SAFETY WARNINGS AND NOTICES
Read this user manual in full before attempting to install, operate or maintain the fixture to which it relates. This
user manual is intended to provide general guidance to such suitably qualified personnel. Installation and opera-
tion of the fixture are to be performed by qualified personnel only.
When using electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed including the following:
READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
• For indoor, dry location use only. Do not use outdoors unless fixture is suitably IP rated.
• Use safety tether when mounting.
• Equipment should be mounted in locations and at heights where it will not be readily subjected to
tampering by unauthorized personnel.
• Not for residential use. Do not use this equipment for other than intended use.
• Note distance requirement(s) from combustible materials or illuminated objects. Do not mount near gas
or electric heaters.
• Install only in locations with adequate ventilation. Ensure sure that ventilation slots are not blocked.
• Ensure that the voltage and frequency of the power supply match the power requirements of the
fixture.
• The fixture must be earthed/grounded to the appropriate conductor.
• Do not operate fixture outside the specified ambient temperature range.
• Do not connect the fixture to any dimmer pack.
• The use of accessory equipment not recommended by the manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition
and void warranty.
• Refer service to qualified personnel. This fixture contains no user serviceable parts.
• Prior to first use, carefully inspect fixture to ensure no damage has occurred during shipping.
• Materials used in the manufacturing process can cause strong odors when the product is new. These
odors dissipate over time.
• Prior to each use, carefully inspect power cables and replace any damaged cables.
• Exterior surfaces of the luminaire will be hot during operation. Take appropriate precautions.
• Continuous use of the fixture may shorten the lifespan. Power down the fixture when not in use.
• Do not cycle power on and o repeatedly. Disconnect mains power if the fixture is not used for an
extended period.
• Clean fixtures regularly, particularly when working in a dusty environment.
• Never touch power cables or wires while the fixture is powered on.
• Avoid entangling power wires with other cables.
• In the event of a serious operating problem, immediately discontinue using the fixture.
• It is hazardous to operate luminaires without lens or shield. Shields, lenses, or ultraviolet screens shall be
changed if they have become visibly damaged to such an extent that their eectiveness is impaired, for
example, by cracks or deep scratches.
• Original packing materials can be reused for transporting the fixture.
• Do not look directly at the LED light beam while the fixture is on.
• This is a Class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference, in which
case, the user may be required to take adequate measures.
• The light source contained in this luminaire shall only be replaced by the manufacturer or service agent
or similarly qualified person.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING: Refer to National Electrical Code® and local codes for cable specifications. Failure to use proper
cable can result in damage to equipment or danger to personnel. Caution Against Direct Sunlight Through Front
Lens Assembly

USER MANUAL

CAUTION AGAINST DIRECT SUNLIGHT THROUGH FRONT LENS ASSEMBLY
The design and nature of the front lens assembly in Vari-Lite LLC luminaires is to eciently focus the light ener-
gy from the luminaire’s lamp for maximum light output.
• When the front lens assembly is exposed to direct sunlight or intense light from neighboring fixtures,
the lens will collect and intensify this light and focus it back into the fixture. Intense sunlight or beams
from other fixtures can cause damage to internal assemblies contained within the fixture.
• When fixture is not in use and direct sunlight or other intense light is present, position luminaires so
their front lens assembly it not directly exposed to the light source.
CAUTION AGAINST POWERING LUMINAIRES FROM DIMMER CIRCUITS
It is not recommended to power any Vari-Lite LLC luminaire from a dimmer - even in ‘NONDIM’ mode. Dimmer
and non-dim modules are not suitable sources of power because their output modifies the AC wave form. This
may work for a short time, but eventually results in power problems, luminaire mis-operation and/or failure.
• When using a power distribution rack, do not use dimmer or non-dim modules to power any
Vari-Lite LLC luminaire. Damage to the luminaire can occur.
• Using a dimmer or non-dim module to power your Vari-Lite LLC luminaire will void your luminaire’s
warranty.
CAUTION AGAINST THE USE OF THIRD PARTY PARTS OR ACCESSORIES
• Heat and heat distribution are important factors when operating Vari-Lite LLC luminaires. Vari-Lite LLC
luminaires are designed to dissipate heat eciently and safely. Any blockages or obstructions, such
as aftermarket baes, covers, enclosures, etc. can interrupt the luminaire’s ability to dissipate heat
properly and can damage the luminaire.
• Vari-Lite LLC cannot be responsible for issues arising from non-approved parts and accessories installed
on or used with any Vari-Lite LLC product. Customers of such products should contact the manufacturer
directly for assistance and support.
TRANSPORTING LUMINAIRES
When shipping or transporting luminaires, Vari-Lite LLC recommends that the luminaire(s) be suciently pro-
tected against any (including, but not limited to) shock, vibration, drops, jarring, exposure to the environment,
etc.
Failure to suciently protect any Vari-Lite LLC luminaire during shipping or transportation will result in damage
and void the luminaire’s warranty. Vari-Lite LLC will not be responsible for any shipping damage or breakage of
any product under any circumstances. Vari-Lite LLC will not be responsible for any third party case manufactur-
er’s cases.
NOTE: As with all automated luminaires, proper handling and suitable protective shipping cases should be
used when transporting fixtures to reduce the risk of damage.
TRANSPORTATION AND SHIPPING CASE REQUIREMENTS
Cases to transport Vari-Lite LLC luminaires should meet the following loading requirements:
• Luminaire head, yoke, and enclosure sub-assemblies shall be equally supported and constrained where
no one sub-assembly (head, yoke, or enclosure) fully supports the entire mass of the luminaire.
• The interior of the case shall be of high quality and uniform density foam. The foam shall be of the same
type and density throughout as to equally and uniformly support loading at every contact surface.
• The case shall, when laid on any of its six (6) surfaces, maintain the loading requirements outlined
above.
• All cases not meeting the aforementioned loading requirements, with wheels, shall have markings
on the exterior of the case that the unit is to be transported on it wheels only (e.g. “Case must be
transported and remain [at all times] on its wheels”).

TROUBLESHOOTING
The following are a few common problems that may occur during operation.
Luminaire does not work; light and fan do not turn on.
• Check power connection and main fuse.
• Measure the mains voltage on the main connector.
Not responding to DMX controller.
• If DMX LED is not illuminated, verify that the DMX cables are properly connected.
• If the DMX LED is illuminated and there is no response, verify DMX address settings and the DMX
polarity.
• If you experience intermittent DMX signal problems, check the pins on the connectors or on the PCB.
• Test with a dierent DMX controller.
• Check if the DMX cables run near or alongside high voltage cables that may cause interference to the
DMX interface circuit.
CLEANING
Cleaning the inside of the luminaire must be carried out periodically in order to optimize the light output.Clean-
ing frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates. Damp, smoky or particularly dusty
surroundings can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the fixture’s optics.
• Clean with a soft cloth using glass cleaning fluid.
• Dry parts carefully.
• Clean the external optics at least every 30 days.

All Vari-lite and Strand lighting luminaires are governed by the same fan
speed versus noise levels and maximum power output rules as detailed
below. The noise related to these levels conforms to noise criteria levels
detailed within the document.
There are three control parameters that can can be selected separately or
in conjunction when permitted to manage fan speed versus noise levels
and maximum power output.
NOTE: Not all fixture have all modes or functions. Refer to DMX map and/
or user interface menu tree to verify the modes and functions in your
fixture.
FAN VERSUS OUTPUT PRESET MODES
These modes are selectable at either / or the fixtures DMX control chan-
nel or via the fixture user interface screen.
Boost mode – LED output boosted to >120% of standard output fan
speeds increased manage heat level of LED (may be limited to only run
for XXhrs). Fixture will not exceed NC45 – NC55 sound levels in this mode
Standard mode - Full LED Output + Fan Spin at top speed (loudest set-
ting). Fixture will not exceed NC40 sound levels in this mode.
Studio mode - Fan speed reduced to appropriate amount to reduce
dB levels >10% of full speed + LED @ max output approximately 80%
of Standard output at appropriate level to ensure LED work at optimum
temperature and output eciency (fan speed remains at a constant speed and do not ramp up or down) NC35.
Whisper mode - Fan speed reduced to appropriate amount to reduce dB levels to >30% of the full speed + LED Max out-
put approximately 60% of Standard output at appropriate level to ensure LED work at optimum temperature and output
eciency (Fan speed remains at a constant speed and do not ramp up or down) NC25.
Silent mode – ideally Fans do not spin + output capped at appropriate level to ensure LED work at optimum temperature
and output eciency (Fan should never switch on in this mode or change speed if they on) NC15 target level.
