Safety instructions

Intended use
This device is used to distribute electrical power and DMX signals to several connected loads. Any other use or use under other operating conditions is considered to be improper and may result in personal injury or property damage. No liability will be assumed for damage resulting from improper use.

Safety

DANGER

• Risk of injury and choking hazard for children!
• Children can suffocate on packaging material and small parts. Children can injure themselves when handling the device. Never allow children to play with the packaging material and the device. Always store packaging material out of the reach of babies and small children. Always dispose of packaging material properly when it is not in use. Never allow children to use the device without supervision. Keep small parts away from children and make sure that the device does not shed any small parts (such knobs) that children could play with.

DANGER

• Danger to life due to electric current!
• Within the device, there are areas where high voltages may be present. Never remove any covers. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Do not use the device when covers, safety equipment, or optical components are missing or damaged.

DANGER: Risk of death from electrical current!
A short circuit can cause fires and loss of life. Always use properly insulated, tripe-core mains cable. Do not modify the mains cable. If the insulation is damaged, immediately switch off the power supply and have it repaired. If in doubt, contact a qualified electrician.

NOTICE: Risk of fire due to covered vents and neighboring heat sources!
If the vents of the device are covered or the device is operated near other heat sources, the device can overheat and burst into flames. Never cover the device or the vents. Do not install the device near other heat sources. Never operate the device near naked flames.

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 operation. 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 specifications 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.

• Never exceed the specified maximum load for the stand.

NOTICE

• Potential property damage due to unsuitable stands!
• If the device is mounted on an unsuitable stand, there is a risk that the stand will fall over and cause damage.
• Only use stands whose maximum bearing capacity is at least as high as the weight of the device. Always ensure that the stand is stable.

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.
