you are using a standard DMX controller, you can connect the DMX output of the controller directly to the DMX input of the first fixture in a DMX chain. Always connect the output of one unit with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are connected.

DMX512 CONTROL

If you are using a standard DMX controller, you can connect the DMX output of the controller directly to the DMX input of the first fixture in a DMX chain. Always connect the output of one unit with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are connected.

Caution : At the last fixture, you must close the DMX line with a terminating resistor. Take an XLR connector and solder a 120 Ohm resistor between signal (-) and signal (+) and connect it to the DMX output of the last fixture in the line.

ROM CONTROL

The BTS250C can communicate using RDM (Remote Device Management) via DMX512. RDM is a bi-directional communication protocol for use in DMX512
control systems, it is the open standard for DMX512 configuration and status monitoring.

The RDM protocol allows data packets to be inserted into a DMX512 line without affecting the existing non-RDM equipment. The system allows a controller or special RDM controller to send and receive commands from specific fixtures. The RDM function allows you, for example to remotely set the DMX start address of your fixtures. This is especially useful when the fixture is installed in an inaccessible location. Each BTS250C has an RDM UID (unique identification number).

Caution : Before using the fixture, enable the RDM function via “Advanced settings” in the menu. See below picture.

Step 1 : Open the fuse holder on the rear panel with a fitting screwdriver.
Step 2 : Remove the old fuse from the fuse holder.
Step 3 : Install the new fuse in the fuse holder.
Step 4: Replace the fuse holder in the housing.

CLEANING

The buildup of dust, dirt and other airborne particles will reduce the fixture’s light output. It will also prevent the fixture from cooling correctly, and this will reduce the fixture’s lifetime. The rate of dirt buildup will vary depending on environmental factors such as airborne dust, use of smoke machines, airflow from ventilation systems, etc. The fixture’s cooling fans will accelerate buildup, and any smoke particles that are present in the atmosphere will increase the tendency for dirt to clog.
To get the best performance and lifetime from the fixture, inspect it regularly and clean it as soon as you see signs of dirt buildup. Assess the operating environment each time you begin to use the fixture. In dusty or smoky conditions, inspect the fixture after a few hours and check it frequently the fixture may attract dirt faster than you expect. Draw up a cleaning schedule that will make sure that dirt is removed before it can build up.

Use the following guidelines:

• Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
• Do not use solvents, abrasives or any other aggressive product to clean the fixture.
• Vacuum or use low-pressure compressed air to remove dust and loose particles from surfaces and air vents. Prevent the blades of cooling fans from turning before you aim a vacuum or air jet at the fan, or you may spin the fan too fast and damage it.
• Clean glass components by wiping gently with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth moistened with a weak detergent solution. Put the solution on the cloth and not on the surface to be cleaned. Avoid rubbing glass surfaces.
• Dry the fixture with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth or low-pressure compressed air before reapplying power.
