Installation / Rigging

WARNING! Always secure elevated devices with a safety cable

The G-Spot may be installed in any orientation.

Always use 2 clamps to rig the fixture. Lock each clamp with both

quarter-turn fasteners. The fasteners are locked only when turned

fully clockwise.

Always fasten safety cables between the load-bearing support

structure and the attachment points on the device. The safety

cables must be able to bear at least 10 times the weight of the

device.

• CAUTION: Always use 2 safety wires!

• Min. safety wire gauge = 5 mm

• Max. safety wire length (free fall) = 30 cm (11 in.)

• Make sure the slack of the safety wire is at a minimum.

Never use the carrying handles for secondary attachment.

Start the rigging process by blocking the work area below, and make sure the work is performed from a stable platform.

1 Check that the rigging clamps are undamaged and can bear at least 10 times the

weight of the fixture. Check that the structure can bear at least 10 times the weight

fo all installed fixtures, clamps, cables etc.

2 Bolt each clamp securely to a clamp bracket with an M12 bolt (min. grade 8.8) and

lock nut.

3 Align an Omega bracket with two 1/4-turns in the base. Insert the fasteners into the

base and turn both levers a full 1/4-turn clockwise to lock. Install the second Omega

bracket.

4 Working from a stable platform, hang the fixture on a truss, or other structure. Note

the position of the head. The front of the fixture is to the right, when looking at the

display panel. Tighten the rigging clamps.

5 Install 2 safety wires that each can bear at least 10 times the weight of the unit. The

attachment points are designed to fit a carabiner clamp.

6 Check that the pan/tilt locks are released (A and B). Verify that there are no

combustible materials or surfaces to be illuminated within 0.3 m (11 in.) of the fix-

ture, and that there are no flammable materials nearby.

7 Check that there is no possibility of heads or yokes colliding with other units.

Control panel operations

You can configure individual fixture settings, read out data and view error messages in the fixtures graphic display.

When the device is powered on, it boots and resets, then displays the DMX start address and any status messages.

Using the control panel

• Click the arrow buttons to scroll up and down menus.

• Click the OK button to enter a menu or make a selection.

• Press the ESC button to step backwards through the menus.

DMX start address

The DMX start address is the first channel used to receive instructions from the controller. For independent control, each

fixture must be assigned its own control channels. If you give two devices the same address, they will behave identically.

Address sharing can be useful for diagnostic purposes and symmetrical control.

Select DMX address using the arrow buttons.

ESC.
