to property or personal injury resulting from an improperly
suspended installation!
The suspended installation of this lighting effect must be car-
ried out by trained and professional staff!
The suspended installation of this lighting effect necessitates
a suitable suspension system!
The suspended installation of this lighting must only be car-
ried out with the appropriate materials!
The lighting effect must never be fixed swinging freely in the
room.
Please ensure that the fixing screws on the installation arm
are adequately tightened.
Observe the regulations if the product is used for commercial
operation. Consider the EN 60589-2-17.
No individuals should linger underneath the lighting effect
during suspended installation!
It is a must to install this device with a second independent
fixture. Such second fixture must guarantee in the event of
failure of the main fixture that no assembly parts will fall
down.
The light effect unit must be attached via a certified hook to
a tie-bar system.
It must be ensured that an expert inspects the mechanical
and safety-relevant installation prior to the initial operation
and following major modifications, prior to the renewed ope-
ration.
It must be ensured that an expert inspects the mechanical
and safety-relevant installation at least once a year.
It must be ensured that an expert inspects the mechanical in-
stallation and the installation of relevance to safety within the
framework of an acceptance test at least every four years.
The installation fixture must be as such that it can withstand
for a period of 60 minutes 10 times the load capacity without
harmful deformation.
It is prohibited for any individual to unnecessarily stay or pass
beneath the installation during any type of assembly work.
The light effect unit must be secured by a safety arrester
cable if fly-mounted. The cable must withstand 12 times the
weight of the light effect unit. Use arrester cables equipped
with quick closing links. The dropping distance must not ex-
ceed 20 cm.
Defect arrester cables or arrester cables that have already
been exposed to stress must not be used.
When choosing the location for the installation, the audito-
rium and show laser perimeter must be defined in advance.
Install the laser as such that it is projected at a minimum
height of 3.5 mtr.
The laser must only be projected within the show laser peri-
meter. The show laser perimeter is a danger zone that results
from the operation of the show laser. Stipulated limitations
may be exceeded in this zone. This area must be unattainab-
le for unauthorised individuals.
The show laser perimeter must only be accessed when ab-
solutely necessary and while observing the safety measures.
The limits for radiation must never be exceeded for the au-
ditorium.
The show laser perimeter must be measured and calculated
prior to operation. Keep the laser zone as small as possible.
Radiation must never extend further than necessary.
To adjust the laser, first loosen the fixing screws on the instal-
lation arm and bring the laser into the desired position.
Run all projection images of the laser to ensure that all pat-
terns are projected within the show laser perimeter only. Also,
check for reflecting or shiny surfaces in the laser’s projection
area (e.g. mirror balls). If necessary, remove reflecting or de-
flecting objects.
Then tighten the fixing screws. The laser beam must never be
freely adjustable without the use of tools.
Operation
ATTENTION:
RISK OF HEALTH!
First connect the mains plug to an outlet.
Operating the product for the first time may generate smoke
and odour; this is not a defect. Avoid dis/connecting the pro-
duct repeatedly and quickly from/with mains! Always wait a
few minutes prior to the next dis/connection!
CAUTION! HAZARD TO HEALTH!
Never look into the light source during operation. People pro-
ne to sensitivity may suffer an epileptic fit!
The Scanic Quattro Scan R/G offers a variety of operation modes
which can be set using the DIP switch to the back of the device.
The DIP switch assignment for the selection of the operating
modes is as follows:
Stand-Alone-Modus
Music Control
To operate the music control mode set the DIP switches to the
“Off” position as listed in the DIP switch assignment table.
Use the sensitivity controller to set the laser’s sensitivity via
the microphone to the music’s low frequencies.
Auto Mode
To operate in Auto Mode set the DIP switch 1 to the “On” po-
sition and all other switches to the “Off” position as listed in
the DIP switches assignment table. The laser will then run a
programme automatically.
DMX Mode
To operate in DMX mode, all Scanic devices must be connec-
ted using a conventional 3-pole DMX cord (XLR).
Connect the output of the first device with the input of the
second device; the output of the second device with the input
of the third device, etc.
ATTENTION!
In a DMX chain, the DMX cable of the last device should be
closed with a load resistor. To do so, connect an XLR plug to
the DMX output of the last device. A resistor with 120 ohms
should be soldered between the -signal and the +signal.
Then address your laser according to the dip switch assign-
ment table. Please note that the laser has 5 channels.
To assign channel 6 to your laser, bring the dip switch 2 (va-
lue 2) and dip switch 3 (value 4) into the position “on” (2 + 4
= 6). The laser is assigned to the channels 6 to 9.
DMX Protocol
To reinforce the laser effects Scanic recommends the use of
a fog machine. Please observe that the room must not be
oversaturated as otherwise the laser beam will be drowned
in the fog.
After the end of operation disconnect the device from mains.
