Daylight PAR User Manual 3 V1.1 December 2006

1. Product overview

The Chroma-Q Daylight PAR is designed to give years of trouble free use, providing that it is

regularly maintained and is used in accordance with the instructions detailed in this manual.

Introduction

The Chroma-Q Daylight PAR is a DMX controlled high output, daylight colour temperature

fixture with 95% CRI, interchangeable optics and the added versatility of DMX control of all the

main functions, making it a truly multipurpose fixture. The compact and stylish design is

equally at home in a theatre, film or TV studio, exhibition centre, shopping mall, or car

showroom.

Light source and optics

The MSR 575 HR lamp is a high output metal halide arc lamp, with high luminous efficacy, and

a constant 95% CRI (Colour Rendering Index) and 6000°K colour temperature. The use of a

polished, enhanced aluminium reflector and four interchangeable lenses to vary the beam

spread give the fixture excellent versatility. The 'Hot Restrike' facility means the lamp does not

have to cool after power down and is always ready for use.

DMX control/stand-alone use

The Chroma-Q Daylight PAR is designed to operate on the ANSI E1.11 USITT DMX 512-A

protocol. This multiplexed serial data system allows for the individual addressing of multiple

units on one data cabling system. The unit is addressed by using the three push button

switches and LED display. The DMX signal allows remote control of lamp on/off, dimming

(partial) and 'power/lamp saving' mode. The unit equipped with a diagnostic section on the LED

display showing power, DMX signal and level presence.

Power

The Chroma-Q Daylight PAR is designed for worldwide use and does not require any alteration

to function on the standard voltages/frequencies available. The electronic lamp power supply

increases the lamp output and can extend the working life of the lamp.

2.3 Mounting the unit

The Chroma-Q Daylight PAR is designed for worldwide use and does not require any alteration

to function on the standard voltages and frequencies generally available.

(2x) 5 x 20mm

90-130V AC 47-63 Hz 0.62-0.65 1100VA 2.5A, 250V, 'T' type

2.4 Fixture set-up and installation

Lamp installation

• Replace the lamp at the end or before the end of its rated life (see lamp manufacturers’

literature). Failure to replace a lamp at this time can increase the chance of the quartz

glass envelope exploding.

• Before installing/replacing a lamp, please ensure the power has been shut off, the unit

unplugged and the fixture left to cool for 10-15 minutes.

• Please observe the lamp manufacturers guidelines with respect to the personal safety

equipment recommended to install/replace a lamp in the fixture.

• Do not touch the lamp with bare hands. If touched by bare hands, clean the lamp with

isopropyl alcohol (C3H7OH) and a lint free cloth.

To install/replace the lamp

You will need:

• MSR 575 HR lamp

• Philips screwdriver

• Suitable personal protective equipment

1. Ensure the unit has been unplugged from its power source, and is cooled sufficiently to

work on.

2. Using a Philips screwdriver, unscrew the lamp release screw on the rear of the lamp

housing.

Daylight PAR User Manual 6 V1.1 December 2006

3. Once the screw is completely loose, carefully remove the lamp housing from the

reflector housing by gently pulling it straight back. Trying to remove the lamp housing at

an angle will cause the lamp envelope to rub against the reflector opening and risks

damaging the quartz glass envelope (see diagrams below).

4. Wearing a pair of gloves and holding the lamp by its ceramic base, carefully remove the

old lamp from the holder.

5. Insert the new lamp into the socket assembly and gently push down until the lamp seats

correctly.

6. Re-insert the lamp housing onto the back of the reflector housing by starting to gently

guide the lamp envelope through the opening in the reflector. Then line up the guide pin

and gently push the lamp housing into position. Trying to insert the lamp housing at an

angle will cause the lamp envelope to rub against the reflector opening and risks

damaging the quartz glass envelope.

7. Tighten up the lamp housing retaining screw.

8. The unit is now ready for use, although the lamp position may need to be optimised to

achieve the best performance from the fixture (see: next section).

Optimising the lamp

1. Turn on the fixture, aim the light towards a flat surface and allow time to reach full

brightness.

2. Centre the hot-spot (the brightest section) in the main projected beam using the three

Philips headed screws on the back of the lamp housing. Turn one screw at a time to

move the hot-spot across the projected beam. If there is no visible hot-spot, adjust the

optimising screws until the light is evenly distributed.

3. If the hot-spot is too pronounced the lamp is too far

forward in the reflector. This hot-spot can be reduced

by turning all three screws clockwise ¼-turn at a time

until the light is more evenly distributed.

4. If there is a dark spot in the centre of the beam, or the

light output appears to be dimmer than expected, the

lamp may be too far back in the reflector. This can be

reduced by turning all three screws counter-

clockwise ¼-turn at a time until the light is brighter

and more evenly distributed.

Using colour filters

The Chroma-Q Daylight PAR is equipped with runners designed to take a colour-frame or other

accessories, which have 7.5"/190mm outside fitting, 6.7"/170mm minimum diameter opening,

and a spring-loaded retaining clip, which prevents the accessories from falling out.

• The fixture may be HOT. Exercise caution.

• To release the clip, push it sideways and back towards

the rear of the fixture.

• Insert the colour-frame, or accessory.

• Push the retaining ring forwards until it snaps into the

locked position.

• Make sure that the colour-frame retaining clip is in the

locked position when the fixture is rigged.

• Use only high-temperature colour media or dichroic

glass filters in the unit.

Changing the Daylight PAR lenses

The Daylight PAR comes equipped with four interchangeable lenses allowing a large variation

of beam angles from one fixture.

The medium and wide flood lenses will produce an oval beam shape. This can be rotated any

direction by moving the black plastic lens retaining ring.

• Do not operate the fixture without a lens fitted.

• Before installing/replacing a lens, please ensure the fixture has been unplugged.

• During operation the lenses and retaining ring become very hot. Wear gloves when

adjusting the lens retaining ring. Allow the fixture to cool before changing the lens.

• Do not remove lenses in situation where they might fall and cause bodily harm. Work on

a flat, stable surface.

• Change the lenses if they become cracked or badly scratched.

Removing a lens

1. Place the fixture on a flat, stable, work

surface and rotate the lens retaining

ring so that the spring clip is at the top

of the fixture.

2. Tilt down the front of the fixture

approximately 45.

3. Use a finger to depress the spring

clip, allowing the lens to fall forward.

4. Carefully lift the lens clear of the

fixture.

Daylight PAR User Manual 8 V1.1 December 2006

Installing a lens

1. Place the fixture on a flat, stable, work surface and rotate the lens retaining ring so that

the spring clip is at the top of the fixture.

2. Tilt up the front of the fixture slightly.

3. Holding the lens by edge, and with the convex side facing the back of the fixture, insert

the lens into the retaining ring so that the bottom of the lens is located behind the two

tabs at the bottom of the lens retaining ring.

4. Gently push the top of the lens into the retaining ring until it snaps behind the spring clip.

Note: Installing the lens the wrong way round (i.e. convex side outwards) will not affect the

optics of the fixture, but it will make subsequent lens removal more difficult and reduce the

working life of any colour media used with the fixture.
