When unpacking and before disposing of the carton check there is no transportation
damag e before using the unit . Should there be any damage caused by transportation,
consult your dealer and do not use the unit.
The projector is for indoor use only, IP20. Use only in dry locations. Keep this device away
from rain and moisture, excessive heat, humidity and dust. Do not allow contact with water
or any other liquids.
The projector is not designed or intended to be mounted on to inflammable surfaces.
The projector is only intended for installation, operation and maintenance by qualified
personnel.
The projector must be installed in a location with adequate ventilation, at least 50cm from
adjacent wall surfaces. Be sure that no ventilation slots are blocked.
Do not project the beam onto inflammable surfaces, minimum distance is 5 m. 5 m
Avoid direct exposure to the light from the lamp. The light is harmful to the eye.
Do not attempt to dismantle and/or modify the projector in any way.
Electrical connection must only be carried out by qualified personnel.
Before installation, ensure that the voltage and frequency of power supply match the power
requirements of the projector.
It is essential that each projector is correctly earthed and that electrical installation
conforms to all relevant standards.
Do not connect this device to any other types of dimmer apparatus.
Make sure that the powercord is never crimped or damaged by sharp edges. Never let the
powercord come into contact with other cables. Only handle the powercord by the plug.
Never pull out the plug by tugging the powercord.
Keep the lamp clean. Do not touch the lamp glass with bare hand.
The projector should always be installed with a secondary safety fixing. A safety cord is
supplied for this; it should be attached as shown in “ installing the projector ” section.
The lamp used in this projector is a PHLIPS MSR 1200 SA/DE discharge lamp. After
switching off don ’ t attempt to restart the projector until lamp has cooled, this will require
approx 15 minutes. Switching the lamp on and off at short intervals will reduce the life of
both the lamp and the projector. But occasional breaks will prolong the life of the lamp and
projector.
Never run the projector without a lamp.
There is no user serviceable parts inside the projector, do not open the housing and never
operate the projector with the covers removed.
Always disconnect from the mains, when the device is not in use or before cleaning it
or before attempting any maintenance work.
If you have any questions, don ’ t hesitate to consult your dealer or manufac tu rer.

Take 2 clamps and 2 safety cords out from the package and mount 2 clamps on the

structure and fasten the screws attached to each clamp. (Read the WARNING on the
underside of the base as shown above) To pass 2 SAFETY CORDS through 4 HOLES for
safety! Always ensure that the projector is firmly anchored to avoid vibration and slipping
whilst functioning. Always ensure that the structure that you are going to mount the
projector is secure and is strong enough to support a weight of PILOT 1200 WASH.
WARNING: 1. Unlock the PAN and TILT before the 1
st
application of projector for safety.
2. The projector MUST be lifted or carried by the HANDLES instead of clamps.

Loosen 2 nuts at the both ends of lamp and take out the wornout lamp. Suggest to free one
end after another.
Fit new lamp and fasten 2 nuts at the both ends of lamp. Notes: don ’ t touch the bulb of the
new lamp with bare hand so as not to influence the beam output; the PST (pumping stem tip
off) on the bulb facing the rear cover with fans perpendicularly and bein g not in the beam ’ s
way is a must and aids cooling.
Close the rear cover and fasten 2 M5 screws.
WARNING: The MSR series are highpressure lamps with external igniters ( ). Care
should always be taken when handling these lamps. Always read the manufacturers
"Instructions for use" enclosed with the lamp.

Connect the power cord as follows:
L (live) =brown
E (earth) = yellow/green
N (neutral) = blue
Use the plug provided to connect the mains power to the projector paying attention to the
voltage and frequency marked on the panel of the projector. It is recommended that each
projector be supplied separately so that they may be individually switched on or off.
IMPORTANT
It is essential that each projector is correctly earthed and the electrical installation
conforms to all relevant standards. Power consumption of the PILOT 12 00 WASH is
1380 W.
Connection between controller and projector and between one projector and another must
be made with 2 corescreened cable, with each core having at least a 0.5mm diameter.
Connection to and from the projector is via cannon 3 pin (which are included with t he
projector) or 5 pin XLR plugs and sockets. The XLR's are connected as shown in the figure
above.
Note: care should be taken to ensure that none of the pins touch the metallic body of the
plug or each other. The body of the plug is not connected in any way. The PILOT 1200
WASH accepts digital control signals in protocol DMX512 (1990).
Connect the controller ’ s output to the first fixture ’ s input, and connect the first fixture ’ s
output to the second fixture ’ s input and connect the rest fixtures in the same way.
Eventually connect the last fixture ’ s output to a DMX terminator as shown in the figure
below.

In the Controller mode, at the last fixture in the chain , the DMX output has to be connected
with a DMX terminator. This prevents electrical noise from disturbing and corrupting the
DMX control signals.
The DMX terminator is simply an XLR connector with a 120 (ohm) resistor connected
across pins 2 and 3, which is then plugged into the output socket on the last projector in the
chain. The connections are illustrated below.

Pan ’ s belts
Free 2 screws on Pan assembly ’ s
maintenance door and open the door;
change the belts; close the door and fasten
the screws.
Tilt ’ s belts
The common users replacing the belts is not
recommended.
If the projector ’ s lens becomes damaged or broken it should be replaced. If the lamp
becomes damaged or deformed in any way it must be replaced. If the light from the lamp
appears dim this would normally indicate that it is reaching the end of its life an d it should
be changed at once, aged lamps run to the extremity of their life might explode. If the
projector does not function, check the fuses on the power socket of the projector, they
should only be replaced by fuses of the same specification . Should these be damaged call a
qualified technician before replacement. The projector has thermal protection device that
will switch off the projector in case of overheating, should either of these operate, check
that the fans are not blocked, and if the y are dirty clean them before switching on the
projector again. Check that the fans are operational, if not call a qualified technician.
Any maintenance work should only be carried out by qualified technicians.
To ensure linear motion of the lens, it is recommended that the 3 shafts for the focusing
lens holder be lubricated periodically, preferably every two months. Use only high quality,
hightemperature resistant grease instead of any type of oil.
To ensure the reliability of the projector it should be kept clean. It is recommended that the
fans should be cleaned every 15 days. The lens and dichroic colour filters should also be
regularly cleaned to maintain an optimum light output. Do NOT use any type of solvent on
dichroic colour filters.
Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates: damp, smoke
or particularly dirty surroundings can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the unit ’ s optics.
A soft cloth and typical glass cleaning products should be used in cle aning. It is
recommended to clean the external optics at least once every 20 days and clean the
internal optics at least once every 30 / 60 days.
Do not use any organic solvent, e.g. alcohol, to clean the reflector mirror, dichroic
colour filters or housing of the apparatus.
