SETUP

Lamp

 

You will need to install the lamps prior to the initial operation of the fixture. Twelve JCDR 50W 120V

 

MR-16 halogen lamps are included.

Warning!

When replacing the lamp, please wait 15 minutes after powering down to allow the

 

unit to cool down! Always disconnect from main power prior to lamp replacement.

 

Do not touch the envelope (glass area) of the bulb with bare hands. If this happens, clean the lamp

 

with alcohol and wipe it with a lint free cloth before installation.

LAMP INSTALLATION

Remove screws

1)Remove the 2 screws on the lamp/gel-holder face plate.

2)If replacing the lamp, remove old lamp first.

3)Slide the lamp out of the retaining clips.

4)Detach the lamp from the lamp socket and replace with new lamp.

5)Replace lamp lamp/gel-holder face plate, align the screw holes and fasten the screws.

6)No lamp alignment is necessary for this fixture since the lamp is already optimized inside the reflector.

Color Gels

The Color Bank includes color gels. Install them to create color wash changes during the chase sequence.

1)Choose any one of the 4 colors and slide the color gel into the open slot on the top side of the lamp/gel holder.

2)When installing the Color Bank in a horizontal orientation, make sure that the slotted end of the lamp/gel holder is pointing upwards. This prevents the gel from falling out over time.

Warning!

3)When installing the Color Bank in a vertical

orientation and in a tight space, ensure the slotted side is not obstructed and that you maintain the ability to insert a color gel.

Slide switch up or down depending on your line voltage.

Your product is equipped with switch-selectable AC power setting.

Verify that the power select switch on your unit matches the line voltage applied. All fixtures must be connected to circuits with a suitable Earth Ground.

To determine the power requirements for a particular fixture, see the label affixed to the back plate of the fixture or refer to the fixture’s specifications chart.

A fixture’s listed current rating is its average current draw under normal conditions.
