2 Safety Instructions
1. Before powering on the fixture, make sure that the fixtures fans and air
inlets are clean and not blocked.
2. Ensure that the fixture head can rotate unhindered throughout its complete
range of pan and tilt movement. A safety distance of at least 0.5 m must be
maintained between the fixture and any easily inflammable material (e.g.
decoration material).
3. Attention! Don’t touch the fixture during the operation. This can cause
injuries and/or damages.
4. The fixture doesn’t contain any user serviceable parts. Opening the
fixture will void all warranties.
5. It is necessary to wait at least 15 minutes after disconnecting the mains
power before handling the fixture.. Pay attention to possible hot parts of the
fixture.
The I IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON N X X1 1 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 for
damages through any disregard of the information provided in
this manual. Warranty claims also will be voided in the case that
the fixture housing is opened.
Never look directly into the beam of light or into one of the
LEDs. 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 into your eyes!
WARNING:
Never let optical parts come in contact with alcohol,
solvents or similar cleaners.

6. To ensure safe operation, follow also the Installation guide described in the
chapter below. Operating the
I
IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON N X X1 1
without suitable safety aids
like Safety cables or clamps/hooks can increase the risk of an accident and
must be avoided.
7. 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 explicitly mentioned in this manual.
8. Use only original GLP spare parts. Any structural modification of the
system will terminate all warranty claims.
9. Please keep this instruction manual for future reference.
10. Should you have any questions about the operation of your fixture then
please contact your local GLP office, or their authorized distributor, a list of
which can be found at www.glp.de.

3 Mounting
The
I
IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON N X X1 1
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 min. 0.5 m towards any easily inflammable materials (decoration etc.).
Pay attention to the regulations of: BGV C1 (former VBG 70),
DIN VDE 0711-217 and BGI 810-3.
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 X X1 1
(standing on the
floor, sideways or hanging) different connectors are available. Through this a
safe and firm installation is assured. You'll find dedicated M10 threads on the
bottom side of the fixture which should be used. In addition the top of the base
is marked with a FRONT arrow allowing consistent orientation during
installation.

3.1.1 Operating on the Floor (Upright)
The
I
IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON N X X1 1
is fitted with 4x solid
rubber feet which allows a stable standing
of the fixture. An additional securing is
usually not required. Please pay attention
to an even and gripping surface.
3.1.2 Mounting in hanging position
To operate the
I
IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON N X X1 1
in a hanging position please use a half-
coupler (clamp). This can be mounted directly to the bottom side of the
fixture. It should be attached centrically with a M10 mm thread bolt (max.
length 11mm).
Attention: Never use a longer bolt as this may damage the interior
of the fixture.

3.1.3 Mounting in sideways Position
To operate the
I
IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON N X X1 1
in a sideways position please use two
half-couplers (clamps) attached to the bottom side of the base. They
should be attached with M10 mm thread bolts (max. length 11mm).
This technique is necessary to cope with the torque which accrues in this
mounting position. Never use the "Mounting in hanging position" technique
described above to fasten the fixture in the sideways position. A safe and
sound installation cannot be assured in this way. In addition this can
damage the fixture base.
Attention: Always use two (2) half-couplers for sideway mounting.

3.2 Securing the Fixture
Regardless of the mounting method of the
I
IM MP PR RE ES SS SI IO ON N X X1 1
you'll have to use
a stipulated safety wire. Attach the safety wire through one of the two holes
provided on the base of the fixture and connect it to the primary support
structure. Pay attention to a safe and proper fastening. The safety cable must
comply with BGI 810-3 (EN 60598-2-17 Section 17.6.6) and be capable of
bearing a static suspended load that is ten times the weight of the fixture and all
installed accessories.
3.3 Connections
3.3.1 Power Supply
~100-240 Volt AC, 50-60 Hz, powerCON AC connector
Connected load 85 VA (W)  T2A (micro-fuse 5x20mm)
Please also see the printing on the case!
Disconnect from the mains supply for changing the fuse and use only
the above described micro-fuse type.
3.3.2 NEUTRIK

powerCON
The IMPRESSION X1 is fitted with NEUTRIKpowerCON locking 3
conductor AC connectors.
The grey connector must be used to draw AC mains power from the fixtures`
throughput sockets and the blue connectors must be used to supply power at
the fixtures` power input socket.
The total number of fixtures in one interconnected chain depends on your local
AC mains voltage but you must never connect more than a total load of 20A to
stay within the limits of the connector. The total load includes all connected
fixtures including the first one in the chain.
Note: The maximum allowed total -
load is 20A including the first fixture
in one interconnected daisy chain.
