2- IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
2.1 Fire prevention:
The use of any other alternative lamp is not recommended and will null and void the fixture's warranty.
-Never locate the fixture on any flammable surface.
-Minimum distance from flammable materials: 1 MT.
-Minimum distance from the closest illuminable surface: 2 MT.
-Replace any blown or damaged fuses only with fuses of identical value. Refer to the wiring diagram if
there is any doubt.
-Connect the projector to mains power via a thermal magnetic circuit breaker.
2.2 Prevention of electric shock:
-High voltage is present inside the unit. Unplug the unit prior to performing any function which involves
touching the inside of the moving head, including lamp replacement.
-The level of technology present in the XR8 requires the assistance of specialised personnel for all
servicing. Please refer to an authorised DTS service centre.
-A good earth connection is essential for proper functioning of the projector.
-Never connect the unit without proper earth connection.
-The fixture should be located in places with a good air ventilation.
2.3 Protection against ultraviolet radiation:
-Never turn on the lamp if any of the lenses, filters or ABS covering is damaged. Their respective
shielding functions will only operate efficiently if they are in perfect working order.
-Never look directly the lamp when it is on.
2.4 Safety:
-The projector should always be installed with bolts, clamps and other tools that are capable of
supporting the weight of the unit.
-Always use a second safety cable to sustain the weight of the unit in case of the failure of the main
fixing point.
-The external surface of the unit, at various points, may exceed 70°C. Never handle the unit until at
least 10 minutes have elapsed since the lamp was turned off.
-Always replace the lamp if any physical damage is evident.
-Never install the fixture in an enclosed area lacking sufficient air flow. The ambient temperature should
not exceed 40°C.
-A hot lamp may explode, so always wait for at least 10 minutes prior to attempting to replace the lamp.
-Always wear suitable hand protection when handling the lamp.
2.5 Level of protection against the penetration of solid and liquid matter:
-The projector is classified as an ordinary appliance and its protection level against the penetration of
solid and liquid matter is IP 20.

4- VOLTAGE AND FREQUENCY
The XR8 with electronic ballast can operate at 90-245 VOLT 50 or 60 Hz.
The XR8 with electromagnetic ballast can operate at
5- INSTALLATION
XR8 may be either floor or ceiling mounted.
For floor mounting installations, the XR8 is supplied with four rubber mounting feet on the base.
For ceiling mounted installations, we reccomend the use of appropriate clamps to fix the unit to the
mounting surface.
The supporting structure from which the unit is hung should be capable of bearing the weight of the
unit, as should any clamps used to hung it. The structure should also be sufficiently rigid so as not to
move or shake whilst the XR8 is moving.
Four quarter turn fast locks placed on the base of the units,allows by using the two fast lock C clamps
provided in the box, to fix the unit in any position.
.
5.1- Safety cable
We recommend the use of a safety cable or chain connected to the XR8 and to the suspension truss in
order to avoid the fixture accidentally falling should the main fixing point fail. Make sure that the iron
cable or chain can bear the weight of the entire unit.
You may attach the safety chain to the two holes (A) located on the base of the fixture, as shown in the
picture below.
5.2- Protection against liquids
The projector contains electric and electronic components which should under no circumstances come
into contact with oil, water or any other liquid. The proper unit functioning would be compromised
should this occur.
230 V 50-60 Hz(Standard)
On request: 100 V 50-60 Hz /120 V 60 HZ / 208 V 60 Hz

XR 8 WASH
5.3- Movement
The projector has a maximum movement of 540° for Pan and 270° for Tilt. DO NOT place any
obstructions in the path of the projector's movement.
5.4- Risk of fire
Each fixture produces heat and must be installed in a well-ventilated place. The minimum recommended
distance from flammable material is 1 MT.
Minimum distance from the object being illuminated is 2 MT.
5.5- Forced ventilation
You will note, on inspection, that the unit features various air inlets and cooling fans located on both the
base and head of the fixture. These should, under no circumstances, be blocked or obstructed whilst the
projector is in operation.
Doing so could cause the fixture to seriously overheat thereby compromising its proper operation.
5.6- Ambient temperature
The projector should never be installed in places that lack a constant air flow. The ambient temperature
should NOT exceed 40°C.
6- MAINS CONNECTION
XR8 with electronic ballast operate at 90-245 VOLT 50-60 Hz.
XR8 with electromagnetic ballast operate at 230 VOLT 50-60 Hz
Prior to connecting the unit to your mains supply,
ensure that the model in your possession correctly matches
the mains supply available. For connection purposes,
ensure that your plug is capable of supporting 6,3 amps at 208-230V,
or16 amps at 100-120 V
Strict adherence to regulatory norms is strongly recommended.
6.1- Protection
The use of a thermal magnetic circuit breaker is recommended for each XR 8.
A good earth connection is essential for the correct operation of the projector.
7- DMX SIGNAL CONNECTION
The unit operates using the digital DMX 512 (1990) signal. Connection between the mixer and the
projector or between projectors must be carried out using a two pair screened ø 0.5 mm cable and a
CANNON XLR 5 or 3 pins connector.

Ensure that the conductors do not touch each other.Do not connect the cable ground to the XLR chassy
The plug housing must be isolated. Connect the mixer signal to the DMX IN projector plug and connect it
to the next projector by connecting the DMX OUT plug on the first projector to the DMX IN plug of the
second one.
In this way, all the projectors are cascade connected.
NB. If the display showing the DMX address flashes, then one of the following errors has occurred:
- DMX signal not present
- DMX address not valid
- DMX reception problem
The standard configuration of the XR8 is with XLR 5 pins connection.
To convert to an XLR 3 pins configuration proceed as follows:
1) Remove the 2 screws fixing the display cover panel to the unit (photo 1).
2) Remove the screws that fix the XLR connectors to the panel (photo 2).
3) Rotate the electronic card by 180° (photo 3).
4) Place the 3 pins XLR connectors in the special holes and close.
For Installations where long distance DMX cable connections are needed,we suggest to use a DMX
terminator.
The DMX terminator is a male XLR 3-5 pins connector with a 120 ohm resistor
Between pin 2 and 3.
The DMX terminator must be plugged into the last unit (DMX out panel connector) of the DMX line.

9- AUTOMATIC MODE (auto)
XR8 can work in automatic mode without a DMX controller.
First of all connect the projectors with a DMX cable (picture below).
To activate Auto mode on the first unit, use the menu to run through the different modes until AUTO
appears on the display, at this point press enter.
Now it is possible to select the Game P which is user programmable through REC mode.
To confirm game activation press ENTER.
9.1- Game P
The first unit that will function as a Master must be put in (AUTO) mode, the other projectors have to be
put in slave mode (selectable through the menu). This way all units will be synchronised with the master.
Please note that the projectors must be of the same model.
On the master unit it is possible to vary the speed of the GAME P (SPEE)
NB: It is possible to run GAME P on the other units even though these do not have GAME P programmed.
You can do this by setting the units to the same mode as the master is set before programming GAME P
(16CH DMX) and setting the DMX address to A001.
9.2-Rec Mode
It is possible to program your own game on the XR8 that will then run in AUTO mode (GAME P). Each
unit can have its own programmed game.
In REC mode each projector must be set to the same mode (16CH DMX).
For the programming of GAME P besides the channels necessary to control the unit a further 3 DMX
channels are needed. So that in REC mode if the 16CH mode is selected you will need 19 channels for the
program to work correctly.
Connect the unit to a DMX mixer/controller, every unit should be set to its own Address (See the
paragraph on DMX addresses). The projectors can also be of different models:XR8 Spot/Wash, XR7
Spot/Wash and XR 250 Spot/Wash. When you are in REC mode R.001 appears on the display (DMX
address).

-From 0-255 are displayed the programmable scenes (max 16 scenes M.001 M016)
-View channel:
-From 1-19 the unit runs the scene that has been saved in the unit memory and it is possible to
play through the other scenes using the scene channel.
-From 20-235 the unit runs the configuration given by the received input DMX values. With the
channel scene it is possible to pass from one scene to the next,while with REC it is possible to
record the selected scene.
-From 236-255 the unit runs the configuration given by the received DMX values from the
projector in that moment. It is possible to select a scene and then close the GAME P with the REC
channel.
-Recording channel (REC)
Records the set scene with a variation from 0 to 255 (the display flashes indicating that the scene has
been recorded).
You must keep the REC channel set to 0 and to run through the 255 only once you have decided to save
the scene. If GAME P is not closed, by indicating the last scene, in playback mode all 16 scenes will be
played through even if not programmed.
You can set the PAN and TILT motors at high speed on your XR8.
Press menu until you see SPEE.
Press ENTER and select a speed with UP-DOWN (there are 4 speeds). Confirm by pressing ENTER.
When you use speed 4 (the highest) PAN and TILT speed is very high and your projector may loose its
path. In this case, the encoder corrects the position.
Fan speed regulation makes it possible to reduce fan noise. However, the ambient temperature must be
less than 35° C.

15- PERIODIC CLEANING
15.1- Lenses and reflectors
Even a fine layer of dust can substantially reduce the luminous output . Regularly clean all lenses
and the reflector using a soft cotton cloth, dampened with a specialist lens cleaning solution.
15.2- Fans and air passages
The fans and air passages must be cleaned approximately every 6 weeks. This periodic cleaning
will depend of course, on the conditions in which the projector is operating. Suitable instruments
for performing this type of maintenance are a brush and a common vacuum cleaner or an air
compressor. If necessary, clean the fans and air passages more frequently.
16- PERIODIC CONTROLS
Lamp
The lamp should be replaced if there is any visible damage or deformation due to heat. This will
help to avoid the danger of the lamp exploding.
Mechanical parts
Periodically check all mechanical parts, gears, guides, belts, etc. for wear and tear, replacing them
if necessary. Periodically check the lubrication of all components, particularly the parts subject to
high temperatures. If necessary, lubricate with suitable lubricant, available from your D.T.S.
distributor. Check the tension of the belts and adjust it if necessary.
Electrical components
Check all electrical components for correct earthing and proper connection of all connectors;
refasten them if necessary.
Fuse replacement
Locate the fuse, which protects the lamp and electronics, in the base of the XR8.
Using a multimeter, test the condition of the fuse, replacing it with one of equivalent type if
necessary.
