SOFT FOCUS LENS ADAPTER
The Soft Focus Lens Adapter is a pattern holder with a special holographic lens material. This
accessory allows the LED fixture to behave like a conventional ellipsoidal when using a soft focus.
When inserted in the gobo slot (iris slot for zoom lens), the matte side of the material should face
the light source and the shiny side should face the lens barrel. NOTE: To avoid damage to the
material do not add metal gobos in the same pattern holder.
ACCESORY INSTRUCTIONS
Accessory Retaining Latch:
This unique retaining hatch is designed for positive locking and
manual return.
1. Following label on accessory cover, slide cover to side and lift
up. Note: Cover will be in LOCKED open position.
2. Insert desired accessory.
3. To close cover, you must (a) rst move cover to side to
UNLOCK and (b) lower cover to original position.
Drop In Iris Slot: This larger slot can accept either a drop in iris
or motorized pattern device (ie. gobo rotator). This slot has a
retractable cover in order to prevent light leak when not in use.
This cover should be closed as far as possible when the slot is in
use. To avoid damage when in use always place the at side
toward the shutters.

CLEANING AND CARE
WARNING! All cleaning should be performed with power completely removed from the luminaire. Never remove protective covers
when luminaire is powered. Wear appropriate protective eye wear and gloves when cleaning the fixture. All service and mainte-
nance, other than described herein, should be performed by a qualified technician or Authorized Service Center.
• Lint free lens tissue
• Lint or powder free gloves
• Reagent grade isopropyl alcohol*
• A mild soap solution.
WARNING! Under no circumstances should ammonia-based cleaners, acetone, or other harsh solvents be used on or near the
PHX LED Ellipsoidal Luminaire. These types of cleaners or solvents can permanently damage the optics or housings of the fixture. If
you have any questions regarding the use or care of your PHX LED Ellipsoidal Luminaire, please contact Altman Lighting
technical support or your local Authorized Dealer.
1. Special Cleaning and Care Instructions:
Unlike most fixtures, the PHX LED Ellipsoidal Luminaire requires very little routine maintenance by the user. This section covers
portions of the luminaire that can be removed for cleaning. The PHX LED Ellipsoidal Luminaire special care when it comes to
cleaning the lens assembly. Additional care needs to be taken with the plastic components because they are much easier to scratch
or dam-age than glass. The following is a list of cleaning materials required to care for your PHX LED Ellipsoidal Luminaire:
2. Front Lens Cleaning (see following page for Lens layout information)
To clean the front lens and reflector:
1. Turn off luminaire and allow to cool completely.
2. Apply a small amount of reagent grade isopropyl alcohol to lint-free lens tissue.
3. Wipe all debris, dirt, fingerprints, etc. from lens and reflector.
4. Using a second lint-free lens tissue, wipe off any alcohol residue.
3. If the lens or body is still dirty after using isopropyl alcohol, for instance if fingerprints or oil is just redistributed and not
cleaned off the optic, then a mild soap and water solution can be used to gently wash the lens. Repeat the cleaning with isopropyl
alcohol to eliminate streaks and soap residue.
4. Service and Maintenance: Regular routine maintenance should be preformed at least twice a year. Additional inspections and
cleaning may be necessary and more often depending upon the the environment and hours of use of each luminaire. (see previous
page for cooling fin location (Heat Sink Location)
1. Turn off luminaire and allow to cool completely.
2. Check for excessive dust or debris in the heat sink area of the luminaire
3. Wipe and remove all debris, dirt, dust from the cooling fins (a can of clean compressed air can be used to blow out
from one side of the luminaire to the other: do not blow dust into the open cavity.
NOTE: keeping these components clean will facilitate efficient cooling and extend LED life.
4. Using a second lint-free lens tissue, wipe off any alcohol residue.
For all other service and maintenance issues, please contact your local Altman Lighting offices or an Authorized Service Center.

INSTALLATION AND SET UP
POWER CONNECTION - DMX CONTROL MODE: e PHX LED Ellipsoidal Luminaire should be connected to
either a constant circuit or relay device when in DMX mode. Note: Altman Lighitng recommends that all Non-
Dim circuits powering solid state luminaires are routinely powered down to both conserve energy and maxi-
mize luminare performance.
IMPORTANT AC POWER CONNECTION NOTES:
a. Must be supplied by a branch either dimming or constant circuit protected by a maximum 20 Amp circuit
protector.
Doit être alimenté par un circuit de dérivation protégé par un maximum de 20 ampères circuit protecteur.
b. When using the daisy-chain connection method, ONLY connect your PHX LED Elipsoidal to AC Output
Connection of other PHX LED Elipsoidals. DO NOT CONNECT OTHER TYPES OF LUMINAIRES OR DEVICES!
c. Use only approved cable types.
d. Do not overload circuits!
f. The MAXIMUM allowable number of PHX LED Elipsoidals which can be 'daisychained' on one power feed-
CONNECTING POWER
should not exceed ratings. DO NOT EXCEED!
Connecting Power
Units can be powered in one of two ways:
• Direct connection to a AC power source using a supplied AC input cable.
• Daisy chain connection using an interconnect AC cable.
Field wiring of PHX LED Elipsoidals Luminaire is straight forward. A total of 3 wires/conduc-
tors need to be brought to the unit. The following wiring scheme is required: Please consult:
http://www.neutrik.com/en/video/powercon/powercon-20-a/nac3fca
For additional powerCON blue and grey wiring and assembly information.
Wire Color Purpose
Brown (230V) Black (120V) Main/(L)ine (120 to 230 VAC)
Blue (230V) White (120V) (N)eutral
Green/Yellow (230V) Green (120V) Ground / Earth
WARNING! e maximum allowable input current is 20 Amps (and the maximum power supply limit of 250
Watts for PHX2 and 150 Watts for PHX1). Do not overload circuits! Luminaires must be supplied by a branch
circuit protected by a maximum 20 Amp circuit protector. Doit être alimenté par un circuit de dérivation pro-
tégé par un maximum de 20 ampères circuit protecteur. Ne surchargez pas les circuits !
WARNING! To prevent injury or death, you must have access to a main circuit breaker or other power disconnect device before installing
any wiring. Be sure that power is disconnected by removing fuses or turning the main circuit breaker o before installation. Installing the
device with power on may expose you to dangerous voltages and damage the device. A qualied electrician must perform this installation.
Note: The PHX LED Ellipsoidal Luminaire is intended for installation in accordance with the National Electric Code and local regulations. To
assure full compliance with local codes and regulations, check with your local electrical inspector before installation. The PHX LED Ellipsoi-
