Overview

Installation
Read ‘Safety information’ before installing the xture.
The xture is designed for indoor use only and must be used in a dry location with adequate ventilation.
Ensure that none of the xture’s ventilation slots are blocked.
Fasten the xture to a secure structure or surface. Do not stand it on a surface or leave it where it can be
moved or fall over. If you install the xture in a location where it may cause injury or damage if it falls, se-
cure it as directed in this user manual using a securely anchored safety cable that will hold the xture if
the primary fastening method fails.
Fastening the xture to a at surface
The xture can be fastened to a hard, xed, at surface that is oriented at any angle. Ensure that the sur-
face and all fasteners used can support at least 10 times the weight of all xtures and equipment to be
installed on it.
Fasten the xture securely. Do not stand it on a surface or leave it where it can be moved or fall over. If
you install the xture in a location where it may cause injury or damage if it falls, secure it as directed be-

5Version 1.1www.hotion.com
low with a securely anchored safety cable that will hold the xture if the primary fastening method fails.
Mounting the xture on a truss
The xture can be clamped to a truss or similar rigging structure in any orientation. When installing the
xture hanging vertically down, you can use an open-type clamp such as a G-clamp. When installing in
any other orientation, you must use a half-coupler clamp that completely encircles the truss chord.
To clamp the xture to a truss:
1. Check that the rigging structure can support at least 10 times the weight of all xtures and equip-
ment to be installed on it.
2. Block access under the work area.
3. Fold the legs of the mounting bracket together and bolt a rigging clamp securely to the mounting
bracket. The bolt used must be M10, grade 8.8 steel minimum. It must pass through both mounting
bracket legs and be fastened with a self-locking nut.
4. Working from a stable platform, hang the xture with its clamp on the truss and fasten the clamp se-
curely.
5. Secure the xture with a safety cable as directed below.
Securing with a safety cable
Secure the xture with a safety cable (or other secondary attachment) that is approved for the weight of
the xture so that the safety cable will hold the xture if a primary attachment fails.
Loop the safety cable through the eyebolt in the back of the xture and around a secure anchoring point.
Do not loop the safety cable around the xture’s mounting bracket only, as this will leave the xture unse-
cured if it separates from the bracket.
DMX-512 connection/connection between xtures
Occupation of the XLR-connection:
1. Group
2. Signal (-)
3. Signal (+)
DMX OUT
1. Group
2. Signal (-)
3. Signal (+)
DMX IN
If you are using controllers with this occupation, you can connect the DMX-output of the controller direct-
ly with the DMX-input of the rst xture in the DMX-chain. If you wish to connect DMX-controllers with
other XLR-outputs, you need to use adapter-cables.
Building a serial DMX-chain:
Connect the DMX-output of the rst xture in the DMX-chain with the DMX-input of the next xture.
Always connect one output with the input of the next xture until all xtures are connected.
DMX-512 connection with DMX terminator:
For installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance or is in an electrically noisy environ-
ment, such as in a discotheque, it is recommended to use a DMX terminator. This helps in preventing
corruption of the digital control signal by electrical noise. The DMX terminator is simply an XLR plug with
a 120 resistor connected between pins 2 and 3, which is then plugged into the output XLR socket of the
last xture in the chain.

6Version 1.1www.hotion.com
Caution: At the last xture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 resis-
tor between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last
xture.
Power connection
Power Requirements
The Pioneer 200C zoom luminaire operates on 100 to 240 volts AC (+/- 10%, auto-ranging). The luminaire
contains an auto-ranging power supply.
Power linking between xtures:
The xture with powercon in and out socket. Connect the power out to the power in socket in the next x-
ture till all are connected.
Caution: maximum power linking - 8 units.
Connection with the mains:
Connect the device to the mains with the enclosed power supply cable.

Operation
The Pioneer 200C zoom can operate in different modes. In each mode you can run the xture as a stand
alone xture or in a master/slave conugration. This next section will detail the differences in the operat-
ing modes.

Addressing
All xtures should be given a DMX starting address when using a DMX signal, so that the correct xture
responds to the correct control signals. This digital starting address is the channel number from which
the xture starts to listen to the digital control information sent out from the DMX controller. The alloca-
tion of this starting address is achieved by setting the correct number on the display located on the base
of the device.
You can set the same starting address for all xtures or a group of xtures, or make different address for
each xture individually.
If you set the same address, all the units will start to listen to the same control signal from the same
channel number. In other words, changing the settings of one channel will affect all the xtures simulta-
neously.
If you set a different address, each unit will start to listen to the channel number you have set, based on
the quantity of control channels of the unit. That means changing the settings of one channel will affect
only the selected xture.
In the case of the Pioneer 200C zoom, which is 3/4/5/6/12 channels xture. If you set, for example, the
address in the 3 channel mode to channel 4, the device will use the channel 4 to 7 for control.
Universal DMX Control
This function allows you to use a universal DMX-512 controller to control the dimmer and strobe. A DMX
controller allows you to create unique programs tailored to your individual needs.
RDM control
The Pioneer 200C zoom can communicate using RDM (Remote Device Management) in accordance with
ESTA’s American National Standard E1.20-2006: Entertainment Technology RDM Remote Device Man-
agement Over DMX512 Networks.
RDM is a bi-directional communications protocol for use in DMX512 control systems, it is the open stan-
dard for DMX512 device conguration and status monitoring.
The RDM protocol allows data packets to be inserted into a DMX512 data stream without affecting ex-
isting non-RDM equipment. It allows a console or dedicated RDM controller to send commands to and
receive messages from specic xtures.

8Version 1.1www.hotion.com
With RDM function, you can set the DMX address of your xtures remotely. This is especially useful when
the device is installed in a remote area.
Each Pioneer 200C zoom has a factory set RDM UID (unique identication number).

Fixture Cleaning
Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the internal and external optical lenses and mirror should
be carried out periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in
which the xture operates (I.e. smoke, fog residue, dust, dew). In heavy club use we recommend cleaning
on a monthly basis. Periodic cleaning will ensure longevity, and crisp output.
To clean the xture:
1. Disconnect the xture from power and allow it to cool for at least 10 minutes.
2. Vacuum or gently blow away dust and loose particles from the outside of the xture with low-pres-
sure compressed air.
3. Clean the surfaces by wiping gently with a soft, clean lint-free cloth moistened with a weak detergent
solution. Do not rub glass surfaces hard: lift particles off with a soft repeated press. Dry with a soft,
clean, lint-free cloth or low-pressure compressed air. Remove stuck particles with an unscented tis-
sue or cotton swab moistened with glass cleaner or distilled water.
4. Check that the xture is dry before reapplying power.
Fuse Replacement
This fuse is located in a fuseholder next to the MAINS OUT socket on the connections panel.
To replace a fuse:
1. Disconnect the xture from power and allow it to cool for at least 10 minutes.
2. Unscrew the cap of the fuseholder and remove the fuse. Replace with a fuse of the same size and
rating only.
3. Reinstall the fuseholder cap before reapplying power.
Troubleshooting
Listed below are a few common problems that you may encounter, with solutions.
The xture does not work, no light
• Check the connection of power and main fuse. Be sure the external fuse has not blown.
• Measure the mains voltage on the main connector.
