Shaping the beam

You may shape the beam with the shutters, a pattern, an optional drop-
in iris, and/or by rotating the barrel.

Pattern projection

The pattern holder slot is on the top side of the barrel, immediately in
front of the shutters. It accommodates A-size, B-size and glass pattern
holders. See

Figure 5.

Use the optional donut (model # 400 ZDN) in the accessory holder to
enhance pattern projection. Donut aperture diameter should be 70mm.

Drop-in iris slot

The drop-in iris slot is on the top side of the front barrel, immediately in
front of the pattern holder slot. It accommodates either a drop-in iris or
a motorized pattern device. When it is not in use, a small sheet metal
cover secured with two crosshead screws prevents light leakage and
retains the iris assembly. To install an iris, follow these steps:

1. Loosen the thumb screws on the drop-in iris slot cover. Do not

remove the screws. See

Figure 6.

2. Slide the cover completely forward, exposing the slot.

3. Insert the iris or motorized pattern device. If you install an iris, the

flat side must be toward the shutters and the iris handle should
extend out of slot.

4. Slide the slot cover back toward the shutters until it meets the iris

handle. Leave enough space to move the iris handle. Tighten the
thumb screws.

Rotating the barrel assembly

1. Loosen the barrel rotation knob directly behind the shutters on the

underside of the reflector housing. See

Figure 7.

Caution!

Do not remove the barrel rotation knob.

2. Rotate the barrel to the desired position (up to 25

°

in either

direction from centered position.)

3. Once the barrel is positioned, tighten the barrel rotation knob to

lock it into position.
