This xture falls under protection class I. Therefore this xture has to be connected to

a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.

Do not connect this xture to a dimmer pack.

During the initial start-up some smoke or smell may arise. This is a normal process and does not necessarily

mean that the device is defective.

Do not touch the device’s housing bare hands during its operation (housing becomes hot)!

For replacement use lamps and fuses of same type and rating only.

CAUTION ! EYE DAMAGES !

Avoid looking directly into the light source!

If the xture has been exposed to drastic temperature uctuation (e.g. after transportation), do not switch it on

immediately. The arising condensation water might damage your device. Leave the device switched o󰀨 until

it has reached room temperature.

Do not shake the xture. Avoid brute force when installing or operating the xture.

This xture was designed for indoor use only, do not expose this unit to rain or use near water.

When choosing the installation spot, please make sure that the xture is not exposed to extreme heat, moisture

or dust.

Air vents and slots in the xture´s head and base are provided for ventilation, to ensure reliable operation of

the device and to protect it from overheating.

Do not block the front objective lens with any object when the xture is under operation.

The openings should never be covered with cloth or other materials, and never must be blocked.

The xture becomes very hot during operation. Allow the xture to cool approximately 20 minutes prior to ma-

nipulate with it.

Before switching the xture OFF, turn the lamp OFF and allow the xture to cool for a while.

This xture should not be placed in a built-in installation unless proper ventilation is provided.

3.1 Connection to the mains

For protection from electric shock, the xture must be earthed!

The Robin miniPointe is equipped with auto-switching power supply that automatically adjusts to any 50-60Hz

AC power source from 100-240 Volts.

This xture must be earthed. To use the xture, a plug must be xed.

The correct assembly of a su󰀩cient plug may be done by professional persons only.

The conductors in the cable are marked by the following table.

Core (EU) Core (US) Connection Plug Terminal Marking

Brown Black Live L

Light blue White Neutral N

Green /Yellow Green Earth

Design of the Robin miniPointe allows to connect several xtures to AC mains power in one interconnected

daisy chain using power input and throughput connectors. Needed daisy chain cords are stated in the chapter

“Technical specications “

The max. number of connected xtures depends on the AC mains power voltage and xture version:

EU version (CE) US version (cETLus)

15 xtures at power supply= 230V 9 xtures at power supply= 230V

13 xtures at power supply= 208V 7 xtures at power supply= 208V

7 xtures at power supply= 120V 5 xtures at power supply= 120V

Do not overload the supply line and the connecting leads.

Wiring and connection work must be carried out by qualied sta󰀨!

3.2 Changing the lamp

Do not operate this xture without the lamp cover!

Note: Due to light refraction in the xture, the lamp has to be moved into direction of shifted hot-spot - see

pictures below.

3.4 Rigging the xture

A structure intended for installation of the xture (s) must safely hold weight of the xture(s) placed on it. The

structure has to be certicated to the purpose.

The xture (xtures) must be installed in accordance with national and local electrical and construction codes

and regulation.

For overhead installation, the xture must be always secured with a safety wire

When rigging, derigging or servicing the xture staying in the area below the installation place, on bridges,

under high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden.

The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an

expert before taking into operation for the rst time and after changes before taking into operation another time.

The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by a skilled

person once a year.

Allow the xture to cool for ten minutes before handling.

The projector should be installed outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated.

IMPORTANT! OVERHEAD RIGGING REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE, including calculating working

load limits, installation material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all installation material and the

projector. If you lack these qualications, do not attempt the installation yourself, but use a help of professional

companies.

CAUTION: Fixtures may cause severe injuries when crashing down! If you have doubts concerning the safety

of a possible installation, do not install the xture!

The xture has to be installed out of the reach of public.

The xture must never be xed swinging freely in the room.

Danger of re!

When installing the device, make sure there is no highly inammable

material (decoration articles, etc.) in a distance of min. 0.5 m.

The special desing of the temperature lter has allowed to reduce distance betwen the

xture and lit objects, but the minimum distance of 5 meters between light output from

the moving head and the lit objects must be kept!

Caution!

Use 2 appropriate clamps to rig the xture on the truss.

Follow the instructions mentioned at the bottom of the base.

Make sure that the device is xed properly! Ensure that the

structure (truss) to which you are attaching the xtures is secure.

The xture can be placed directly on the stage oor or rigged in any orientation on a truss without altering its

operation characte ristics .

For securing a xture to the truss, install a safety wire that can hold at least 10 times the weight of the xture.

Use only the safety wire with screw-on carabine. Pull the safety wire through the safety attachment point on

the bottom of the base and around the truss as shown on the pictures below.
