CONNECTIONS

  • Up to four (4) devices may be connected to each Power Bone device using the Edison outlets located on either side of the Power Bone device.
  • Two (2) USB outlets located on the “Power In” end of the Power Bone can be used to charge or operate low-power devices.
  • When the Power Bone is connected to the power source, the LEDs on the sides will illuminate to indicate that the device is receiving power.
  • If desired, multiple Power Bone devices can be linked together by using the “Power In” and “Power Thru” ports located on the ends of each Power Bone device. Please note that the “Power In” port is located on the end with the USB  ports, while the “Power Thru” port is located by itself on the other end.
  • Use caution when linking multiple Power Bone units. The number of Power Bone units that can be safely linked is dependent upon the individual power requirements of each device that is connected to the Power Bone unit(s).

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

WARNING! DISCONNECT UNIT FROM POWER BEFORE PERFORMING ANY CLEANING OR MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES!
ALWAYS ALLOW THE FIXTURE TO COOL FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES BEFORE PERFORMING ANY CLEANING OR MAINTENANCE!

CLEANING
Frequent cleaning is recommended to ensure proper function and an extended life. The frequency of cleaning depends on the environment in which the device operates: damp, smoky, or particularly dirty environments can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the device’s surfaces. Clean periodically with a soft cloth to avoid dirt/debris accumulation.
NEVER use alcohol, solvents, or ammonia-based cleaners.
MAINTENANCE
Regular inspections are recommended to ensure proper function and extended life. There are no user serviceable parts inside this fixture. Please refer all other service issues to an authorized ADJ service technician. Should you need any  spare parts, please order genuine parts from an authorized ADJ dealer.
Please refer to the following points during routine inspections:

  • A detailed electrical check by an approved electrical engineer every three months, to make sure the circuit contacts are in good condition and prevent overheating.
  • Be sure all screws and fasteners are securely tightened at all times. Loose screws may fall out during normal operation, resulting in damage or injury as larger parts could fall.
  • Check for any deformations on the housing, rigging hardware and rigging points (ceiling, suspension, trussing). Deformations in the housing could allow for dust to enter into the fixture. Damaged rigging points or unsecured rigging  could cause the fixture to fall and seriously injure a person(s).
  • Electric power supply cables must not show any damage, material fatigue or sediments.
