Introduction
Dear custo er,
we gratefully thank you for purchasing our product!
You acquired a product which is state of the art and eets all require ents of the national
and european standards. The confor ity is proofed.
To ensure this state and a safe operation, you have to obverse this anual and especially
the operating and saftey instructions.
Appropriate use
The otoryoke was designed to ove a headlight, speaker, bea er or so ething like
that.
The outdoor use is li ited, because the housing is spray water proof but not co pletely
sealed.
The contact to water should be avoided.
The use of cleaning fluids should be avoided, this could lead to da ages.
For cleaning use a dry, lintfree towel or rag.
The co plete product ust not be odified and opened.
The safety and operating instructions ust be observed.
The Licht-Technik motoryoke YipMan
With the Licht-Technik otoized yoke, we can offer an flexible, versatile, precise, durable
and reliable device for positioning of different devices.
Co pany Licht-Technik developes otoryokes since 1991 for fil , TV an theatre lighting.
Only high quality parts fro leading anufacturers are used.
The alu iniu housing supports high stability and quality with a low dead load.
The devices are anufactured with odern CNC achines. Therefore we can keep a
constant high quality level.
The noise is opti ized steadily to support an extre e quiet positioning.
We anufacture and develop the yokes in close cooperation with our custo ers to eet
their wishes and require ents.
The control is realized by the DMX- 12 USITT-interface. The rough and fine positioning
(16-Bit, two channels) and the speed for each ain-axis (PAN/TILT) can be controlled. In
addition, we can support a rotation function with one DMX-channel
The built in 32-Bit Processor provides a high throughput of the co puter, quick
positioning and unco plicated handling. Even when triggering several otoryokes the
precise control syste provides a high synchrony of the ove ent.

Because of the absolute value device, the otoryoke does not perfor any initialisation
runs after power up. In addition a power down does not affect the current position, also
because of the self-locking gearboxes.
The lighted LCD display (the light can be switched off) leads the user in plain text
instructions through the various progra ing steps. The instructions are available either
in english or ger an language.
The otoryoke has a echanical and electronical torque delimitation on the PAN and
rotation axle. The echanical torque li itation is realised with a friction clutch and
prevents a personal injury of people working on the yoke. Further ore the drives and
gearboxes will not be da aged (except Tilt-axle) when oving the yoke in case of power
off.
The electronical torque delimitation switches off the otors in case of blocking (e.g.
blocking because of oving onto a wall or decoration). The display shows an appropriate
error essage.
The controlling of the two ain axles (PAN and TILT) is done with 2 DMX-channels per
axle. With only one channel (8-Bit) a resolution of 256 steps could be realised. With two
channels (16-Bit) a resolution of 6 36 steps is possible. The first channels of each axle
represents the rough position infor ation (at 360° range of rotation about 1.4 degrees per
step). The second channel represents the fine position infor ation. The speed of the
otoryoke is deter ined with one channel (PAN and TILT together) or with two channels
(PAN and TILT separated).

Safety- and operating instructions
Danger to life!
Before opening the housing disconnect the device from the mains !!!
Do not try in any case to touch the electronic through openings, also with any objects.
This can cause an electrical accident that can lead to death!
Please note: The switching or rising/falling fro one input voltage range to another
during operation can lead to da age of the device!
When using a generator, first start the generator and wait for stable ains supply
voltage! After that switch on the power supply
When using a generator, leave the device switched off until the ains voltage and
frequency of the generator is stable. Starting the generator with switched on device will
da age the device!!!
The otoryokes are tested by the ger an trade association (Berufsgenossenschaft). The
devices confor with BGV C 1 and correspond to the newest safety regulations.
Never exceed the axi al possible load of the mounting point. (Rigg etc.)
Make sure that the maximum load of the fastening spigot will not be exceeded.
Never exceed the maximum load of the otoryoke. It is written on the identification plate
and in the technical data section, page .
The Motoryoke ust only be operated in the operating position provided for this
purpose. Operating position is vertically hanging down, fastening spigot on the top.
Make sure that all fixtures of the yoke are tightened. Observe the torque of the screws or
nuts.
Fast the headlight and all accessories like color changer, di er shutter and barndoor
with safety belts.
The user is responsible for the correct use of safety parts!
Make sure that all parts which are ounted on the headlight or oving devic are right
tightened.
Lever forces ust not have an effect on the Motoryoke. This eans that the installed
otoryoke ust not be shifted or bended! It is also forbidden when fastening spigot is
opened.
6 Motoryoke YipMan1 V4.58 Rev 1.00

That applies also to the transport. It is absolutely forbidden to hang up the yoke on its
spigot when transported!
If you want to use a transport carriage, it ust be certified by Licht-Technik!
The fastening spigot ust be checked visual once a year. The spigot ust be in right
angel to the housing. This ust be checked in front and side view. A protractor can be a
help.
Further ore, the spigot itself and the surface of the yoke ust not be defor ed. Make
sure that the spigot is not loose or unfor al.
If the spigot is visibly damaged or defor ed the otoryoke ust not be used any ore.
The device has to be sent to Licht-Technik.
A safety device that was once loaded or is visibly da aged must not be used any ore.
When working on the otoryoke, it ust be switched off or the power line ust be
interrupted. Make sure that the Motoryoke cannot be oved by the control panel.
The operator ust ake sure that no person is in the swivelling range of the otoryoke.
Infor your coworker and colleagues that the otoryoke is behaving like a work robot.
When the position is changed at the control panel the device is trying to ove on this
position. There is the danger of being bruised and get frightened.
Ad issible a bient temperature: 0..45 degree Celsius.
The otoryoke ust not be lit directly by a ounted la p. Li it the range of rotation
(TILT axle) so that the headlight does not shine on the otoryoke.
Check the whole swivelling range of the headlight. The anufacturers of the la ps specify
minimum permissible distances to infla able aterials. Make sure that these
distances are attended in every position of the la p.
The anufacturers of the la ps specify axi u inclination. HMI headlights are not
allowed to operate with the ignition electronic on the top.

90 degree

The otoryoke ust be kept dry. In case of water condensation a waiting period of up to
2 hours is necessary until accli atisation is reached.
If knobs for anual oving are ounted, they can only be used if the otoryoke is in
power off condition. If the device is switched on and the knobs are rotated anually the
otors and/or gearboxes can be da aged.
Make sure to ount the payload in the weight balancing point. The otoryoke ust only
be operated with balanced tilt, otherwise the otor and/or gearbox can be da aged.
Observe the right cabling. The cable-loop ust be wide enough and the correct cable-
route ust be observed. The cables with the safety belt are last fixed left beside the safety
hole of the otoryoke.
Wrong routed cables can lead to defective cables, because of the echanic and ther ic
influence!
Check the co plete pan moving range before starting the equip ent by turning by hand!
Too short cable loops can block the pan axis!
Never use the standard DMX-IN and the special control IN at the same ti e. Only one
can be used!
When it has to be assu ed that a safe operation is no longer possible, the equip ent
ust be switched off i ediately and be secured against unintended operation.
This is the case when
–the equip ent shows visible da ages
–the equip ent is no longer functional
–parts of the equip ent are loose or slackened
–connecting lines show visible da ages
Attention:
Before starting the equip ent the user ust check the usefulness of the device for its
intended use.
We reject every liability:
–Da ages and indirect da ages or every kind of costs, which result fro the use of
Licht-Technik products.
–Any da ages which result fro negligence, i proper use and setup, wrong setting into
operation and use, ignoring of valid safety regulations, unsuitable use, bad
aintenance of Licht-Technik products.
