This document provides instructions for setting up stage lighting equipment. It asks a series of yes/no questions to check that key components are in place and properly installed, including ensuring there are enough fresnel lights, safety chains are attached, G-clamps are correctly positioned, lights are the right way up, gels and frames are installed, barn doors are attached, plugs are in dimmers and sockets match, and the lamp tray and main power plug are securely connected. Instructions are provided for resolving any issues.

1. Are there 10 fresnels in the rig?
If No, look for themas they may be in other rooms or eveninanother rig for
another show. Ask Julie if that’s the case.
Do all the lights have safety chains
attached to them?
If No, Grab some ladders and attachthe safety chain to the rig. If there is no
safety chainthere at all you will find themat the back of the hall on a hook.
Do all the lights have a g clamp
attached to them?
If No, You can find G clamps in the back of the hall on the lighting rack if one
isn’t already attached.
Is the G clamp attached properly? For example is the G clamp on the on the
top of the arm and not hooked under.
Yes No
This is how one
should be put on
correctly on the
top of the arm of
the light.
Are all the plugs pushed in properly?
If No, push the plugs inso the pins are in the sockets.

2. Are the lights rigged properly for example
if they are upside down.
You would know this with a Fresnelthe
adjustableknob would be facing the floor
if it was rigged right.
If No, grab a ladder and un attachthe safety chain thenthe G clamp and put
the light the right way round and put the G clamp back on and the safety
chain.
Do the lights have gel frame and gel to
go in the frame? A gel is a piece of colour
material that fits in the frameto make it shine the
colour you want.
If No, the frames can be found on the wall above the lighting rack at the back
of the hall. The gels can be found in a cabinet at the back of the hall.
Is the gel cut to the rightsize? You would be
able to tell this if it is too big by the sides as it
wouldn’tbe put in the gel frame properly
simply because it won’tfit.
If No, you shouldget the gel frame down and cut around the outside of the
gel and it will be the perfect size.
Do all the lights have barn doors?
If No, they can be found at the back of the hall hooked above the lighting
rack, and you can easily attachit tothe light by just sliding it in the light.
Are the plugs in the dimmers?
If No simply plug them in.

3. This is what the plugs look like, soplug themintothe correct dimmer.
Are they plugs of the lights in the correct sockets
and also the correctdimmers on the desk.
For example is there a light that is plugged
into 15 in the rig but also has to be number
15 plugged into the dimmers.
If No, you must match the plug sockets inthe rig and
plug themin the dimmers, they are labelledonthe
plugs.
This is what a dimmer pack looks like for you to check the correct sockets.
Is the lamp tray pushed in properly,
you may get electrocuted if you didn’t notice
and came to plugging everything in.
If No, just simply push it back in.
