INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing the Hercules800e !
The Hercules800e projects, thanks to an extremely efficient optic system (PATENT PENDING), a powerful light beam which can create
numberless color shades. Its performances, in terms of luminousity and lighted surfaces, can reach incredible levels.
New concept optical system (WxH 40°x45° or 45°x40°) with rotating parabole to illuminate the surface with maximum horizontal or
vertical beam opening
The Hercules800e comes in unique version:
• Art. 0305 HERCULES 800E
The Hercules800e can work in automatic mode or in synchro mode, otherwise may be controlled by 8 bit DMX controllers
The input protocol is the DMX 512. To drive the Hercules800e we suggest to use either our controller Control Show 512, Fancy or
the Easy Control.
To make the most of its possibilites and for a correct functioning of this unit in the years to come, we suggest you to read carefully
this manual before connecting or putting the spot into use. By doing so you will gain experience with its commands and connections
and you will be easily able to use it.
