Universal User Manual 12 V1.4 September 2012
Completion & testing
1) Plug in the unit & check that it goes through the initialisation sequence correctly. Check that the gel runs smoothly
& does not bind up on the TUR's.
2) Unplug the unit, replace the front cover & secure with the M3 screws.
3) Run a test sequence to allow the gel string to 'bed' in. The unit does not have to be attached to a lighting fixture to
perform this operation. It is recommended that run this sequence for a few minutes (or 3/4 times, end-to-end).
Note:
a) For normal operation, the start of the gel string is on the left-side TUR & the end of the string on the right-side
TUR, when viewed from the front of the unit.
b) Do not power lights without powering up the unit first. The fans must be running in order to protect gels from
premature failure.
c) High fan speed is recommended on all lighting fixtures of 750 Watts & above.
d) Use of a high quality IR filter on ellipsoidal lighting fixtures is strongly recommended, especially those with beam
angles of less than 30 degrees.
e) Poorly optimised lamps in some fixtures may result in premature gel failure.
2.5 Mounting the unit
Note: See drawing section of this manual.
The Chroma-Q Universal is designed for mounting in an upright position with the base of the unit below the fixture. Do not
mount in an inverted position with the base of the unit above the fixture, as the rising heat from the fixture may cause the gel
string damage.
The rear of the unit incorporates an integral universal mounting system, which allows the unit to be easily configured to fit on
fixtures from 158mm/6¼" to 275mm/10¾" frame size. This system consists of four brackets, held by eight screws, fixed to
eight (of possible sixteen) mounting stand-off fixings.
To alter the mounting brackets, simply loosen the two screws on each bracket, move the bracket to the required position and
re-tighten the screws. The brackets have a combination of letters & numbers stamped on them so that you can record the
particular sizes you use. Some examples of these bracket positions are given below and in the drawing section of this
manual:
