POWER SUPPLY AND INTERFACE

• Initial assembly operations

Position the bracket (2) the desired height
and secure by tightening the knobs (3).
The bracket can also be freed by
removing the screws (4) and the
knobs (3), and refitted from the
underside of the projector.

• Connecting to the electrical power supply

The operations described in this heading must be carried out by a licensed
electrician.
The projector must be wired up to the electrical power supply using the special
socket connector provided. It is good policy to connect projectors to the power
supply by way of dedicated switches, so that each can be turned on and off indi-
vidually from a remote station.

• Connecting the control signals

0 -10V CONNECTION

RS 232/423(PMX) - DMX 512 CONNECTION

The projector is designed to operate at the voltage and frequency indicated on the
electrical data plate (5) affixed to the rear end.
Check that these two values correspond to the mains voltage and frequency.

IMPORTANT: the projector must be connected to a power supply circuit
having a proper earth system (Class I appliance).

IMPORTANT: For better and more reliable operation of the projector, the ambient
temperature must not exceed 35° C (95° F). Protection factor IP 20: the appliance is
protected against penetration of solid bodies more than 12mm (0.5”) in diameter (first
digit 2), but can be damaged by spray, jet, drip or rain water (second digit 0).

The appliance may be mounted on surfaces rated normally inflammable.

• Minimum distance of inflammable materials from any part of the equipment:

0.05 m (2’) for HTI 300 and HMD 300, and 0.07 m (3’) for HMI 575.

• Fitting the lamp

Refer to directions for replacement of the lamp given under heading 6 MAINTE-
NANCE.

• Installing the projector

The projector can be mounted in any position without its operating characteristics
being affected.

IMPORTANT: fix the projector in the desired position utilizing the holes in the
bracket (2). Secure preferably using two ø10 bolts with nuts and lock washers.

Make certain that the anchorage is stable before positioning the projector.

Projectors are wired up to the controller and one to the next using two-core scree-
ned cable and Cannon 5 pin XLR type plug/socket connectors.
To connect a DMX line, a terminating plug (6) with a 100

resistor wired between

pins 2 and 3 must be fitted to the last projector connected in series; the plug is not
required when using a RS232/423(PMX) signal.
The wires must not come into contact with each other or with the metal casing
of the plug. The casing of the plug/socket must be connected to the screen and
to pin 1 of the connectors.

Having completed the operations described above, press the on/off switch (7). Check
that the warning light comes on and that the auto-reset sequence starts.
