Battery Precautions

Handling of Batteries

Do not short-circuit the Battery
Try to never short circuit the battery. It generates a very high current which could cause the battery to overheat which may result in electrolyte gel leakage, harmful fumes, or explosion. The LIR tabs may easily short-circuit by placing them on con-ductive surface. A short circuit may lead to heat build-up and damage of the battery. An appropriate circuitry with PCM is employed to protect accidental short circuits of the battery pack.

Mechanical shock
Dropping the unit, impact hit, bending, etc. may cause failure or shorten the life of the LIR battery.

Other

Battery connection

1. Direct soldering of wire leads or devices to the battery is strictly prohibited.
2. Lead tabs with pre-soldered wiring shall be spot-welded to the batteries. Direct soldering may cause damage of components, such as separators and insulators, by heat buildup.

Prevention of short circuits within a battery pack
There is enough insulation layers between the wiring and the batteries to provide extra safety protection. The battery pack is constructed in a way that no short circuit will occur which may cause smoke or fire.

Do not disassemble the Batteries

1. Never disassemble the batteries. Doing this may cause an internal short circuit in the battery, which may lead to harmful fumes, fire, explosion, or other problems.
2. Electrolyte Gel is harmful Electrolyte Gel should not leak from the LIR battery. Should the electrolyte gel come into contact with the skin or eyes, flush the area of contact immediately with fresh water and seek medical attention immediately.

Do Not Expose the Battery to Heat or Fire Never incinerate or dispose of the batteries in a fire. This may cause an explosion, which would be very dangerous.

Do Not Expose the Battery to water or liquids
Never soak/drop the batteries in liquids such as water, seawater, drinks such as soft drinks, juices, coffee, or others.

Battery Replacement
For battery replacement please contact American DJ customer support 800-322-6337.

Do Not use a damaged Battery
The battery could be damaged during shipping, caused by shock. Should the battery be found damaged, including damages to the plastic casing of the battery, deformation of the battery package, smelling of an electrolyte, leakage of the electrolyte gel, or other, DO NOT use the battery. A battery with an odor of electrolyte or a gel leakage should be placed away from the fire to avoid fire or explosion.

Battery Storage
When storing the battery, it should be stored at room temperature, with a charge of at least 50%. We recommend that during long periods of storage, the battery be charged every 6 months. Doing this will prolong the life of the battery and will also make sure that the battery charge does not fall below the 30% mark.

Other Chemical Reaction
Because batteries utilize a chemical reaction, battery performance will deteriorate over time even if stored for a long period without being used. In addition, if the various usage conditions such as charge, discharge, ambient temperature, etc. are not maintained within the specified ranges, the life expectancy of the battery may be shortened or the device in which the battery is used may be damaged by electrolyte gel leakage. If the batteries cannot maintain a charge for long periods, even when they are charged correctly, this may indicate it is time to change the battery.

Battery Disposal
Please dispose of the battery according to local regulations.

DMX Set Up

Power Supply: The ADJ Mega GO Par64 PLUS contains an automatic voltage switch, which will auto-sense the voltage when it is plugged into the power source. With this switch there is no need to worry about the correct power voltage, this unit can be plugged in anywhere.

DMX-512 : DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal protocol used as a form of communication between intelligent fixtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions from the controller to the fixture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from fixture to fixture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA “OUT” terminal).

DMX Linking: DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of different manufacturers to be linked together and operate from a single controller, as long as all fixtures and the controller are DMX compliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. The order in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle. When a fixture is assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to address 1 to that unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.

Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX Operation)

The Mega GO Par64 PLUS can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The Mega GO Par64 PLUS has 5 DMX modes, please see pages 12-13 for the different modes. The DMX address is set on the back panel of the Mega GO Par64 PLUS. Your unit and your DMX controller require a standard 3-pin XLR connector for data input and data output (Figure 1). We recommend Accu-Cable DMX cables. If you are making your cables, be sure to use standard 110-120 Ohm shielded cable (This cable may be purchased at almost all pro lighting stores). Your cables should be made with a male and female XLR connector on either end of the cable. Also, remember that DMX cable must be daisy-chained and cannot be split.

Notice: Be sure to follow figures two and three when making your own cables. Do not use the ground lug on the XLR connector. Do not connect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behavior.

Special Note : Line Termination. When longer runs of cable are used, you may need to use a terminator on the last unit to avoid erratic behavior. A terminator is a 110-120 ohm 1/4 watt resistor which is connected between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector (DATA + and DATA -). This unit is inserted in the female XLR connector of the last unit in your daisy chain to terminate the line. Using a cable terminator (ADJ part number Z-DMX/T) will decrease the possibility of erratic behavior.

5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors. Some manufacturers use 5-pin DMX- 512 data cables for DATA transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin DMX fixtures may be implemented in a 3-pin DMX line. When inserting standard 5-pin data cables in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used, these adaptors are readily available at most electric stores. The chart below details a proper cable conversion.

3-Pin XLR to 5-Pin XLR Conversion

Conductor| 3-Pin XLR Female (Out)| 5-Pin XLR Male (In)
Ground/Shield| Pin 1| Pin 1
Data Compliment (- signal)| Pin 2| Pin 2

Battery Status & Recharge

Battery Status:
This function is used to check the life status of the battery. Plug the fixture in and press the MODE button until “bXXX” is displayed. “XXX” represents an number between “000” and “100”. The number that is displayed is the remaining battery life. If “b—” is displayed, it means the battery is dead or you are running the unit on AC power. Please do not let the battery fully die, this severly shortens the life of the battery.

Example: If “b050” is displayed, the battery is at half life. If “b025” is displayed, the battery is at 25% life.

NOTE: When the battery is charging or if the battery life is below 30% the digital display will flash.

NOTE: After 20 seconds of inactivity, the display will revert back to the battery life display.

Battery Recharge : To recharge the battery, plug the supplied AC cord into the AC input on the side of the unit and plug the other end into a matching power supply. It takes about 4 hours to reach full charge. The display will STOP flashing when the unit reaches 100% charge.

Note: When unplugging the unit from charging and then applying power via battery, there will be a minimal charge drop. For a faster recharge, put the Load Switch in the “Off” position and the Battery Switch in the “ON” position.

Power Cord Daisy Chain

With this feature you can connect the fixtures using the IEC input and output sockets. The quantity that can be connected is 25 fixtures maximum. After 25 fixtures you will need to use a new power outlet. They must be the same fixtures. DO NOT mix fixtures.

Fuse Replacement

Disconnect the unit from its power source. Remove the power cord from the unit. Once the cord has been removed, you will find that the fuse holder is located inside the power socket. Insert a flat-head screw driver into the power socket and gently pry out the fuse holder. Remove the bad fuse and replace it with a new one. The fuse holder also has a holder for a spare fuse.

Trouble Shooting

Listed below are a few common problems the user may encounter, with solutions.

Unit not responding to DMX

1. Check that the DMX cables are connected properly and are wired correctly (pin 3 is “hot”; on some other DMX devices pin 2 may be ‘hot’). Also, check that all cables are connected to the right connectors; it does matter which way the inputs and outputs are connected.

The unit does not respond to sound

1. Quiet or high-pitched sounds will not activate the unit.
2. Make sure that Sound Active mode is activated.

Cleaning
Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the internal and external optical lenses must be carried out periodically to optimize light output.

1. Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the outside casing.
2. Clean the external optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth every 20 days.
3. Always be sure to dry all parts completely before plugging the unit back in. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates (i.e. smoke, fog residue, dust, dew).
