2. Safety instructions
CAUTION: Disconnect the device from the power supply before opening
the device. Touching live parts (high voltage) can cause an electric
shock.
Make sure that the mains voltage to be connected is not higher than the voltage indicated on
the type plate. This device should only be operated with the power source specified on the
type plate.
If you are not sure what type of power supply you have, contact your dealer or your power
company.
Always disconnect the device from the power supply before carrying out cleaning work,
changing fuses or replacing parts.
The mains plug must always be accessible after installation of the spotlight. Do not overload
the sockets or extension cords under any circumstances, as this could lead to fire or electric
shock. Do not place any objects on the power cord. Do not install the spotlight in such a way
that people can trip over the power cord or step on it. Make sure that the power cord can
never be crushed or damaged by sharp edges. Check the unit and the power cord from time
to time.
Always leave maintenance work to a qualified technician.
ATTENTION: This light corresponds to protection class I. Therefore this
light must be connected to a mains socket with earthing contact.
Never connect this device to a dimmable power source.
Some smoke and odor may be produced during initial operation. This is a normal procedure
and does not necessarily mean that the unit is defective.
The device becomes hot during operation. Never touch the device with bare hands during
operation!
When replacing fuses, only use fuses of the same type with identical values. Have fuses
replaced only by a qualified technician.

ATTENTION: EYE DAMAGE! Do not look into the light source for a long
time during operation. This can be harmful to the eyes. Possibly
dangerous radiation.
If the device was exposed to strong temperature fluctuations (e.g. after transport), the device
must not be switched on immediately. The resulting condensation water can damage your
device. Leave the device switched off until it has reached room temperature.
Do not shake or bump the device. Avoid brute force during installation or operation.
This spotlight is designed for indoor use only. Do not expose this unit to rain or moisture.
When choosing the installation location, make sure that the device is not exposed to extreme
heat, humidity or dust.
Ventilation openings and slots in the head and foot of the spotlight are provided for
ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the device and protect it from overheating, these
openings must not be covered.
Never cover the front lens when the headlight is in use.
The openings should never be covered with fabrics or other objects so that the airways are
blocked.
This unit must not be operated in an environment without adequate ventilation.
The device may only be operated when the housing is closed and all screws / omega snap
connectors are tightened.
The device must always be secured with an additional safety device.
Make sure that the area underneath the spotlight is clear during installation, conversion and
dismantling.
ATTENTION: The distance between the light emission and the
illuminated surface must be at least 1.0 meter.
The front lens must be replaced if it is visibly damaged so that its
function is impaired, e.g. by cracks or deep scratches!
To avoid damaging the internal parts of the lamp base, never let sunlight
shine directly into the front lens.
The maximum ambient temperature of 45°C must not be exceeded.

Do not operate the device until you have familiarized yourself with its functions. Prevent
operation by persons who are not qualified to use the device. Most damage is the result of
improper operation!
Please use the original packaging or specially adapted flight cases when transporting the
device.
3. Unpacking the device
Contents of the package: The headlight, a Powercon TrueoOne connection cable, a base
plate and Omega brackets for mounting.
Open the packaging carefully on the top side and check the headlight and accessories for
possible transport damages. These should be reported immediately to the transport
company.
4. Installation
The device comes with a ready made-up Powercon TrueOne connection cable. Please use
only the supplied cable or a cable of the same type assembled by a specialist. The
connection of the device to the power supply must also be carried out by an authorized
specialist.
Connection in Germany/Europe:
Connected loads: voltage 100-240 V, frequency 50 - 60 Hz, power max. 450 VA
The electrical safety as well as the function of the device is only guaranteed if it is connected
to a properly installed protective conductor system. It is very important that this basic safety
requirement is present. In case of doubt, have the electrical installation checked by a
specialist. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage caused by a missing or
interrupted protective conductor (e.g. electric shock)! Only use the device in a completely
assembled state so that no electrical components can be touched. (danger 100-240 V)
If you have observed the listed points, you can plug in the devices or have them connected to
the mains by a specialist.

ATTENTION: The spotlight may light up immediately if standalone
operation is activated or a DMX signal is applied!
5. DMX-Connection
The DMX cabling (signal lines) should be done with a 2-wire cable with shielding. We
recommend a DMX cable with 110 Ohm, 2x0,22mm2or 4x0,22mm2. The plugs and sockets
are 3-pin XLR-connectors, which can be purchased in specialized shops.
Pin assignment:
Pin1 = Ground / Shielding
Pin2 = DMX -
Pin3 = DMX +
The spotlight has a DMX-in and DMX-out connection. Now connect the DMX output of your
controller to the first spotlight (Controller DMX-Out -> Spotlight DMX-In). Then connect the
first spotlight with the second spotlight and so on. In some cases it is advisable to plug in a
so called end plug/end resistor (XLR plug with a resistor of 120 Ohm between pin 2 and pin
3). Whether or not an end plug is required depends on various factors, including the cable
lengths used and the number of units. However, as long as there are no problems in the DMX
line, it is not necessary.

6. Mounting the device
The spotlight can either be positioned or suspended from a truss system. Horizontal
mounting to the truss is also permitted.
If you place the unit on the floor, you may only operate the unit on a hard surface, as the air
inlets in the foot must remain free!
To hang the unit on a truss system, use the Omega-Clamps with snap connectors supplied.
Make sure that the snap connectors engage securely. Make sure that the truss construction
on which you mount the device complies with the safety regulations. When installing a truss,
always secure the spotlight with a safety device that complies with the national regulations.
Use the safety eyelet on the device for this purpose.
