Operating instructions

DMX mode:
Operating in a DMX control mode environment gives the user the greatest flexibility when it comes to customizing or creating a show. In this mode, you will be able to control each individual trait of the fixture and each fixture independently.
To access the DMX address mode, press the “MENU” button on the front of the unit to show Addr on the LED display. Now press the “ENTER” button and use the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons to set the required DMX address. Press the “ENTER” button to confirm the setting. To exit out of any of the above options, press the “MENU” button.

DMX channel mode:
To access the DMX channel mode, press the “MENU” button on the front of the unit to show CHNd on the LED display. Now press the “ENTER” button and use the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons  to choose one of the 9 or 14 DMX channel modes. Press the “ENTER” button to confirm the setting.
To exit out of any of the above options, press the “MENU” button.

9 channel mode:

14 channel mode:

Master/slave mode:
To set the master unit, press the “MENU” button on the front of the master unit to show on the LED display. Now press the “ENTER” button and use the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons to choose .
Press the “ENTER” button to confirm the setting. Then select your desired program (sound active or auto).
To set the other units in slave mode, press the “ MENU ” button on the front of the unit to show SLNd on the LED display. Now press the “ENTER” button and use the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons to choose either 1 or SL 2. Press the “ ENTER ” button to confirm the setting. The unit will now run in sequence with the master unit.
To exit out of any of the above options, press the “ MENU ” button.
Please ensure that all slave units are set to the same DMX channel mode as the master unit.

To exit out of any of the above options, press the “MENU” button.

DMX setup

Setting the DMX address:
The DMX mode enables the use of a universal DMX controller. Each fixture requires a “start address” from 1- 512. A fixture requiring one or more channels for control begins to read the data on the channel indicated by the start address. For example, a fixture that occupies or uses 7 channels of DMX and was addressed to start on DMX channel 100, would read data from channels: 100,101,102,103,104,105 and 106. Choose a start address so that the channels used do not overlap. E.g. the next unit in the chain starts at 107.

DMX 512:
DMX (Digital Multiplex) 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 to a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, in the beginning, in 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):
This fixture can be controlled via the DMX-512 protocol. The DMX address is set on the back of the unit.
Your unit and your DMX controller require a standard 3-pin XLR connector for data input/output, see image below.

Also, remember that DMX cable must be daisy-chained and cannot be split.
Further DMX cables can be purchased from all good sound and lighting suppliers or Pro Light Concepts dealers.

Notice:
Be sure to follow the diagrams below when making your own cables. Do not connect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLRs 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.
Using a cable terminator will decrease the possibility of erratic behavior. (3-pin – Order ref: CABL9O, 5-pin – Order ref: CABL89)

Termination reduces signal transmission problems and interference. it is always advisable to connect a DMX terminal, (resistance 120 Ohm 1/4 W) between pin 2 (DMX-) and pin 3 (DMX+) of the last fixture.

5-pin XLR DMX connectors:
Some manufacturers use 5-pin XLR connectors for data transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin XLR fixtures may be implemented in a 3-pin XLR DMX line. When inserting standard 5-pin XLR  connectors in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used. The diagram below details the correct cable conversion.
