FOR EQUIPMENT THAT CONNECTS TO THE POWER MAINS:
CAUTION: If the power cord of the device 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.
If the equipment has been exposed to strong fluctuations in temperature (for example, after transport), do not switch it on immediately. Moisture and condensation could damage the equipment. Do not switch on the equipment until it has reached room temperature.
Before connecting the equipment to the power outlet, first verify that the mains voltage and frequency match the values specified on the equipment. If the equipment has a voltage selection switch, connect the equipment to the power outlet only if the equipment values and the mains power values match. If the included power cord or power adapter does not fit in your wall outlet, contact your electrician.
Do not step on the power cord. Make certain that the power cable does not become kinked, especially at the mains outlet and/or power adapter and the equipment connector.
When connecting the equipment, make certain that the power cord or power adapter is always freely accessible. Always disconnect the equipment from the power supply if the equipment is not in use or if you want to clean the equipment. Always unplug the power cord andpower adapter from the power outlet at the plug or adapter and not by pulling on the cord. Never touch the power cord and power adapter with wet hands.
Whenever possible, avoid switching the equipment on and off in quick succession because otherwise this can shorten the useful life of the equipment.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Replace fuses only with fuses of the same type and rating. If a fuse blows repeatedly, please contact an authorised service centre.
To disconnect the equipment from the power mains completely, unplug the power cord or power adapter from the power outlet.
If your device is equipped with a Volex power connector, the mating Volex equipment connector must be unlocked before it can be removed.However, this also means that the equipment can slide and fall down if the power cable is pulled, which can lead to personal injuries and/or other damage. For this reason, always be careful when laying cables.
Unplug the power cord and power adapter from the power outlet if there is a risk of a lightning strike or before extended periods of disuse.
The device must only be installed in a voltage-free condition (disconnect the mains plug from the mains).
Dust and other debris inside the unit may cause damage. The unit should be regularly serviced or cleaned (no guarantee) depending on ambient conditions (dust etc., nicotine, fog) by qualified personnel to prevent overheating and malfunction.
Please keep a distance of at least 0.5 m to any combustible materials.
Power cables to power multiple devices must have a cross-section of at least 1.5 mm². Within the EU, the cables must correspond to H05VV-F, or similar. Suitable cables are offered by Adam Hall. With these cables, you can connect multiple devices via the power OUT connection to the power IN connection of an additional device. Make sure that the total current consumption of all connected devices does not exceed the specified value on all connected devices (label on the device). Make sure to keep power cable connections as short as possible.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove cover (or back). There are no user serviceable parts inside. Maintenance and repairs should be exclusively carried out by qualified service personnel.

The warning triangle with lightning symbol indicates dangerous uninsulated voltage inside the unit, which may cause an electrical shock.
The warning triangle with exclamation mark indicates important operating and maintenance instructions.
The housing surface of the spotlight can heat up to temperatures as high as 70 °C in regular use. Ensure that it is not possible to come into contact with the housing unintentionally. Always allow sufficient time for the lamp to cool down before
dismantling, carrying out maintenance work or charging etc.
Warning! This device is designed for use below 2000 metres in altitude.
Warning! This product is not intended for use in tropical climates.

INTRODUCTION

Wireless lighting control with iOS and Android devices is right at your fingertips with the iDMX® CORE WiFi and W-DMX™ box. The battery- operated device has been specifically designed to work with the iDMX® controller app from Cameo. It contains a W-DMX™ transmitterwith a range of up to 300 m, working in the 2.4 GHz range. 3 and 5-pin DMX inputs and outputs enable use with DMX lighting consoles and wireless control of conventional DMX spotlights via WiFi. The powerful internal lithium-ion battery from LG lasts for up to 8 hours. Operating time of the iDMX® CORE can be extended as required with external power banks. An integrated battery management system protects the battery against overcharging and deep discharge and ensures long battery life. Mains adapter/charger with USB cable, 2 x DMX Y-cables and a soft carrying case are supplied.

CONNECTIONS, OPERATING AND DISPLAY ELEMENTS $cameo-iDMX-CORE-WiFi-To-W-Dmx- Converter-Clidmxcore-FIG-1 $1$$

INPUT
Micro-USB socket for charging the internal battery (charging voltage 5V DC/1.6A, power supply, and USB cable included) and connecting a power bank (external 5V battery pack). If the internal battery is charging, the battery charge status LED flashes approximately every 2 seconds. When the battery is fully charged, the flashing stops, and the green LED remains constantly lit.
ON/OFF BUTTON
Press and hold the button for approximately 3 seconds to turn the device on or off.
MULTI-FUNCTION BUTTON
W-DMX: To pair with a W-DMX receiver or W-DMX-compatible spotlights, activate W-DMX on the receiver and reset the receiver module (follow instructions for the W-DMX receiver). Press and hold the W-DMX button on the iDMX CORE transmitter for about 3 seconds to automatically pair with the W-DMX receiver. Repeat the procedure to pair the iDMX CORE with other previously paired W-DMX receivers. The connection to the already paired devices remains unaffected. Conversion of the signal source: To convert the signal source from WiFi to DMX and vice versa, press the button 2 times in quick succession (double click). The blue or red indicator LED displays which of the two signal sources is enabled.
DISPLAY LEDs
Dual LED (green/red): indicates the charge status of the battery. If the battery is charging, the LED flashes approximately every 2 seconds. When the battery is fully charged, the flashing stops, and the green LED remains constantly lit. If the battery charge status is between 50% and 100%, the LED lights up green. If the battery charge status is between 20% and 50%, the LED lights up orange, and if it is less than 20%, it lights up red. Connect the charger or a power bank immediately. Blue LED: indicates WiFi status. If WiFi is selected as the signal source and data is being transferred from the iDMX controller app, the LED lights up constantly. If the LED flashes about every 2 seconds, no data is being transferred from the iDMX app via WiFi. After turning on the device, the blue LED flashes for a short time at a frequency of about 3 Hz (rapid flashing), indicating that the WiFi parameters are being initialized. Red LED: indicates DMX status. If DMX is selected as the signal source and there is a DMX signal, the LED lights up constantly. If the LED flashes approximately every 2 seconds, there is no DMX signal. After turning on the device, the red LED flashes for a short time at a frequency of about 3 Hz (rapid flashing), indicating that the network parameters are being initialized. Orange LED: indicates W-DMX status. After the pairing process with a W-DMX-compatible receiver has been started (see point 3), the orange LED flashes for 5 seconds at a frequency of about 3 Hz. After 5 seconds, the LED lights up constantly. When unpairing a W-DMX receiver, the LED flashes once per second (unpairing via the iDMX® controller app).
DMX I/O
Connection socket for a DMX IN/OUT Y-adapter cable (1 x 3-pin version and 1 x 5-pin version included).
WIFI AND W-DMX ANTENNAS
Removable screw-in antennas for sending and receiving W-DMX and WiFi signals.

FACTORY RESET: To reset the device to factory settings, press and hold buttons #2 and #3 simultaneously for about 10 seconds.
PLEASE NOTE:
When operating the iDMX CORE WiFi to W-DMX converter in the vicinity of a 2.4 GHz WLAN network, interference may occur on the WLAN network. In the event of this happening, move to a 5 GHz WLAN network if possible. The Cameo iDMX® controller app is available for iOS and Android devices and can be downloaded free of charge from the product page for the device at WWW.CAMEOLIGHT.COM.
