Solution

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1.

Verify fixture is plugged in to an appropriately-rated power

 

 

source (power ratings are shown on page 1-4).

The fixture won’t power on

2. Verify the power switch is in the ON position.

 

3.

Check the fuse (page 5-4).

 

4.

Check power cord wiring (page page 2-1).

 

 

 

 

1.

Make sure a video input is physically attached to the input you

 

 

selected, and that the video feed is active.

 

2.

Is the dimming iris closed? (If so, check the setting for DMX

 

 

channel 10—Control—which usually shuts the dimming iris. See

The fixture powers on but

 

page 4-4.)

3.

Did you recently change inputs? About 10 seconds are required

no image

 

for an input change to take effect. However, you might have

 

 

 

 

selected an invalid input using projector controls.

 

4.

Set the projector back to its default settings as shown on

 

 

page 3-9. Or use the DMX protocol to exit the projector menu

 

 

system (see page 4-4).

 

 

 

 

1.

Check the housing filter (see page 5-2).

 

2.

Is the DL.1 mounted less than 1.4 meters to an object? If so,

 

 

move the DL.1 farther away to enable it to focus properly.

 

3.

Make sure the DL.1 is not operating near fog machines, hazers,

you can override zoom and focus using the menu system (see

 

 

page 3-10).

 

 

 

 

1.

To control the internal projector with the DMX protocol, you must
