The projector is designed to operate at the voltage and frequency indicated on the
electrical data plate (23) 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).
• Connecting the control signals
0-10V CONNECTION
The connection between controller and projector must be made using a multicore
cable with 8 wires of 0.25mm
2 section and a DIN 8 PIN 45° plug/socket connector.
RS 232/423(PMX) - DMX 512 CONNECTION
Projectors are wired up to the controller and one to the next using two-core
screened cable and Cannon 5 pin XLR type plug/socket connectors.
To connect a DMX line, a terminating plug (24) with a 100
Ω resistor wired between
pins 2 and 3 must be fitted to the last projector connected in series; the plug is not
required when using an 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 (25).
Check that the lamp comes on and that the auto-reset sequence starts.

• Connecting to the electrical power supply
The operations described in this heading must be carried out by a licensed
electrician.
It is good policy to connect projectors to the power supply by way of dedicated switch-
es, so that each can be turned on and off individually from a remote station.
POWER SUPPLY AND INTERFACE 3
• Alignment procedure
Before positioning the projector, set the channels as shown in the following table:
POSITIONING THE PROJECTOR 4
Setting the TEST switch to the ON position for a few seconds with the projector pow-
ered-up, an auto-reset routine is carried out. Leaving the TEST switch at the ON posi-
tion for a longer period, a full self-test program will be completed; once the operation
has terminated, return the switch to the OFF position.

After setting up the channels loosen
the knobs (5), and manoeuvre the pro-
jector on its bracket (7) until the beam
is directed at the centre of the scene,
then retighten the knobs (5).
• Adjusting the mirror head
The beam can be positioned not only
by moving the entire projector, but also
by adjusting the mirror head.
To do this, loosen the three knobs
(18), turn the mirror head to the
desired position, and retighten the
knobs.
• Adjusting the lens
Move the lens (26) back and forward
until the projected image is satisfacto-
rily focused, then tighten the knob
(27).

• Projector address codes (for digital signals)
Each TIGER SCAN projector uses 6 control channels. To ensure that different pro-
jectors are addressed correctly by the controller, a code must be assigned to each
one. This operation is carried out on each TIGER SCAN by setting the microswitch-
es as indicated in the table below.
