The COLORSPOT 170 AT can be operated with a controller in controller mode or without the controller in stand-

alone mode.

Both modes are described in the texts below.

6.Controller mode

The fixtures are individually addressed (001-497) on a data link and connected to the controller.The fixtures

respond to the DMX signal from the controller.

6.1 DMX addressing

The control panel on the front side of the base allows you to assign the DMX fixture address, which is defined as

the first channel from which the COLORSPOT 170 AT will respond to the controller.

If you set, for example, the address to channel 5, the COLORSPOT 170 AT will use the channel 5 to 16 for control

(if the mode 1 is selected).

Please, be sure that you don’t have any overlapping channels in order to control each COLORSPOT 170 AT

correctly and independently from any other fixture on the DMX data link.

If two, three or more COLORSPOT 170 AT are addressed similarly, they will work similarly.

For address setting, please refer to the instructions under "Addressing"(menu "A001").

Controlling:

After having addressed all COLORSPOT 170 AT , you may now start operating these via your lighting controller.

Note:After switching on, the COLORSPOT 170 AT will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or

not.If there is no data received at the DMX-input, the display will start to flash "A001" with actually set address.

This situation can occur if:

- the 3 PIN XLR plug (cable with DMX signal from controller) is not connected with the input of the COLORSPOT

170 AT

- the controller is switched off or defective, the cable or connector is defective or the signal wires are swap in the

input connector.

Note:It’s necessary to insert the XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) to the last fixture in the link in order to

ensure proper transmission on the DMX data link.

6.2 Remotely controllable functions

Lamp

The COLORSPOT 170 AT is to be operated with a CDM-SA/T150W/942 lamp.

A relay inside of the COLORSPOT 170 AT allows you to switch on and off the lamp via the control panel or via

your DMX-controller without affecting the rest of the lighting.

To switch On/Off the lamp,use the menu "LAMP"- please refer to "Switching On/Off the lamp ".

Note: It is also important to note, that the discharge lamp is cold restrike types, that means, that they have to be

cold before re-striking. For this reason, you have to wait 5 minutes (after having switched Off the lamp before you

can switch it back On again. If you try to switch On the lamp within 5 minutes after having switched it Off, the

COLORSPOT 170 AT will store this information and automatically ignite the lamp when the 5 minutes period has

expired. The message "HEAt" will appear on the control board display of the COLORSPOT 170 AT. If the ignition

of the lamp is seven times unsuccessful, on the display will appear "LA.Er.", meaning that the lamp could be

damaged or even missed, or there could be a failure on the ignitor or ballast.
