2-4 Setup and Configuration DL.1 User Manual
Mounting the Fixture
Recommended Mounting Orientation
High End Systems recommends mounting the DL.1 perpendicular to the floor,
suspended vertically from a support system (such as a truss), permanently to the
ceiling, or freestanding on its base.
Consider all the following Cautions and warnings before mounting the DL.1 fixture.
Caution: Mounting the DL.1 parallel with the floor can shorten the lamp
life, reduce positioning accuracy and put excessive stress on the
topbox.
Use a secondary safety cable when mounting this fixture.
Warnings: Equipment suitable for dry locations only. Do not expose this
equipment to rain or moisture.
Maintain a minimum focus distance of 1.4 meters from
combustible materials.
Do not mount on a flammable surface.
Fog Machine Warning
Like all high quality video projection units, the DL-1 fixture must be kept protected
from excessive amounts of glycol fog, mineral oil, and smoke. DL-1 incorporates
two-stage air filtering to reduce these risks to a minimum; however, the user must
follow these guidelines to ensure continued operation of the fixture:
• Air filters (both fixture and projector) should be checked and cleaned on a
regular basis. When used in a closed or fixed environment where fog or haze is
used, we recommend at least a weekly check.
• Do not situate DL-1 in areas of high fog density such as directly in front of a fog
machine or mineral oil hazer.
• Minimize the exposure of DL-1 to both glycol fog and mineral oil.
DL-1 is a highly complex and sensitive electro-optical device and care and thought in
how it is used, rigged, and positioned will maximize the product’s life and your
investment.
Note: Failure to follow these guidelines and carry out regular maintenance will
void the warranty.
