Safety

WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! The light source in this luminaire is not
user-replaceable, and must be replaced only by a qualified technician. Contact
ETC Customer Support for assistance.
AVERTISSEMENT : RISQUE DE DÉCHARGE ÉLECTRIQUE! La source lumineuse
de ce projecteur n'est pas remplaçable par l'utilisateur et ne doit être remplacée
seulement par un technicien qualifié. Contactez le service client ETC pour obtenir
de l’assistance.
WARNING: Note the following safety warnings before use:
• Use the fixture in dry locations only, where humidity does not exceed 90
percent (non-condensing).
• Connect the fixture to a non-dimmable power source in order to avoid
damage to the fixture's internal power supply and other electrical
components. Using a dimmable power source can damage the fixture and
will void the warranty.
• Disconnect the fixture from power and DMX and allow it to cool before
installing accessories or performing any cleaning and maintenance.
• Only use mounting hardware that is rated for the total weight of the
fixture and accessories.
• When the fixture is mounted, the axis between the yoke attachment points
must be parallel to the ground. Mounting the fixture in a non-parallel
orientation risks property damage or bodily injury.
• In addition to primary suspension, attach a safety cable (or other approved
safety device) to the fixture. Safety cables must be rated to support ten
times the fixture weight. Consult local standards to ensure that safety
cables meet all requirements. See Mounting and Safety Cables on the next
page .
• Check that the accessory holder is locked and that any accessory safety
cables are connected before mounting the fixture.
• Do not operate the fixture without the lens installed.
• Do not use this fixture with a damaged power lead. If the power lead (cord
set) is damaged, it must be replaced.
• Do not use this fixture if the lens is deeply scratched or cracked. You must
replace the lens when it is damaged.

AVERTISSEMENT : Prendre connaissance des avertissements de sécurité
suivants avant toute utilisation :
• Débranchez le projecteur de son alimentation et du DMX et laissez-le
refroidir avant d’installer des accessoires ou d’effectuer un nettoyage ou un
entretien.
• N’utilisez que de la quincaillerie de montage adaptée au poids total des
projecteurs et des accessoires.
• Lorsque le luminaire est accroché, l'axe entre les points de fixation de la
lyre doit être parallèle au sol. Le montage du luminaire dans une
orientation non parallèle risque de causer des dommages matériels ou
corporels.
• En plus de la suspension principale, fixez une chaîne de sécurité (ou tout
autre dispositif de sécurité homologué) au projecteur. Les chaînes de
sécurité doivent être en mesure de supporter dix fois le poids du projecteur.
Consultez les normes locales pour vous assurer que les câbles de sécurité
respectent toutes les exigences.
• Vérifiez que le porte-accessoires est verrouillé et que les élingues de tous
les accessoires sont bien attachées avant de monter le projecteur.
• N’utilisez pas le projecteur sans que la lentille soit installée.
• Ne pas utiliser ce projecteur avec un cordon d’alimentation endommagé. Si
le cordon d’alimentation (câble) est abîmé, il doit être remplacé.
• N’utilisez pas ce projecteur si la lentille présente des rayures ou des fissures
profondes. Il faut remplacer la lentille si elle est abîmée.
The luminaire must be installed at least 0.1m (4.0in)
away from all lighted objects. (FL7/FD7)

This product should not be discarded as unsorted waste
but must be sent to separate collection facilities for
recovery and recycling.
Ce produit ne doit pas être jeté avec les déchets
ménagers mais doit être déposé dans une collecte de

MountingandSafetyCables
You can mount the fixture using a clamp, baby-pin (16mm) receiver, or spigot on the yoke(A), or
you can set the fixture on a flat surface. When suspending the fixture, make sure to secure the
fixture with an appropriate safety cable at the safety cable attachment point (B).
CAUTION: When moving the yoke, do not overtighten the bolts. Minimum
torque is 2.82N·m (25in-lb), and maximum torque is 3.95N·m(35in-lb).

3. Lock the accessory holder by rotating the accessory holder lock back into place.
4. If necessary, move the adjustable yoke (D) to balance the fixture when using larger or heavier
accessories.
ConnectPowerandData
1. Attach five-pin XLR cable to the
DMX In connector (if using external
control).
2. Plug the XLR cable (if using) into the
DMX source or data daisy-chain.
3. Use the DMX Thru connectors to
connect up to 32 device loads on
the DMX daisy chain.
4. Are you using AC power or battery
power?
• AC power: Continue to step5.
• Battery power:Continue to
step6.
5. Use the Power Thru connectors to
connect other fixtures using the
following recommended guidelines,
and then continue to step 6:
• Power Thru: Link up to 6 additional medium (FL7 or FD7) fixtures (12A max) or up to 4
additional large (FL10 or FD10) fixtures (12A max) via Power Thru connector when using
an R20 Relay Module (consult breaker-trip curves when using other equipment).
6. Supply power to the fixture in one of these ways:
• Attach the power cable to the Power In connector, and then plug the power cable into
AC power (100–240VAC, 50/60 Hz) on a non-dimmable circuit.
• Attach the three-pin XLR cable to the Battery connector, and then plug the cable into
the battery (24–36VDC). Cable must be rated for 10A or greater.
FocustheFixture
1. Apply power to the fixture, and wait until the fixture has booted up(the ETC splash screen
displays during boot up).
2. Press any encoder to "wake" the display.
3. What screen is currently displayed?
• DMX:Press any encoder to leave the view-only screen, and then press the Intensity
encoder to turn on the LED array. The display shows a timeout countdown to indicate
how long the LED array will remain on at 100% intensity. You can turn the Intensity
encoder to reset the timeout countdown to 5minutes.
• All other screens (Studio, Preset, etc.): Press the Intensity encoder to turn on the
LEDarray, and turn the Intensity encoder to adjust the intensity.
4. Adjust the fixture to the desired position.
5. Rotate the zoom knob on either side of the fixture to adjust from spot to flood.
6. Press the Intensity encoder to turn off the LEDarray.
