Applications

This spotlight is suited for applications on stage, in dis-
cothèques and party rooms or for decoration pur-
poses. It creates coloured light via extra bright 5 mm
LEDs in blue, red, and green:
PARL-30SPOT: 90 LEDs, beam angle: 20°
PARL-30WASH: 91 LEDs, beam angle: 120°
Music-controlled colour changes, gradual transitions
from one colour to another, and stroboscopic effects
will be possible.
The spotlight is designed for control via a DMX light
controller (4 DMX control channels), however, it can
also be operated without a controller or with the remote
control LC-3 available as an accessory.
4 Mounting
G
Always place the spotlight in such a way that a suf-
ficient air circulation will be ensured during opera-
tion. Never cover the air vents of the housing (e. g.
by curtains).
G
The minimum distance to the illuminated object
should be 10 cm.
1) Fasten the mounting bracket (9) to the housing of
the spotlight by means of the two knob screws (1).
2) Fasten the spotlight via the mounting bracket (9),
e. g. with a stable mounting screw or a support for
lighting units (C-hook) on a cross bar.
For mounting the spotlight on a ceiling or a wall,
screw the mounting plate (7) to the mounting brack -
et according to figure 1. Find a suitable place on the
ceiling or wall and screw on the mounting plate with
the spotlight.
WARNING Mount the spotlight safely and ex -
pertly. If the spotlight is installed at a
place where people may walk or sit
under it, additionally secure it (e. g.
by a safety rope fixed to the mount -
ing bracket; fasten the safety rope in
such a way that, even in the event of
a fall, the maximum falling distance
of the spotlight will not exceed
20 cm).
3) To adjust the spotlight, release the two locking
screws (1) at the mounting bracket. Adjust the de-
sired inclination of the spotlight, then retighten the
screws.
If the spotlight is screwed to the mounting plate
(7), slightly release the screw (8), if necessary, turn
the mounting bracket (9) as desired, then retighten
the screw.

Setting the Spotlight into Operation

WARNING Never look directly into the LEDs; this
may cause eye damage.
Please note that fast changes in
lighting, e. g. flashing light, may trigger
epileptic seizures with photosensitive
persons or persons with epilepsy!
To switch on the spotlight, connect the plug of the
mains cable (6) to a socket (230 V~/50 Hz); to switch it
off, disconnect it.
For a more convenient operation, it is recom-
mended to connect the spotlight to a mains socket
which is switched on and off via a light switch.
Caution: Do not connect the spotlight to the mains
voltage via a dimmer!
6 Operation without Controller
If the spotlight does not receive any DMX control sig-
nal, it will automatically change colours by gradual
transition from one colour to another.
If music is played at sufficient volume with a clear
rhythm in the bass range, the spotlight will change
colours to the beat of the music, controlled via an inter-
nal microphone. If the music control should fail to op-
erate optimally, increase the volume or reduce the dis-
tance between the sound source and the spotlight.
6.1 Interconnecting several spotlights
Several PARL-30SPOT and PARL-30WASH units
(also a combination of both) may be interconnected in
order to change colours in sync or to control all slave
units to the same rhythm via the internal microphone of
the master unit.
For this purpose, connect the output DMX OUT (3)
of the master unit via a 3-pole XLR cable (e. g. series
MEC-... or MECN-... from the product range of
"img Stage Line") to the input DMX IN (4) of the first
slave unit.
Connect the output DMX OUT of the first slave unit
to the input DMX IN of the second slave unit, etc.
6.2 Remote control via LC-3
The remote control LC-3 available as an accessory
allows to control various functions in addition to the
music control.
1) Connect the remote control to the jack REMOTE
CONTROL (2).
2) There must be no DMX signal at the input DMX IN
(4).
3) Via the output DMX OUT (3), further PARL-30SPOT
or PARL-30WASH units may be connected
( chap ter 6.1) in order to control them together
with the master unit via the remote control.
4) The button STAND BY (13) allows to activate/
deactivate the function Blackout. With the function
