The Platinum FLX Hybrid fixture has got a Dual independent optical system for perfect Spot and Beam projections.

In Beam mode, the hotspot is visible in its beam and projection to get the most possible output from your Platinum FLX. When changing to spot mode, the bulb housing slides back inside the unit to create place for another optical system to place in front of the bulb. This new optical system creates an even field projection, without any hotspot, just as you would wish in Spot mode.

In Gobo Wheel 1, the first slot is Open (Beam Mode) and the second slot is Open (Spot Mode). The only thing you need to do to change the Platinum FLX from Beam Mode to Spot Mode, is change Gobo Wheel 1 from slot 1, to slot 2. Obviously, every lighting desk solves this in another way. Therefore, in Quick Help, you can have a look how it’s solved in your desk. Using another desk and none of the mentioned solutions match with your desk?
