Power Supply: Before plugging your unit in, be sure the source volt-

age in your area matches the required voltage for your American DJ®

LED Messenger.™ The American DJ®LED Messenger is available in

a 120v and 220v version. Because line voltage may vary from venue

to venue, you should be sure your unit voltage matches the wall outlet

voltage before attempting to operate you xture. Also be sure to only

use the included I.E.C. power cable supplied with the unit, this cable

matches the voltage and current requirements of the unit.

DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal pro-

tocol used by most lighting and controller manufactures as a form of

communication between intelligent fixtures and controllers. A DMX

controller sends DMX data instructions from the controller to the fix-

ture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from fixture to fixture

via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX

fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA “OUT” terminal).

DMX Linking: DMX is a language allowing all makes and models

of different manufactures to be linked together and operate from a

single controller, as long as all xtures and the controller are DMX

compliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using

several DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. The

order in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence

the DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned a DMX address

of 1 may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the

end, or anywhere in the middle. Therefore, the first fixture controlled

by the controller could be the last fixture in the chain. When a fixture

is assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send

DATA assigned to address 1 to that unit, no matter where it is located

in the DMX chain.

Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX

and Master/Slave Operation): The LED Messen-

ger can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The

LED Messenger is a three channel DMX unit. The

DMX address is set electronically using the con-

trols on the rear of the unit. Your xture and your

DMX controller require an approved DMX-512 110

Ohm Data cable for data input and data output

(Figure 1). We recommend Accu-Cable DMX cables. If you are making

LED Messenger Set Up

your own cables, be sure to use standard 110-120 Ohm shielded cable

(This cable may be purchased at almost all pro lighting stores). Your

cables should be made with a male and female XLR connector on

either end of the cable. Also remember that DMX cable must be daisy

chained and cannot be split.

LED Messenger Set Up

Notice: Be sure to follow gures two and three when making your own

cables. Do not use the ground lug on the XLR connector. Do not con-

nect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield

conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding

the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behavior.

Special Note: Line Termination.

When longer runs of cable are

used, you may need to use a terminator on the last unit to avoid erratic

behavior. A terminator is a 110-120 ohm 1/4 watt resistor which is con-

nected between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector (DATA + and

DATA -). This unit is inserted in the female XLR connector of the last

unit in your daisy chain to terminate the line. Using a cable terminator

(ADJ part number Z-DMX/T) will decrease the possibilities of erratic

behavior.

LED Messenger Master/Slave Configuration

In DMX Control mode you can use a Elation® DMX-512 con-

troller to select one of the many different programs, control the

speed of the program, operate strobe, or even activate sound

activity and set the sound sensitivity level. A DMX controller

allows you to create unique programs tailored to your individual

needs. Follow the set-up procedures on pages 6-8 as well as

the set-up specifications that are included with your DMX con-

troller.

Setting the DMX Address via On Board Control -

1. The LED Messenger uses three DMX channels. Channel 1

controls programs and sound activity, channel 2 controls either

the running speed of the program or the sound sensitivity level,

and channel 3 controls strobing rate. See page 20 for detailed

description of the DMX traits.

2. To control your fixture in DMX mode you must first assign

a DMX address to the fixture. Press the MODE button, until

“dXXX” is displayed. XXX represents whatever DMX address is

displayed.

2. Press either the UP or DOWN buttons to nd your desired

DMX address. Once you have found your desired DMX address

connect your DMX controller to the LED Messenger.

3. Use the controller’s faders to control the various DMX fixture

traits.

4. For longer cable runs (more than a 100 feet) use a terminator

on the last fixture.

5. For help operating in DMX mode consult the manual includ-

ed with your DMX controller.

Setting the DMX Address via IR Remote -

Note: When setting the DMX address via IR Remote point

LED Messenger DMX Control Mode

A Master/Slave conguration will allow you to link xtures together

and operate without a controller. In Master-Slave operation one

xture will act as the controlling unit and the others will react to

the controlling units programs. Any unit can act as a Master or

as a Slave. These instructions are for On Board set up and IR

Remote set up.

1. Using standard XLR microphone cables, daisy chain your

units together via the XLR connector on the rear of the units.

Remember the Male XLR connector is the input and the Female

XLR connector is the output. The rst unit in the chain (master)

will use the female XLR connector only - The last unit in the chain

will use the male XLR connector only. For longer cable runs we

suggest a terminator at the last fixture.

2. Select the fixture that you want to act as the Master, and

choose the mode of operation that you want to run.

3. On the Slave fixtures press the MODE button until “SLAv” is

displayed, or using the IR Remote press the SLAVE button.

LED Messenger Editing Phrases

To edit phrases you can use the included IR Remote or an

optional keyboard with PS/2 connection.

Phrases “rd.01”- “rd.10” are factory programmed phrases.

You are able to edit over these with prhases of your own.

You are able to store up to 15 phrases with each phrase

containing up to 30 characters only. “rd.01” - “rd.15” are

the storage ares for each phrase.

Note: It is easier to create phrases when the LED Mes-

senger is pointed at a smooth surface within a comfort-

able distance, so that you can clearly see what text you are

entering.

Creating a phrase using the included IR Remote -

1. Press the SELECT PROG button, and then the UP or DOWN

buttons until “Pr.01” is displayed.

2. Press the SELECT PROG button again, so that rd.XX is

displayed. XX will represet the current phrase number that is

displayed, 01-15.

3. Scroll to your desired phrase location, “rd.01”-”rd.15”, by

pressing either the UP or DOWN buttons. Once your have

found your desired phrase location press the EDIT button.

Note: If there is a phrase already stored in the current loca-

tion you have chosen, once you press the EDIT button that

phrase will be erased. You can always restore the factory

phrases (“rd.01”-”rd.10”) by pressing and holding the EDIT

button for 3 seconds, and then pressing 1, 6, 8, 1, 6, 8. This

restore function will not erase the phrases you have stored

in “rd.11”-”rd.15”.

“Ctrl” and “E” keys on the keyboard to enter edit mode.

tion you have chosen, once you press the EDIT button that

phrase will be erased. To restore the factory phrases please

6. Note: In these next instructions look to the surface you

are aiming the LED Messenger at. Four individual dotted lines

ing a phrase with the IR Remote you do not have to wait 2-3

seconds for the cursor to move to the next dotted line, you can

continue to type.

Note: It is better to take your time when creating a phrase.

If you type to fast mistakes can, and will likely be made.

space key will creat a space, and the backspace key will delete

your last character added.

9. After you have nished creating your full phrase press the
