1. SWITCH OFF MAINS ELECTRICAL SUPPLY.
2. PRIOR TO ELECTRICAL CONNECTION, PROCEED WITH MECHANICAL INSTALLATION BY FIRMLY FIXING YOKE ATO
OPTIONAL MOUNTING ACCESSORY OR DIRECTLY TO A MOUNTING SURFACE. THERE ARE 3 MOUNTING HOLES
PROVIDED ON THE YOKE FOR THIS PURPOSE, SEE DIMENSIONS IN SPECIFICATION SECTION.
3. ADJUST THE FIXTURE POSITION BY LOOSENING THE PROTRACTOR CLAMP LOCKING SCREW HAND THEN THE 2
MOUNTING KNOBS GON EITHER SIDE OF THE FIXTURE.
4. TILT THE FIXTURE TO ITS APPROXIMATE AMING POSITION.
5. TIGHTEN THE MOUNTING KNOBS GAND LOCKING CLAMP SCREW H(SEE TORQUE CHART).
6. CHECK THAT THE ELECTRICAL SUPPLY CONFORMS WITH THE RATINGS SHOWN ON THE FIXTURE LABEL AND
LEADS EXTENDING FROM THE FIXTURE. MAKE THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION INTO THE JUNCTION BOX.

ADJUSTING THE PROFILE PROJECTOR
1. SLIGHTLY LOOSEN THE FASTENERS J, DO NOT REMOVE THEM TURN THE PROFILE KTO THE LEFT AND CAREFULLY
REMOVE IT BY PULLING IT TOWARDS THE FRONT.
2. REMOVE THE TRANSPORT LOCK L FROM THE INSIDE OF THE PROFILE K.
3. THE RETAINER N WITH THE DESIRED INSERT ALWAYS REMAINS IN THE POSITION SET AT THE FACTORY. DO NOT
ADJUST ITS POSITION.

INSERT THE GOBO MINTO THE RETAINER N. TO DO SO, SLIDE THE RETENTION SPRINGS P OUTWARDS,
INSERT THE GOBO M, ALIGN AND SLIDE THE RETENTION SPRINGS PBACK INTO PLACE TO SECURE IT.
3.2. ZOOM SPOT PROJECTOR [ZP]
ONLY IF YOU HAVE ORDERED AN ADDITIONAL PERFRORATED GLARE SHIELD U, IS THIS SHIELD INSERTED,
ALIGNED, AND SECURED LIKE A GOBO MIN THE RETAINER N.

3.3. FRAMING PROJECTOR [FP]
THE CONTOUR OF THE EMITTED LIGHT MAY BE SET WITH THE FOUR SHUTTERS XBY USING THE
CONTOUR SLIDE IN THE RETAINER N. TO DO SO, UNSCREW THE FOUR KNURLED FASTENERS T3, SET THE
DESIRED CONTOUR BY MOVING THE SHUTTERS XAND TIGHTEN THE KNURLED FASTENERS T3.
4. TO SET THE IMAGE SIZE, LOOSEN THE KNURLED FASTNERS T1 ON THE ZOOM LENS QAND MOVE UNTIL THE
DESIRED SIZE HAS BEEN ACHIEVED.
5. TO FOCUS, LOOSENTHE FOCUS LENS RWITH THE KNURLED FASTENERS T2 AND MOVE UNTIL THE IMAGE IS
SHARPLY DELINEATED. TIGHTEN ALL KNURLED FASTENERS TAGAIN.
6. GOBO PROJECTOR [GP]
A SHUTTER SIS LOCATED DIRECTLY BEHIND THE ZOOM LENS Q. THIS IS DESIGNED TO IMPROVE THE QUALTIY OF
THE IMAGE (SHARPNESS) BUT REDUCES THE INTENSITY OF THE LIGHT.
THE SHUTTER SMAY BE SIMPLY REMOVED BY UNSCREWING THE FOUR FASTENERS WIF A HIGHER INTENSITY OF
LIGHT IS REQUIRED. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS MEASURE WILL REDUCE THE QUALITY OF THE IMAGE
(SHARPNESS), PARTICULARLY IN OUTER AREAS.
7. CLEAN THE LENSES WITH THE PROVIDED MICROFIBRE CLOTH.
8. MAKE SURE THAT THE LUMINAIRE IS COMPLETELY DRY INSIDE AND ALL GASKET AREAS ARE FREE OF DIRT.
9. CAREFULLY SLIDE THE PROFILE KOVER THE LENS, TURN IT TO THE RIGHT AND SECURE IT WITH THE FOUR
FASTENERS JONCE ALL THE DESIRED SETTINGS HAVE BEEN MADE.

ETC100-GB
BLOCKOUT INSTALLATION:
ATTENTION: PROVIDE PROPER DRAINAGE FOR APPLICATION, A SOIL PERCOLATION TEST SHOULD BE
PERFORMED TO DETERMINE IF PROPER DRAINAGE IS PRESENT.
1. PRIOR TO CONCRETE INSTALLATION, SET THE BLOCKOUT E/O IN AN ADEQUATE RECESS IN THE GROUND, ALONG
WITH THE POWER SUPPLY WIRING. THE MOUNTING RING ESHOULD BE SET FLUSH WITH THE FINISHED
PAVEMENT, BUT REMAIN AT A HIGHER ELEVATION THAN THE SURROUNDING AREA TO PREVENT WATER FROM
POOLING ON THE FIXTURE AFTER INSTALLATION IS COMPLETE. ARROW RSHOULD BE POINTED TOWARDS THE
OBJECT TO BE ILLUMINATED.

12
LUMINAIRE INSTALLATION:
1. SWITCH OFF MAINS ELECTRICAL SUPPLY.
2. CHECK THAT ELECTRICAL SUPPLY CONFORMS WITH THE RATINGS SHOWN ON THE FIXTURE.
3. MAKE THE SUPPLY CONNECTIONS WITH THE LUMINAIRE CABLE A.
4. REMOVE TWO SS MOUNTING SCREWS Q FROM THE MOUNTING RING E AND SET THE LUMINAIRE INTO THE
BLOCKOUT E/O.
5. REMOVE THE LENS FRAME G AND LENS/GASKET ASSEMBLY H/I BY REMOVING THE SIX FLATHEAD SCREWS J.
6. ATTACH LUMINAIRE TO THE MOUNTING RING E WITH THE TWO SCREWS REMOVED IN STEP 4 THROUGH THE
LUMINAIRE FLANGE INTO THE THREADED BOSSES IN MOUNTING RING E.
7. TO ADJUST THE LIGHT DISTRIBUTION, LOOSEN SCREWS KAND L. NOW THE ANGLE OF ROTATION AND
INCLINATION TO THE OBJECT TO BE ILLUMINATED MAY BE ADJUSTED. FIX POSITION BY TIGHTENING SCREWS K
AND L.
8. ENSURE THE SEALING SURFACES OF THE LENS GASKET IAND LUMINAIRE ARE CLEAN AND FREE OF DEBRIS.
PLACE THE LENS/GASKET ASSEMBLY INTO THE LUMINAIRE WHILE ALIGNING THE STUD ON THE TOP FLANGE OF
THE HOUSING WITH THE CORRESPONDING HOLE IN THE GASKET. NOTE THAT THERE ARE RECESSES IN THE
BOTTOM OF THE GASKET TO ACCOMMODATE THE SCREW HEADS USED IN STEP 6.
9. PLACE THE LENS FRAME GON TOP OF THE GASKET/LENS ASSEMBLY AND FASTEN THE SIX FLAT HEAD SCREWS J
IN A CRISS-CROSS PATTERN UNTIL ALL SIX ARE PROPERLY SEATED. REPEAT UNTIL A FINAL TORQUE OF 60 IN-LB
(6.78NM) IS ACHIEVED.
10. IN LOCATIONS OF HIGH HUMIDITY, LEAVE THE SCREWS JUNTIGHTENED AND LIGHT THE FIXTURE FOR 30
MINUTES OR MORE TO ALLOW MOISTURE TO EVAPORATE. THEN TIGHTEN THE SCREWS AS DESCRIBED IN STEP
9.

ETV100
BLOCKOUT INSTALLATION:
ATTENTION: PROVIDE PROPER DRAINAGE FOR APPLICATION, A SOIL PERCOLATION TEST SHOULD BE
PERFORMED TO DETERMINE IF PROPER DRAINAGE IS PRESENT.
1. TAKE THE INSTALLATION COVER AOUT OF INSTALLATION BLOCKOUT B. LEAD THE CONNECTING CABLE
THROUGHT THE DRILLED HOLE IN SIDE OF BLOCKOUT.
2. PLACE THE CABLE AT THE BOTTOM AREA OF THE BLOCKOUT, THEN REPLACE THE COVER AONTO THE
BLOCKOUT B. THE BLOCKOUT NEEDS TO BE PLACED ON AN EVEN, STABLE AREA. THE TOP EDGE OF THE
BLOCKOUT SHOULD NE FLUSH WITH THE SURFACE.
ATTENTION: IF THE FLOOR WILL BE TILED OR PAVED AFTERWARDS, LEAVE AN APPROPRIATE GAP.
3. IN CASE THE LUMINAIRE IS INSTALLED AT A LATER TIME, THE BLOCKOUT MUST BE COVERED BY INSTALLATION
COVER A, TO MAKE SURE NO CONCRETE OR DIRT MAY ENTER THE LUMINAIRE.
THE INSTALLATION COVER ENSURES THAT THE BLOCKOUT IS NOT DAMAGED DURING MASONRY WORK AND
NEEDS TO REMAIN INSIDE THE BLOCKOUT UNTIL INSTALLATION OF THE LUMINAIRE.

14
LUMINAIRE INSTALLATION:
1. SWITCH OFF MAINS ELECTRICAL SUPPLY.
2. THE LUMINAIRE IS FACTORY SEALED, OPENING THE LUMINAIRE IS NOT NECESSARY.
3. TAKE THE INSTALLATION COVER AOUT OF THE BLOCKOUT B.
4. CONNECT THE POWER SUPPLY CABLE DWITH CONNECTORS SUITABLE FOR WET LOCATIONS (UL486-D).
5. PLACE THE POWER CONNECTION CABLE DAND THE LUMINAIRE CINSIDE THE BLOCKOUT. MAKE SURE NO CABLE IS
CLAMPED.
6. INSTALL THE END CAPS E.
IN CASE THE SPACE FOR THE LIMINAIRE(S) IS NOT SUFFICIENT, YOU CAN REMOVE THE SILICONE BUFFERS G.
TO REMOVE THE LUMINAIRE:
UNFASTEN THE SCREWS FOUT OF THE SPACER E UNTIL YOU CAN GRASP THEM TO PULL THE SPACERS OUT OF THE BLOCKOUT. THEN
GRAB THE LUMINAIRE C BY OTHER END AND PULL OUT OF THE BLOCKOUT.

15
SOIL PERCOLATION TEST
1. TO DETERMINE YOUR SOIL DRAINAGE, FILL THE HOLE WITH WATER TO CONDITION THE SOIL.
2. ALLOW IT TO DRAIN, THEN REFILL IT 12 HOURS LATER AND TIME HOW LONG IT TAKES FOR THE WATER TO
DRAIN.
3. IF THERE IS PROPER DRAINAGE, ALL THE WATER SHOULD DISSIPATE WITHIN 2-3 HOURS.

DMX BEST PRACTICES
•A DMX UNIVERSE CONTAINS 512 CHANNELS ( ENOUGH FOR 128 INDIVIDUALLY ADDRESSED RGBW, 256 TUNABLE WHITE,
OR 512 SINGLE-CHANNEL FIXTURES), PLAN ADDRESSES AND DMX LINES ACCORDINGLY.
•THE MAXIMUM DMX RUN LENGTH ALLOWABLE IS 1000FT ( 300M ).
•THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF FIXTURES ALLOWABLE ON A SINGLE DMX LINE IS 30. IF MORE FIXTURES ARE REQUIRED, A
DMX BOOSTER SHOULD BE USED AFTER 31 FIXTURES.
•THE LAST FIXTURE IN A RUN, AS WELL AS ALL DMX SPLITTERS/BOOSTERS REQUIRE A 120Ω RESISTOR TO PREVENT DMX
SIGNAL REFLECTIONS. THE RESISTOR IS PLACED BETWEEN THE DMX+/- OUT LEADS.
•USE PROPER DMX CABLE FOR WIRING IN-BETWEEN JUNCTION POINTS.
•ALL DEVICES ON A DMX LINE MUST BE RDM ( REMOTE DEVICE MANAGEMENT ) CAPABLE TO ALLOW FOR BI-DIRECTIONAL
COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE CONTROLLER AND LUMINAIRES.
•‘Y’ LEADS OR DAISY-CHAIN CONNECTIONS ARE NOT ALLOWED BY THE USITT/PLASA STANDARD, ALL DMX CONNECTIONS
SHOULD BE IN SERIAL AS SHOWN IN THE DMX WIRING DIAGRAM.
