OVERHEAD RIGGING

 Important: The installation must be carried out by qualified service personal only.
Improper installation can result in serious injuries and/or damage to property.
Overhead rigging requires extensive experience! Working load limits should be
respected, certified installation materials should be used, the installed device
should be inspected regularly for safety.
 Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during
rigging, de-rigging and servicing.
 Locate the fixture in a well ventilated spot, far away from any flammable materials and/or
liquids. The fixture must be fixed at least 50cm from surrounding walls.
 The device should be installed out of reach of people and outside areas where persons
may walk by or be seated.
 Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of
10times the device's weight.
 Always use a certified safety cable that can hold 12times the weight of the device when
installing the unit. This secondary safety attachment should be installed in a way that no
part of the installation can drop more than 20cm if the main attachment fails.
 The device should be well fixed; a free-swinging mounting is dangerous and may not be
considered!
 Don't cover any ventilation openings as this may result in overheating.
 The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical
installations are approved by an expert before using them for the first time. The
installations should be inspected every year by a skilled person to be sure that safety is
still optimal.
CAUTION EYEDAMAGE: Always position the laser in a way that
prevents the audience from looking directly into the laser beams. The
installation should assure that the beam will not strike the audience.
HOW TO SET UP AND CONTROL THE UNIT
 Regular breaks during operation are essential to maximize the life of this device as it is
not designed for continual use.
 Do not switch the unit on and off in short time intervals as this reduces the lamp life.
 Always unplug the unit when it is not used for a longer time. or before replacing the bulb
or start servicing.
 In the event of serious operating problems, stop using the fixture and contact your dealer
immediately.

 Important: Never look directly into the laser beam! Don't use the effect in the presence
of persons suffering from epilepsy.
Good to know: Every time you turn the unit on, it moves the motors to their 'home'
position so you may hear some noises for several seconds. After that the unit will be ready
to receive DMX signal or run the built-in programs.
You can operate the unit in 3 ways:
1) AUTOMATIC STAND-ALONE MODE:
 Set DIP-switch number 10 in "stand-alone" position. (display shows "---")
 Put switch auto/music switch in "auto" position.
 Switch the unit on with the key actuated on/off switch.
2) MUSIC CONTROLLED STAND-ALONE MODE:
 Set DIP-switch number 10 in "stand-alone" position. (display shows "---")
 Put switch auto/music switch in "music" position.
 Switch the unit on with the key actuated on/off switch.
 Put on some rhythmic music at the desired level.
 Turn the music sensitivity potentiometer until the laser beam nicely follows the beat of
the music.
3) DMX OPERATED MODE:
The DMX-protocol is a widely used high speed signal to control intelligent light
equipment. You need to "daisy chain" your DMX controller and all the connected light
effects with a good quality XLR M/F balanced cable (ex. JB Systems ref. 7-0063). To
prevent strange behavior of the light effects, due to interferences, you must use a 90Ω to
120Ω terminator at the end of the chain. Never use Y-splitter cables, this simply won't
work!
Each effect in the chain needs to have its proper starting address so it knows which
commands from the controller it has to decode.
This is how you must setup and use the Space Color laser:
 Connect the unit to a DMX-controller using a suitable DMX-cable.
 Determine which DMX address the laser needs.
 Set DIP-switch number 10 in "DMX" position.
 You will have to set the DMX starting address with the DIP-switches 1 to 8. Each of
these switches has a corresponding DMX-value written under it. You can combine the
values of these switches to obtain any starting address between 001 and 255:
Dip #1 #2 #3
Value 1 2 4
Begin address = 01  switch 1=ON
Begin address = 05  switch 1+3=ON
Begin address = 09  switch 1+4=ON
Begin address = 13  switch 1+3+4=ON
...
Begin address = 62  switch 2+3+4+5+6=ON
 The display helps you to check if the desired starting address is correct.
 Once the address is set you can switch the unit on with the key actuated on/off switch.
