Adjustment of Projector Body Angle
As shown in the two pictures HYPERCOLOR 575 can be adjusted to any possible angle. Utilizing the Optional
anchoring point the projector can easily adapt itself to any mounting situation like theatre and television ceiling
applications or standard stage utilizations.
Once installed or any time you change position of the unit,
- Make sure the projector is correctly mounted at the new angle and that the cables are not too tighter in the new
position
Working Position
Hypercolor 575 can work in any position.
Mechanical Safety Guards
A bipolar cut-off switch is located between the lamp compartment and the cooling unit. This safety switch cuts off
the power to the projector if the top lid is opened.
Noise Level
After the projector has been powered up and the initial configuration takes place, the noise produced by the
projector is primarily due to its cooling system. The noise level is much lower than the limit of 70 dB as permitted
by the law.
Packing
The projector is shipped and delivered in a cardboard box made of KRAFT cardboard and semi-chemical additive-
free paper, in compliance with BSFV Class 3 standards for waste disposal. The projector is completely assembled,
placed in the box inside a polyethylene bag and held firmly in place with preformed polyester packing material. The
box is stapled shut. The package can not be exposed to inclement weather or humidity.

No more than three identical boxes can be stacked one on top of the other.
Keep the original packing for possible shipments in the future.
Storage
The projector, in its original packing, must be kept in covered, dry areas with a temperature between -10° C and
+50° C.
Handling
The projector, with or without packing, must be handled with care. Lifting and handling must be carried out with
special equipment. Do not expose the projector, with or without its packing, to brusque accelerated or decelerated
movements, knocks, dragging, or other stress caused by unsuitable handling methods.
IMPORTANT
The projector in its packing can be seriously damaged if it falls or suffers a blow during transportation.
HANDLE WITH CARE!
START-UP PROCEDURES
Positioning and Installation
Follow these steps for opening the package and installing the projector on its working position:
· Place the projector near the place it will be installed.
· Open the package and remove anchoring elements and accessories.
· Carefully read the instructions in the manual.
· Prepare suitable hooks for the anchoring brackets and auxiliary support.
· Using suitable lifting equipment, place the projector up against the hooks.
· Tighten the M12 bolts and insert a device to prevent them from accidentally loosening.
· Attach the auxiliary support element and make sure it is tightly fastened.
· Make sure all adjustable parts are locked firmly in place in the desired position.
CAUTION
You must verify the stability of the anchoring elements when the projector is in working condition. In compliance
with the laws in force, the anchoring support must withstand a load of 170 kg. Screws, hooks, and hardware must
be inserted correctly and installed to prevent them from accidentally loosening.
IMPORTANT
The projector was designed to function when attached to the bracket. The projector cannot function sitting upon a
flat surface that obstructs the rear cooling vents. Do not install the projector where there are objects located at a
distance of less than 20 centimetres from the cooling system.
Lamp installation
· Loosen the two knobs that close the top lid.
· Remove the lamp from the packing and carefully read the Manufacturer’s instructions.
· Position the new lamp into the socket without touching the glass with the hand or any other dirt or greasy thing.
· Reposition the top lid and firmly tighten the two knobs.
Admissible environmental Conditions
The projector was engineered and produced to function in covered, dry areas with an air temperature ranging
between 5° and 35°C, and with a humidity level between 30 and 90%. Sharp changes in room temperature may
generate condensation inside the projector, which can harm the projector. Therefore, switch on the projector only
after it has undergone a period of gradual adaptation to the room temperature.

CONNECTIONS
Power Supply
Use the cable provided inside the special junction box. The power line must be protected by a differential magneto
thermal circuit breaker, while metal parts that might be electrically charged through the projector must be grounded.
Hypercolor 575 absorbs 940W at 230V. Makes sure the projector does not pull the cable in all different working
positions, and that sources of heat are not placed in the vicinity.
When in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Don’t power the projector with a dimmer circuit
Be careful with your operations. With a high voltage you can suffer a dangerous electric shock when touching the
wires! Inside the projector, the ignitor circuit have very high voltage, over 5Kv.
The User must ensure that the power supply is provided with a highly sensitive differential circuit breaker 30m/A to
protect the projector from indirect contacts, and that the grounding system PE is working properly.
Control Unit
HYPERCOLOR Projectors can be controlled by practically all types of controllers on the market that can execute the standard
DMX 512 protocol. Controller-projector and projector-projector connections require a two-core screened cable provided with
CANNON XLR 3 pin plugs and sockets. The ground braid on the screened cable must be connected to just one end of the
cable. The projector and cables must not be installed near overhead ducts for electrical cables or intense magnetic fields.
Projector Address
To make sure the projector functions properly, the dip-switches in the DMX ADDRESS AREA, on the rear panel(page 3,
object#7), must be correctly configured. Keep in mind that each HYPERCOLOR occupies 6 DMX channels . Each projector
must be set separately on its own BASE CHANNEL (or STARTING CHANNEL). The BASE CHANNEL assignment is obtained
by summing the values for each switch in the DMX SECTION (for example, to set a projector on BASE CHANNEL #39, you
must set dip-switches 32, 4, 2, and 1 to the ON position, because 32+4+2+1=39). In the Standard Operating Mode, this means
the HYPERCOLOR will receive signals on 6 channels following the BASE CHANNEL, BASE CHANNEL included (for example,
if the projector is set on BASE CHANNEL #39, it will receive signals on channels #39, 40, 41, 42, 43 and 44).
RESET procedure
To enable RESET proc. keep a stable DMX signal between 240 and 250 on all 6 channels for 5 seconds.
Do not forget to change the values after the reset start to avoid the continuous reset procedure.

STAND-ALONE FUNCTIONS
HYPERCOLOR can work in Stand-alone both single and in banks, that means without the need of a control unit, in
Master/Slave function, since any luminaries can be Master of a bank, it becomes able to control synchronously all
the other HYPERCOLOR fixtures and to manage a menu for a total of 6 options.
To make the HYPERCOLOR operating in Stand-alone mode, you must put in position ON the dip-switch 10. This
enable the projector to start its own program.
With HYPERCOLOR, once in stand-alone functioning, you just connect the DMX cable starting from the DMX OUT
(see page 2 object n°5) and the unit will perform the same program to all the other units.
All the “Slave” fixtures must be addressed on DMX 001. This means with the dip-switch 1 in position ON and all the
other dip-switches in OFF position.
Putting the dip-switch n°10 in position ON enable the unit to work in stand-alone functioning performing
the menu of channel 6 (see page 6).
Practically the DMX value is setted directly through the dip-switches value.
EXAMPLES
- The first 5 dip switches set the speed of the colour sequences (increasing from 1 to 31 binary code)
- The switches 6 –7 – 8 set the colours change mode, combining the 3 dip switches we can obtain 7 different colour
sequences:
from colour 1 to colour 4 (fading) = 32
from colour 1 to colour 4 (no fading) = 64
from colour 2 to colour 4 (fading) = 96 (32+64)
from colour 2 to colour 4 (no fading) = 128
from colour 2 to colour 7 (fading) = 160 (32+128)
from colour 1 to colour 7 (fading) = 192 (64+128)
from colour 1 to colour 7 (no fading) = 224 (32+64+128)
EX 1: Dip-switch 10 in position ON
Medium speed, the binary code is 1+2+8 = 11
Colour change from 1 to 4, whit fading, the binary code is 32
EX 2: Dip-switch 10 in position ON
Medium speed, the binary code is 2+8 = 10
Colour change from 2 to 7, whit fading, the binary code is 32+128=160
