Shutting Down the Fixture

Recommended Shutdown Options

There are two recommended ways to shutdown the fixture:

1. A DMX controller can shut down the fixture’s motion controls and projector remotely with

the shutdown option of the control channel (see Fixture Operations on page 180).

2. The DL.2 fixture automatically shuts down in the event of DMX data loss. The default time is

10 min. To edit the length of time the fixture waits for a DMX input before shutting down,
use the CMA (see Editing Configuration Values on page 205), or the fixture’s menu system,
(see Set_Fixture Screen on page 30).

WARNING:
Removing power directly without the shutdown sequence built
into the two recommended procedures can severely reduce
fixture reliability.

Placing Fixture in Road Case

Tilt

Lock

Pan
Lock

Before shipping the DL.2 fixture, lock its pan and tilt
position so the fixture does not move during transit.

To lock the fixture:

1. Orient the projector head pan position as

shown for packing in the road case and secure
with the pan lock located on the yoke base.

Note:

This is the only pan position that locks.

2. Move the tilt lock peg to the upper left (locked)

position.

3. Gently move the projector head and yoke to

verify that both pan and tilt positions are locked
in place.
