CONNECTION OF THE DMX LINE
DMX connection employs standard XLR connectors. Use shielded pair-twisted cables with 120Ω impedance and low capacity.
The following diagram shows the connection mode

ATTENTION
The screened parts of the cable (sleeve) must never be connected to the system’s earth, as this would cause faulty fixture and controller operation. Over long runs can be necessary to insert a DMX level matching amplifier. For those connections the use of balanced microphone cable is not recommended because it cannot transmit control DMX data reliably.

• Connect the controller DMX input to the DMX output of the first unit.
• Connect the DMX output to the DMX input of the following unit. Connect again the output to the input of the following unit until all the units are connected in chain.
• When the signal cable has to run longer distance is recommended to insert a DMX termination on the last unit

CONSTRUCTION OF THE DMX TERMINATION
The termination avoids the risk of DMX 512 signals being reflected back along the cable when they reaches the end of the line: under certain conditions and with certain cable lengths, this could cause them to cancel the original signals.
The termination is prepared by soldering a 120Ω 1/4 W resistor between pins 2 and 3 of the 5-pin male XLR connector, as shown in figure.

MAINTENANCE

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING THE UNIT

• Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during setup.
• Switch off the unit, unplug the main cable and wait until the unit has cooled down.
• All screws used for installing the device and any of its parts should be tightly fastened and should not be corroded.
• Housings, fixations and installation spots (ceiling, trusses, suspensions) should be totally free from any deformation.
• When the lens is visibly damaged due to cracks or deep scratches, it must be replaced.
• The main cables must be in impeccable condition and should be replaced immediately even when a small problem is detected.
• In order to protect the device from overheating the cooling fans (if any), and ventilation openings should be cleaned monthly.

To ensure optimal operation and performance for a long time it is essential to periodically clean the parts subject to dust and grease deposits. The frequency with which the following operations are to be carried out depends on various factors, such as the amount of the effects and the quality of the working environment (air humidity, presence of dust, salinity, etc.). Use a soft cloth dampened with any detergent liquid for cleaning glass to remove the dirt from the reflectors, from the lenses and filters. It is recommended that the projector undergoes an annual service by a qualified technician for special maintenance involving at least the following operations:

• General cleaning of internal parts..
• Restoring lubrication of all parts subject to friction, using lubricants specifically.
• General visual check of the internal components, cabling, mechanical parts, etc.
• Electrical, photometric and functional checks; eventual repairs.
  Warning: we strongly recommend internal cleaning to be carried out by qualified personnel!

FUSE REPLACEMENT

1. Disconnect this product from the power outlet.
2. Using a screwdriver, unscrew the fuse holder cap from the housing.
3. Remove the blown fuse and replace with a good fuse of the same type and rating.
4. Screw the fuse holder cap back in place and reconnect power.

TROUBLESHOOTING

|

• Check the power supply voltage
• Increase the value of the dimmer channels
• Increase the value of the color channels
• Replace the LED board
• Replace the LED board

General low light intensity|

• Dirty lens assembly
• Misaligned lens assembly

|

•  Clean the fixture regularly
• Install lens assembly properly

**** Fixture does not power up|

• No power
• Loose or damaged power cord
• Faulty internal power supply

|

• Check for power on power outlet
