Safety instructions
CAUTION! Risk of injury due to unexpected movements of the device! The device
head may perform fast movements and generate very bright light. This is the
case immediately after the device is switched on, in automatic or remote
operation, and when a connected DMX controller is switched off. Persons who
are in the immediate vicinity of the device may be injured or frightened by
this. Make sure that there are no obstacles within the movement range of the
mirror, and that no persons are in the immediate vicinity of the head before
switching it on and during its operation. Switch off the device before any
work is performed in the movement range or immediate vicinity of the device,
or if unauthorised persons are in that area.
NOTICE! Risk of fire due to covered vents and neighbouring heat sources! If
the vents of the device are covered or the device is operated in the immediate
vicinity of other heat sources, the device can overheat and burst into flames.
Never cover the device or the vents. Do not install the device in the
immediate vicinity of other heat sources. Never operate the device in the

NOTICE! Damage to the device if operated in unsuitable ambient conditions! The
device can be damaged if it is operated in unsuitable ambient conditions. Only
operate the device indoors within the ambient conditions specified in the
“Technical specifications” chapter of this user manual. Avoid operating it in
environments with direct sunlight, heavy dirt and strong vibrations. Avoid
operating it in environments with strong temperature fluctuations. If
temperature fluctuations cannot be avoided (for example after transport in low
outside temperatures), do not switch on the device immediately. Never subject
the device to liquids or moisture. Never move the device to another location
while it is in oper- ation. In environments with increased dirt levels (for
example due to dust, smoke, nicotine or mist): Have the device cleaned by
qualified specialists at regular intervals to prevent damage due to
overheating and other malfunctions.
NOTICE! Damage to the device due to high voltages! The device can be damaged
if it is operated with the incorrect voltage or if high voltage peaks occur.
In the worst case, excess voltages can also cause a risk of injury and fires.
Make sure that the voltage specification on the device matches the local power
grid before plugging in the device. Only operate the device from
professionally installed mains sockets that are protected by a residual
current circuit breaker (FI). As a precaution, disconnect the device from the
power grid when storms are approaching or it the device will not be used for a
longer period.
NOTICE! Risk of fire by exceeding the maximum current The device can supply
power to other devices of identical design and connected in series. If too
many devices are connected, the power consumption can exceed the maximum
permitted power consumption, which can cause the device to overheat and burst
into flames. Only connect devices of identical design to the device. When
deciding how many devices you can connect in series, make sure that the
maximum permitted power consumption as stated on the device is not exceeded.
Also refer to the specifica- tions in the technical specifications for the
device. Only use power cords with a cable cross-section designed for the
required current intensity when connecting the devices in series.
NOTICE! Risk of overheating and fire due to inadequate distance and bad
ventilation! If the distance between the light source and the illuminated
surface is too short or the device is badly ventilated, the device can
overheat and cause fires. Make sure that illuminated surfaces are more than 2
m away. Do not operate the device in ambient temperatures above 40 °C. Always
ensure sufficient ventilation at the operating location.
NOTICE! Possible staining due to plasticiser in rubber feet! The plasticiser
contained in the rubber feet of this product may react with the coating of the

Features
3 Features
The LED bar is particularly suitable for professional lighting tasks, for
example at events, on rock stages, in theatres and musicals. It’s
characterized by low power con- sumption and long service life.
Special features of the device:
n 8 separately controllable RGBW LEDs, each 20 W n Extremely sharp beam n
Endless pan rotation n Control via DMX (3 different modes) and via buttons and
display on the unit n Preprogrammed pixel effects n Robust metal housing
For technological reasons, the light output of LEDs decreases over their
lifetime. This effect increases with higher operating temperature. You can
extend the service life of the illuminants by providing adequate ventilation
and operating the LEDs with the lowest possible brightness.

Introduction
This chapter will help you select the right cables and plugs to connect your
valuable equipment so that a perfect light experience is guaranteed.
Please take our tips, because especially in Sound & Light’ caution is indicated: Even if a plug fits into a socket, the result of an incorrect connection may be a destroyed DMX controller, a short circuit or
just’ a not
working light show!

Troubleshooting
10 Troubleshooting
NOTICE! Data transfer errors due to improper wiring! If the DMX connections
are wired incorrectly, this can cause errors during the data transfer.
Do not connect the DMX input and output to audio devices, e.g. mixers or
amplifiers.
Use special DMX cables for the wiring instead of normal microphone cables.
In the following we list a few common problems that may occur during operation. We give you some suggestions for easy troubleshooting:
Symptom
The unit does not work, no light
No response to the DMX con- troller
Remedy
Check the mains connection and the main fuse.
1. Check the DMX connectors and cables for proper connection.
2. Check the address settings and the DMX polarity.
3. Try using another DMX controller.
4. Check whether the DMX cables run near or par- allel to high-voltage cables
that may cause damage or interference to a DMX interface circuit.
If the procedures recommended above do not succeed, please contact our Service Center. You can find the contact information at www.thomann.de.
