The electric connection must carry out by qualified person.
Make sure the power cord is never crimped or damaged by sharp edges. If this would be the case, replacement of the cable must be done by an authorized dealer.
Always disconnect from the mains, when the device is not in use or before cleaning it. Only handle the power cord by the plug. Never pull out the plug by tugging the power cord.
During initial start-up some smoke or smell may arise. This is a normal process and does not necessarily mean that the device is defective, it should decrease gradually.
Please don’t project the beam onto combustible substances.
If the external flexible cable or cord of this luminaire is damaged, it shall be exclusively replaced by the manufacturer or his service agent or a similar qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

CAUTION!
Never touch the device during operation!

In order to make the lights in good condition and extend the life time, we suggest a regular cleaning to the lights.

Clean the inside and outside lens each week to avoid the weakness of the lights due to accumulation of dust.
Clean the fan each week.
A detailed electric check by approved electrical engineer each three month, make sure that the circuit contacts are in good condition, prevent the poor contact of circuit from overheating.

We recommend a frequent cleaning of the device. Please use a moist, lint-free cloth. Never use alcohol or solvents.

MOUNTING AND INSTALLATION

Cautions:

For added protection mount the fixtures in areas outside walking paths, seating areas, or in areas were the fixture might be reached by unauthorized personnel.
Before mounting the fixture to any surface, make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10 times the device’s weight.
Fixture installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, such as an appropriate safety cable.
Never stand directly below the device when mounting, removing, or servicing the fixture from a periodic safety inspection of all installation material and the fixture. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself. Improper installation can result in bodily injury.
Be sure to complete all rigging and installation procedures before connecting the main power cord to the appropriate wall outlet.
Clamp Mounting: The B-Eye provides a unique mounting bracket assembly that integrates the bottom of the base, the included “Omega Bracket,” and the safety cable rigging point in one unit (see the illustration below). When mounting this fixture to truss be sure to secure an appropriately rated clamp to the included omega bracket using a M10 screw fitted through the center hole of the “omega bracket”. As an added safety measure be sure to attached at least one properly rated safety cable to the fixture using on of the safety cable rigging point integrated in the base assembly

Regardless of the rigging option you choose for your B-Eye, always be sure to secure your fixture with a safety cable. The fixture provides a built-in rigging point for a safety cable on the hanging bracket as illustrated above. Be sure to only use the designated rigging point for the safety cable and never secure a safety cable to a carrying handle.

DMX-512 CONTROL CONNECTIONS

Connect the provided XLR cable to the female 3-pin XLR output of your controller and the other side to the male 3-pin XLR input of the moving head. You can chain multiple Moving heads be connected together through serial linking. The cable needed should be two core, screened cable with XLR input and output connectors. Please refer to the diagram below.
DMX-512 connection with DMX terminator:

For installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance or is in an electrically noisy environment, such as in a discotheque, it is recommended to use a DMX terminator. This helps in preventing corruption of the digital control signal by electrical noise. The DMX terminator is simply an XLR plug with a 120 Ω resistor connected between pins 2 and 3,which is then plugged into the output XLR socket of the last fixture in the chain. Please see illustrations below.

SHAPE MODE DESCRIPTION

CONCEPTS: FOREGROUND AND BACKGROUND
The powerful shapes engine allows the user to set all the possible parameters relating to the pixels of the light in an organic way, with a distinction between the pixels affected by a selected “image” and the ones that are not affected by that specific image (more properly called SHAPE from now on).
The macro called “ring 2″ will, as an example, involve all the pixels that compose the ring of the unit, while the middle pixel and the 1 smaller ring will not be affected by the shape. The involved pixels will belong to the”Foreground” layer, while all the remaining pixels will belong to the “Background” layer.
Pixels on the foreground take the colour the user will select specifically for them using the dedicated channels, while the remaining pixels will all maintain the colours related to the washlight.

SHAPE PARAMETERS DESCRIPTION

SHAPE SELECTION| Allows to choose the kind of shape to be visualized amongst the 63 available ones. Each shape can be composed of a multitude of frames or be a single, static image.
---|---
SHAPE SPEED| Allows to set the speed at which the different frames of the selected shape are played by the unit.
SHAPE FADE| In case of shapes with multiple frames, it allows to select a snap or faded variation from frame to frame of the same shape.
SHAPE RGBW| Allows to select the colour of the pixels composing the selected shape, if all are left at 000 no shape will be visualized (unless the background dimmer and normal RGBW attributes of the unit are given a value, in which case a “negative” of the macro will be shown)
SHAPE DIMMER| Allows to select the overall brightness of the pixels involved in the selected shape.
BACKGROUND DIMMER| Allows to select the overall brightness of the pixels NOT involved by the selected shape.

The relevant colour is set using the normal RGBW channels of the washlight.

SHAPE TRANSITION| Internal fade time between a shape and another one set via DMX. Using this “channel” when you change from a shape to a different one as if it was the console fade time will avoid the scrolling effect normally visible when having fades between eg. gobo changes is traditional lights. Fade time on the console should be set to 0.
SHAPE OFFSET| Depending on the selected shape the channel sets the “density” of the involved pixels (few random pixel, many random pixels) or enables an internal algorithm that will distribute the macro between a multitude of lights on a specific DMX line basing on their DMX starting address.
FOREGROUND STROBE| Allows to set a strobe rate for the pixels involved in a macro.
BACKGROUND STROBE| Allows to set a strobe rate for the pixels NOT involved in a macro.
BACKGROUND SELECT| Allows to reduce, if needed, the background to a lower amount of “rings”. With selected macros this allows to mirror the image between the two halves of the fixture’s head (in this case the RGBW channels of the washlight will set the colour of the mirrored half and the background will remain black.

Note of Foreground Shape Effect:

Shapes will be available while (Dimmer CH12),(Strobe CH11), (Shape dimmer CH29), (Foreground strobe CH33),(Shape color CH25/26/27/28) turned on then selecting the Shapes on (Shape Selection CH22) with different speed on (Shape Speed CH23).
Background Effect: Meanwhile the (BG dimmer CH30), (BG strobe CH34), (Color RGBW CH1/3/5/7) turned on.
(CH value mentioned above is based on SHAPE MODE L10Rotation)
Vortex effect: With Shape slot 3(Ring 2 on Shape Selection Value 10) and Zoom rotation turned on.
