4. Setup

4.1 Unpacking and Inspection

Carefully unpack the fixture and inspect it for any damage during transit. If any damage is found, contact your dealer immediately. Ensure all components listed in the specifications (moving head light, mounting brackets) are present.

4.2 Mounting the Fixture

The KEATRONIC 130W BEAM Moving Head Light can be mounted in various positions (e.g., truss, floor). Always use the provided mounting brackets and ensure the fixture is securely fastened. For overhead installations, use a safety cable as an additional safety measure.

Figure 4.1: This image illustrates the physical dimensions of the moving head light (approximately 31cm height, 23cm length, 15cm width) and highlights the location of the control panel buttons (MENU, UP, DOWN, ENTER) and the built-in microphone (MIC).

4.3 Power Connection

Connect the power cable to the power input on the rear of the unit. Ensure the power switch is in the OFF position before connecting to a power outlet. The unit operates on 110V AC power.

4.4 DMX Connection (Optional)

For DMX control, connect a 3-pin DMX cable from your DMX controller's output to the DMX IN port on the fixture. If linking multiple fixtures, connect the DMX OUT of the first fixture to the DMX IN of the next, and so on. Ensure the last fixture in the chain has a DMX terminator connected to its DMX OUT port.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Control Panel Operation

The fixture features a 4-button LCD menu for configuration:

• MENU: Cycles through the main menu options.
• UP: Navigates up through menu options or increases parameter values.
• DOWN: Navigates down through menu options or decreases parameter values.
• ENTER: Confirms selection or enters a submenu.

Refer to the display for current settings and options. Common settings include DMX address, operating mode (Auto, Sound, DMX, Master/Slave), and specific effect parameters.

5.2 Operating Modes

• DMX512 Mode: For professional control, connect to a DMX controller. The fixture supports 12 DMX channels, allowing precise control over Pan, Tilt, Gobo, Color, Prism, Strobe, and Dimmer functions. Consult the DMX channel chart (not provided in input, but implied by DMX mode) for specific channel assignments.
• Auto Mode: The fixture runs through pre-programmed light shows automatically. Use the control panel to select different auto programs.
• Sound Control Mode: The fixture reacts to sound and music via its built-in microphone, creating dynamic light shows synchronized with audio.
• Master-Slave Mode: Link multiple fixtures together. Set one unit as the "Master" and others as "Slave" units. The slave units will mimic the master's operation, ideal for synchronized light shows without a DMX controller.

5.3 Beam and Effect Control

The 130W LED provides a focused 3-degree beam angle, suitable for both wide washes and precise beam effects. The 18-facet prism can be activated to split the beam into multiple smaller beams, creating a wider, more complex light pattern. The gobo wheel allows for projection of various shapes, while the color wheel enables quick color changes and mixing.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your KEATRONIC Moving Head Light.

• Cleaning: Periodically clean the lenses and exterior casing with a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the unit is powered off and unplugged before cleaning.
• Ventilation: Keep the ventilation openings clear of dust and debris. The internal fan system is crucial for heat dissipation.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect power cables, DMX cables, and mounting hardware for any signs of wear or damage. Replace damaged components immediately.
