Installation via the Omega holders
- Fixed the clamp on the bracket by tighten up the M12 screw on the bracket to the Ф13 hole in the middle of the bracket.
- Insert the quick-lock fasteners of the first Omega holder into the respective holes on the bottom of the device. Tighten the quick-lock fasteners fully clockwise.
- Install the second Omega holder.
- Pull the safety-rope through the holes on the bottom of the base and over the trussing system or a safe fixation spot. Insert the end in the carabine and tighten the safety screw.
Notice : this step is quite important to ensure that the fixture will not drop out by the damage of the clamp.
DMX-512 control connection
Connect the provided XLR cable to the female 3-pin XLR output of your
controller and the other side to the male 3-pin XLR input of the moving head.
You can chain multiple
Moving head together through serial linking. The cable needed should be two
core, screened cable with XLR input and output connectors. Please refer to the
diagram below.
Address 1 Address 3 Address5
DMX-512 connection with DMX terminator
For installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance or is in an
electrically noisy environment, such as in a discotheque, it is recommended to
use a DMX terminator. This helps in preventing corruption of the digital
control signal by electrical noise. The DMX terminator is simply an XLR plug
with a 120 Ω resistor connected between pins 2 and 3,which is then plugged
into the output XLR socket of the last fixture in the chain. Please see
illustrations below.
Projector DMX start address selection
All fixtures should be given a DMX starting address when using a DMX signal,
so that the correct fixture responds to the correct control signals. This
digital starting address is the channel number from which the fixture starts
to “listen” to the digital control information sent out from the DMX
controller. The allocation of this starting address is achieved by setting the
correct number on the display located on the base of the device. You can set
the same starting address for all fixtures or a group of fixtures, or make
different address for each fixture individually.
If you set the same address, all the units will start to “listen” to the same
control signal from the same channel number. In other words, changing the
settings of one channel will affect all the fixtures simultaneously.
If you set a different address, each unit will start to “listen” to the
channel number you have set, based on the quantity of control channels of the
unit. That means changing the settings of one channel will affect only the
selected fixture.
In the case of the move head, which is a 2 channel fixture, you should set the
starting address of the first unit to 1, the second unit to 3 (2 + 1), the
third to 5 (2 + 3), and so on.
Note
The modes of DMX 512 data are shown via the display
After switching on, the device will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data
is received or not. If the data is received, the display will show “A.001”
with the actually set address. If there is no data received at the DMX-input,
the display will flash “A001” with the actually set address.
This situation can occur if
- the 3 PIN XLR plug (cable with DMX signal from controller) is not connected with the input of the device.
- the controller is switched off or defective, if the cable or connector is defective or the signal wires are swap in the input connector.
It’s necessary to insert the XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) in the last lighting in the link in order to ensure proper transmission on the DMX data link.
Control Board
There are four keys on the control panel , which could be used to set the
address, turn ON/OFF, operating the program and reset.

Main Menu Functions
– “MODE” – Function Mode
< ADDR> – DMX address setting – This function is used to set or adjust
the fixture’s starting DMX address. Every device controlled by DMX has to have
a unique starting address. The addressing feature is what allows DMX to
function properly. The DMX address of a fixture is what allows it to
communicate with a controller properly. The DMX addressing also allows the
fixture to ignore any DMX information coming from the controller that is not
meant specifically for the fixture. Because each fixture is connected in a
daisy-chain fashion it is imperative to assign a proper and unique starting
DMX address to each and every fixture. The DMX address is non-destructive and
will remain in the fixture’s memory even when the power to the unit is
switched off. Memory is backed-up and retain by an internal power source that
should last about five years.
“VALU” – Display the DMX 512 value of each channel
With this function you can display the DMX 512 value of each channel. The
display will automatically detail the changing DMX values as they are received
from the controller.
“SLAV” – Slave setting for Master/Slave Operation
With this function, you can define the device as slave for operation in
Master/Slave mode. Each slave setting will have a different function for a
dynamic lightshow without a controller.
“RDMX” – Address via DMX – This function allows the DMX address to
remotely be adjusted from a DMX console. This setting requires special
settings for both the controller and the fixture. RDMX is on by default. For
operational instructions please see Section 9/Page 23 of this manual “Remote
DMX addressing.”
– Internal Program Settings
This function allows the internal programs to run in either stand-alone or
master/salve mode. In “Master” mode the fixture will send DMX data to other
fixtures connect via the DMX chain. In “Alone” mode the fixture will operate
as a single fixture. The program for this mode is selected in the “Select
program” section of the control menu. You can set the number of steps under
“Edit program”. You can edit the individual scenes under “Edit scenes”. With
this function, you can run the individual scenes either automatically, i.e.
with the adjusted Step-Time.
– Menu Display Settings
This function allows the internal programs to run in either stand-alone or
master/salve DMX chain. In “Alone” mode
“VALU” – Display the DMX 512 value of each channel
This function will electronically display the current DMX value for any
channel that is currently being adjusted. The display will automatically
