Strong Neodym Magnet - Danger of Injury!
Neodym magnets are extremely powerful. The very
strong force between the magnets can cause serious
injuries. Fingers and other parts of the body can be
trapped between two magnets. Strong magnets can
affect the operation of pacemakers or other implanted
medical devices.
ARRI is not liable for damages caused by improper use or incor-

To use the Control Panel

The control panel can be used directly at the Orbiter or via a con-
necting cable remote from the Orbiter. If two controllers are
used, the controller on the connecting cable has priority.
When used directly on the Orbiter, the control panel is held mag-
netically in the recess at the rear of the luminaire (see figure be-
low). The control panel automatically connects to the luminaire
when it is inserted into the recess.
To Remove and to Insert the Control Panel
The control panel may be removed and inserted with the lumi-
naire powered. The last setting of the luminaire is retained when
the control panel is removed.
To remove the control panel:
• Push the control panel slightly to the left.
• Lift the control panel out of the recess on the right.
• Pull the control panel to the right out of the recess.
To insert the control panel:
• Push the control panel diagonally to the left into the recess.
• Press the right side of the control panel into the recess and
push it to the right until it locks in place. The control panel is
magnetically fixed in the recess. When the luminaire is pow-
ered, the control panel is ready for operation after a short
time.
Drop Out of Control Panel - Danger of Injury!

ly in the luminaire. Danger of injury through falling

To Connect and Disconnect the Control Panel Cable
• Plug the 4-pin Lemo connector of the connector cable into
the connector of the luminaire and the control panel. The
connector locks automatically.
• Pull back the ring of the Lemo connector to unlock the con-
nector and pull out the connector.
Operation
The control panel uses LiOS (Lighting Operating System) and
provides fast, intuitive access to all functions of the luminaire.
The high-resolution color display clearly shows all relevant infor-
mation. Operation is very simple, because the commands and
functions are called up in a uniform pattern.
User Manual

structions, including software updates and the menu structure of
the luminaire.
The user manual is available for free download on the

ware version is available for the Orbiter. For best perfor-
mance we strongly recommend to use the luminaire with the

startup automatically and upgrade the firmware if neces-
sary.
