4.1.4 Focus and tilt angle
The Klemantis performs best if tilted 45°
When one Klemantis is installed properly in place (at the correct distance, perfectly parallel to the wall and tilted 45°), the light distribution on the cyclorama
looks like a rectangular distribution with soft edges on the sides and soft vertical fading.
If the lighted area has a trapezoidal shape, correct the tilt angle until the projection sides become straight and parallel (fig. 9a)
Summary of check points for correct installation
• Make sure the Klemantis is aligned parallel to the wall
• Check the unit tilt angle (45° is the recommended angle for best performance)
• Check the distance between the fixture and the projection surface
(see point 4.1.3 of the User Manual for detailed instructions)
4.1.5 Tips & Tricks
The biggest issues which occur in case of improper installation are:
- Gaps or peaks, which appear in the vertical light half way up the cyclorama.
• Tilting effect: if tilted upwards, the generated target light-rectangle becomes a trapezium with major base on the bottom. If tilted downwards, the
generated target light-rectangle becomes a trapezium with major base on the bottom
adjust the Klemantis's tilting
- Narrow vertical gaps in light (10 - 30 cm), which appear on the cyclorama from either floor or ceiling Klemantis units.
• Clearance effect: there might be too large a clearance between two adjacent Klemantis units
reduce this clearance by installing the units closer
together.
- Uneven horizontal light distribution (>1 m), which appears on the cyclorama from either floor or top Klemantis units.
• The Klemantis units are not parallel to the cyclorama
re-arrange the units along a straight line which is parallel to the cyclorama.
- Vertical colour transition does not change horizontally in two-row installation, when floor and ceiling rows are set to two different colours.
• Tilting effect: if the Klemantis units on the same row are not tilted properly and equally, the light intensity varies on the cyclorama
adjust Klemantis
tilting.
