IP65 RATED
The International Protection (IP) rating system is commonly expressed as “IP” (Ingress Protection)
followed by two numbers (i.e. IP65), where the numbers de󰤱ne the degree of protection. The 󰤱rst digit
(Foreign Bodies Protection) indicates the extent of protection against particles entering the 󰤱xture,
and the second digit (Water Protection) indicates the extent of protection against water entering the
󰤱xture. An IP65 rated lighting 󰤱xture is designed and tested to protect against the ingress of dust (6),
and low-pressure water jets from any direction (5).
NOTE: THIS FIXTURE IS INTENDED FOR TEMPORARY OUTDOOR USE ONLY!
Maritime/Coastal Environment Installations: A coastal environment is seaside adjacent, and caustic
to electronics through exposure to atomized salt-water and humidity, whereas maritime is anywhere
within 5-miles of a coastal environment.
NOT suitable for maritime/coastal environment installations. Installing this 󰤱xture
in a maritime/coastal environment may cause corrosion and/or excessive wear to the
interior and/or exterior components of the 󰤱xture. Damages and/or performance
issues resulting from installation in a maritime/coastal environment will void the
manufactures warranty, and will NOT be subject to any warranty claims and/or repairs.
Maritime installations require additional preparation, and additional service intervals may be needed
given the maritime use. In general, IP ratings presuppose freshwater conditions VS maritime conditions,
which are typically more “caustic” to IP 󰤱xtures (both internally and externally). A duty-cycle may
also be needed when units are not in use. During times of high humidity and colder temperatures,
condensation may occur internally so the 󰤱xture may require a duty-cycle to bring it up to running
temperature, allowing any accumulation of moisture to be expelled via the vent valve. Recommendations
can change based on installation environmental circumstances. A waterproof dome or similar device is
recommended for use in permanent outdoor installations. When using a dome, refer to manufacturer
recommendations for duty-cycle.
NOTE: NOT ALL FEATURES LISTED ARE AVAILABLE ON ALL FIXTURES; THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS
MAY NOT APPLY. CONTACT SUPPORT FOR ADDITIONAL DETAILS.
Exterior Maintenance: Inspect the exterior every 30-days. The unit must be powered o󰤰/disconnected.
The chassis should be inspected for any signs of contaminants. Inspect optics to determine if the lens
is obstructed, then clean optics and chassis accordingly. Based on initial 󰤱nding, schedule maintenance
accordingly, keeping in mind that exterior maintenance will be required. Even if the luminaires are NOT
in use, maintenance will still be needed given its location (exterior use). The use of a durable type of
wax on the chassis is recommended since it will help prevent contaminant build up. Inspect both power
and data lines for any signs of contaminants or corrosion. Periodically reapplying di-electric grease,
especially in coastal environments. If any signs of corrosion/contaminants are present, clean thoroughly,
and/or replace connectors, then reapply di-electric grease. Typically, this should be done annually, or
any time an opportunity presents itself. As a preventive measure, annual replacement of both vent
valves is recommended. The vent valve membrane can become contaminated and/or clogged causing
improper venting of humidity within the luminaire. Inspect all mounting hardware as a precaution.
Interior Maintenance: Inspect the interior every 30-days. The unit must be powered o󰤰/disconnected.
• Inspect zoom/focus mechanism, clean optics, lubricate linear bearings (Krytox oil) as needed, inspect
belts for wear
• Inspect all rotating e󰤰ect wheels, manually rotate them, note any resistance
• Inspect all remaining rotating belts for any wear
• Inspect all fans, clean as needed, check rotation, check connections
• Inspect CMY module, manually move 󰤲ags and check for signs of resistance, and if needed, clean
guide rods 󰤱rst, then reapply a thin layer of grease (moly lube)
• Clean interior with low-volume compressed air, then clean optics prior to reassembly of head covers
Although the base has limited moving parts, the pan belt should also be inspected for wear. Remember
to always perform an IP test anytime a cover is removed.
There is no speci󰤱c time frame regarding the routine replacement of parts such as belts/stepper motors,
PCBs, or LEDs. These items should only be replaced on an as needed bases, except for cooling fans, which
should be replaced once the luminaries reach 10,000-hours. This is a prophylactic measure intended
to keep the unit running as cool as possible, insuring proper function of all internal components. A
complete service breakdown is available, please contact service@elationlighting.com for any needed
parts or manuals.

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
POTENTIAL INTERNAL FIXTURE DAMAGE FROM EXTERNAL SOURCES OF LIGHT BEAMS
External sources of light beams from direct sunlight, lighting moving head 󰤱xtures, and lasers,
which are focused directly towards the exterior housing and/or penetrate the front lens
opening of ELATION lighting 󰤱xtures, can cause severe internal damage including burning to
optics, dichroic color 󰤱lters, glass and metal gobos, prisms, animation wheels, frost 󰤱lters, iris,
shutters, motors, belts, wiring, discharge lamps, and LEDs.
This issue is not speci󰤱c only to ELATION lighting 󰤱xtures, it is a common issue with lighting
󰤱xtures from all manufacturers. Although there is no true way to fully prevent this issue from
happening, the guidelines below can prevent any potential damage from occurring if followed.
Contact ELATION Service for more details.
DO NOT EXPOSE THE FIXTURE AND/OR FRONT LENS OPENING TO LIGHT BEAMS FROM
DIRECT SUNLIGHT, OTHER LIGHTING MOVING HEAD FIXTURES, AND LASERS WHILE
UNPACKING, INSTALLATION, USE, AND EXTENDED IDLE TIMES OUTDOORS. DO NOT FOCUS
A LIGHT BEAM FROM ONE LIGHTING FIXTURE DIRECTLY TOWARDS ANOTHER.
Note: See ‘DMX Traits: Fixture’ table on page 30 under ‘Control’ for channel values to
engage or disengage these functions.
18
INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
SUN PROTECTION MODE
The 󰤱xture incorporates an automatic protection from harmful sunlight, which can damage
a 󰤱xture’s internal components from extended exposure. Fixtures use an internal sensor to
determine their physical orientation, then reorient the 󰤱xture towards the ground to prevent
sunlight from entering the lens.
This automatic feature only works when the 󰤱xture is powered. If the 󰤱xture is unpowered
during setup, it is necessary to manually reorient the lenses away from the sun, and aim them
towards the ground. Even a few minutes of sun exposure can cause damage inside the 󰤱xture.
The Sun Protection setting is accessed via the “No DMX Status” menu.
The automatic sun protection positioning is activated under the following conditions:
1. Power on without DMX signal: the 󰤱xture always starts in sun protection mode.
2. No DMX Status “Sun Protection”: the 󰤱xture enters sun protection mode after approximately
3 minutes.
3. Remote DMX control: the sun protection position can be temporarily activated from the
lighting console without the need to create a custom position preset. The 󰤱xture senses
the correct ground orientation. This means that 󰤱xtures already facing the ground may not
move their heads.
Hold “Sun Protect Position” for 3s to set the 󰤱xture to the sun protection position.
Sun protection status displays as “Sun Protection: Active”.
The sun protection position deactivates under the following conditions:
1. Connect DMX signal.
2. Remote DMX control: Hold “Sun Protection O󰤰” for 3s.
To avoid harsh or jarring movements, the sun protection position always uses a 5-second fade
time when it is activated or deactivated.
HIBERNATION MODE
To reduce wear on the 󰤱xture and its components, this mode disables motors and most electronics.
Set the hibernation mode countdown time in the Display Menu: “Status Settings / Personality /
Hibernation”. Hibernation can be fully disabled.
The hibernation mode activates under the following conditions:
1. Loss of DMX: the 󰤱xture enters hibernation after the timeout expires. Default is 15 minutes.
2. Remote DMX control: Hold “Hibernate Fixture” for 3s
The hibernation mode deactivates under the following conditions:
1. Connect DMX Signal
2. Remote DMX control: Hold “Hibernate O󰤰” for 3s
The 󰤱xture will perform a full calibration cycle, then assume the current DMX status.
Please note that the Hibernation does not change the PT position of the 󰤱xtures, allowing the
user to set the desired position and then issue the Hibernate command.
To ensure the 󰤱xture is protected from harmful sunrays it is recommended to either leave the
“No DMX Status” in “Sun Protection” (so the 󰤱xture is already in the correct position after 3
minutes of DMX loss) or set the 󰤱xture to a safe Tilt position manually 󰤱rst before hibernation.
Burn and heat damage to the 󰤱xture’s interior components due to external light sources (sun
or other 󰤱xtures shining into the lens) is never covered under the manufacturers warranty.
19
SYSTEM MENU
The 󰤱xture includes an easy to navigate system menu. The control panel (see image below)
located on the front of the 󰤱xture, provides access to the main system menu and is where
all necessary system adjustments are made to the 󰤱xture. During normal operation, pressing
MODE/ESC button once will access the 󰤱xture’s main menu. Once in the main menu you can
navigate through the di󰤰erent functions and access the sub-menus with the UP, DOWN, RIGHT,
and LEFT buttons. Once you reach a 󰤱eld that requires adjusting, press the ENTER button to
activate that 󰤱eld and use the UP and DOWN buttons to adjust the 󰤱eld. Pressing the ENTER
button once more will con󰤱rm your setting. You may exit the main menu at any time without
making any adjustments by pressing the MODE/ESC button.
NOTE: To access the LCD Menu Control Display via the internal battery, press and hold the
MODE/ESC button for 10 seconds. The LCD Menu Control Display will shut OFF automatically
about 1 minute from the last button press.
