Important safety instructions! Please read before connection!
-
DANGER! (Electrical shock due to high voltages in the device)
The housing must not be removed! There are no parts to be maintained in the device. Inside the unit there are components which are under high electrical voltage. -
Before each use, check the device for damage or the absence of components, protective devices or housing parts. If this is the case, the device must not be used!
-
Leave maintenance and repair work to a qualified service workshop or contact your dealer. In the case of a malfunction of the device, operation must also be stopped immediately until the device has been repaired by a specialist!
-
DANGER! (Electric shock due to short circuit)
Modifications to the power cord or plug are prohibited. If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced immediately with an original spare part from the manufacturer. Failure to do so may result in fire or death due to electric shock! -
DANGER! (For babies and children)
Dispose of or store any packaging material properly! Packaging material must be kept out of the reach of babies and children due to the risk of suffocation.
Ensure that children never use the appliance unattended! In addition, make sure that children do not remove (small) parts from the device, as they could suffocate by swallowing parts! -
WARNING! (High light intensity – eye injuries)
A direct view into the light source is absolutely to be omitted! -
WARNING! (Epilepsy)
Stroboscopic effects (flashes of light) can trigger seizures of epilepsy in some people. Accordingly sensitive people should be warned and should not be in the vicinity of such devices. -
Hint! (Fire hazard due to overheating)
The maximum permissible ambient temperature of this device is 40°C.
Ensure that the unit is placed in a well-ventilated location away from direct heat sources, naked flames, combustible materials, and liquids. A minimum distance of 1 m is required.
Do not tape or cover the ventilation slots of the unit. -
Hint! (Operating conditions)
Due to its structural characteristics, the device is designed for indoor operation (IP20). Never expose the device to rain, moisture or liquids as this may cause damage.
Vibrations, dust or sunlight can also cause damage, avoid them! -
Hint! (Power supply)
It is essential that you check that the device voltage matches your local mains voltage. It is highly recommended that you fuse your mains socket with a residual current circuit breaker (FI).
If you do not use your device for a longer period of time or carry out maintenance work, disconnect the device from the mains in order to minimize danger. The same applies to storm conditions such as thunderstorms, floods, etc. -
Hint! (Error during data transmission)
Never connect the DMX input or output to audio devices such as power amplifiers or mixing consoles!
DMX cables enable trouble-free operation and the highest possible transmission reliability of signal data. Do not use microphone cables! -
Hint! (Condensation)
To avoid condensation in the unit, the unit should adapt to the ambient temperature before commissioning. -
Hint! (Unwanted odours)
A new product can sometimes lead to unwanted odours. This reaction is normal and disappears after a few minutes.

Intended use
The LightmaXX Nano Truss Light Mobile MKII was designed for use as an
electronic LED lighting effect. The device may only be used for this purpose
and in accordance with the operating instructions. Other purposes as well as
operation under other operating conditions are expressly not intended and can
lead to damage to property or personal injury! No liability is assumed for
damage resulting from improper use.
It must be ensured that the device is operated exclusively by trained and
competent users who are in full possession of their mental, physical and
sensory abilities. The use of other persons is expressly only permitted at the
request of a person responsible for their safety, who instructs or supervises
the use.
All connections of the device should be made before switching on. Only use
high-quality cables that are as short as possible for the connections.
Operation
The device can be powered by mains voltage and the built-in rechargeable battery.
-
Mains operation
Connect the device to the mains and wait a few seconds until it is ready for operation. The Power Out socket on the back of the device can be used to power another device. To do this, connect the output to the mains connection of the next device. -
Battery operation
- Before the device can be operated for the first time, the built-in battery must be fully charged. Switch the unit on with the charger switch and connect the unit to an electrical outlet using the supplied power cable.
- The battery life depends strongly on the operating mode and the brightness of the LEDs. The battery life is at least 5 hours if all LEDs light up after complete charging, up to 15 hours in automatic and single colour mode.
- When the battery is fully charged, all four LEDs on the back of the unit will turn green. The charging time is 6 to 8 hours.
- The charge level is indicated by green and red LEDs on the back of the unit. If all four LEDs are green, the battery is fully charged. If only one green LED lights up, the battery will soon be exhausted and must be recharged. The device can still be operated for a few minutes in this state. It then switches off automatically due to the protection circuit against deep discharge.
Menu
Navigation in the menu is via the four menu buttons below the display. Use the “Menu” button to activate the menu, navigate via the “Up” and “Down” buttons. A corresponding selection is confirmed with the “Enter” key. The corresponding menu item can be exited by pressing the “Menu” key.

Static, Auto or Sound mode:
The device contains automatic programs that run according to fixed schemes
(Auto) or are recalled via the built-in microphone to match the music (Sound).
The selection of the respective mode takes place via the menu directly on the
device.
If you connect several devices of the same type via DMX, they can be
controlled simultaneously via the master device. To do this, set the desired
function “Master” on the first device of the line, the other devices of the
series must now be set as “Slave”. Now the first device of the line gives the
function to all other devices and all devices run simultaneously.
Remote control mode:
The device can be managed remotely using the remote control included in the
scope of delivery. The respective functions can be performed using the various
program selection or color keys.
Operating mode DMX
Connect the DMX input of your device to the DMX output of your DMX conntr
troller, your DMX software or the DMX output of a device already in your DMX
line. Always us use a se a DMX cable with a 110 Ohm resistor for this
connection. Address the device according to youur Dr DMX configuration. The
following table shows the respective DMX modes of the individual devvi ce ices
with the corresponding values and functions:
For ideal operation in a DMX chain, it is recommended to use a terminatin ngg
resistor at the end of each DMX chain. The terminating resistor is usually
soldered with 120Ω beetwe tween – Data and + Data to prevent signal
reflections.
