Affected Products:
- ERA 700 Performance IP
Summary:
Operating the fixture at very slow gobo wheel rotation speeds can cause the gobo wheel to warp over time due to localized heat build up.
The warped wheel can then physically obstruct nearby effects inside the module.
Troubleshooting:
Update the fixture firmware to v1.1.1 or newer via the Martin Companion application.
This version includes a software correction that prevents gobo wheel warping at very slow rotation speeds.
If the procedure above did not resolve your issue, please contact HARMAN Service for next steps.
