1.1 Safety Instructions
The I IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON N is a High-Tech Product. To guarantee a
smooth operation, it is necessary to respect the following rules.
The manufacturer of this device will not take responsibility of
damages through any disregard of the information in this
manual. Warranty claims also will be cancelled in case the
system casing is opened.
1. Make sure before putting the system into operation, that the fan and the air
inlets are clean and not blocked by anything.
2. It must be assured that the system-head can rotate unhindered throughout
his complete rotating range. A safety distance of at least 0.5 m to any easily
inflammable material (e.g. decoration material) must be adhered.
3. Attention! Don’t touch the device during the operation. This can cause
injuries or damages.
4. The system doesn’t contain any maintainable parts. Don’t open it!
5. It is necessary to wait at least 15 minutes after disconnecting the AC before
changing the optical carrier. Pay attention to possibly hot parts of the
system. -- Danger of BURNING --
6. Never look directly into the beam of light or one of the LEDs. Never use
optical apertures with a distance less than 0.5 m to observe the beam of
light. LED Class 2M. You'll risk a serious injury of your eyes and in
particular of your retina.
Attention: LED Class 2M can cause injuries of your eyes even
without optical instruments in front of them or within a distance
of less than 0.5m and short exposure time.
Hence: Avoid direct radiation of your eyes!
7. To allow a secure operation, follow also the Installation guide described in
chapter 2. Operating the I IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON N without suitable safety aids like
Safety cables or clamps/hooks can increase the risk of an accident.
8. Repair-, maintenance- and installation work shall be done by qualified or
GLP certified staff only. You need to pay attention to the common rules of
technology that are not explicit mentioned in this manual.
9. Use only original spare parts. Any structural modification on the system will
terminate all warranty claims.

GLP German Light Products GmbH instruction version 1.05 6
2 Preparation and Installation
2.1 Mounting
The I IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON N is fully operational whether it hangs or is mounted to the
wall. It can also be operated while standing on the floor. Keep a safety distance
of 0.5 m towards any easily inflammable materials (decoration etc.).
Pay attention to the regulations of: BGV C1 (former VBG 70)
and DIN VDE 0711-217.
The installation shall be done by qualified staff only.
For the various mounting positions of the I IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON N(standing on the floor,
sideways or hanging) different accessories kits are available. Through this a
safe and firm installation is assured. You'll find special connectors on the
bottom side of the system which are put to use here. In addition the front side of
the system is marked with (FRONT) as this is important for a even orientation
during installation.

2.1.1 Mounting on the Floor (Upright)
To operate the I IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON Nin an upright position, please use the
dedicated tripod which is mounted to the bottom side of the system. It is
fixed with fasteners called Camlock quick-release connectors. Turn the
two fasteners both 90° to lock them. Do the opposite to release them
again. On both sides you'll find eyelets to pull though a fixing strap. This
allows an additional bracing of the system during the upright operation.
2x Camlock
2x eyelets
2.1.2 Mounting in hanging Position (Head first)
To operate the I IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON Nin an hanging position, please use a half-
coupler (clamp) which is mounted directly to the bottom side of the
system. It is fixed centrically with a M10x16 mm thread bolt.

M10x16
2.1.3 Mounting in sidewise Position
To operate the I IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON Nin a sidewise position, please use an
addition mounting bar. Also this is fixed by two Camlock quick-release
connectors. Two half-couplers (clamps) are now used to mount the
system to a standard truss bar. This technique is necessary to cope with
the torque which accrues in this mounting position. In addition it allows a
concentrically position between two truss belts. Never use the "Mounting
in hanging Position" technique described above to fasten the system in
the sidewise position. A safe and sound installation can not be assured
in this way. This can also damage the system base.

2.2 Secure the Device
Regardless of the mounting method of the I IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON N you'll have to use a
stipulated safety wire. Therefore you have to pull the safety wire through to two
provided holes on the bottom side of the system and connect it with the truss-
support. Pay attention to a safe and proper fastening. Install a safety wire that
can hold at least 10 times the weight of the fixture. Never use the carrying
handles for this purpose.
2.3 Connections
2.3.1 Power Supply
~100-240 Volt AC, 50-60 Hz, earth contact type plug - Powercon
Connected load 350 VA (W) <=> 4 AT (micro-fuse 5x20mm)
Please see printing on the case for the right electronic supply!
Disconnect from the mains supply for changing the fuse and use
only the above described micro-fuse type.
2.3.2 DMX
USITT DMX-512 Standard input/output in 3 pole connectors.
3 pole: Pin 1 = [Ground] / Pin 2 = [-] / Pin 3 = [+]
The DMX- Addressing starts at the DMX- Address [001].

3 The Menu Field
You’ll find the control board on the side part of the arm. It allows you
to make all necessary adjustments of the I IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON N. .With the
Mode-key you get into the main menu. Afterwards you can navigate
through the menu with the Up/Down-keys. Push the Enter-key to get
in the next menu level or to confirm your settings. Make them and set
functions ON/OFF with the Up/Down-keys. Confirm and save it with
the Enter-key (the display shows OK). Push the Mode-key to cancel
the entry and go back to the main menu.

(*) Max. Power-Mode vs. White-Mode
The I IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON Ncan regard the white-balance adjustments for each individual color setting.
Whether the White-Mode is used with RGB can be selected in the Normal DMX-Mode during
operation with the Special DMX channel. If the Special channel is set to a value between DMX 0..15,
the White-Mode is not used and the RGB goes for the maximum light output. If the Special channel is
set to a value between DMX 16..31, the white balance is used for the RGB output.
Since there is no Special DMX channel in the Compress DMX-Mode, the possibility exists to likewise
select these settings also in the display menu. Is the White-Mode set to “ON”, the white-balance is
activated. If the White-Mode is set to “OFF”, the RGB goes for the maximum light output (Max. Power-
Mode).

5 Maintaining and Cleaning the I IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON N
The I IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON Nis a system of very low maintenance. It is only necessary to clean
the air in- and outlets as well as the optical LED lenses from time to time. For a safe
operation it is absolutely essential that the fixture is kept clean and that dust, dirt and
smoke-fluid residues must not built up on or within the fixture. Otherwise the fixture's
light-output will be significantly reduced or damages can occur. Regular cleaning will
not only ensure the maximum light-output, but will also allow the fixture to operate
reliably throughout its life.
A soft lint-free cloth moistened with any good glass cleaning fluid is recom-
mended, under no circumstances should alcohol or solvents be used!
5.1 Safety regulations
• Pull out the main plug!
• Wait min. 15 minutes after the last operation to cool down the fixture.
5.2 Circumference and Interval (rule-of-thumb)
The contamination of the fixture depends on the environment details. Hence no
general guidelines can be given. The intervals given below are only suggestions
from our practice experience.
Position Interval In this way
LED reflector and optical system weekly soft brush /lint-free cloth
Fan and air channel monthly vacuum cleaner, airbrush, etc.
Attention:
• Never let optical parts come into contact with oil or fat.
• Before running the fixture wait until all parts are dried up.
• Never tough lenses with bare fingers.
