• This Lovely User Manual

Getting It Out Of The Box

Congratulations on your purchase of like, the most totally awesome to the max, G-Max™

150 LED moving head spot, OMG! Now that you’ve got your G-Max™ 150 (or hopefully,

G-Maxes!)

, you should carefully unpack the box and check the contents to ensure that

all parts are present and in good condition. If anything looks as if it has been damaged

in transit, notify the shipper immediately and keep the packing material for inspection.

Again,pleasesavethecartonandallpackingmaterials.Ifaxturemustbereturned

tothefactory,itisimportantthatthexturebereturnedintheoriginalfactoryboxand

packing.

Powering Up!

Allxturesmustbepowereddirectlyoffaswitchedcircuitandcannot be run off a

rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer

channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch.

AC Voltage Switch -Notallxtureshaveavoltageselectswitch,sopleaseverifythatthe

xtureyoureceiveissuitableforyourlocalpowersupply.Seethelabelonthextureor

refertothexture’sspecicationschartformoreinformation.Axture’slistedcurrent

ratingisitsaveragecurrentdrawundernormalconditions.Checkthextureordevice

carefully to make sure that if a voltage selection switch exists that it is set to the correct

line voltage you will use.

Warning! Verify that the voltage select switch on your unit matches the line

voltage applied. Damage to your xture may result if the line voltage applied

does not match the voltage indicated on the voltage selector switch. All xtures

must be connected to circuits with a suitable Ground (Earthing).

3. SETUP

Fuse Replacement

With a phillips head screwdriver, unscrew the fuse holder out of its

housing. Remove the damaged fuse from its holder and replace with

exact same type which is a 5A, 220V fuse. Reattach the fuse holder,

and then reconnect power.

Connecting A Bunch of G-Max™ 150 Fixtures™

You will need a serial data link to run light shows using a DMX-512

controllerortorunshowsontwoormorexturessettosyncinmas-

ter/slave operating mode. The combined number of channels required

byallthexturesonaserialdatalinkdeterminesthenumberofx-

tures the data link can support.

Fixtures on a serial data link must be daisy chained in one single line.

Also,connectingmorethan32xturesononeserialdatalinkwithout

the use of a DMX optically-isolated splitter may result in deterioration

of the digital DMX signal. The maximum recommended cable-run dis-

tance is 500 meters (1640 ft). The maximum recommended number

ofxturesonaserialdatalinkis32xtures.

Data/DMX Cabling

Tolinkxturestogetheryou’llneeddatacables.Youshouldusedata-

grade cables that can carry a high quality signal and are less prone to

electromagnetic interference.

Forinstance,Belden©9841meetsthespecicationsforEIARS-485

applications. Standard microphone cables will “probably” be OK, but

note that they cannot transmit DMX data as reliably over long distanc-

es. In any event, the cable should have the following characteristics:

2-conductor twisted pair plus a shield

Maximum capacitance between conductors – 30 pF/ft.

Maximum capacitance between conductor & shield – 55 pF/ft.

Maximum resistance of 20 ohms / 1000 ft.

Nominal impedance 100 – 140 ohms

Page 8

Cable Connectors

Cables must have a male XLR connector on one end and a female XLR

connector on the other end. (Duh!)

CAUTION:Donotallowcontactbetweenthecommonandthex-

ture’s chassis ground. Grounding the common can cause a ground

loop,andyourxturemayperformerratically.Testcableswithan

ohm meter to verify correct polarity and to make sure the pins are not

grounded or shorted to the shield or each other.

3-Pin??? 5-Pin??? Huh?!?

If you use a controller with a 5 pin DMX output connector, you will need to use a 5 pin to 3 pin adapter.

They are widely available over the internet and from specialty retailers If you’d like to build your own, the

chart below details a proper cable conversion:

Conductor 3-Pin Female

(Output)

5-Pin Male

(Input)

Ground/Shield Pin 1 Pin 1

DMX Data (-) Pin 2 Pin 2

DMX Data (+) Pin 3 Pin 3

Not Used. No Connection. No Connection.

Take It To The Next Level: Setting Up DMX Control

Step 1: Connect the male connector of the

DMX cable to the female connector (output)

on the controller.

Step 2: Connect the female connector of the

DMXcabletotherstxture’smaleconnec-

tor (input). Note: It doesn’t matter which

xtureaddressistherstoneconnected.

Werecommendconnectingthexturesin

terms of their proximity to the controller,

ratherthanconnectingthelowestxture

numberrst,andsoon.

Step 3:Connectotherxturesinthechain

from output to input as above. Place a DMX

terminatorontheoutputofthenalxture

to ensure best communication.

Page 9

Fixture Linking (Master/Slave Mode)

1. Connect the (male) 3 pin connector side of the

DMX cable to the output (female) 3 pin connector of

therstxture.

2. Connect the end of the cable coming from the

rstxturewhichwillhavea(female)3pinconnec-

tortotheinputconnectorofthenextxturecon-

sisting of a (male) 3 pin connector. Then, proceed

to connect from the output as stated above to the

inputofthefollowingxtureandsoon.

A quick note: Often,

the setup for Master-

Slave and Standalone

operation requires that

therstxtureinthe

chain be initialized for

this purpose via either

settings in the control

panel or DIP-switches.

Secondarily,thextures

that follow may also re-

quire a slave setting.

Check the “Operating Adjustments” section in this manual for com-

pleteinstructionsforthistypeofsetupandconguration.

Mounting & Rigging

ThisxturemaybemountedinanySAFEpositionprovidedthereis

enough room for ventilation.

It is important never to obstruct the fan or vents pathway. Mount the

xtureusingasuitable“C”or“O”typeclamp.Theclampshouldbe

ratedtoholdatleast10xthexture’sweighttoensurestructuralsta-

bility. Do not mount to surfaces with unknown strength, and ensure

properly“rated”riggingisusedwhenmountingxturesoverhead.

Adjusttheangleofthexturebylooseningbothknobsandtiltingthe

xture.Afterndingthedesiredposition,retightenbothknobs.

• When selecting installation location, take into consideration lamp

replacement access (if applicable) and routine maintenance.

• Safety cables MUST ALWAYS be used.

•Nevermountinplaceswherethexturewillbeexposedtorain,

high humidity, extreme temperature changes or restricted ventilation.

Page 10

Mounting Points

Overhead mounting requires extensive experience, which includes

calculating working load limits, knowledge of the installation material

being used, and periodic safety inspection of all installation material

andthexture.Ifyoulackthesequalications,donotattemptthe

installation yourself. Improper installation can result in bodily injury.

Caution!

Pleasebeaware,youshouldhaveaqualiedelectricianperformingall

of your electrical connection needs. Better safe than sorry!

Be sure to complete all rigging and installation procedures before

connecting the main power cord to the appropriate wall outlet.
