If the spotlight is to be put out of operation
definitively, take it to a local recycling plant
for a disposal which is not harmful to the
environment .
3 Applications
This spotlight is suited for applications on stage, in
discothèques and party rooms or for decoration pur-
poses . It creates coloured light via extra bright 5 mm
LEDs in blue, red, and green . Music-controlled colour
changes, gradual transitions from one colour to an-
other, 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
•
Always place the spotlight in such a way that a
sufficient air circulation will be ensured during op-
eration . Never cover the air vents of the housing
(e . g . by curtains) .
•
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 spot-
light 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 neces-
sary, turn the mounting bracket (9) as desired, then
retighten the screw .
5 Setting the Spotlight into
Operation
WARNING Never look directly into the LEDs; this
may cause eye damage .
Please note that fast changes in light-
ing, 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
internal microphone . If the music control should fail to
operate optimally, increase the volume or reduce the
distance between the sound source and the spotlight .
6.1 Interconnecting several spotlights
Several PARL-30SPOT 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 CDMXN-... 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
units may be connected (
to control them together with the master unit via
the remote control .
