Powering On the Fixture

Caution:
Do not power on the fixture until verifying that the line cord cap is
suitable for the power source in your location.
Warning:
This equipment for connection to a branch circuit having a
maximum overload protection of 20 A.
The x.SpotXtreme fixture does not have a power switch. To power on the fixture,
simply connect it to an appropriately-rated power source. Once connected, controller
commands can remotely power up or shutdown the fixture (see Appendix A for DMX
Tables). However, it is very important to disconnect power to the fixture before
performing certain procedures shown in this manual.

Homing the Fixture

When the x.SpotXtreme fixture is connected to an appropriately-rated power source,
it automatically begins a homing procedure to verify that the major functions of the
fixture (color wheels, iris, and shutter) are oriented properly. For information on
remotely homing the fixture via a DMX controller, (see Appendix A for DMX Tables).
The initial homing ends with the display in the Menu Locked mode.

Viewing the Display Panel

The x.SpotXtreme display panel gives access to the fixture's onboard Menu System.
When the Menu System is in locked mode, the panel displays in large 8-character
words designed to be viewed from a distance. Under normal circumstances, when the
display is locked, it cycles between displaying the fixture's software version
[V##.##], the High End Systems logo, the x.Spot logo, the fixture's configuration
type [STANDARD] and the fixture's DMX start channel [DMX_C###]. Any errors present
are also displayed in an 8-character error description. Chapter 3 describes the menu
system in detail.

Fixture Software Version

The software version loaded on the fixture can vary even between units purchased at
the same time. "Verifying and Uploading Fixture Software" on page 2-10 describes
the procedures to ensure that all x.SpotXtreme fixtures on the link are running the
latest software.

Fixture Configuration Type

The configuration type indicates the fixture's modular setup. The Standard
configuration shown in the example above contains Six-Wheel Color Mixing in Slot
1, Dual Rotating Gobos in Slot 2 and Rotating Gobo and Iris in Slot 3. See Table 3-2
on page 3-20 for alternate 8-character configuration type descriptions.
