Installing an animation wheel
The animation wheel module fits into the fixture at the back of the effects compartment (closest to the
color wheel). The module must be installed with the wheel facing towards the front of the fixture. The
module is supplied as:
• Frame, sliding car and motor assembly
• 3 x screws and 3 x standoffs (pillar bolts)
• Radial Breakup animation wheel
If you are not going to install a single-gobo or 4-gobo module,
we recommend that you use the supplied standoffs between the
wheel and its mounting hub. The standoffs bring the wheel
closer to the plane of focus of the framing module.
Important! If a gobo module is – or will be – installed, do not
use the standoffs.
To install the wheel:
1. See photo above right. If you are not going to install a gobo
module, apply a small amount of threadlocker (Loctite 222
recommended) to the threads of the three supplied
standoffs and fasten them to the hub. Use a torque driver to
tighten the standoffs to 0.5 Nm.
2. See photo on right. Note the position of the orientation hole
in the wheel and line it up with the mark on the hub (see
arrows in photos). Apply a small amount of threadlocker
(Loctite 222 recommended) to the threads of the three
supplied screws, then use them to fasten the animation
wheel onto the hub (or the standoffs, if installed). Use a
torque driver to tighten the screws to 0.5 Nm.
See photo on right. The angle of the shapes in the
animation effect can be adjusted manually by loosening the
two screws on top of the module, sliding the wheel
assembly sideways and re-tightening the screws:
• With the wheel assembly centered in the module, the
animated shapes in the projection will be vertical.
• With the wheel assembly moved to the left, looking from
the front of the fixture, the animated shapes in the
projection will be angled to the right.
• With the wheel assembly moved to the right, looking
from the front of the fixture, the animated shapes will be
angled to the left.
To install the animation wheel:
1. Check that power to the fixture is shut down. See photo
on right. With the wheel facing towards the front of the
fixture, slide the animation wheel module vertically down
into the rearmost module slot, just in front of the color
wheel. Take care not to damage the color wheel or
animation wheel while sliding the module into position.
2. When the module is correctly located in the head, fasten it
into position with its two Allen (hex) head mounting
screws. Use a torque driver to tighten the screws to a
torque of 2 Nm.
