GENERAL INFORMATION

INTRODUCTION

Please read and understand the instructions in this manual carefully and thoroughly before attempting to operate this device. These instructions contain important safety and use information. This device is intended for use by professionally trained personnel only, and is not suitable for private use.

IP65 RATED

An IP rated lighting fixture is one, which is commonly installed in outdoor environments and has been designed with an enclosure that effectively protects the ingress (entry) of external foreign objects such as dust and water. The International Protection (IP) rating system is commonly expressed as "IP" (Ingress Protection) followed by two numbers (i.e. IP65) where the numbers define the degree of protection. The first digit (Foreign Bodies Protection) indicates the extent of protection against particles entering the fixture and the second digit (Water Protection) indicates the extent of protection against water entering the fixture. An IP65 rated lighting fixture is one, which has been designed and tested to protect against the ingress of dust (6) and low-pressure water jets from any direction (5).

NOTE: THIS FIXTURE IS INTENDED FOR TEMPORARY OUTDOOR USE ONLY!

NOTE: THIS FIXTURE IS INTENDED FOR TEMPORARY OUTDOOR USE ONLY!

Maritime/Coastal Environment Installations: A coastal environment is seaside adjacent, and caustic to electronics through exposure to atomized salt-water and humidity, whereas maritime is anywhere within 5-miles of a coastal environment.

Elation Proteus Maximus WMG - NOTE: THIS FIXTURE IS INTENDED FOR TEMPORARY OUTDOOR USE ONLY! - 1

NOT suitable for maritime/coastal environment installations. Installing this fixture in a maritime/coastal environment may cause corrosion and/or excessive wear to the interior and/or exterior components of the fixture. Damages and/or performance issues resulting from installation in a maritime/coastal environment will void the manufactures warranty, and will NOT be subject to any warranty claims and/or repairs.

Maritime installations require additional preparation, and additional service intervals may be needed given the maritime use. In general, IP ratings presuppose freshwater conditions VS maritime conditions, which are typically more “caustic” to IP fixtures (both internally and externally). A duty-cycle may also be needed when units are not in use. During times of high humidity and colder temperatures, condensation may occur internally so the fixture may require a duty-cycle to bring it up to running temperature, allowing any accumulation of moisture to be expelled via the vent valve. Recommendations can change based on installation environmental circumstances. A waterproof dome or similar device is recommended for use in permanent outdoor installations. When using a dome, refer to manufacturer recommendations for duty-cycle.

NOTE: NOT ALL FEATURES LISTED ARE AVAILABLE ON ALL FIXTURES; THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS MAY NOT APPLY. CONTACT SUPPORT FOR ADDITIONAL DETAILS.

Exterior Maintenance: Inspect the exterior every 30-days. The unit must be powered off/disconnected. Inspect optics to determine if the lens is obstructed, then clean optics and chassis accordingly. Based on initial finding, schedule maintenance accordingly, keeping in mind that exterior maintenance will be required. Even if the luminaires are NOT in use, maintenance will still be needed given its location (exterior use). The use of a durable type of wax on the chassis is recommended since it will help prevent contaminant build up. Inspect both power and data lines for any signs of contaminants or corrosion. Periodically reapplying di-electric grease, especially in coastal environments. If any signs of corrosion/contaminants are present, clean thoroughly, and/or replace connectors, then reapply di-electric grease. Typically, this should be done annually, or any time an opportunity presents itself. As a preventive measure, annual replacement of both vent valves is recommended. The vent valve membrane can become contaminated and/or clogged causing improper venting of humidity within the luminaire. Inspect all mounting hardware as a precaution.

Interior Maintenance: Inspect the interior every 30-days. The unit must be powered off/disconnected.

Inspect zoom/focus mechanism, clean optics, lubricate linear bearings (Krytox oil) as needed, inspect belts for wear Inspect all rotating effect wheels, manually rotate them, note any resistance

Inspect all remaining rotating belts for any wear

Inspect all fans, clean as needed, check rotation, check connections

Inspect CMY module, manually move flags and check for signs of resistance, and if needed, clean guide rods first, then reapply a thin layer of grease (moly lube)

Clean interior with low-volume compressed air, then clean optics prior to reassembly of head covers

Although the base has limited moving parts, the pan belt should also be inspected for wear. Remember to always perform an IP test anytime a cover is removed.

There is no specific time frame regarding the routine replacement of parts such as belts/stepper motors, PCBs, or LEDs. These items should only be replaced on an as needed bases, except for cooling fans, which should be replaced once the luminaries reach 10,000-hours. This is a prophylactic measure intended to keep the unit running as cool as possible, insuring proper function of all internal components. A complete service breakdown is available, please contact service@elationlighting.com for any needed parts or manuals.

FIXTURE TRANSPORT AND HANDLING

POTENTIAL INTERNAL DAMAGE FROM 'TIPPING' FIXTURE DURING TRANSPORT AND HANDLING

Note that not all features listed are available on all fixtures; the following instructions may not apply.

Depending on the model, large format fixtures may contain delicate optics and glass filters. While this product was carefully designed to be roadworthy, it must be handled carefully during transportation. If the fixture contains color flags, before transport, ensure that color flags inside the unit are placed in an OPEN position.

For superior impact protection, some fixtures are shipped in a custom fitted high-density Foam Inlay (FIL). This FIL must be used inside the road-cases for transportation.

DO NOT TIP THE CASE OVER, AND AVOID ALL SHOCKS AND ROUGH HANDLING, ESPECIALLY "TIPPING", THE PRACTICE OF TIPPING THE FIXTURE-CASE OVER TO ITS SIDE AND ONTO A HARD SURFACE. THE CASE MUST RIDE ON ITS WHEELS SO THAT THE FIXTURE-HEAD REMAINS HORIZONTAL DURING TRANSPORTATION.

MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES

Elation Proteus Maximus WMG - MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES - 1

DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE!

CLEANING

Frequent cleaning is recommended to insure proper function, optimized light output, and an extended life. The frequency of cleaning depends on the environment in which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or particularly dirty environments can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the fixture's optics. Clean the external lens surface at least every 20 days with a soft cloth to avoid dirt/debris accumulation.

NEVER use alcohol, solvents, or ammonia-based cleaners.

MAINTENANCE

Regular inspections are recommended to insure proper function and extended life.

There are no user serviceable parts inside this fixture, please refer all other service issues to an authorized Elation service technician. Should you need any spare parts, please order genuine parts from your local Elation dealer.

Please refer to the following points during routine inspections:

  • A detailed electric check by an approved electrical engineer every three months, to make sure the circuit contacts are in good condition and prevent overheating.
  • Be sure all screws and fasteners are securely always tightened. Lose screws may fall out during normal operation resulting in damage or injury as larger parts could fall.
  • Check for any deformations on the housing, color lenses, rigging hardware and rigging points (ceiling, suspension, trussing). Deformations in the housing could allow for dust to enter the fixture. Damaged rigging points or unsecured rigging could cause the fixture to fall and seriously injure a person(s).
  • Electric power supply cables must not show any damage, material fatigue or sediments. NEVER remove the ground prong from the power cable.

FIXTURE DISASSEMBLY

The following points should be observed after performing any maintenance procedure that requires disassembly of the unit:

  • After the unit has been reassembled, open the valve, and allow the light to run for approximately 2 hours to dry out any moisture that has been trapped inside the fixture. The process should continue until indicated humidity drops below 15% for the head and 30% for the base.
  • Once this has been achieved, the light can be switched off, but the unit should remain connected to power so that the cooling fan can cool down the unit. Please note that allowing cool down time should ALWAYS be done after lamp operation.
  • Some units may require partial disassembly to gain access to the valve. Please contact Elation service for information regarding the location and access procedure for the valve on your specific unit model.

FAN MODES and LOW NOISE OPERATION

The Proteus Maximus is a high-performance fixture suited for multiple applications. For noise critical environments such as Theater, Opera or Orchestra Halls, it offers various fan operation modes which remove any distraction for the audience and performers. Fan Modes can be changed remotely via the DMX control channel, allowing the fixture to offer high output or whisper silent operation at a moment's notice. All Fan Modes smoothly transition over a brief time, preventing unwanted attraction to the fixture.

ModedbA at 1m LED offdbA at 1m Dimmer 100%
Fan Control - Auto (Default)3947
Fan Control - High4055
Low Noise – Silent3131

Auto (Default) –Fans only run at the speeds needed to keep the LED engine within a safe temperature range and ensures optimal performance of the fixture. If possible, they will turn-off, for example, when the fixture is dimmed to a low intensity. Fans sense the ambient and fixture temperature, and will always try to keep noise levels to a minimum. The fixture output will only reduce when the LED engine cannot be cooled down to its safe operating range due to high ambient temperature.

High – Fan speeds are increased throughout for the most efficient cooling of the fixture. This mode will increase wear on the fans and should only be utilized in exceptional circumstances. Fans will always run, even if the fixture is dimmed down. Fixture output is kept at 100% unless the LED engine temperature reaches an unsafe temperature at which point the fixture will reduce power carefully to ensure continued safe operation. This mode is only required in very high ambient temperatures when automatic fan speed adjustments are not desired.

Silent

Fan speeds are reduced throughout the fixture for a lower noise profile. The fixture output is also reduced to approximately 80%. This mode should be sufficient for most uses where lower noise is required.

FIXTURE INSTALLATION

It is important to follow proper storage procedures to ensure the longevity and functionality of IP rated fixtures, especially those with an IP6X rating or higher. The following are guidelines for the proper storage of such fixtures in road cases:

  • Ensure Dryness: Dry the unit completely before placing in a road case, as moisture on the fixture in an enclosed space can result in moisture intrusion and damage, even for fixtures that are designed to be moisture resistant. Check road cases and foam inlays (FILs) periodically for dampness or moisture, and take all possible measures to keep them dry at all times.
  • Preventative Measures: Consider using moisture-absorbing materials like silica gel packs inside the road case to help mitigate any humidity that may build up over time. When considering a case design, it is advisable to incorporate a small vent to prevent moisture buildup inside the case.
  • Documentation: Carefully document storage conditions as well as any preventive measures taken. This can be useful for reference during regular inspections and can help with troubleshooting any issues that may arise.
  • Climate Considerations: Be mindful of the climate and environmental conditions in locations where the road cases are stored. The case may not be fully effective at protecting the fixture from extreme temperatures or high humidity.
  • Repairing Damage: Scratches or other damage to the exterior of the fixture should be touched up, filled in, or otherwise repaired, as such damage can provide a pathway for moisture intrusion and/or corrosion.

By adhering to these guidelines, you can help safeguard your IP fixtures and extend their lifespan by preventing moisture-related issues that could lead to corrosion or other damage. Regular maintenance and checks are crucial to ensuring that the fixtures are stored in optimal conditions.

POTENTIAL INTERNAL FIXTURE DAMAGE FROM EXTERNAL SOURCES OF LIGHT BEAMS

External sources of light beams from direct sunlight, lighting moving head fixtures, and lasers, which are focused directly on the exterior housing and/or penetrate the front lens opening of ELATION lighting fixtures, can cause severe internal damage including burning to optics, dichroic color filters, glass and metal gobos, prisms, animation wheels, frost filters, iris, shutters, motors, belts, wiring, discharge lamps, and LEDs.

This issue is not specific only to ELATION lighting fixtures, it is a common issue with lighting fixtures from all manufacturers. Although there is no true way to fully prevent this issue from happening, the guidelines below can prevent any potential damage from occurring if followed. Contact ELATION Service for more details.

DO NOT EXPOSE THE FIXTURE AND/OR FRONT LENS OPENING TO LIGHT BEAMS FROM DIRECT SUNLIGHT, OTHER LIGHTING MOVING HEAD FIXTURES, AND LASERS WHILE UNPACKING, INSTALLATION, USE, AND EXTENDED IDLE TIMES OUTDOORS. DO NOT FOCUS A LIGHT BEAM FROM ONE LIGHTING FIXTURE DIRECTLY TOWARDS ANOTHER.

Note: See ‘DMX Traits: Fixture’ table on page 48 under ‘Control’ for channel values to engage or disengage these functions.

SUN PROTECTION MODE

The fixture incorporates an automatic protection from harmful sunlight, which can damage a fixture's internal components from extended exposure. Fixtures use an internal sensor to determine their physical orientation, then reorient the fixture towards the ground to prevent sunlight from entering the lens.

This automatic feature only works when the fixture is powered. If the fixture is unpowered during setup, it is necessary to manually reorient the lenses away from the sun and aim them towards the ground. Even a few minutes of sun exposure can cause damage inside the fixture.

The Sun Protection setting is accessed via the "No DMX Status" menu.

The automatic sun protection positioning is activated under the following conditions:

  1. Power on without DMX signal: the fixture always starts in sun protection mode.
  2. No DMX Status "Sun Protection": the fixture enters sun protection mode after approximately 3 minutes.
  3. Remote DMX control: the sun protection position can be temporarily activated from the lighting console without the need to create a custom position preset. The fixture senses the correct ground orientation. This means that fixtures already facing the ground may not move their heads.

Hold "Sun Protect Position" for 3s to set the fixture to the sun protection position.

Sun protection status displays as "Sun Protection: Active".

The sun protection position deactivates under the following conditions:

  1. Connect DMX signal.
  2. Remote DMX control: Hold "Sun Protection Off" for 3s.

To avoid harsh or jarring movements, the sun protection position always uses a 5-second fade time when it is activated or deactivated.

HIBERNATION MODE

To reduce wear on the fixture and its components, this mode disables motors and most electronics. Set the hibernation mode countdown time in the Display Menu: “Status Settings / Personality / Hibernation”. Hibernation can be fully disabled.

The hibernation mode activates under the following conditions:

  1. Loss of DMX: the fixture enters hibernation after the timeout expires. Default is 15 minutes.

  2. Remote DMX control: Hold "Hibernate Fixture" for 3s

The hibernation mode deactivates under the following conditions:

  1. Connect DMX Signal
  2. Remote DMX control: Hold "Hibernate Off" for 3s

The fixture will perform a full calibration cycle, then assume the current DMX status.

Please note that the Hibernation does not change the PT position of the fixtures, allowing the user to set the desired position and then issue the Hibernate command.

To ensure the fixture is protected from harmful sunrays it is recommended to either leave the “No DMX Status” in “Sun Protection” (so the fixture is already in the correct position after 3 minutes of DMX loss) or set the fixture to a safe Tilt position manually first before hibernation.

Burn and heat damage to the fixture's interior components due to external light sources (sun or other fixtures shining into the lens) is never covered under the manufacturer's warranty.

SYSTEM MENU

The fixture includes an easy to navigate system menu. The control panel (see image below) located on the front of the fixture, provides access to the main system menu and is where all necessary system adjustments are made to the fixture. During normal operation, pressing MODE/ESC button once will access the fixture's main menu. Once in the main menu you can navigate through the different functions and access the sub-menus with the UP, DOWN, RIGHT, and LEFT buttons. Once you reach a field that requires adjusting, press the ENTER button to activate that field and use the UP and DOWN buttons to adjust the field. Pressing the ENTER button once more will confirm your setting. You may exit the main menu at any time without making any adjustments by pressing the MODE/ESC button.

To access the LCD Menu Control Display via the internal battery, press and hold the MODE/ESC button for 10 seconds. The LCD Menu Control Display will shut OFF automatically about 1 minute from the last button press.

SYSTEM MENU

PERSONALITY - Status Settings - Address Via DMX

When ON, define the desired DMX address via an external controller.

NOTE: This process assumes the fixture DMX address is set to 001. If fixture DMX address is not at 001, you must adjust the channel numbers accordingly in order for this feature to work.

For example: if your fixture address is 010, then Channel 1 becomes Channel 10, Channel 2 becomes Channel 11, and Channel 3 becomes Channel 12.

  1. Connect the fixture to the external controller and power ON.
  2. Set the DMX value of Channel 1 on the controller to (7).
  3. Set the DMX value of Channel 2 on the controller to (7) or (8).

When set to (7), the DMX address can be set between (1) and (255).

When set to (8), the DMX address can be set between (256) and (511).

  1. Using Channel 3 on the controller set the desired DMX address of the fixture.

Example 1: If the desired DMX address is 57, set Channel 1 to a value of (7), set Channel 2 to a value of (7), and then set Channel 3 to a value of (57).

Example 2: If the desired DMX address is 420, set Channel 1 to a value of (7), set Channel 2 to a value of (8), and then set Channel 3 to a value of (164). (256+164=420)

  2. The E-FLY signal Indicator on the fixture LCD control display will illuminate GREEN if a successful wireless DMX connection has been made or illuminate RED for NO connection. If no connection is made, repeat steps 1-4 above.
  3. Repeat this process for all E-FLY compatible fixtures in the E-FLY wireless network, making sure all fixtures are assigned the same E-FLY wireless channel.
  4. After all fixtures in the E-FLY wireless network have been set to the same E-FLY wireless channel and powered ON, now power ON the source E-FLY DMX Transceiver device.
  5. Test all fixtures connected to the E-FLY wireless network to confirm proper functionality.

E-FLY WIRELESS INSTALLATION LOCATION GUIDELINES

There are many factors that affect and/or interrupt a wireless signal such as walls, glass, metal, objects, and people. Therefore, it is highly recommended to:

• Install devices a minimum of 9.8 ft. (3m) above audiences and/or ground level
- Adjust the wireless antenna in a vertical upright position
- Position devices in direct line of sight of the controlling E-FLY device
Careful planning and testing of the selected installation location is critical to ensure optimum and reliable wireless operation.

REMOTE DEVICE MANAGEMENT (RDM)

NOTE: For RDM to work properly, RDM enabled equipment must be used throughout the entire system, including DMX data splitters and wireless systems.

Remote Device Management (RDM) is a protocol that sits on top of the DMX512 data standard for lighting, allowing the DMX systems of the device to be managed, modified, and monitored remotely (hence, remote device management). This protocol is ideal for fixtures installed in locations that are not easily accessible.

With RDM, the DMX512 system becomes bi-directional, allowing a compatible RDM enabled controller to send out a signal to devices on the wire, as well as allowing the fixture to respond (known as a GET command). The controller can then use it's SET command to modify settings that would typically have to be changed or viewed directly via the unit's display screen, including the DMX Address, DMX Channel Mode, and Temperature Sensors.

ERROR CODES

When power is applied, the unit will automatically enter a “Reset/Test” mode. This mode brings all the internal motors to a home position. If there is an internal problem with one or more of the motors an error code will flash in the display in the form of “XXer” were as XX will represent a function number. For example, when the display shows “0Er” it means there is some type of error with the Pan motor. If there are multiple errors during the start-up process they will all flash in the display. For example: if the fixtures has errors on Channel 1, 2, and 5 all at the same time, you will see the error message “01Er”, “02Er”, and “05Er” flash repeated 5 times.

If an error does occur during the initial start-up procedure the fixture will self-generate a second reset signal and try to realign all the motors and correct the errors. If the error persists after a second attempt a third attempt will be made. If after a third attempt all the errors have not been corrected the fixture will make the following determinations:

3 or More Errors - The fixture cannot function properly with three or more errors therefore the fixture will place itself in a stand-by mode until subsequent repairs can be made.

Less Than 3 Errors - The fixture has less than 3 errors; therefore, most other functions will work properly. The fixture will attempt to operate normally until the errors can be correct by a technician. The errors in question will remain flashing in the display as a reminder of internal errors.

Error Codes subject to change without notice.
ERROR CODESDESCRIPTION
PAN ErMovement is not located in the default position after the reset.This message will appear after a fixture reset if the magnetic-indexing circuit malfunctions (sensor failed, or magnet is missing) or there is a motor failure (defective motor or a defective motor IC drive on the main PCB). This error may also be displayed if the head/yoke was blocked during a reset function.
TILT Er
