Installation

The HIPAR-100 is supplied with a dual hanging bracket, which can also be used as a free-standing support.
When installing the fixture, ensure all fixings are secure, controls and connections are accessible, and allow enough space for air to circulate around the housing. Do not aim directly in the line of sight or very close to people where the extremely bright output of the fixture may be harmful to eyesight.
The HIPAR-100 is IP65 weatherproof and all electrical connections are hard- wired with waterproof connectors. An XLR to the waterproof connector is provided for adapting the DMX input lead to a standard DMX signal input. A mains plug to the waterproof connector is provided to adapt the power input leading to a standard mains supply.
Connect the waterproof connectors securely, ensuring that the notches are aligned for correct polarity.
The waterproof plugs have a threaded collar which must be fully tightened onto the waterproof socket.
The HIPAR-100 also has DMX through and power through leads for connecting to further HIPAR cans in a daisy-chain manner. Ensure that the mains power supply is capable of the total load of all cans connected.

Standalone operation
To operate the HIPAR-100 in standalone (autonomous) mode, navigate to and select Master mode. Sound-activated, Static color, Auto, Fade & Strobe modes described above will operate without DMX control.
To control further HIPAR cans in master-slave mode, connect the DMX through from a master HIPAR-100 in
standalone mode to the DMX input of a “slave” HIPAR can that is set to Slave mode under the menu. Further HIPAR cans set to Slave mode may be connected from DMX through to DMX input in a daisy chain. If the strobe setting is, a flashing strobe effect will be applied to the Auto program (slow to fast)
For custom static colors, adjusting the values of xxx, xxx xxx, xxx and xxx gives a manual color mix.
DMX operation
The HIPAR-100 is compatible with standard DMX512 control.
Connect the supplied XLR plug to the waterproof socket lead to the DMX input lead of the first HIPAR can in line to be controlled. Connect further HIPAR cans from the DMX through of the first can to the DMX input of the second can and DMX through of the second can to the DMX input of the third can etc. until all HIPAR cans are connected in a daisy chain. Connect the XLR plug to a DMX controller, ensuring that this connection is protected from the elements.
