CAUTION:

There are no user serviceable parts inside the unit. DO NOT open the housing or attempt any repairs yourself. In the unlikely event your unit may require service, please contact your nearest dealer.

INSTALLATION:

The unit should be mounted via its screw holes on the bracket.

Always ensure that the unit is firmly fixed to avoid vibration and slipping while operating.

And make sure that the structure to which you are attaching the unit is secure and is able to support a weight of 10 times of the unit's weight. Also always use a safety cable that can hold 12 times of the weight of the unit when installing the fixture.

The equipment must be fixed by professionals. And it must be fixed at a place where is out of the touch of people and has no one pass by or under it.

COMMON DMX - DMX + Not Used Not Used DMX OUTPUTDMX INPUT DMX 512 5 PIN SCREEN - SIGNAL + SIGNAL

DMX connections - Fig. 6

1. Use a cable conforming to specifications EIA RS-485: 2-pole twisted, shielded, 120Ohm characteristic impedance, 22-24 AWG, low capacity. Do not use microphone cable or other cable with characteristics differing from those specified. The end connections must be made using XLR type 5-pin male/female connectors. A terminating plug must be inserted into the last projector with a resistance of 120Ohm (minimum 1/4 W) between terminals 2 and 3.
   IMPORTANT: The wires must not make contact with each other or with the metal casing of the connectors. The casing itself must be connected to the shield braid and to pin 1 of the connectors.
2. Connect the fixture together in a "daisy chain" by XLR plug cable from the output of the fixture to the input of the next fixture. The cable cannot be branched or split to a "Y" cable. Inadequate or damaged cables, soldered joints or corroded connectors can easily distort the signal and shut down the system.
3. The DMX output and input connectors are pass-through to maintain the DMX circuit when one of the units' power is disconnected.
4. Each lighting fixture needs to have an address set to receive the data sent by the controller. The address number is between 1-512.

3.4 Lamp Hook Installation

3.4.1 Introduction

The Orkis CYC has been designed to respond to the increasing need to illuminate walls, scenery and cycloramas uniformly with a smooth, even wash of seamlessly blended colours. The Orkis CYC ensures good colour consistency and uniform light distribution on very high scenery, even when the lighting fixture and the projection surface are very close together.

3.4.2 Installation configurations

The Orkis CYC has been designed to work in a linear set-up, so the fixtures must be aligned in a continuous row. The distance between one fixture and the next one is 1000mm, related to the center of the lens.

Orkis CYC installation - Fig. 7
Top and bottom configuration.

Orkis CYC units may be installed in a bottom, top and bottom, or top only set-up, depending on the height of the surface to be lit and on the required effect (total evenness of the light on the cyclorama or a linearly fading intensity effect).

When Orkis CYC units are installed in a single row (top or bottom), they create a uniform horizontal light distribution which fades vertically (see Fig. 1). When they are installed on the floor and on the ceiling (top and bottom rows) at the same distance from the cyclorama, they create an outstandingly uniform vertical light distribution (see Fig. 2). Top and bottom set-up is ideal in order to achieve the most even light distribution on the cyclorama.

4. TROUBLESHOOTING

Following are a few common problems that may occur during operation. Here are some suggestions for easy troubleshooting:

A. The unit does not work, no light and the fan does not work

1. Check the connection of power and main fuse.
2. Measure the mains voltage on the main connector.
3. Check the power on Fixture.

B. Not responding to DMX controller

1. Check DMX connectors, cables to see if link properly.
2. No response to the channel, check the address settings and DMX polarity.
3. If you have intermittent DMX signal problems, check the pins on connectors or on PCB of the unit or the previous one.
4. Try to use another DMX controller.
5. Check if the DMX cables run near or run alongside to high voltage cables that may cause damage or interference to DMX interface circuit.

5. FIXTURE CLEANING

The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out periodically to optimize light output.

Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or particularly dirty surrounding can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the unit's optics.

• Clean with soft cloth using normal glass cleaning fluid.
  • Always dry the parts carefully.
• Clean the external optics at least every 20 days. Clean the internal optics at least every 30/60 days.
