Mounting the Device
• Have the device installed by a qualified person, respecting EN 60598-2-17 and all other applicable norms.
• The carrying construction must be able to support 10 times the weight of the device for 1 hour without
deforming.
• The installation must always be secured with a secondary attachment e.g. a safety cable.
• Never stand directly below the device when it is being mounted, removed or serviced. Have a qualified
technician check the device once a year and once before you bring it into service.
• Install the device in a location with few passers-by that is inaccessible to unauthorised persons.
• Overhead mounting requires extensive experience: calculating workload limits, determining the installation
material to be used… Have the material and the device itself checked regularly. Do not attempt to install
the device yourself if you lack these qualifications as improper installation may result in injuries.
• For truss mounting, use an appropriate clamp (not incl.) and fit an M10 bolt through the centre of the
(folded) bracket.
• Adjust the desired inclination angle via the mounting bracket and tighten the bracket screws.
• Make sure there is no flammable material within a 0.5 m radius of the device.
• Have a qualified electrician carry out the electric connection.
• Connect the device to the mains with the power plug. Do not connect it to a dimming pack.
• The VDPLOP1209RGB has a power output [1] to supply power to another VDPLOP1209RGB. When
connecting several VDPLOP1209RGBs in a daisy chain via this output, make sure that the total current does
not exceed the power line’s nominal current. Use power cables with an adequate section. If you do not use
the power linking feature, be sure to use the included screw-on cap to prevent any water from getting into
the power cords.
• The installation has to be approved by an expert before the device is taken into service.
