Manual Operation
The Ballast operates remote from the fixture. Connect the Extension cable
to the Ballast and the Lamp Harness. After the lamps are properly installed,
the Ballast can be turned on. Each switch controls one lamp. The color
bands on the lamp harness correspond to the switches as illustrated.
Lamp Select Feature
The Mega Ballasts have an
HO/Std
switch. Set the selector switch to
HO
for
High Output and
Std
for Standard light output.
When operating 8ft or 6ft lamps in high ambient temperature or where the
units are rigged into place with restricted airflow, the
Std
setting can be used
to lower the color temperature and remove any green spike. The light drops
about a half f-stop in exposure when dropping from
HO
to
Std
.
