Since each Shiva-150R/200R/250R has 6 channels, starting
addresses would be set as follows: First scanner starting address
= 1; Second scanner starting address = 7, etc.
Use a ball-point pen or toothpick to set dip switch addresses
appropriately. See the guide DMX512 Basics for more
information. For convenience, Shiva-150R/200R/250R starting
addresses for 28 units and corresponding DMX dip switch settings
are listed below.

2. Remove lamp from packaging. Read
lampinstructions. Do not touch lamp bulb
with bare hands, as this could damage
the lamp. Grasp the lamp stem and
wear lint-free gloves.
1. Loosen two screws (B6) on the slide-out
lamp holder (B2). Don't loosen the middle
screw (B3). Pull the lamp holder (B2) out
as far as possible, about 10 cm.
Caution! Lamp and metal components get hot during operation. Always
disconnect power and allow unit to cool before opening the unit cover.

150R/200R/250R " scanner. Actually, "Shiva-150R/200R/250R "
TM
refers to the three scanners with similar functions: Shiva-200R
scanner uses HSD-200 lamp which has a 2000-hour lamp life.
TM
Shiva-250R scanner uses EHJ 64655 G6.35 24V/250W (50-hour)
TM
or EHJ 64657 G6.35 24V/250W (300-hour) lamp. Shiva-150R
uses PHILIPS CDM-SA/T 150W/942 . Always use the correct lamp
for your unit.
TM
3a. For Shiva-150R scanner: Note that the CDM-SA/T
150W/942 lamp stem has two pegs, one thicker than the other.
Match the pegs with the holes in the lamp socket. Insert the
pegs into the lamp socket.
TM
3b. For Shiva-200R scanner: Use HSD-200 lamp ,Same as
above procedure.
TM
3c. For Shiva-250R scanner: Use either EHJ 64655 G6.35
24V/250W (50-hour) or EHJ 64657 G6.35 24V/250W (300-
hour) lamp. Both of these lamps have two pegs of the same
size. Insert pegs into the lamp Socket.
4. Make sure the lamp is in straight. Push the lamp mechanism (B2)
straight back into place and fasten screws (B6) on the lamp
holder (B2). If you feel strong resistence when pushing the lamp

3. Rotate lens to obtain a sharp focus.
2. The scanner shutter will open, pan and tilt will align to center, and a
small white spot will appear for easy focusing.
1. Set Function dip switch #7 to the "on" position.
6. The lamp will light (but may be covered by the shutter). You might hear the
color and gobo wheels reset and pause. New scanners sometimes smoke
and emit an odor briefly as paint and dust are burnt away.
7. external flexible cable or cord of this luminaire is damaged, it shall be
replaced by a special cord or cord exclusively available from the
manufacturer or his service agent.
5. Check that your power supply and the specified scanner voltage are the
same. Plug mains power cord into the IEC socket (B5) on the back of unit.
Plug the mains power cord into properly grounded power supply.
4. Avoid signal interference by flipping Function dip switch #8 to the "on"
position on the last scanner in a series of DMX units.
3. Set scanner DMX addresses by flipping the appropriate DMX dip switche s.
For more information, see Appendix 1,theDMX512 Address Chart a nd
the guide DMX512 Basics.
1. Use a 35-kg rated or stronger clamp to
secure the scanner bracket (A1) onto a firm
truss. Tilt unit as desired and tighten scanner
bracket knobs (A5). Allow at least onem eter
on all sides for proper cooling. Keep unit
away from liquids and flammable items.
Lastly, pass safety rope (A7) through bracket of
the unit, hitch the safety rope round the truss and
buckle it up.

Focusing the Lens
2. Link DMX512 signal cables to the DMX
sockets B8 and B10 on the back plate of the
scanner. "Daisy chain" the scanners as
illustrated in the guide DMX Basics. Always use
120 ohm shiel ded, 22 or 24 AWG, braided shield microphone cables and
three-pin canon XLR connectors.

SECTION 2 - OPERATION
Function settings are designed to make installation and programming
convenient and fast. Simply activate a Function dip switch to get the option
you want.
Please refer to Appendix 2,theDMX Channel Control Diagram, for a more
detailed explanation of effect positions.
When using a DMX controller, channels
correlate with scanner functions. So
when you move a slider on the color channel, for example, the colors will

3. Disconnect DMX512 cable. Turn on Function dip switch #4,
activating the self-test function. If scanner operates properly, the DMX
signal cable or connector is likely at fault. Replace the DMX cable.
2. Check DMX512 dip switch settings. Make sure the unit is addressed
properly. Make sure that Function dip switches 1-5 and 7 are off.
5. If lamp is not discolored or cracked, reinsert it. Close the lamp holder,
tightening two screws (B6) securely. Connect power.
6. If lamp doesn't light, refer servicing to a qualified technician.
Problem: Lamp light is not visible but fan is turning.
Solution:
4. Disconnect power. Let unit cool. Check lamp. If lamp is cracked or
discolored, rather than clear, replace it. See Lamp Installation a n d L amp
Removal sections for details.
Trouble-shooting
The following trouble-shooting guide is provided to help product users solve
minor problems. Always refer servicing to a qualified technician.
Problem: Lamp is not lit and fan is not turning. (Fan can be seen through the
back panel.)
Solution:
1. Check electric mains for proper power connection. Check that the
power supply matches product power supply specifications.
2. Check the fuse. First, disconnect mains power supply. Use a flat-head
screwdriver to pry open the fuse holder casing (B4) near the IEC socket
(B5). If the fuse is discolored, rather than clear, replace it. A replacement
fuse is provided in the fuse holder (B4). Always use appropriate type of
fuse. (See Product Specifications.)
1. Adjust your DMX controller sliders to open the scanner shutter channel,
channel 1. Refer to Appendix 2 and controller instruction manual if
necessary.
Proper DMX512 addresses must be set on each scanner. Appendix 1
is a Chart of standard addressing for the six-channel Shiva-
TM
150R/200R/250R scanner. Refer to the guide DMX512 Basics for
more information.

3. Dispose lamps properly. Keep used lamps away from children and
animals.
2. With one hand on the lamp socket and the other on the stem of the lamp
bulb, pull the lamp stem away from the socket.
Lamp Removal
To remove lamps, follow the directions below. Always allow unit to cool
before changing lamps or opening the unit cover.
1. Loosen two screws (B6) on the slide-out lamp holder (B2). Do not loosen
the middle screw (B3). Pull the lamp holder (B2) out as far as possible,
about 10 cm.
Maintenance

Warning: Disconnect power and let unit cool before handling. Never open
unit cover when in use. Keep away from water and other liquids.
Lamps have special characteristics that should be observed to prolong
their use. Wait about ten minutes after disconnecting electric power to
TM
Shiva-150R/200R scanner before supplying power again. The CDM-
SA/T 150W/942 and HSD-200 lamp will not relight immediately after
being turned off. Wait about one minute after disconnecting power to
TM
Shiva-250R scanner before supplying power again. Even though
halogen lamps, like EHJ 64657 G6.35 24V/250W, restart quickly after
being extinguished, wait one minute to protect scanner electronics.
To maintain maximum brightness, clean the unit regularly with a damp
cloth or glass cleaner.
1. Wipe lens clean regularly.
2. Keep internal optical path free from dust or cobwebs.
3. Clean internal parts once a year with a brush and strong vacuum
