Product Usage Instructions

Installation
To install the COAST DMX 512 E:PIX ANSI 3G IK09, follow these steps:

  1. Choose the appropriate length option based on your requirements (296mm/1ft or 1196mm/4ft).
  2. Ensure the mounting surface is suitable for installation and can support the weight of the luminaire.
  3. Connect the luminaires using the quick lock connectors in a daisy chain configuration.
  4. If using auto-addressing, the luminaires will automatically assign addresses in the daisy chain. If using manual addressing, use the TX Addresser to assign addresses.
  5. Mount the luminaires using the fixed, non-adjustable mounting brackets.

Operation
To operate the COAST DMX 512 E:PIX ANSI 3G IK09, follow these steps:

  1. Ensure the luminaires are connected to the appropriate power supply.
  2. Use the DMX512 or e:pix control system to control the lighting effects.
  3. Adjust the pixel control to customize the lighting configuration from 33mm/1.3 to the full length of the luminaire.

Maintenance
To maintain the COAST DMX 512 E:PIX ANSI 3G IK09, follow these guidelines:

  • Regularly clean the luminaires using a soft, non-abrasive cloth to remove dust and dirt.
  • Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents that may damage the housing or cover lens.
  • Inspect the luminaires for any signs of damage or wear, and replace any faulty components as needed.

LED CHARACTERISTICS Because LEDs are semiconductor devices, their performances are subject to inherent variability commonly found in semiconductor industry. To improve consistency in performance across the same product, LED manufacturers “sort” LEDs into bins according to different preset parameters, such as forward driving voltage, illumination, etc. Whereas binning is a sorting function, it is not a correction process. Inherent variability in the manufacturing process results always in different binning distributions according to different production lots. Traxon uses automatically binned LEDs on its products, thereby minimizing output variations within the model range.

As with all electronic devices, LED output degrades over time – a term called lumen depreciation. This also explains why it is nearly impossible to expect photometric performances of two LED products with different service life spans to be the same. The rate of LED degrade is a complicate function of many factors such as operating efficiency, duration of continuous operation, and more significantly, environmental conditions (ambient temperature for example). If allowed working under optimal operating temperature range and with good ventilation, LED devices enjoy long service lives over conventional light sources. When using/installing LED devices, care should be taken to ensure that the devices will operate within the operating conditions specified in respective product literature.
Lumen measurement compiles with LM-79-08 standard.
Lumen maintenance is calculated based on LM-80 compliant measurement.
