ABOUT GANTOM iQ AND iQx GOBOS
The Gantom iQ and Gantom iQx can project any pattern that is cut into a 19mm (3/4”) diameter disk.
Traditional gobos such as stainless steel or glass will work for permanent installations. For temporary
events, inexpensive full color gobos can be made from 35mm film slides or printed onto transparency
paper.
For full color film gobos visit: http://www.colorslide.com . It is important that you know
htttp://www.colorslide.com will print your gobo designs but cannot cut them into the correct circular
shape. For this we recommend purchasing a 19mm (3/4”) craft punch online or at a craft store. Please
note that film slides will fade over time as the film is a photosensitive material. Although this process
renders sharp full color images at a low price, these slides are designed for temporary use. Please
consider stainless steel or glass for permanent applications.
For stainless steel or glass gobos visit: http://www.gamonline.com or http://www.rosco.com
You can also create your own gobos as long as your able to create well defined patterns onto a 3/4″
(19mm) diameter disk that is less than 0.08″ (2mm) thick. You can also use a high resolution inkjet
printer to create full colored patterns onto transparency paper. However, due to the resolution of
typical printers and the amount of magnification with our optics, the projected pattern will not be as
sharp as a professionally made pattern. Use the following sizing information to design the images for
your own custom gobos:
Gobo Size
19mm (0.75in) Ø
Max Image Size (For Patterns)
15mm (0.59in) Ø
Max Image Size (For Text)
10mm (0.39in) Ø

GOBO INSTALLATION
1. To install your gobo, first remove the
lens assembly by unscrewing it counter-
clockwise.
2. Next, remove the gobo retainer ring by
turning it counter-clockwise
3. Insert the gobo
4. Install the gobo retainer ring by turning
it clockwise until you can no longer
easily turn it by hand. Then Re-attach
the lens assembly by turning it
clockwise until you can no longer easily
turn it by hand.
5. Adjust the zoom/focus by moving the
lenses along the lens slider. When the
lenses are close together, the image will
be wider. When the lenses are far
apart, the image will be narrower.

DMX CHANNEL MAPPING
POWER AND WIRING REQUIREMENTS
The Gantom iQ and Gantom iQx have a maximum fixture wattage of 2.8W and an operating voltage of
12V DC. For recommended power supplies check http://www.gantom.com/power-supplies/
Rather than using a typical XLR cable for carrying the DMX signal, Gantom iQx
fixtures use 3.5mm TRS cables. Gantom makes the an XLR 5 Pin to 3.5mm TRS
adapter (product number CB51) that is perfect for connecting into an XLR based
DMX environment.
Additionally, screw terminal adapters are
included with every fixture to simplify
custom wiring. You can screw bare wires
directly into these adapters.

ADDRESSING YOUR GANTOM iQx
Due to its compact size, the Gantom iQx cannot use a physical DIP switch for addressing. Instead, the
Gantom iQx is programmed using the DMX Programmer App by Gantom. In addition to setting the DMX
starting address for the fixture, the app allows you to save a default brightness for the fixture if the
application does not require any DMX control.
By default, the DMX starting address will be 1. The Gantom iQx will flash several times when it is
powered on to indicate its starting address. If the Gantom iQx is assigned to address 245 it will report its
address by flashing 2 times, pausing briefly, then flashing 4 times, pausing briefly, then flashing 5 times.
If it is assigned to DMX address 038, it will flash 3 times, pause briefly, then flash 8 times. Address
reporting at startup can be toggled off in the settings menu covered later in this document.
What you need:
oAn Android or iOS device for running the Gantom Programmer app. Please note that a
headphone port is required to connect to the device to the fixture. The iPhone7 does work
with, but you will need to use the headphone port adapter that is included with the phone.
oA male-to-male 3.5mm audio 3.5mm cable. This is the same type of cable that you would use to
connect your Android or iOS device to headphones or to an AUX port.
oPower supply for the fixture. All Gantom fixtures accept 12v DC power. We recommend using
one of our PowerPak Mini units if you are just going to power a single fixture.
oThe free DMX Programmer app by Gantom. This can be found by searching “Gantom” in iTunes
for an Apple device or Google Play for an Android device
First, open the DMX Programmer app by Gantom. The app will open to
the screen you see here. From this screen, select the Gantom iQx.
The app will then provide you instructions on how to connect the light
fixture to the tablet or smartphone. Please note the order in which the
cables should be connected. First connect the headphone cable to the
light fixture and to the tablet/smartphone. Also be sure that the volume
on your device is set to maximum. Next, connect the power to the
fixture. When prompted by the app, tap the “Next” button and you will
be taken to the control screen.

CONTROL SCREEN
oAddress –This box shows the address that will be
assigned to the fixture if you hit the “Assign Address”
button
oAssign Address –Hitting this button will assign the
selected address to the fixture. The light fixture should
blink in response to having a new address assigned.
oSave button –this will allow you to save a settings
profile into the app. Use this if you need to configure
many fixtures to have the exact same settings. Please
note that this button DOES NOT save the current profile
or address to the fixture.
oControl Sliders –the control sliders will allow you to
set the intensity (brightness) of the light as well as the
speed of whichever pre-defined macro effect is selected.
Setting the “Speed”slider above 0% will start a strobe
effect with variable speed if no effect has been selected.
oStore as Default –hitting this will save the current
brightness and pre-defined macro effect to be the
default state for the light when it turns on. If the light
does not see DMX signal when it is powered on, it will go
to this state.
oPre-Defined Macros –Selecting this button will bring
up a set of pre-made special effects like strobe, pulse,
and flicker.

OTHER OPTIONS SCREEN
If you hit the “Other Options” button on the control screen, the following menu appears:
oReset - selecting this will reset the fixture to its default
factory settings. Do this if you are running into programming
issues.
oToggle Silent Bootup –By default, the fixture will flash to
report its DMX address when it is powered on. Hitting the
“Toggle Silent Bootup” setting will turn address reporting at
startup on or off.
oLock/Unlock 9600 –The Gantom iQx fixture can listen to
either a standard DMX signal OR to the special control signal
that comes from the app. Lock 9600 will turn OFF the
fixture’s ability to listen to DMX and ONLY allow it to be
controlled through the app interface. For most applications it
is recommended that you keep “UNLOCK 9600” selected.
