2. Calibration via the external controller
Press [Enter] and the [Up] and [Down] keys in order to display the following messages: „Colo, EFEC" -
calibration parameters. Select one of them and press [Enter].
Now you can calibrate the colour and effect wheel by your controller. The DMX calibration protocol is
described in the table mentioned below.

After having calibrated required functions press [Enter] to confirm (or [Mode] to cancel and return to the
menu without reset by the "ArES" function) and use the "ArES" function in order to write the calibration
values to the memory (EEPROM) and to make a reset in order to check the new adjusted positions of the
colour, effect.
Error Messages
When you turn on the fixture, it will make a reset first. The display may show an error message while
there are problems with one or more channels. The error message stands for the channels equipped
with a testing sensor.
For example, when the display shows "CoEr", it means there is some error in the color wheel
channel. If there are some errors on several channels at the same time, you may see the error
messages flash repeatly for 5 times, and then the fixture will generate a reset signal, all the stepper
motors will reset. If the error messages maintain after performing reset more than 3 times, it will
detect whether the fixture has more than 3 errors. If the fixture has more than 3 errors (including 3
errors), all the channels can not work properly; but if the fixture has less than 3 errors, only the
channels which have errors can not work properly, others can work as usual.
The respective error message will appear after the reset of the fixture if the channels magnetic-indexing
circuit malfunction (sensor failed or magnet missing) or the stepping-motor is defective (or its driving IC on
the main PCB). The channel feature is not located in the default position after the reset.
The different error messages are:
This message appears if you try to switch on the lamp within 5 minutes after having switched it off (the lamp
is too hot). The message will appear on the display if the lamp doesn't ignite within 28 seconds. The DJ-
HEAD 575 WASH will store this information and automatically ignite the lamp when the 5 minutes period has
expired.
Caution: Please note that this function is disabled if the lamp light sensor is switched off (function "EnSn").
The ignition of the lamp is seven times unsuccessful (the HEAt message appeared six times before), and the
display shows "LAEr", meaning that the lamp could be damaged or even missed, the fixture is overheating
(this can occur if the ambient temperature is 45° C or more) or there could be a failure on the ignitor or
ballast.
Please place or replace the lamp, check the ambient temperature or contact your dealer if the situation was
not caused by the lamp.
Caution: Please note that this function is disabled if the lamp light sensor is switched off (function "EnSn").
