Lamp
You will need to install a lamp prior to the initial operation of the fixture. An HTI150 high intensity
discharge lamp is included.
Warning!
When replacing the lamp, please wait 15 minutes after powering down to allow the
unit to cool down! Always disconnect from main power prior to lamp replacement.
Do not touch the envelope (glass area) of the bulb with bare hands. If this happens, clean the lamp
with alcohol and wipe it with a lint free cloth before installation.

1. Remove screws labeled (S1) and pull out lamp socket plate.
2. If replacing the lamp, remove old lamp first.
3. Holding the new lamp by its base, align the pins on the lamp
with the small hole in the socket and insert the lamp squarely
until the retaining clips on the lamp socket secure the lamp
tightly.
4. Clean the glass/envelope of the bulb with an alcohol wipe or
equivalent.
5. Holding the lamp socket plate, insert the tip of the lamp into the
fixture with extreme care. Navigate the lamp all the way until it
reaches the reflector and the lamp base plate touches the
bottom plate of the fixture.
6. Align the screw holes and fasten the screws back onto the
lamp socket plate.
7. If you are replacing the lamp, you may want to log the fixture
hours in order to track the lamps use. Navigate to the H000 on
the menu display to obtain this information. Please note that it
is normal for the fixture to have logged a few hours of testing
prior to your use.
8. Turn the fixture on and adjust the lamp alignment screws (S2)
until the brightest most even area of the beam is in the center
of your spot. It may be necessary for you to use a controller in order to command the fixture to
display a white beam on a flat surface with no colors.
Maximizing the life of your lamp
To ensure the longest and most efficient use of the lamp always wait
between 10 and 15 minutes before re-applying power after a shutdown.
Failure to do so could result in premature aging of the lamp and failure to
the electronics that drive it.
