Troubleshooting
LAMPS FAIL TO LIGHT:
• With the power switch in the ON position, the red light should be on. If it is not,
voltage is not present. Check your power feed. Check the fuse on the fixture and
replace if necessary (5 x 20mm, T3.15AH/250V, Time Delay Type).
• Replace lamp or lamps.
• Check ballast contact. Make sure ballast is properly seated; lock tab must be locked
in place. (See checking ballast notes.)
• The onboard manual dimmer should be full up, turned completely clockwise.
• After having checked that lamps and ballasts are correctly seated, turn off power to
the fixture for 60 seconds and restart.
• Replace ballast card with one that is known to work.
• With DMX cable connected, if yellow light is off, there is no DMX signal. Establish
a valid DMX signal.
• With DMX cable plugged in and yellow indicator on:
1. Address must be between 001 and 512. Addresses above 512 are invalid.
2. The dimmer setting on lighting board must be in the full up mode.
CHECKING BALLAST:
Pull out 3 white push-pins. Remove end cover with
white push-pins.
Push up lock tab and pull
out ballast card.
The ballast is mounted to a circuit board with end contacts
to allow for rapid ballast replacement without the use of
additional tools.
Lock tab must be locked for proper ballast contact.
Note: On ParaBeam 210 Yoke and ParaBeam 210 Pole-Op,
the Yoke will need to be removed to access ballasts.
