OPERATION

TIPS

• As soon as the spotlight is correctly is connected to the power supply, the following will be displayed in succession: “Welcome to Cameo”, the model name and the software version. After this process, the lamp is ready for operation and starts in the previously enabled mode.
• If one of the DMX modes or slave mode is enabled and there is no control signal at the DMX input, the characters in the display will start to flash.
• If no input is made within approximately 30 seconds, the currently activated mode is automatically shown in the display (main display).

MAIN DISPLAY
The main display shows the currently activated mode (in the example DMX mode with DMX start address 001).

SETUP AND INSTALLATION

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 preinstalled mounting bracket (A) and a suitable crossbeam clamp (available as an accessory). 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). The laterally mounted level screw (C) is used to configure the vertical beam angle. A distance of at least 0.1 meters must be kept between objects or walls located adjacent, above, or behind the spotlight; a distance of at least 0.5 meters must be kept in front of the spotlight in the cone of light.

**** WARNING: Overhead installation requires extensive experience, including the calculation of the load limit values of the installation material and regular safety inspection of all installation materials and spotlights. If you do not have these qualifications, do not attempt to carry out the installation yourself; contact a professional company. There is a risk that incorrectly mounted or secured devices may come loose and fall down. This may lead to serious injury and even fatalities.

INSTALL/REMOVE ACCESSORIES
To install or remove the barn doors and the filter frame, please push the spring-loaded locking pin (D) of the retaining bracket so that it folds upwards. Do not forget afterwards to return the retaining bracket back to the original position so that the locking pins click back into their
locked position.

WARNING:
For safety reasons, the filter frame must always be in the respective retaining bracket on the spotlight, even if no filter is inserted!
WARNING:
Always secure the filter frame, and the barn door if used, to the spotlight using the enclosed safety cable!

CARE AND MAINTENANCE – CLEANING LENSES

The front lens (E) and its rubber frame can be cleaned by flipping the retaining bracket upwards as previously described and then drawing the front lens and its rubber frame as well as the filter frame upwards out of the retention arms. Clean the front lens with a moist, lint-free cloth, making sure not to let moisture into the device and not to scratch the surface of the lens. Do not put the front lens and filter frame back into the support arms until all equipment and accessories are completely dry. Then return the retaining bracket back to its downward
position until the locking pins click into place.

OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
A mounting plate with V-mount adapter and connection cable for an external standard 14.4 or 14.8 volt V-mount battery is optionally available. Article number: CLF1VMOUNTAP

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.
