Overhead Rigging - Briteq POWERMATRIX5x5-RGB Mk2 Mode D'emploi

ENGLISH
1. MAINS INPUT: equipped with original Neutrik PowerCON
®
PowerCon extension cable here.
2. MAINS OUTPUT: used to daisy chain the power to several other projectors. Always pay attention to the
maximum load while adding projectors! Special Multi cables (PowerCON
optionally available: see our website!)
3. MAINS FUSE: protects the unit in case of electrical problems, always use the prescribed fuse!
4. DMX IN: both 3pin and 5pin inputs are available to daisy chain the projector with other units that will be
controlled by a DMX-controller. The DMX-inputs are also use to update the firmware of the projector, see
the upgrade instructions on our website.
5. DMX OUT: both 3pin and 5pin outputs are available to daisy chain the projector with other units that will
be controlled by a DMX-controller. While Art-Net is used, the DMX-outputs will carry the complete DMX-
universe you selected. (Art-Net node functionality)
6. MODE Button: used to browse the different options of the setup menu, also the UP/DOWN-buttons (7)
can be used to browse the setup menu in both directions.
7. ENTER Button: used to jump between different parameters of the selected option. Also confirms the
selected values of the parameters.
8. UP/DOWN Buttons: used to browse the setup menu in both directions and increase/decrease the value
of a selected parameter.
9. LCD DISPLAY: backlit 2x 16character LCD-display for easy navigation. The backlight lights up as soon
as one of the buttons is pressed. The display blinks while the DMX or Art-Net signal is lost.
10. ETHERNET IN/OUT: used to connect the projector to an Ethernet network, Art-Net protocol is supported.
11. COOLING FANS: during its operation the projector produces heat that must be dissipated. The fans
inside the projector must be able to evacuate the heat in the most effective way. Therefore is it very
important not to cover any of the ventilation openings as this may result in overheating.
12. BRACKET: multifunctional and very stable design for both floor and truss mounting. The projector can be
pointed in any direction.
13. COFFIN LOCKS: these "coffin lock" mechanisms make it extremely easy and fast to build large matrix
arrays in no time. Also the optional hanging bracket (order code: 4407) can be fixed in no time.
14. TELESCOPIC GUIDE: needed to make sure that all projectors in an array are perfectly aligned.
15. CARRYING HANDLES: on top of the projector there are 2 folding carrying handles to easily transport the
projector or insert/remove it from its flight case.
16. SAFETY EYEBOLT: used to attach a safety cable when the unit is rigged (see "overhead rigging"

OVERHEAD RIGGING

 Important: The installation must be carried out by qualified service personal only. Improper
installation can result in serious injuries and/or damage to property. Overhead rigging requires
extensive experience! Working load limits should be respected, certified
installation materials should be used, the installed device should be
inspected regularly for safety.
 Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons
during rigging, de-rigging and servicing.
 Locate the fixture in a well ventilated spot, far away from any flammable
materials and/or liquids. The fixture must be fixed at least 50cm from
surrounding walls.
 The device should be installed out of reach of people and outside areas where
persons may walk by or be seated.
 Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point
load of 10times the device's weight.
 Always use a certified safety cable that can hold 12times the
weight of the device when installing the unit. This secondary
safety attachment should be installed in a way that no part of the
installation can drop more than 20cm if the main attachment fails.
 The device should be well fixed; a free-swinging mounting is
dangerous and may not be considered!
 Don't cover any ventilation openings as this may result in overheating.
 The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical
installations are approved by an expert before using them for the first time. The
installations should be inspected every year by a skilled person to be sure that
safety is still optimal.
