Pre-Event Preparations
1.1. Warm-up Procedures
Thirty minutes before the event, activate all equipment, engaging in a low-temperature preheating process. Verify all connections and inspect stage light equipment and lines simultaneously. The dim brightness during low-temperature preheating ensures optimal functioning. After 15 minutes of preheating, reset all equipment to zero for heat dissipation, which should last no less than 15 minutes. Once heat is dissipated, the music performance stage is ready. When guests exit, the lighting engineer should turn off all equipment, allowing it to cool for fifteen to twenty minutes. Seal or cover the equipment before leaving.
2. Routine Inspections
2.1. Attention to Detail
- Verify natural illumination of bulbs
- Ensure proper connections of all lighting equipment
- Confirm the functionality of light control switch, color changer control, computer light movement, etc.
- Test the DMX512 signal's ability to control lamps
- Check special effect equipment for common usage and required material levels (e.g., fog machine, snow machine)
3. Monthly Maintenance and Adjustments
3.1. Monthly Adjustments
In addition to daily and weekly checks, monthly adjustments require coordination across various departments. Tasks include:
Light Position Adjustment:
- Monthly realignment due to potential shifts or changes in the guest area.
- Mechanical Equipment Inspection:
- Evaluate scanner motors, color changer motors, and nozzles for special effects equipment.
- Line Check:
- Inspect for breakpoints, breakages, and leaks, considering potential human factors and accidents.
- Cleaning:
- Remove dust and debris inside and outside lighting, necessitating careful cleaning and cooperation.
- Fire Protection Equipment Check:
- Collaborate with the Security Department for a comprehensive review of fire prevention facilities and extinguishing equipment.
3.2. Ongoing Vigilance
In addition to regular checks, a continuous understanding of equipment and environmental conditions is crucial. Prompt action ensures a visually optimal environment with sufficient security.
This detailed guide ensures the longevity and optimal performance of stage light equipment, enhancing the overall quality of events.
