Specifications
The unit shall be an integrally designed, remote-controlled, automated
ellipsoidal reflector spot luminaire. An integral enclosure/pan tube supports
the luminaire with provisions for two hooks. The pan tube serves as an
interconnection point for power and data. Low noise fans shall provide
forced-air cooling for internal components as required during extreme
operating conditions. Fans shall be thermostatically controlled and will
remain off during normal usage and ambient conditions. The rear cap
provides three-point lamp adjustment and easy access to the lamp for
replacement.
An AC input connector and two, five-pin DMX512 compatible connectors (in
and through) are provided. The unit can be controlled by a wide variety of
DMX512 consoles.
Each unit shall be equipped with a high-speed processor providing diagnostic
and self-calibration functions as well as internal test routines and software
update capabilities. A yoke arm mounted panel and display provide the user
interface.
The unit shall contain independent, three-phase, ultra quiet stepper motors to
provide movement of the head through 540˚ in the horizontal plane (pan) and
270˚ in the vertical plane (tilt). The luminaire calibrates to minimize hanging
distances.
A zooming multi-element optical system shall provide continuous focus of
gobo images for field angles from 19˚ to 36˚. A super zoom function provides
field angles to 70˚. Independent control of edge is provided.
A CYM color mixing system shall provide for a broad range of user color
selection. A variable diffusion stage is also included. This stage provides
controlled reduction of the contrast ratio of imagery and beam edges. The
effect is a continuous transition from spotlight to floodlight. A noise reducing,
50 kHz. drive system shall quiet the operation of all two-phase motors in the
luminaire both when moving and static.
A six-position gobo wheel with five rotatable, indexable gobo positions and
one open position shall be included. A central bearing system in the gobo
wheel shall provide quiet and smooth operation of mechanism. Gobos are
easily installed and removed. Use of glass or metal patterns is acceptable. (A
wide selection of gobos is available from Vari-Lite.)
Framing shutter models shall contain four shutter blades that translate
radially across the beam. Each individual shutter is capable of translating to
beam center while also rotating ±35˚. The framing shutter mechanism
rotates as a unit ±45˚.
Iris models shall contain a beam size iris suitable for producing narrow
beams and cropping gobos.
The unit is ETL and ETLc certified and CE marked. The unit's exterior finish
shall be available in black or white. Custom colors may be special ordered.
