USING THE OPERATING POLE FOR SETUP, INSTALLATION, AND CONFIGURATION

Thanks to its four plastic feet, the spotlight can be placed in a suitable location on a flat surface. Install on a crossbeam using the integrated 28 mm TV spigot (A) and a suitable crossbeam clamp (not supplied). Make sure that the spotlight is firmly attached and secure it using a suitable safety cable on the designated location on the top of the spotlight (B). Use the laterally attached yellow bell-shaped knob (C) to adjust the beam angle (zoom) with the operating pole. The blue bell-shaped knob (D) is used to horizontally adjust the beam direction (pan) and the white bell-shaped knob (E) to vertically adjust beam direction (tilt). A 6 mm hex key (F) is used to adjust the tilt for the slip clutch in the drive unit.
Important safety information Overhead installation requires extensive experience, which includes calculating the limit values of the working load of the installation material to be used and regular safety inspections of all installation material and spotlights. If you do not have these qualifications, do not attempt to carry out the installation yourself; contact a professional company.

BARN DOOR AND FILTER FRAME INSTALLATION/DISASSEMBLY/CLEANING OF LENSES

Separate the device completely from the power supply. To install or disassemble the barn door and filter frame, please press the spring-loaded lock pins (A) on the retaining bracket so that it flips upwards. Return the retaining bracket to the original position so that the lock pins click back into their locked position.
The Fresnel lens (B) and its rubber frame as well as the glass lens behind it (C) can be cleaned by flipping the retaining bracket upwards as previously described and then drawing the Fresnel lens and its rubber frame upwards out of the retaining bracket. Clean the Fresnel lens with a moist, lint-free cloth. The glass lens should be cleaned with a special optical cloth. Put the Fresnel lens in front of the glass lens and return the bracket mechanism to its downward position until the lock pins click into place.

Important safety notice!
For safety reasons, the filter frame must always be in the respective bracket on the spotlight, even if no filter is inserted!

DMX TECHNOLOGY

DMX-512
DMX (Digital Multiplex) is the designation for a universal transmission protocol for communications between corresponding devices and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data to the connected DMX device(s). The DMX data is always transmitted as a serial data stream that is forwarded from one connected device to the next via the “DMX IN” and “DMX OUT” connectors (XLR plug-type connectors) that are found on every DMX-capable device, provided the maximum number of devices does not exceed 32 units. The last device in the chain needs to be equipped with a terminator (terminating resistor).

DMX CONNECTION
DMX is the common “language” via which a very wide range of types and models of equipment from various manufacturers can be connected with one another and controlled via a central controller, provided that all of the devices and the controller are DMX compatible. For optimum data transmission, it is necessary to keep the connecting cables between the individual devices as short as possible. The order in which the devices are integrated in the DMX network has no influence on the addresses. Thus the device with the DMX address 1 can be located at any position in the (serial) DMX chain: at the beginning, at the end or somewhere in the middle. If the DMX address 1 is assigned to a device, the controller “knows” that it should send all data allocated to address 1 to this device regardless of its position in the DMX network.
SERIAL CONNECTION OF MULTIPLE LIGHTS

1. Connect the male XLR connector (3-pin or 5-pin) of the DMX cable to the DMX output (female XLR socket) of the first DMX device (e.g. DMX-Controller).
2. Connect the female 3-pin XLR connector of the DMX cable connected to the first projector to the DMX input (male 3-pin socket) of the next DMX device. In the same way, connect the DMX output of this device to the DMX input of the next device and repeat until all devices have been connected. Please note that as a rule, DMX devices are connected in series and connections cannot be shared without active splitters. The maximum number of DMX devices in a DMX chain should not exceed 32 units.

The Adam Hall 3 STAR, 4 STAR, and 5 STAR product ranges include an extensive selection of suitable cables.
DMX CABLES
When fabricating your own cables, always observe the illustrations on this page. Never connect the shielding of the cable to the ground contact of the plug, and always make certain that the shielding does not come into contact with the housing of the XLR plug. If the shielding is connected to the ground, this can lead to short-circuiting and system malfunctions.
