If you are using controllers with this occupation, you can connect the DMX-output of the controller directly with the DMX-input of the first fixture in the DMX-chain. If you wish to connect DMX-controllers with other XLR-outputs, you need to use adapter-cables.

Building a serial DMX-chain:

Connect the DMX-output of the first fixture in the DMX-chain with the DMX-input of the next fixture. Always connect one output with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are connected.

Caution: At the last device, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 Ω resistor between Signal (−) and Signal (+) into an XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last device.

Connection with the mains

Connect the device to the mains with the power-plug.

The occupation of the connection-cables is as follows:

Cable Pin International
Brown Live L
Blue Neutral N
Yellow/Green EarthFuturelight PHW575 - Connection with the mains - 1

The earth has to be connected!

If the device will be directly connected with the local power supply network, a disconnection switch with a minimum opening of 3 mm at every pole has to be included in the permanent electrical installation.

The device must only be connected with an electric installation carried out in compliance with the IEC-standards. The electric installation must be equipped with a Residual Current Device (RCD) with a maximum fault current of 30 mA.

Lighting effects must not be connected to dimming-packs.

OPERATION

After you connected the effect to the mains, the PHW-575 starts running. During the Reset, the motors are trimmed and the device is ready for use afterwards.

Stand Alone operation

In the Stand Alone mode, the PHW-575 can be used without controller.

Disconnect the PHW-575 from the controller and call the internal program.

Please refer to the instructions under Control Board, Functions, menu Auto program.

DMX-controlled operation

You can control the projectors individually via your DMX-controller. Every DMX-channel has a different occupation with different features. The individual channels and their features are listed under DMX-protocol.

Addressing

The Control Board allows you to assign the DMX starting address, which is defined as the first channel from which the PHW-575 will respond to the controller.

If you set, for example, the address to channel 16, the PHW-575 will use the channel 16 to 30 for control.

Please, be sure that you don't have any overlapping channels in order to control each PHW-575 correctly and independently from any other fixture on the DMX-chain.

If several PHW-575 are addressed similarly, they will work synchronically.

Press the Up/Down-buttons for setting the desired starting address. Now you can start operating the PHW-575 via your lighting controller.

Note:

After switching on, the device will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or not. If there is no data received at the DMX-input, the display will flash.

This situation can occur if:

  • the XLR plug (cable with DMX signal from controller) is not connected with the input of the device.
  • the controller is switched off or defective, if the cable or connector is defective or the signal wires are swap in the input connector.

Note:

It's necessary to insert the XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) in the last lighting in the link in order to ensure proper transmission on the DMX data link.

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 “Color Wheel”, 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 repeatedly 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:

PAN Moving Magenta COLOR

TILT Moving Yellow COLOR

COLOR Wheel Stepless zoom

Cyan COLOR Strobe

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are inspected by an expert after every four years in the course of an acceptance test.

The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are inspected by a skilled person once a year.

The following points have to be considered during the inspection:

1) All screws used for installing the devices or parts of the device have to be tightly connected and must not be corroded.
2) There must not be any deformations on housings, fixations and installation spots (ceiling, suspension, trussing).
3) Mechanically moved parts like axles, eyes and others must not show any traces of wearing (e.g. material abrading or damages) and must not rotate with unbalances.
4) The electric power supply cables must not show any damages, material fatigue (e.g. porous cables) or sediments. Further instructions depending on the installation spot and usage have to be adhered by a skilled installer and any safety problems have to be removed.

Do not operate this device with opened cover!

The interior of the fixture should be cleaned at least annually using a vacuum-cleaner or an air-jet.

The dichroic colour-filters and the internal lenses should be cleaned monthly.

To ensure a proper function of the rotating parts, we recommend lubrication in six-month intervals. The quantity of oil must not be excessive in order to avoid that oil runs out during the rotation.

There are no serviceable parts inside the device except for the lamp and the fuse. Maintenance and service operations are only to be carried out by authorized dealers.

Please refer to the instructions under "Installing/Replacing the lamp".

Replacing the fuse

If the lamp burns out, the fine-wire fuse of the device might fuse, too. Only replace the fuse by a fuse of same type and rating.

Before replacing the fuse, unplug mains lead.

Procedure:

Step 1: Unscrew the fuseholder on the rearpanel with a fitting screwdriver from the housing (anti-clockwise).
Step 2: Remove the old fuse from the fuseholder.
Step 3: Install the new fuse in the fuseholder.
Step 4: Replace the fuseholder in the housing and fix it.

Should you need any spare parts, please use genuine parts.

If the power supply cable of this device becomes damaged, it has to be replaced by authorized dealers only in order to avoid hazards.

Should you have further questions, please contact your dealer.
