TIP:
When screwing on the Collar, place one finger from each hand on
the machined flats and slowly rotate the collar, keeping even pressure
on both fingers. This helps the threads to engage evenly and prevents
binding and cross threading. If you are having difficulties getting the
thread to “catch,” slowly spin the Collar CCW while continuing to apply
gentle even pressure, then reverse back to CW until the threading
begins.
4. Repeat this process for both gobo wheels.
NOTE:
When using Apollo gobos
Apollo Design manufactures a non-standard “B” sized gobo which has
an 80mm diameter. Rosco BeltDriveFx rotators can accept these smaller
gobos provided you keep a few considerations in mind. The underside of
the Threaded Collar which hold gobos in place has been machined with an
80mm recessed lip. To install an Apollo 80mm gobo, you must insure that
the gobo sits in the center of the gobo mounting ring as the Threaded Col-
lar slowly tightens down. Slight wiggling of the gobo during this process
helps to find the center recessed ridge.
5. INSTALLATION, POWER AND DATA CONNECTIONS
The RevoPRO™ has been engineered to fit into the bodies of most modern el-
lipsoidal luminaires including ETC Source Four, ETC S4 Zoom, Selecon Pacific,
Selecon Pacific Zoom, Altman Shakespeare and Strand SL among others.
1. Insert RevoPRO™ into the iris slot of the luminaire with the motor box
facing forward, towards the lens.
Inserting the rotator in the opposite orientation will cause the motor
box to interfere with the shutter handles.
It may be necessary to angle the yoke of the luminaire back to allow
access into the accessory iris slot.
On certain luminaires, the sliding cover over the iris slot may have to be
removed to allow the RevoPRO™ to fit properly.
Note: When installing into a Selecon Pacific luminaire, align the groove
in the edge of the RevoPRO™ body with the rear-most tab of the Iris
Slot.
2. When seated fully and completely, the gobo wheel should be centered
in the lens tube. If necessary, remove the lens tube and visually confirm
that the rotator is seated and aligned properly. It is important that
the aperture of the gobo rotator be centered in the optical path of the
