7.1 Starting the device
CAUTION!
Risk of injury due to movements of the device
The head of the device can move quickly (pan, tilt) and can produce
very bright light. This is also valid immediately after you turn on the
device, when the device operates in automatic mode or under remote
control and when you turn off a DMX controller that is connected to the
device. Persons staying near the device could be injured or frightened.
Before you turn on the device and during the operation, always ensure
that nobody stays close to the device. If work has to be performed in the
area of movement or in the near vicinity of the device, it must remain
turned off.
Connect the device to the power supply to start operation. After a few seconds, the
fans start to work, the head moves to the home positions for rotation (pan) and incli‐
nation (tilt). The device is now operational.
