoke-to-yoke).
