Inspection

Every Mighty Scan™ has been thoroughly tested and lamped before leaving the factory. Carefully unpack the fixture and inspect the unit for damage that may have occurred during shipping.

Projector Installation

1.After removing the Mighty Scan™ from the shipping container, remove the hanging brackets knobs that have been inserted in the styrofoam packing material. The knobs are used to hold the fixtures’ angle. Without the knobs the weight of fixture will not allow the unit to hold your desired operating angle.

2.This unit can be hung or placed in any safe, secure position.

3.To securely mount the fixture to truss, be sure to use a minimum 35Kg rated clamp and always try to use a safety cable when ever possible.

4.Try not to mount the fixture too close to walls or other fixtures, this will allow for proper cooling.

5.Connect the IEC power cord into the top of the unit (See diagram 10).

6.Set the dip switches according to your desired operation mode [See Operation Mode on pages three (3), four (4), and five (5)].

7.Plug the power cord into a properly grounded electrical socket. Do not attempt to brake off or by-pass the ground prong on the power cord, this is used for safety to reduce the risk of fire in case of an electrical short.

8.After plugging the unit in, the lamp will ignite and the unit will reset to the home position making a clicking noises and returning the mirror to center home position.
