Wireless remote control operation:

To control the xture via wireless remote control rst set the channel on the control panel of the unit.

E.g. If channel 1 is set then to activate the unit press the 1 button on the RF remote. This function

allows multiple xtures to be triggered at different times, controlled from one remote.

Ensure the handheld remote is tted with a good quality battery (A23 12V Alkaline).

Press the correct button as per the list below to select the required mode of operation.

DMX mode:

Operating in a DMX control mode environment gives the user the greatest exibility when it comes

to customising or creating a show. In this mode you will be able to control each individual trait of

the xture and each xture independently.

To access the DMX address, press the “ENTER” button and use the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons

to set the required DMX address. Press the “ENTER” button to conrm the setting.

Manual operation mode:

To access manual operation, press both the “MENU” and “ENTER” buttons together to activate.

Press both buttons again to deactivate.

Operating instructionsOperating instructions

Installation:

Do not orientate the output nozzle directly in the direction of the audience’s eyes.

In order to create the best effect, there should be a distance between the unit and the audience

of at least 3m.

This unit is constructed for a free standing or hanging installation. If the unit is to be installed overhead,

please follow the safety instructions below:

Rigging installation:

The installation has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10 times the weight

of the unit(s) to be installed for 1 hour without any deformation.

The unit must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. an appropriate catch net

or safety wire. The secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that no part of the

installed unit can fall down if the main attachment fails.

When rigging, derigging or servicing, do not allow personnel to be directly underneath the unit.

The operator must always make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations are

approved by an expert before operation for the rst time and after any further changes are made.

The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations

are approved by a qualied person once a year.

Replacing the fuse:

Only replace the fuse with a fuse of same type and rating.

Before replacing the fuse, disconnect from the mains, see the following for procedure:

Step 1: Open the fuse holder on the rear panel with a suitable screwdriver.

Step 2: Remove the old fuse from the fuse holder.

Step 3: Install the new fuse in the fuse holder.

(Replacement fuses should be of the same value as originally supplied)

Step 4: Replace the fuse holder in the housing.

Should you need any spare parts, only use genuine parts.

If defective, please dispose of the unusable unit in accordance with the current legal regulations.

Should you have any further questions, please contact your dealer.

Setting the DMX address:

The DMX mode enables the use of a universal DMX controller. Each xture requires a “start address”

from 1- 512. A xture requiring one or more channels for control begins to read the data on the channel

indicated by the start address. For example, a xture that occupies or uses 7 channels of DMX and was

addressed to start on DMX channel 100, would read data from channels: 100, 101, 102, 103, 104,

105 and 106. Choose a start address so that the channels used do not overlap. E.g. the next unit in

the chain starts at 107.

DMX 512:

DMX (Digital Multiplex) is a universal protocol used as a form of communication between intelligent

xtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions form the controller to the xture.

DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from xture to xture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT”

XLR terminals located on all DMX xtures (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 xtures try to use the shortest

cable path possible. The order in which xtures are connected in a DMX line does not inuence the

DMX addressing. For example; a xture assigned to a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in

a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle. When a xture 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 operation):

This xture can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The DMX address is set on the back of the unit.

Your unit requires either a standard 3-pin or 5-pin XLR connector for data input/output,

see images below.

Also remember that DMX cable must be daisy chained and cannot be split.

DMX setup

Further DMX cables can be purchased from all good sound and lighting suppliers or Prolight Concepts dealers.

Notice:

Be sure to follow the diagrams below when making your own cables.

Do not connect the cables shield conductor to the ground lug or

allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLRs

outer casing. Grounding the shield could cause a short circuit

and erratic behaviour.

Line termination:

When longer runs of cable are used,

you may need to use a terminator on

the last unit to avoid erratic behaviour.

Using a cable terminator will decrease

the possibilities of erratic behaviour.

(3-pin - Order ref: CABL90,

5-pin - Order ref: CABL89)

5-pin XLR DMX connectors:

Some manufactures use 5-pin XLR connectors for data transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin XLR xtures

may be implemented in a 3-pin XLR DMX line. When inserting standard 5-pin XLR connectors in to a

3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used. The diagram below details the correct cable conversion.
