3. Installation

3.1 Connection to mains

Fixtures must be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with all national

and local electrical and construction codes and regulations.

This device falls under class one and must be grounded!

The Strobe IP is equipped with auto-switching power supply that automatically adjusts to any 50-60Hz AC power

source from 100-240V (CE) or 100-277 V (US). The fixture must be connected to a non-dimmable power source in

order to avoid damage to its internal power supply and other electrical components.

Connect the fixture to the mains by means of inbuilt power cord with the plug.

3.2 Mounting the fixture

The Strobe IP can be arranged in any position/orientation without altering its operation characteristics. The LED

module can be tilted to desired position by means of the tilt lock. Use an Allen key 6 to adjust desired tilt position.

4. Power and DMX connection

5. Rubber legs

Strobe IP

The fixture is equipped with two pairs of rubber legs for standing on the floor or can be fastened on a non-

flammable surface by means of the Surface Mount Adapter Strobe IP (optional accessories).

Before installing the Surface Mount Adapter Strobe IP (1), remove both rubber legs holders (1) by unscrewing the

four screws (2).

Screw the mounting adapter (3) to the base of the fixture by means of the six screws M8x20 (4).

Ensure that the structure to which you are attaching

the fixture is secure.

Caution: Overhead installation requires experience. Fixtures may cause severe injuries when crashing down! If you

have doubts concerning the safety of a possible installation, do not install the device and consult installation with

an expert.

3.3 DMX 512 connection

The fixture is equipped with 5-pin XLR connectors for DMX input/output.

Only use a shielded twisted-pair cable

designed for RS-485 and 5-pin XLR connectors in order to connect the controller with the fixture or one fixture

with another.

Wiring of the XLR connectors:

XLR socket: XLR plug:

To build a DMX chain

1. Connect the DMX output of the controller directly with the DMX input of the first fixture in the DMX chain.

2. Connect the DMX output of the first fixture in the DMX chain with the DMX input of the next fixture.

3. Always connect the DMX output with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are connected.

Do not overload the link. Max. 32 fixtures may be connected on a DMX link.

Caution: Terminate the link by installing a termination plug in the output of the last fixture. The termination plug is

a male 5-pin XLR plug (IP 66 rating) with a 120 Ohm resistor soldered between Signal (–) and Signal (+).

Warning:

Fixture´s XLR connectors are dust and water protected according to IP 67 by mating with related XLR cable

connectors.

They cannot stay disconnected outdoor. DMX output connector (XLR female) at the last fixture in a DMX line

has to be covered with the rubber cap before inserting a terminator. The rubber cap does not supply the

terminator.

The XLR terminator (male) has to be dust and water protected.

If the fixture is to be outdoor without connecting to DMX line, always interconnect its DMX input with DMX output

to keep declared IP rating of XLR connectors.
