• Unpacking
Open the box, remove the projector
from the packing and place it on a flat
horizontal surface.
Unpack the standard accessories sup-
plied with the equipment. Inspect the
lamp change label (1) and replace with
one of the optional language versions if
necessary.
Make certain that the label is never
removed, as it displays important
safety information.
IMPORTANT: Read carefully. It is essential for the correct and safe use of the
equipment that erectors and operators should be fully conversant with the
information and instructions given in this manual.

• Initial assembly operations
Position the bracket (2) the desired height
and secure by tightening the knobs (3).
The bracket can also be freed by
removing the screws (4) and the
knobs (3), and refitted from the
underside of the projector.
• Connecting to the electrical power supply
The operations described in this heading must be carried out by a licensed
electrician.
The projector must be wired up to the electrical power supply using the special
socket connector provided. It is good policy to connect projectors to the power
supply by way of dedicated switches, so that each can be turned on and off indi-
vidually from a remote station.
• Connecting the control signals
0 -10V CONNECTION
RS 232/423(PMX) - DMX 512 CONNECTION
The projector is designed to operate at the voltage and frequency indicated on the
electrical data plate (5) affixed to the rear end.
Check that these two values correspond to the mains voltage and frequency.
IMPORTANT: the projector must be connected to a power supply circuit
having a proper earth system (Class I appliance).
IMPORTANT: For better and more reliable operation of the projector, the ambient
temperature must not exceed 35° C (95° F). Protection factor IP 20:the appliance is
protected against penetration of solid bodies more than 12mm (0.5”) in diameter (first
digit 2), but can be damaged by spray, jet, drip or rain water (second digit 0).
The appliance may be mounted on surfaces rated normally inflammable.
• Minimum distance of inflammable materials from any part of the equipment:
0.05 m (2’) for HTI 300 and
HMD 300, and 0.07 m (3’) for HMI 575.
• Fitting the lamp
Refer to directions for replacement of the lamp given under heading 6 MAINTE-
NANCE.
• Installing the projector
The projector can be mounted in any position without its operating characteristics
being affected.
IMPORTANT: fix the projector in the desired position utilizing the holes in the
bracket (2). Secure preferably using two ø10 bolts with nuts and lock washers.
Make certain that the anchorage is stable before positioning the projector.
Projectors are wired up to the controller and one to the next using two-core scree-
ned cable and Cannon 5 pin XLR type plug/socket connectors.
To connect a DMX line, a terminating plug (6) with a 100Ωresistor wired between
pins 2 and 3 must be fitted to the last projector connected in series; the plug is not
required when using a RS232/423(PMX) signal.
The wires must not come into contact with each other or with the metal casing
of the plug.The casing of the plug/socket must be connected to the screen and
to pin 1 of the connectors.
Having completed the operations described above, press the on/off switch (7).Check
that the warning light comes on and that the auto-reset sequence starts.

• Projector address codes (for digital signals)
A single COMBICOLOR utilizes 4 control channels. To ensure that the different
projectors are addressed correctly by the controller, a code must be assigned to each
one.The operation is carried out on each COMBICOLOR by setting the dip-switches
as indicated in the table below.
• Aligning the beam
Having completed all the operations indi-
cated thus far, loosen the knobs (3),
manoeuvre the projector on the bracket
(2) until the beam is directed at centre
stage, then retighten the knobs (3).
Setting theTEST switch to the ON position for a few seconds with the projector powe-
red-up, an auto-reset routine is carried out. Leaving the TEST switch at the ON posi-
tion for a longer period, a full self-test program will be completed;once the operation
has terminated, return the switch to the OFF position.

MAINTENANCE
• Changing colour filters
Having opened the projector, iden-
tify the filter to be changed, grip
firmly between thumb and forefin-
ger and push against the spring
clip (15) until free of the fixed clips
(16). Bend the filter outwards and
remove. Offer the new filter to the
spring clip (15) and anchor behind
the fixed clips (16).
• Changing metal gobos
Having opened the projector, iden-
tify the gobo to be replaced and
push gently toward the clips (17)
until free.
Offer the new gobo to the first two
clips, push gently and locate
behind the remaining clips,
checking for flatness.
• Changing fuses
To change the fuses, press the tab
(18) and pull out the fuse holder
(19). Replace any blown fuse with
one of the same type and rating as
indicated on the label (20) atta-
ched to the holder (19). Insert the
fuse holder and push in to engage
the tab (18).

IMPORTANT: isolate the projector from the electrical power supply before commen-
cing maintenance work of any description.
The maximum temperature on the outer surface of the projector under normal ope-
rating conditions is indicated on the lamp change label (1).
After switching off, do not remove any part of the projector for at least 10 minutes, as
indicated on the lamp change label (1).Once this time has elapsed, the risk of a lamp
exploding is practically zero.If the lamp needs changing, wait a further 15 minutes to
avoid the risk of burns. In the event of a lamp exploding, the appliance is designed
to prevent fragments of glass from being scattered.
Lenses and clear filters supplied with the appliance must be fitted at all times, and if
visibly damaged must be replaced promptly with genuine spares.
In the 0% to 50% range of adjustment,
the dimmer opens gradually to maximum
aperture.
Strobe effect is produced from 55% to
95%, with frequency increasing from 1 to
11 flashes per second.
The aperture remains fixed between 95%
and 100% of the range.

• Opening the projector
Free the access cover (11) by
loosening the knobs (10), and
remove from the projector.
Once the necessary work has
been completed, refit the cover
(11) and retighten the knobs (10).
• Changing the lamp
Open the projector, loosen the two side nuts (12) of the lamp to be changed and
remove it from the supports (13).
Remove the new lamp from its packaging, loosen the two side nuts (12) and
locate the lamp in the supports (13). Finally, retighten the nuts.

IMPORTANT: for uniform distribution of the light beam, the lamp must be positioned
so that the glass pip (14), on the bulb does not coincide with the optical axis of the
projector.With this in mind, locate the pip as high up as possible.
CAUTION: The projector uses a high pressure discharge lamp with
external starter.
- When fitting a new lamp, read the manufacturer’s instructions carefully.
- The lamp must always be changed without delay if damaged or deformed
by heat.

• Routine cleaning
To maintain the light output of the projec-
tor undiminished, parts that tend to accu-
mulate dust and grease must be cleaned
periodically.
In most circumstances, the projector will
give long and trouble-free service if these
simple guidelines are followed.
To remove dirt from the lenses and filters,
use a soft cloth moistened with any liquid
detergent suitable for cleaning glass.
IMPORTANT: do not use solvents or alcohol
Parts that need cleaning frequently.
Parts that need cleaning monthly.
Internal components should also be given
a general clean once a year, dislodging
dust and dirt with a brush and removing it
simultaneously with a vacuum cleaner.
