Installation

Installing the Lamp

The Showtec Titan Strobe uses the PX-1800 (ordercode 82692) lightbulb as manufactured by all popular

manufacturers. Use only the appropriate lamp for your unit.

Note that, product versions that use other lamps, may be offered in the future. Check your product

specification label for information.

Always disconnect from electric mains power supply before changing lamps.

The lamp has to be replaced when it is damaged or deformed due to the heat.

Do not install lamps with a higher wattage! Lamps with a higher wattage generate temperatures the

device was not designed for.

Damages caused by non-observance are not subject to warranty.

DANGEROUS: Leave the device disconnected for 15 min before opening. Otherwise you could be

seriously injured due to a power shock !!!

Procedure :

1. Disconnect from main power supply, and leave for 15 minutes.

2. Remove the glass cover. With the left hand gently pull the lamp out the spring, while pushing the spring

back with the right hand.

3. Remove the lamp. Read lamp instructions. Do not touch the lamp bulb glass. Oil on hands shortens the

lamp life. (If you touch the bulb glass, wipe off the glass with a clean, lint-free towel and rubbing alcohol.)

Hold the lamp with one hand and Insert the lamp into the spring. Put the glass cover back.

Set Up and Operation

Follow the directions below, as they pertain to your preferred operation mode.

Before plugging the unit in, always make sure that the power supply matches the product specification

voltage. Do not attempt to operate a 120V specification product on 230V power, or vice versa.

1. Plug the power cable into the wall.

2. Connect a DMX controller to the Theatre Spot, using a 3-pin XLR cable.

3. Connect every unit with a 3-pin XLR cable. Every unit is set to the same DMX work mode and

the received DMX addresses are the same. When a DMX signal is received, the devices function

synchronously.

4. Please follow the dip switch setting and operating mode for the desired lighting effect (see page 7).

This unit has 2 operating modes: Self-test (1) and DMX Pack Mode (2)

1. Set dip switch 10 to OFF, this unit is in self-test mode. There are 2 self-test modes: AUTO and MANUAL.

Set dip switch 9 to OFF, the strobe performs an AUTO self-test. When the strobe flashes within the

dimming range from 0% - 100% and then from 100% - 0%, a slower or faster speed will be executed. This

strobe will flash within the regular speed corresponding to the variety of the duration of the dimmer. Set

dip switch 9 to ON, it performs a MANUAL self-test. Dip switch 1, 2, 3 and 4 are assigned to control

speed, and dip switch 5, 6, 7 and 8 are assigned to adjust the dimming level.

2. Set dip switch 10 to ON, this unit is in DMX Pack Mode. Follow DMX address setting printed on the rear

of the strobe for the desired flash speed and dimmer.

DMX Dip Switch Setting

A. In DMX Pack Mode, see the following figures for the desired Channel Setting:

DMX products must have their own "address" to receive DMX signals.

Addresses on the Showtec Titan Strobe are set by flipping the appropriate DMX dip switches.

You need to know that DMX address settings are the sum of the dip switch values.

Example

Titan strobe Address Value DMX Dip Switches "ON"

Unit 1 17 #1 , #5

Switch Value

#1 1

#5 16 +

Total sum 17

Once address values are determined, add DMX dip switch values to obtain the appropriate address (DMX

Dip Switches "ON") for each unit. Flip appropriate DMX dip switches on each unit.

B. In Self-test mode, please follow the table below for any desired chase:

C. In MANUAL of self-test mode, speed and dimmer are classified as 16 levels respectively, and are

specified as :
