Plug and connection assignment

Introduction
This chapter will help you select the right cables and plugs to connect your valuable equipment so that a perfect light experience is guaranteed.
Please take our tips, because especially in ‘Sound & Light’ caution is indicated: Even if a plug fits into a socket, the result of an incorrect connection may be a destroyed DMX controller, a short circuit or ‘just’ a not working light show!

DMX connections

The unit offers a 3-pin XLR socket for DMX output and a 3-pin XLR plug for DMX input. Please refer to the drawing and table below for the pin assignment of a suit‐able XLR plug.

Pin Configuration
1 Ground, shielding
2 Signal inverted (DMX–, ‘cold signal’)
3 Signal (DMX+, ‘hot signal’)

Troubleshooting

In the following we list a few common problems that may occur during operation. We give you some suggestions for easy troubleshooting:

Symptom Remedy
The unit does not work, no light, the fan does not run 1. Check the power

connection and main fuse.
No response to the DMX controller| 1. If the display shows a flashing number, for example ‘001’, no DMX signal is being received. Check the DMX connectors and cables for proper connection.
2. If the display does not flash and there is no response, check the address set‐ tings and DMX polarity.
3. Try using another DMX controller.
4. Check whether the DMX cables run near or parallel to high-voltage cables that may cause damage or interference to a DMX interface circuit.
No response to the remote control| 1. Check the remote control battery.
2. Try using the remote control at a different angle to the IR sensor on the front panel of the device.
No response to the wireless foot switch| 1. Check the battery of the wireless foot switch.
2. Check in the ‘SYS’ menu whether the interface for the wireless footswitch is active.
3. Decrease the distance between the wireless footswitch and the LED bar.

Cleaning

Optical lenses
Clean the optical lenses, that are accessible from the outside, regularly in order to optimize the light output. The frequency of cleaning depends on the operating envi‐ronment: wet, smoky or particularly dirty surroundings can cause more accumulation of dirt on the optics of the device.

  • Clean with a soft cloth using our lamp and lens cleaner (item no. 280122).
  • Always dry the parts carefully.

Protecting the environment

Disposal of the packing material

Environmentally friendly materials have been chosen for the packaging. These mate‐rials can be sent for normal recycling. Ensure that plastic bags, packaging, etc. are dis‐posed of in the proper manner.
Do not dispose of these materials with your normal household waste, but make sure that they are collected for recycling. Please follow the instructions and markings on the packaging.
Observe the disposal note regarding documentation in France.

Disposal of batteries

Batteries do contain some hazardous chemicals so they should not be thrown away with the normal household waste. They should be returned to the manufacturer for disposal or recycled elsewhere in accordance with your local regulations.
Only dispose of lithium batteries when they are empty. Remove lithium batteries from the device before disposal if this is possible without destroying it. Protect used lithium batteries against short circuit, for example by taping the poles. Dispose the built-in lithium batteries together with the device. Check for an appropriate collec‐tion facility.
Dispose of the batteries and rechargeable batteries at relevant collection points or through your local waste facility
