USE OF LIGHT SHAPING ACCESSORIES
Light shaping accessories like a barndoor or a filter frame with a diffusing
material can be inserted into the clamps at the front of the luminaire:
•
Press the knob on the side of the top latch (4). The top latch opens
upwards.
•
Slide the accessory from above into the clamps until the safety
catch (5) engages. To support this, the safety catch can be slightly
tilted with a fingertip.
•
Close the top latch (4) and take care that the nose engages in the
retaining ring of the accessory.
DMX INTERFACE
The L-Serie is equipped with two locking, 5-pin XLR connectors (10 and
12) for the DMX / RDM data input and throughput.
USB INTERFACE
The luminaire is equipped with an USB interface (Mini USB connector
11). The interface can be used for uploading new firmware, setting pa-
rameters or for service purpose. A service tool for Windows, Mac OS
and Linux allows the control and programming of the luminaire using this
interface.
The latest firmware and the ARRI Lighting Service Manager software
tool are located in the download area of our website www.arri.com for
free download.
POWER-ON AND OPERATION
By switching the power switch on (or by applying the mains power on
luminaires without a power switch), the luminaire starts lighting after a
short startup time with the same setting which had been active at its last
switch off.
The luminaire can now be controlled over the DMX interface, over the
USB interface or by the integrated fixture menu (15).
Operating Modes
WHITE LIGHT
The luminaire generates white light with an optimized color
rendition or high output with reduced color rendition. The color tempera-
ture and the green / magenta point can be continuously adjusted.
COLORED LIGHT
The luminaire generates white or colored (only "C" versions) light. The
color tone (hue) and the color saturation can be adjusted continuously.
At very low color saturation, the luminaire generates white light without
an optimized color rendition.
The operating modes can be changed by pressing the FUNCT button
short.
