Please note that this device must not be connected to a dimmer.

Mounting options

The quick lock openings on the housing bottom are used for secure attachment of Omega brackets. These are used to attach the flight adapters (half coupler, trigger
clamps, C-hooks etc.). The safety cable must be threaded through the cut-outs on the bottom or the carrying handles.

Starting up

Establish all connections as long as the unit is switched off. Use the shortest possible high-quality cables for all connections.

Connections in DMX mode

Connect the DMX input of the device to the DMX output of a DMX controller or another DMX device. Connect the output of the first DMX device to the input of the second one, and so on to form a daisy chain. Always ensure that the output of the last DMX device in the daisy chain is terminated with a resistor (110 Ω, ¼ W).

Plug and pin assignments

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!

DMX connections

The unit offers a 3-pin XLR socket for DMX output and a 3-pin XLR plug for DMX input. Please refer to the drawing and table below for the pin assignment of a suit‐ able XLR plug.

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:

connection and the main fuse.
No response to the DMX con‐ troller| 1. The DMX indicator should light up. If it doesn’t, check DMX connectors and cables for proper con‐ nection.
2. If the DMX indicator lights up but with no response, check the address settings and DMX polarity.
3. Try using another DMX controller.
4. Check whether the DMX cables lie near or adja‐ cent to high voltage cables, which could cause damage or interference with a DMX interface cir‐ cuit.

If the procedures recommended above do not succeed, please contact our Service Center. You can find the contact information at www.thomann.de.
