Pacific Operation Manual

Version 4 October 2010
Operating your luminaire
Please note that as the handles and knobs on the Pacific range can reach high temperatures
depending on the position or orientation of the luminaire, and that gloves should always be
worn when focusing these luminaires.
Pan and Tilt Adjustment
To pan the luminaire, loosen the nut at the top of the yoke and adjust, then retighten. To tilt, loosen
the locking clamp handle on the side of the luminaire, tilt and retighten finger tight. Note that the
maximum tilt angles for the Pacific are 90
either side of horizontal.
Focusing Pacific Zoomspot models
The beam of the Pacific can be adjusted to a well controlled soft-
edged focus useful when merging one beam to the next, or to a
hard-edged focus useful for projections, specials, etc. The variable
beam of your Pacific luminaire is altered by adjusting the front or
rear lens in relation to each other. The front lens defines the beam
spread; the rear, the focus degree of "softness" or "sharpness" of
the beam edge or shutters.
To focus your Zoomspot, first define the beam size required using
the front lens. Then set the hardness/ softness of the beam with
the focus lens.
Finger tight pressure only is necessary to lock the lens off in their chosen positions.
Shutter System
The shutters are used to mask a portion of the beam, shaping it, masking light off scenery, curtains, etc. Note
that on the Pacific range of luminaires, the shutters are not removable. The shutter assembly can be rotated
by loosening the shutter assembly knob on the back of the lens tube, and twisting to the desired position.
Refasten the knob. Loosen the lamphouse locking knob, and rotate the lamphouse until the top of the heat
shield is horizontal. Tighten the lamphouse locking knob.
NOTE: Do not run the luminaire with all the shutters closed, as this may cause the luminaire to over-
heat
Accessory mounting positions
The Pacific range provides good image projection right across the beam. The rotatable gobo holder comprises
the holder and a spring clip to hold the pattern flat against the holder. The holder can be rotated in the slot to
align the image as required on the stage.
NOTE:
The Pacific range has several different pattern holders:
Gobo holder for 'M' size patterns (5.5-13, 7.5-19 &12-28 Zoomspot)
19PACGHM
Gobo holder for 'M' size Glass patterns (5.5-13, 7.5-19 & 12-28 Zoomspot)
19PACGHMG
Gobo holder for 'A' size patterns (23-50, 45-75 and Fixed Beams)
19ACGHA
Gobo holder for 'A' size Glass patterns (23-50, 45-75 and Fixed Beams)
19ACGHAG
Gobo holder for 'B' size patterns (14-35 Zoomspot)
19ACGHB
Gobo holder for 'B' size Glass patterns (14-35 Zoomspot)
19ACGHBG
Gobo holder for plastic transparencies

Note that when a ‘B’ size gobo is used in a 12-28, 5.5-13 or 7.5-19 Zoomspot, only 60% of the image area will
be projected due to the 50mm (2”) gate size. When a ‘B’ size gobo is used in a 23-50 Zoomspot or Fixed
Beam unit, part of the light beam will be wasted.
