Sw Upd – The menu item allows you to update software in the fixture via the Robe Universal Interface. The following are required in order to update software:
– PC running Windows 95/98/2000/XP/7/8 or Linux – Software Uploader – Robe Universal Interface or Flash cable RS232/DMX (S.N.13050624) Note: Software update should execute a qualified person. If you lack qualification, do not attempt the update yourself and ask for help your ROBE distributor. DMX address, programs 1-3 and all items in the menu “Personality” will be set to their default (factory) values.

To update software in the fixture: I. Installation of the Robin miniPointe Software Uploader.
1. The Robin miniPointe Software Uploader program is available from the ROBE web site at WWW.robe.cz.
2. Make a new directory ( e.g. Robe_Uploader) on your hard disk and download the software to it. 3. Unpack the Software Uploader. II.Fixture software updating. 1. Connect DMX output of the Robe Universal Interface with the fixture. Connect USB input of the Robe Universal Interface with your PC (or, if you use the Flash cable, use it to connect serial port of your PC with the DMX input of the fixture)

Disconnect the fixture from the other fixtures in a DMX chain. Turn both the computer and the fixture on. Make sure the fixture´s lamp is switched off. 2. Switch the fixture to the updating mode (menu “Sw Upd”). Note: If you do not want to continue in software update, you have to switch off and on the fixture to escape from this menu.
We recommend to cancel all running programs before starting the Software Uploader. 3. Run the Software Uploader program.

Select Robe universal Interface (or suitable com, if you use the Flash cable) on the left side of the software uploader screen and then click on the Connect button.
If the connection is OK, click on the “Start Uploading” button to start uploading. It may take several minutes to perform software update.
If the option “Incremental Update” is not checked, all processors will be updated (including processors with the same software version).
If you wish to update only later versions of processors, check the “Incremental Update box”. Avoid interrupting the process. Update status is being displayed in the Info Box window. When the update is finished, the line with the text “The fixture is successfully updated” will appear in this window and the fixture will reset with the new software. Note: In the case of an interruption of the upload process (e.g. power cut), the fixture keeps the updating mode and you have to repeat the software update again.

7. RDM

This fixture supports RDM operation. RDM (Remote Device Management) is a bi-directional communications protocol for use in DMX512 control systems, it is the new open standard for DMX512 device configuration and status monitoring.
The RDM protocol allows data packets to be inserted into a DMX512 data stream without adversely affecting existing non-RDM equipment. By using a special ,,Start Code,” and by complying with the timing specifications for DMX512, the RDM protocol allows a console or dedicated RDM controller to send commands to and receive
messages from specific moving lights. RDM allows explicit commands to be sent to a device and responses to be received from it. The list of commands for Robin miniPointe is the following.

10. Maintenance and cleaning
It is absolutely essential that the fixture is kept clean and that dust, dirt and smoke-fluid residues must not build up on or within the fixture. Otherwise, the fixture`s light-output will be significantly reduced. Regular cleaning will not only ensure the maximum light-output, but will also allow the fixture to function reliably throughout its life. A soft lint-free cloth moistened with any good glass cleaning fluid is recommended, under no circumstances should alcohol or solvents be used!
DANGER ! Always disconnect the fixture from the mains before starting any maintenance work
If the fixture is connected to mains, high voltage is present at the heat sink of the lamp driver and at some parts of this lamp driver in the fixture head !

Air filter (fastened by means of the velcro fastener )

Lamp driver and its heat sink is under high voltage!
The front objective lens will require weekly cleaning as smoke-fluid tends to building up residues, reducing the light output very quickly. The cooling fans should be cleaned monthly. The interior of the fixture should be cleaned at least annually using a vacuum-cleaner or an air-jet. Dichroic colour filters and gobo wheel and the internal lenses should be cleaned monthly. Remove dust and dirt from the fans and cooling vents using a soft brush and vacuum-cleaner.
More complicated maintenance and service operations are only to be carried out by authorized distributors.
Important! Check the air filters in the fixture head periodically and clean before they become clogged!
Clean the air filters placed in the fixture head. Use a vacuum cleaner, compressed air or you can wash them and put back dry. After replacing the air filters, reset the elapsed time counter in the menu “Information” (Info—>Air Fil—>Ela T).
Checking plastic parts of the fixture. The plastic parts of the fixture should be checked for damages and beginning cracks at least every two months. In addition, the plastic part of the front lens has to be checked mechanically (by means of movement by the plastic part) if it is firmly fastened to the fixture. If hint of a crack is found on some plastic part, do not use the fixture until the damaged part will be replaced. Cracks or another damages of the plastic parts can be caused by the fixture transportation or manipulation and also ageing process may influence plastic materials. This checking is necessary for both fixed installations and preparing fixtures for renting. Any free moving parts inside of the fixture head, cracked plastic or any plastic part of front lens not sitting properly in place need to be immediately replaced.

Example of crack on the plastic part of the front lens (for illustrative purpose).
