Disconnect from the mains supply before lamping. Be aware also that the lamp or luminaire may still be hot,
so exercise the necessary caution to avoid burns.
Please dispose of any lamps
as per the manufacturer‟s instructions.
Access to the lamp is by the bottom-hinged door, which is fastened with a side clip. Push the clip to release the door. Use
the ejector to remove the failed lamp. Align the pins of the new lamp to the correct holes (they are different sizes) and
push the lamp firmly home. Do not touch the quartz envelope of the lamp with your fingers
– use the sheath supplied to
insert the lamp. Close the door and reconnect the luminaire to the power supply.
Point luminaire at blank white wall 4-8m away and focus light to narrow angle
– front lens forward rear lens back. To
obtain sharp focus adjusts rear lens only.
Adjust lamp peak/flat knob
– towards back for flattest field and forward for peaked position. Reconnect the luminaire
to the power supply and bring up on the dimmer.
Focusing your Zoomspot:
The variable beam of your Acclaim Zoomspot is altered by adjusting the front and rear lens in relation to one another. The
front lens defines the beam spread; the rear, the focus degree of softness or sharpness of the beam edge or shutters.
Finger tight pressure is only necessary to lock the lens off in their required positions.
To find the narrow angle of the beam range:
18º-34º
– move front lens to front of luminaire, adjust rear lens to required focus
24º-44º
– move rear lens back to rear of slot. Move front lens to define beam angle (24°), approximately 95mm
from front of lens tray
Peak/Flat Light Distribution:
The lamp position can be altered to peak or flatten the light output of
Zoomspots.
The peak beam gives a central hot spot falling off evenly to the beam edges.
This setting is useful for normal stage lighting purposes where beams are
overlapped to achieve an even cover.
Flat adjustment provides a visually even light beam suitable for gobo
projection. Take care to move the lamp carefully as the lamp filament is
burning h
ot and at its most vulnerable. Don‟t over tighten the lamp tray knob;
finger tight pressure is all that is required.
