The PlutoFresnel from ASTERA is a LED Fresnel for professional use in the event and film industry. The PlutoFresnel is designed for direct or indirect illumination of objects and people. Due to its built-in battery it can be quickly set up at places where traditional lights cannot be mounted easily. It has the Titan LED Engine and offers excellent color and light qualities. The PlutoFresnel generates white or colored light and the color temperature can be adjusted in many ways. It can be controlled with the AsteraApp or with wired DMX or wireless CRMX. It is also possible to view and change settings via wireless RDM. The fixture can also be controlled by the integrated display or by infrared remote control. Thanks to its built-in Bluetooth it can be used as BluetoothBridge (BTB).

9. Charging

While the power cable is connected, the display shows the charging status. Charge immediately when the battery is empty. Do not store the unit when the battery is empty.

10. Rigging

The PlutoFresnel is equipped with Airline-Tracks on all four sides to attach various Astera mounting accessories. When installing accessories on the airline tracks, they must audibly click into place!

Astera Pluto Fresnel - Rigging - 2

natural_image Technical line drawing of a mechanical assembly with no visible text or symbols

With the included multi-functional yoke, PlutoFresnel can be easily hung or placed on the floor. When hanging, always secure with a safety wire at the safety eyelet on top of the light's housing. Make sure the light cannot drop more than 20cm if primary mounting fails.

The PlutoFresnel can also be mounted on tripods. For this purpose, a TVMP (TV to motion picture) adapter that can be attached to the yoke of the PlutoFresnel is included with the product.

BaseLock

Quick Release

To attach the PlutoFresnel yoke, the two YokeBases must first be inserted into the AirlineTracks on opposite sides. To secure the YokeBase, turn the BaseLock clockwise.

The scales in the AirlineTracks help to ensure that the same position is selected on both sides. There is a default position for the YokeBase.

You can move the YokeBase to balance the light or to use it in a different configuration. It is important that the YokeBase is oriented so that the opening of the V points downward. When the light is properly prepared, the yoke can be inserted into the YokeBases from the bottom up.

The yoke is attached to the YokeBases with a Quick Release system. To release the yoke, first loosen the Tilt Lock. This acts as a safety for the Quick Release. Once the Tilt Lock is loose, press the QuickRelease buttons on each YokeBase to release the fixture from the Yoke. Make sure to hold the fixture securely while releasing it.

Attention: Only unscrew YokeBase if yoke is detached!

Yoke as floor stand

The PlutoFresnel yoke can be used to floor mount the light. To do this, the two legs are folded out.

The PlutoFresnel Yoke has a mounting hole allowing for the use of up to 1/2" or M12 bolt, as well as being able to be converted to a 3/8" thread to attach spigots or bolts to the yoke. The 3/8" thread adapter is mounted to the inside of the yoke and swings in place. There is also an AirlineTrack for use with TrackPin and similar.

On the left outside is a BrickMount (PB15-BMO), to which suitable Astera accessories, such as a RuntimeExtender can be attached.

TVMP Adapter (AX-TVMP)

natural_image Technical line drawing of a mechanical component with no visible text or symbols

The TVMP adapter has a 1/2" thread on top and comes with a 1/2" bolt with washer. With this bolt the TVMP adapter can be attached to the hole of the PlutoFresnel yoke.

This allows the PlutoFresnel to be mounted on stands using the BabyPin (5/8") receiver or the JuniorPin (1-1/8").

In this application, the TVMP T-Bolt can be stowed on a dedicated thread on the yoke to prevent it from being lost.

TrackHandle (AX-THD)

The included TrackHandle easily converts the PlutoFresnel into a handheld light. To do this, simply attach the TrackHandle with its robust double stud fitting to one of the PlutoFresnel's AirlineTracks.

The TrackHandle is also a useful accessory for general handling of the light.

11. Beam modifiers

PlutoFresnel can not only be used as Fresnel but also be used as an open face light without any beam modifiers. In addition to the Fresnel lens, Barndoors are included in the product scope.

Fresnel Lens (AF80-FL)

With the included Fresnel lens PlutoFresnel provides a beam from 15^ to 60^ .

To insert the Fresnel lens, pull the barndoor lock upwards (1) and turn it to the side (2). Now slide the Fresnel lens into the holder (3) and close the barndoor lock by lifting and turning it again (5). Make sure that the barndoor lock is properly engaged before moving the light.

Barndoor (AF80-BD)

8 leaf barndoor is included as standard. They are inserted in front of the Fresnel lens in the same way as the Fresnel lens (4).

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem Possible cause Solution
The fixture does not turn on. The battery may be empty. Connect it to power and try again.
The fixture turns on and the display is on, but the LEDs do not emit light.The fixture could be set to BLACKOUT mode. Set to display black color or is operating in DMX mode and doesn’t receive a valid signal.It is good practice to do a RESET SETTINGS.
The fixture is not working correctly - it does not display the color or effect chosen.The fixture may still be operating under a previous setting.It is good practice to do a RESET SETTINGS between setups.
The power cable is connected but the fixture is not charging.The battery may be fully charged.The fixture will only commence charging when its battery has a temperature of 45°C or less. Turn the fixture off and let it cool down; once cold enough, it will start charging.

If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be deter-mined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

  • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
  • Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
  • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
  • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

FCC Caution:

  • Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
  • This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement Caution: To maintain compliance with the FCC's RF exposure guidelines, place the product at least 20 cm from nearby persons.

*** General allocation of frequencies for use by short-range radio applications

Spectrum usage regulations:

Frequency range in MHz1)Maximum equivalent radiant power (ERP)Additional parameters / frequency access and interference mitigation techniques
865 - 86825 mWRequirements for frequency access and mitigation techniques3) Alternatively, a maximum duty cycle2) of 1% can be used.
868,0 - 868,625 mWRequirements for frequency access and mitigation techniques3) Alternatively, a maximum duty cycle2) of 1% can be used.

^1) The use of adjacent frequency bands within this table as a single frequency band is permitted, provided that the specific conditions for each of these adjacent frequency bands are met.

2) „duty cycle“ means the ratio of (T_on)/(T_obs) expressed as a percentage, where T_on is the ,on-time' of a single transmitting device and T_obs is the observation period T_on is measured in an observation frequency band (F_obs) . Unless otherwise specified in this general allocation, T_obs is a continuous period of one hour and F_obs is the applicable frequency band in this general allocation (table).

3) Frequency access and interference mitigation techniques shall be used whose performance level at least meets the essential requirements of Directive 2014/53/EU or the Radio Equipment Act (FuAG). Where relevant techniques are described in harmonized standards, the references of which have been published in the Official Journal of the European Union pursuant to Directive 2014/53/EU, or parts thereof, performance shall be ensured which is at least equivalent to those techniques.
