Always allow free air space of at least 50 cm around the unit for ventilation.
Make sure that the area below the installation place is blocked when rigging, derigging or servicing the unit.
For mounting height >100 cm, always fix the unit with an appropriate safety-rope. Fix the safety-rope at the correct fixation points only. The safety-rope must never be fixed at the transport handles!
Never look directly at the light beam. Please note that fast changes in lighting, e. g. flashing light, may trigger epileptic seizures in photosensitive persons or persons with epilepsy.
This unit is not designed for permanent operation. Consistent operation breaks will ensure that the unit will serve you for a long time without defects.

WARNING! If the power cord of the unit is equipped with an earthing contact, then it must be connected to an outlet with a protective ground. Never deactivate the protective ground of a power cord.

Clean the unit using a dry cloth.
Do not touch the unit bare-handed during its operation (housing becomes very hot). Allow the unit to cool for at least 5 minutes before handling.
Do not expose this unit to flammable materials, fluids or gases.
If the unit has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g. after transportation), do not switch it on immediately. The arising condensation water might damage your unit. Leave the unit switched off until it has reached room temperature.
Never attempt to bypass the thermostatic switch or fuses.
Do not dismantle or modify the unit.
For replacement use fuses/bulb of same type and rating only.
Repairs, servicing and electric connection must be carried out by a qualified technician.
The ambient temperature must always be between -20° C and +40° C.
If this unit is operated in any other way, than the one described in this manual, the product may suffer damages and the warranty becomes void.

UNPACKING INSTRUCTION

CAUTION! Immediately upon receiving the product, carefully unpack the carton, check the contents to ensure that all parts are present, and have been received in good condition. Notify the shipper immediately and retain packing material for inspection if any parts appear damage from shipping or the package itself shows signs of mishandling. Save the package and all packing materials. In the event that the product must be returned to the factory, it is important that the product be returned in the original factory box and packing.

If the unit has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g. after transportation), do not switch it on immediately. The arising condensation water might damage your unit. Leave the unit switched off until it has reached room temperature.

POWER SUPPLY

On the label on the backside of the unit is indicated on this type of power supply must be connected. Check that the mains voltage corresponds to this, all other voltages than specified, the light effect can be irreparably damaged. The product must also be directly connected to the mains and may be used. No dimmer or adjustable power supply.

The unit has a powerconnector output on board. Depending on the local conditions several units can be linked by powerconnector in- and output. Connect a maximum of four (when using 230V/16A) units in a row. Use an approved three-core cable with a cross-section of at least 1.5 mm². The installation instructions of the manufacturer and the colour coding of the cable must be observed. Do not turn off the unit by turning the powerconnector but use the power on/off switch or schuko!

WARNING! Always connect the unit to a protected circuit (circuit breaker or fuse). Make sure the unit has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the risk of electrocution or fire.

RIGGING

In temporary installations, you can suspend the fixture from a rigging truss by means of a rigging clamp that is approved for the weight of the fixture securely fastened through the hole in the center of the bracket (A). The fixture must be installed hanging vertically downwards only. When using a rigging clamp, secure the fixture with a safety cable, that is approved for the weight of the fixture so that the safety cable will hold the fixture if the rigging clamp fails. Remove as much slack as possible from the safety cable (by looping it more than once around the truss chord, for example). Check that the truss and all fasteners used can support 10 times the weight of all the fixtures and equipment that they will support.

When carrying out any installation, always comply European and national guidelines concerning rigging, truss and all other safety issues. Always let the installation checked out by an authorized dealer!

TROUBLE SHOOTING

The checklist below may help you troubleshoot in the unlikely event that a problem occurs while using the product:

SYMPTOM	POSSIBLE CAUSE	SUGGESTED ACTION
No response from unit.	No power to unit.	Check that power is turned on.

Do not attempt to replace a fuse or carry out any repairs or service that are not described in this User Manual unless you have both authorization from Beamz support or Beamz authorized service partner.
Unit resets correctly but does not respond (or does not respond correctly) to the controller.| The controller is not connected. | Connect controller.
Bad DMX-line.| Inspect connections and cables. Correct poor connections. Repair or replace damaged cables.
DMX-line has no end resistance.| Insert DMX terminator plug in DMX output socket of last unit on DMX-line.
Incorrect unit addressing. | Check unit address and DMX mode settings.
A unit is defective and is disturbing data transmission on the DMX-line.| Unplug DMX IN and OUT connectors and connect them directly together to bypass one unit at a time until normal operation is regained. Have defective unit serviced by an authorized technician.
Pin 2 and 3 are reversed in XLR connection.| Inspect connections and cables. Install a phase-reversing cable between the units or swap pin 2 and 3 in the unit, that behaves erratically.
Error after unit reset.| Effect requires mechanical adjustment.| Check unit’s software version and error messages for more information. Contact Beamz support or Beamz authorized service partner.
Light output cuts out intermittently.| Unit too hot.| Allow unit to cool. Reduce ambient temperature. Ensure free airflow around unit.
Clean unit if necessary.
LEDs damaged.| Disconnect unit and contact Beamz support or Beamz authorized service partner.
