INSTALLATION
WARNING! Risk of injury caused by falling objects
Devices in overhead installations may cause severe injuries when crashing
down. Make sure that the device is installed securely and cannot fall down.
The installation must be carried out by a specialist who is familiar with the
hazards and the relevant regulations.
The device may be placed on the floor or fastened to a truss or similar rigging structure. The device must never be fixed swinging freely in the room.
- The rigging structure must support at least 10 times the weight of all fixtures to be installed on it.
- Block access below the work area and work from a stable platform when installing the device.
- Use rigging hardware that is compatible with the structure and capable of bearing the weight of the device. Please refer to the “Accessories” section for a list of suitable rigging hardware.
- Secure the device with a safety bond or other secondary attachment. This secondary safety attachment must be sufficiently dimensioned in accordance with the latest industrial safety regulations and constructed in a way that no part of the installation can fall down if the main attachment fails. An appropriate eyelet is mounted on the device for fixation of the safety bond. Fasten the safety bond in such a way that, in the event of a fall, the maximum drop distance of the device will not exceed 20 cm.
- To align the device, release the fixation levers at the mounting bracket, adjust the desired inclination angle and tighten the fixation levers.
- After installation, the device requires inspections periodically to prevent the possibility of corrosion, deformation and looseness.
DMX512 CONNECTION
A DMX512 data link is required in
order to control the device via DMX. The device provides 3-pin XLR connectors
for DMX connection.
- Connect the output of your DMX controller to the DMX input DMX IN of the device with a DMX cable.
- Connect the DMX output DMX OUT of the device to the DMX input of the next unit in the chain. Always connect one output to the input of the next unit until all units are connected.
- At the last unit, the DMX cable has to be terminated. Plug the terminator with a 120 Ω resistor between Signal (–) and Signal (+) in the DMX output of the last unit.
- If the cable length exceeds 300 m or the number of DMX devices is greater than 32, it is recommended to insert a DMX level amplifier to ensure proper data transmission.
XLR connections:
 Wireless
DMX transmission with QuickDMX
The device features an alternative DMX input for a QuickDMX receiver (sold separately). CRMX and WDMX receivers are compatible and can also be used. The connector allows a DMX control signal to be transmitted wirelessly to the device, eliminating the need for complex wiring to the DMX controller. The connector is designed as a USB port which provides the required 5 V operating voltage for the receiver.
Occupation of the USB port:
Connection to the mains
The device uses an auto-range power supply that accepts input voltages between
100 and 240 volts.
- Connect the device via the enclosed mains cable to a grounded mains socket. Thus the unit is switched on.
- To switch off the unit, disconnect the power plug.
- Do not connect the unit to the mains voltage via a dimmer. For a more convenient operation, use a mains outlet which is switchable.
OPERATION
After connecting the device to the mains it is ready for operation. The
display indicates the last operating mode. The operating modes can be selected
by means of the display and the control buttons. All settings remain stored
even if the device is disconnected from the mains. The device can be operated
in stand-alone mode via the control board or in DMX-controlled mode via any
commercial DMX controller as well as wireless via QuickDMX with the optionally
available EUROLITE QuickDMX USB Wireless Transmitter/Receiver.
After you connected the effect to the mains, the LED CAT-80 Beam Effect starts
running. During the Reset, the motors are trimmed and the device is ready for
use afterwards.
The main menu is accessed by pressing the MENU button. Browse through the menu
by pressing the MENU button. Press the ENTER button in order to select the
desired menu. You can change the selection by pressing UP or DOWN. Confirm
every selection by pressing the ENTER button. The functions provided are

Master/slave operation
Several devices may be interconnected (max. 32). Then all slave units can be
synchronized and controlled with the master unit without the need for a DMX
controller. The devices must be set to the corresponding operating modes.
- Configure all slave units before connecting the master unit. For this, set each slave device to the DMX address 001 and confirm with ENTER.
- Connect the DMX output of the master unit to the DMX input of the first slave unit. Then connect the DMX output of the first slave unit to the DMX input of the second slave unit, etc. until all units have been connected in a chain. Make sure the master unit is the first in the chain. Do not connect a DMX controller to the DMX input of the master unit.
- Select the desired show mode (Sound or Auto) at the master unit. The interconnected devices will now operate synchronously.
DMX operation
To be able to operate the device in DMX mode, it must first be set to DMX
under the Mode Choice menu item (see Menu structure).
Setting the DMX starting address
For operation with a controller with DMX512 protocol, the device is equipped
with 7 control channels. To be able to operate the device with a DMX
controller, the DMX starting address must be set. The starting address depends
upon which DMX controller is being used. Please refer to the controller’s
documentation.
- Press the UP or DOWN button so many times until DMX Address is indicated on the display. Confirm with the ENTER button.
- Now the display calls up the menu item for the DMX starting address: 001.
- Use the buttons UP and DOWN to set the address. Confirm with the ENTER button.
- The display will not flash if DMX signals are being received.
Note: Please make sure that you do not have any overlapping channels in order to control each device correctly and independently from any other fixture on the DMX chain. If several devices are addressed to the same address, they will work synchronously.
