4.2 Eggcrate installation

Disconnect the xture from mains before eggcrate installation

Screw the eggcrate (1) to the head (3) by means of the three screws (2).

4.3 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 regulations.

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

can bear at least 10 times the weight of the xture.

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 xture 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.

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 characteristics .

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

Use only the safety wire with a snap hook with screw lock gate.

Truss installation

1. Bolt the clamp (3) to the omega holder (5) with M12 bolt and lock nut through the hole in the holder.

2. Fasten the omega holders to the bottom of the base by inserting both quick-lock fasteners (2) into

the holes of the base and tighten fully clockwise.

3. Clamp the xture on a truss (6) and tighten the rigging clamps.

4. Pull the safety wire (4) through the attachment point (1) and through the handle (7) and around the truss (6)

and lock the snap hook with screw lock gate.

Use only a safety wire with a snap hook with screw lock gate.

When installing xtures side-by-side,

avoid illuminating one xture with another!

DANGER TO LIFE!

Before taking into operation for the rst time,the installation has to be approved by

an expert!

4.4 DMX-512 connection

The xture is equipped with both 3-pin and 5-pin XLR sockets for DMX input and output.The sockets are wired

in parallel.

Only use a shielded twisted-pair cable designed for RS-485 and 3-pin or 5-pin XLR-plugs and connectors in

order to connect the controller with the xture or one xture with another.

DMX - output DMX-input

XLR mounting-sockets (rear view): XLR mounting-plugs (rear view):

If you are using the standard DMX controllers, you can connect the DMX output of the controller directly with

the DMX input of the rst xture in the DMX-chain. If you wish to connect DMX-controllers with other XLR-out-

puts, you need to use adapter-cables.

Building a serial DMX-chain:

Connect the DMX-output of the rst xture in the DMX-chain with the DMX-input of the next xture. Always connect

one output with the input of the next xture until all xtures are connected. Up to 32 xtures can be connected.

Caution: At the last xture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 Ωresistor

between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a 3-pin (5-pin) XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX output of the last xture.

4.5 Ethernet connection

The xtures on a data link are connected to the Ethernet with ArtNet communication protocol.The control soft-

ware running on your PC (or light console) has to support Art-Net protocol.

Art-Net communication protocol is a 10 Base T Ethernet protocol based on the TCP/IP.Its purpose is to allow

transfer of large amounts of DMX 512 data over a wide area using standard network technology.

IP address is the Internet protocol address.The IP uniquely identies any node (xture) on a network.

The Universe is a single DMX 512 frame of 512 channels.

The Robin Spiider is equipped with 8-pin RJ- 45 socket for Ethernet input.Use a network cable category 5 (with

four “twisted” wire pairs) and standard RJ-45 plugs in order to connect the xture to the network.

1- TD+ 5- Not connected

2- TD- 6- RX-

3- RX+ 7- Not connected

4- Not connected 8- Not connected

Patch cables that connect xtures to the hubs or LAN sockets are wired 1:1,that is,pins with the same numbers

are connected together:

1-1 2-2 3-3 4-4 5-5 6-6 7-7 8-8

If only the xture and the computer are to be interconnected,no hubs or other active components are needed.A

cross-cable has to be used:

1-3 2-6 3-1 4-8 5-7 6-2 7-5 8-4

If the xture is connected with active Ethernet socket (e.g. switch) the network icon will appear at the

bottom right corner of the screen:

Direct Ethernet operation

Connect the Ethernet inputs of all xtures with the Ethernet network.

Option “Artnet (gMaI or gMA2)" has to be selected from “Ethernet Mode” menu on the xture.

Set IP address (002.xxx.xxx.xxx / 010.xxx.xxx.xxx) and the Universe.

(DMX address=131) (DMX address=30) (DMX address=1)

IP addres=002.168.002.004 IP addres=002.168.002.003 IP addres=002.168.002.002
