Starlight Fitting and Lining Care Instructions

Starlight Fitting Instructions

INSTRUCTIONS FOR ASSEMBLING 2-CHANNEL STARLIGHT ELECTRIC SYSTEM

  1. Raise linings in normal way but to waist height only.
  2. Ensure the Master Looms (2 off per cloth) are situated along the same side of the cloth(s) and plug into next Master Looms if further roofs to be connected.
  3. Plug each Master Loom into a transformer using low voltage leads supplied (each
    transformer will run approximately 320 bulbs).
  4. Connect each Transformer to the Cross Fade Controller.   This controller then
    should be connected to the mains 13amp power supply.
  5. Check operation of lighting system before pulling up linings in the normal way.

Starlight Linings fitting and care Instructions

Care

  • Take care with handling - the bulbs are fragile (do not stand on roofs when installing)
  • Ensure linings are kept clean and dry.
  • When fitting check wiring looms are not caught on sewn on hooks.
  • When removing, fold carefully with bulbs to the inside and return to bin provided.

Installation

  • Always ensure black master looms are all down one side.
  • Ensure all plugs are connected correctly together.
  • On 2-channel roofs make sure yellow goes to yellow and blue-to-blue.
  • 2 channel roofs require 2 transformers (1 per channel)
  • Tie the centre of roofs to lifting poles.
  • Lift roofs to just above head height.
  • Fit outer edges to eaves.
  • Velcro roofs together.
  • Connect to mains and check electrics are functioning.
  • Lift to desired height.

Wiring

  • Input  = 240v.
  • Single transformers will run 300 bulbs safely.
  • This equates to a maximum of 2 x 12m roofs or 3 x 9m roofs (single channel).
  • 2 transformers will run 3 x 15m two-channel roofs.
  • There is a thermal reset on each transformer. Damp or overload are common causes of tripping.
  • Roof circuits run at 26v
  • Lamp looms fused with 2amp slow burn fuses

Safety

  • Do not remove plugs fitted to transformers.
  • Each transformer is fitted with a thermal reset button.
  • Damp or over load are common causes of tripping.
  • Lamploom fuses will blow if there are more than six bulbs out or if there is a short circuit.
  • Approx. power requirements.  9m =140w 12m =160w   15m =120w per channel
  • Roof circuits run at 26v
  • Lamp looms fused with 2amp slow burn fuses
  • Spare fuses are available if required. (If hire roof they are located in lid of bin)

Simple Fault finding

  • Whole roof not working

    1. If transformer trips check for damp in plugs or over load of circuit.
    2. If lights are not working check roofs are plugged together and are connected to the mains and the mains supply is working.
    3. Check you have the maximum amount of roofs connected for the transformer to run.

  • Single lamp loom not working

    1. Check lamp loom fuse, spares available if required. (If hire roof they are located in lid of bin)
    2. Check if the bayonet connection is loose or lamp loom holder damaged.
