51838375_V_1_2.DOC32/110

If the device has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g. after transportation), do not switch it
on immediately. The arising condensation water might damage your device. Leave the device switched off
until it has reached room temperature.
Please make sure that there are no obvious transport damages. Should you notice any damages on the A/C
connection cable or on the casing, do not take the device into operation and immediately consult your local
dealer.
This device falls under protection-class I. The power plug must only be plugged into a protection class I
outlet. The voltage and frequency must exactly be the same as stated on the device. Wrong voltages or
power outlets can lead to the destruction of the device and to mortal electrical shock.
Always plug in the power plug last. The power plug must always be inserted without force. Make sure that
the plug is tightly connected with the outlet.
Never let the power-cord come into contact with other cables! Handle the power-cord and all connections
with the mains with particular caution! Never touch them with wet hands, as this could lead to mortal
electrical shock.
Never modify, bend, strain mechanically, put pressure on, pull or heat up the power cord. Never operate next
to sources of heat or cold. Disregard can lead to power cord damages, fire or mortal electrical shock.
The cable insert or the female part in the device must never be strained. There must always be sufficient
cable to the device. Otherwise, the cable may be damaged which may lead to mortal damage.
Make sure that the power-cord is never crimped or damaged by sharp edges. Check the device and the
power-cord from time to time.
If extension cords are used, make sure that the core diameter is sufficient for the required power
consumption of the device. All warnings concerning the power cords are also valid for possible extension
cords.
Always disconnect from the mains, when the device is not in use or before cleaning it. Only handle the
power-cord by the plug. Never pull out the plug by tugging the power-cord. Otherwise, the cable or plug can
be damaged leading to mortal electrical shock. If the power plug or the power switch is not accessible, the
device must be disconnected via the mains.
If the power plug or the device is dusty, the device must be taken out of operation, disconnected and then be
cleaned with a dry cloth. Dust can reduce the insulation which may lead to mortal electrical shock. More
severe dirt in and at the device should only be removed by a specialist.
There must never enter any liquid into power outlets, extension cords or any holes in the housing of the
device. If you suppose that also a minimal amount of liquid may have entered the device, it must immediately
be disconnected. This is also valid, if the device was exposed to high humidity. Also if the device is still
running, the device must be checked by a specialist if the liquid has reduced any insulation. Reduced
insulation can cause mortal electrical shock.
There must never be any objects entering into the device. This is especially valid for metal parts. If any metal
parts like staples or coarse metal chips enter into the device, the device must be taken out of operation and
disconnected immediately. Malfunction or short-circuits caused by metal parts may cause mortal injuries.
During the initial start-up some smoke or smell may arise. This is a normal process and does not necessarily
mean that the device is defective.
Danger of burning! Never install the device on a highly flammable surfaces (e.g. fair carpet)!
Caution: During the operation, the housing becomes very hot.

For the installation, you need one MSR 1200 SA lamp.
The lamp must only be changed when wearing appropriate protective clothing (protection glasses, protection
gloves, helmet with sight, leather apron).
The lamp has to be replaced when it is damaged
CAUTION!
or deformed due to the heat!
The lamp life given by the manufacturer must never be exceeded. This is why you need to take notes on the
operational time of the lamp or check the operating hour meter regularly and replace the lamp in time.
Keep exchanged lamp in a protective container and remove accordingly.
During the operation, the lamp reaches temperatures of up to 600° C.
Before replacing the lamp, unplug mains lead and let the lamp cool down (approx. 10 minutes).
During the installation do not touch the glass-bulbs bare-handed! Please follow the lamp manufacturer's
notes!
Do not install lamps with a higher wattage! Lamps with a higher wattage generate temperatures the device
was not designed for. Damages caused by non-observance are not subject to warranty.
Procedure:
Step 1: Unscrew the fixation screws W, X, Y, Z of the lamp system and carefully remove it from the
housing.
Step 2: If replacing the lamp, remove the old lamp from the lamp holder.
Step 3: Insert the lamp into the lamp holder.

differences between lamps, fine adjustment may
improve light performance.
MSR 1200 SA
W
Strike the lamp, open the shutter, set the dimmer
intensity onto 100 % and direct the light towards a
flat surface (wall). Center the hot-spot (the
brightest part of the beam) using the 3 adjustment
screws "A, B, C”. Turn one screw at a time to drag
the hot-spot diagonally across the projected image.
If you cannot detect a hot-spot, adjust the lamp
until the light is even.
To reduce a hot-spot, pull the lamp in by turning all
three screws "A, B, C” clockwise ¼-turn at a time
until the light is evenly distributed.
If the light is brighter around the edge than it is in
the center, or if light output is low, the lamp is too far back in the reflector. "Push” the lamp out by turning the
screws "A, B, C” counterclockwise ¼-turn at a time the light is bright and evenly distributed.
Inserting/Exchanging gobos
DANGER!
Install the gobos with the device switched off only.
Unplug from mains before!

Rigging
DANGER TO LIFE!
Please consider the EN 60598-2-17 and the respective national norms during the
installation! The installation must only be carried out by an authorized dealer!
The installation of the projector has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10 times the weight
for 1 hour without any harming deformation.
The installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. an appropriate catch net.
This secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that no part of the installation can fall down
if the main attachment fails.
When rigging, derigging or servicing the fixture staying in the area below the installation place, on bridges,
under high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an
expert before taking into operation for the first time and after changes before taking into operation another
time.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an
expert after every four year in the course of an acceptance test.
51838375_V_1_2.DOC40/110

The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by a
skilled person once a year.
Procedure:
The projector should be installed outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated.
IMPORTANT! OVERHEAD RIGGING REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE, including (but not limited to)
calculating working load limits, installation material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all
installation material and the projector. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself,
but instead use a professional structural rigger. Improper installation can result in bodily injury and.or
damage to property.
The projector has to be installed out of the reach of people.
If the projector shall be lowered from the ceiling or high joists, professional trussing systems have to be
used. The projector must never be fixed swinging freely in the room.
Caution: Projectors may cause severe injuries when crashing down! If you have doubts concerning the
safety of a possible installation, do NOT install the projector!
Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10 times the projector's
weight.
DANGER OF FIRE!
When installing the device, make sure there is no highly-inflammable
material (decoration articles, etc.) within a distance of min. 0.5 m.
CAUTION!
Use 2 appropriate clamps to rig the fixture on the truss.
Follow the instructions mentioned at the bottom of the base.
Make sure that the device is fixed properly! Ensure that
the structure (truss) to which you are attaching the fixtures is secure.
The Moving-Head can be placed directly on the stage floor or rigged in any orientation on a truss without
altering its operation characteristics (see the drawing).
The fixture’s base enables to be mounted in two ways.
For overhead use (mounting height >100 cm), always install a safety-rope that can hold at least 12 times the
weight of the fixture. You must only use safety-ropes with quick links with screw cap. Pull the safety-rope
through the hole on the bottom of the base and over the trussing system etc. Insert the end in the quick link
and tighten the fixation screw.
The maximum drop distance must never exceed 20 cm.
A safety rope which already hold the strain of a crash or which is defective must not be used again.
DANGER TO LIFE!
Before taking into operation for the first time, the installation has to be approved by an expert!
51838375_V_1_2.DOC41/110

Screw one clamp each via a M12 screw and nut onto the Omega-holders.
Insert the quick-lock fasteners of the first Omega-holder into the respective holes on the bottom of the
device. Tighten the quick-lock fasteners fully clockwise. Install the second Omega-holder.
DMX-512 connection / connection between fixtures
The wires must not come into contact with each other, otherwise
the fixtures will not work at all, or will not work properly.
Please note, the starting address depends upon which controller is being used.
Only use a stereo shielded cable and 3-pin XLR-plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller with
the fixture or one fixture with another.
51838375_V_1_2.DOC42/110

Occupation of the XLR-connection:
If you are using controllers with this occupation, you can connect the DMX-output of the controller directly
with the DMX-input of the first fixture in the DMX-chain. If you wish to connect DMX-controllers with other
XLR-outputs, you need to use adapter-cables.
Building a serial DMX-chain:
Connect the DMX-output of the first fixture in the DMX-chain with the DMX-input of the next fixture. Always
connect one output with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are connected.
Caution: At the last fixture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 Ωresistor
between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last fixture.
Connection with the mains
Connect the device to the mains with the enclosed power supply cable.
The occupation of the connection-cables is as follows:
Cable Pin International
Brown Live L
Blue Neutral N
Yellow/Green Earth
The earth has to be connected!
If the device will be directly connected with the local power supply network, a disconnection switch with a
minimum opening of 3 mm at every pole has to be included in the permanent electrical installation.
The device must only be connected with an electric installation carried out in compliance with the IEC-
standards. The electric installation must be equipped with a Residual Current Device (RCD) with a maximum
fault current of 30 mA.
Lighting effects must not be connected to dimming-packs.
OPERATION
After you connected the effect to the mains, the PHS-1200 starts running. During the Reset, the motors are
trimmed and the device is ready for use afterwards.
Stand Alone operation
In the Stand Alone mode, the PHS-1200 can be used without controller.
Disconnect the PHS-1200 from the controller and call the internal program.
Please refer to the instructions under Control Board, Functions, menu Auto program.
51838375_V_1_2.DOC43/110

DMX-controlled operation
You can control the projectors individually via your DMX-controller. Every DMX-channel has a different
occupation with different features. The individual channels and their features are listed under DMX-protocol.
Addressing
The Control Board allows you to assign the DMX starting address, which is defined as the first channel from
which the PHS-1200 will respond to the controller.
If you set, for example, the address to channel 26, the PHS-1200 will use the channel 26 to 50 for control.
Please, be sure that you don’t have any overlapping channels in order to control each PHS-1200 correctly
and independently from any other fixture on the DMX-chain.
If several PHS-1200 are addressed similarly, they will work synchronically.
Trun the encoder for setting the desired starting address. Now you can start operating the PHS-1200 via
your lighting controller.
Note:
The modes of DMX 512 data and lamp are shown via the display:
1. After switching on, the device will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or not. If the
data is received, the the display will show "A.001" with the actually set address. If there is no data received
at the DMX-input, the display will flash.
This situation can occur if:
- the 3 PIN XLR plug (cable with DMX signal from controller) is not connected with the input of the device.
- the controller is switched off or defective, if the cable or connector is defective or the signal wires are swap
in the input connector.
Note:
It’s necessary to insert the XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) in the last lighting in the link in order to
ensure proper transmission on the DMX data link.
2. If the lamp is on, the the display will show "A00.1" with the actually set address. If the lamp is off, the the
display will show "A001" with the actually set address.
