Mounting the Fixture

Recommended Mounting Orientation

High End Systems recommends mounting the DL.1 perpendicular to the floor, suspended vertically from a support system (such as a truss), permanently to the ceiling, or freestanding on its base.

Consider all the following Cautions and warnings before mounting the DL.1 fixture.

Caution:

Warnings:

1.4 m

Mounting the DL.1 parallel with the floor can shorten the lamp life, reduce positioning accuracy and put excessive stress on the topbox.

Use a secondary safety cable when mounting this fixture.

Equipment suitable for dry locations only. Do not expose this equipment to rain or moisture.

Maintain a minimum focus distance of 1.4 meters from combustible materials.

Do not mount on a flammable surface.

Fog Machine Warning

Like all high quality video projection units, the DL-1 fixture must be kept protected from excessive amounts of glycol fog, mineral oil, and smoke. DL-1 incorporates two-stage air filtering to reduce these risks to a minimum; however, the user must follow these guidelines to ensure continued operation of the fixture:

•Air filters (both fixture and projector) should be checked and cleaned on a regular basis. When used in a closed or fixed environment where fog or haze is used, we recommend at least a weekly check.

•Do not situate DL-1 in areas of high fog density such as directly in front of a fog machine or mineral oil hazer.

•Minimize the exposure of DL-1 to both glycol fog and mineral oil.

DL-1 is a highly complex and sensitive electro-optical device and care and thought in how it is used, rigged, and positioned will maximize the product’s life and your investment.

Note: Failure to follow these guidelines and carry out regular maintenance will void the warranty.
