IP NOTICE

IP65 RATED
An IP-rated lighting fixture is commonly installed in outdoor environments and has been designed with an enclosure that effectively protects the ingress (entry) of external foreign objects such as dust and water. The International Protection (IP) rating system is commonly expressed as “IP” (Ingress Protection) followed by two numbers (i.e. IP65)   here the numbers define the degree of protection. The first digit (Foreign Bodies Protection) indicates the extent of protection against particles entering the fixture, and the second digit (Water Protection) indicates the extent of protection against water entering the fixture. An IP65 rated lighting fixture, such as this device, has been designed and tested to protect against the ingress of dust (6) and high-pressure water jets from any direction  (5).

MARINE/COASTAL ENVIRONMENT INSTALLATIONS!
Please note that although this fixture is IP rated, the fixture is NOT suitable for marine and/or coastal environment installations. Installing this fixture in a marine and/or  coastal environment may cause corrosion and/or excessive wear to the interior and/or exterior components of the fixture. Damages and/or performance issues resulting from installation in a marine and/or coastal environment will void the manufacturer’s warranty and will NOT be subject to any warranty claims and/or repairs.

Ensure ALL connections and end caps are properly sealed with a non- conductive dielectric grease (available at most electrical suppliers) to prevent water ingress/condensation and/or corrosion.

OPTIONAL CORROSION-RESISTANT COATING
Optional Corrosion-Resistant Coatings may be available for this fixture. Please consult your Elation Professional sales representative for details.

PROTECTION VALVE

| This IP-rated fixture features a protective vent valve that equalizes pressure, prevents contamination, and reduces condensation, ultimately extending the lifetime of the fixture.
---|---

IMPORTANT: MUST READ!!!

If this fixture is installed in an extreme and/or harsh outdoor/wet environment, it MUST be powered on and used for a minimum of 30 minutes every 10-15 days. Prolonged exposure to an extreme and/or harsh outdoor/wet environment with- usage as stated above can lead to component damage and/or shortening the lifetime of the fixture.  ny component damage that has been determined to be the direct result of not following this procedure may void the manufacturer’s warranty.

BATTERY PRECAUTIONS

1. HANDLING OF BATTERIES
1.1 Do not short circuit the battery
Avoid subjecting the battery to a short circuit, as doing so generates a very high current, resulting in overheating, electrolyte gel leakage, harmful fumes, explosion risk, or other damage to the battery. The LIR tabs are susceptible to short-circuiting when placed on a conductive surface. Protective circuitry with PCM is employed to protect accidental short circuits of the battery pack.

1.2 Mechanical shock
Dropping, impacting, striking, or bending the unit, or subjecting the unit to any other types of mechanical shock may cause failure or shortened life of the battery.

2. OTHER
2.1 Battery connection

• Direct soldering of wire leads or devices to the battery is strictly prohibited.
• Lead tabs with pre-soldered wiring shall be spot welded to the batteries. Direct soldering may cause damage to components, such as the separator and insulator, as a result of heat build-up.

2.2 Prevention of short-circuiting within a battery pack
There is a sufficient amount of insulation between the wiring and the batteries to provide extra safety protection. The battery pack is constructed in such a way as to prevent short circuits that can result in smoke or fire.

2.3 Do not disassemble the batteries

• Never disassemble the batteries, as doing so may result in an internal short circuit in the battery, leading to fire, explosion, release of harmful fumes, or other hazards.
• Electrolyte gel is harmful, and contact should be avoided whenever possible. Should the electrolyte gel come into contact with the skin or eyes, flush the area of contact immediately with fresh water and seek medical attention immediately.

2.4 Do not expose the battery to heat or fire

Never incinerate or dispose of the batteries in fire, as this could result in an explosion.

2.5 Do not expose the battery to water or liquids
Never expose or immerse the batteries in liquids of any type, including water, seawater, soft drinks, juices, coffee, or other beverages.

3.6 Battery Replacement
For battery replacement please contact ADJ customer support.

3.7 Never use a damaged battery
Shipping carries a risk of damage to the battery. Should damage be observed, including damage to the plastic casing of the battery, deformation of the battery package, chemical r electrolyte odor, leakage of the electrolyte gel, or any other miscellaneous damage, DO NOT use the battery. A battery with an odor of electrolyte or a gel leakage should be laced away from the fire to avoid the risk of fire or explosion.

BATTERY PRECAUTIONS

3. BATTERY STORAGE
The battery should be stored at room temperature, with a charge of at least 50%. During long periods of storage, it is recommended that the battery be charged every 6 months. Doing so will prolong the life of the battery and will also make sure that the battery charge does not fall below the 30% mark.

4. OTHER CHEMICAL REACTIONS
Because batteries rely on a chemical reaction to work, battery performance will deteriorate over time, even if stored for a long period of time without being used. In addition, if arious usage conditions (such as charge, discharge, ambient temperature, etc.) are not maintained within the specified ranges, the life expectancy of the battery maybe shortened r the device in which the battery is used may be damaged by electrolyte gel leakage. If the batteries cannot maintain a charge for long periods of time, even when they are charged correctly, this may indicate the need to replace the battery.

5. BATTERY DISPOSAL
Please dispose of the battery according to local regulations.

SETUP

Power Supply: The ADJ WiFly EXR HEX5 IP contains an automatic voltage switch, which will automatically sense the voltage when it is plugged into the power source. With this switch, there is no need to worry about the correct power voltage, and this unit can be plugged in anywhere.

DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This 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. When linking several DMX fixtures, try to use the shortest cable path possible in order to ensure proper DMX data transmission. The order in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the DMX addressing. For example, a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in a

DMX line: at the beginning, at 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.

DMX Cable Requirements: The WiFly EXR HEX5 IP can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The WiFly EXR HEX5 IP has 5 DMX channel modes (see the DMX Traits section of this manual for detailed information). The DMX address is set on the back panel of the WiFly EXR HEX5 IP.

Cable Requirements: This fixture is designed with special cables for both DMX and power. These cables are specifically designed to maintain the integrity of the IP rating. When using this fixture for outdoor applications, be sure to ONLY use the ADJ cables that have been manufactured to meet the IP rating.

“First” DMX Cables – A special DMX “First” cable (part #WIF901-DMX Cable) may be purchased from ADJ to provide a means of data communication with standard DMX fixtures for indoor use. These cables will come with the IP-rated twist-lock connector on one end and either a 3-pin XLR male or female connector on the other, depending on the model. Be sure to only use these cables for intergrading this fixture in a standard DMX chain.

“First” Power Cable – A special power “First” cable is included with every fixture. This cable is used to provide power to your fixture. This cable comes with the IP-rated twist-lock connector on one end and a standard 3-prong, grounded connector on the other end. Be sure to only use this cable for power distribution. Never attempt to connect this cable to the DMX lines.
You can chain multiple fixtures together through serial linking using the IP- rated signal cables provided through ADJ (part# WIF901-Power Cable). Always be sure to daisy-chain your in and out data connections, and never split or “Y” your DMX connections unless you are using an approved DMX splitter, such as the ADJ WiFly D6 Branch or the original D6 Branch (both units are not IP rated).

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. A terminator is a 110-120  hm 1/4 watt resistor that is connected between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector (DATA+ and data-). This unit is inserted into the female XLR connector of the last nit in your daisy chain to terminate the line. Using a cable terminator (ADJ part number Z-DMX/T) will decrease the risk of erratic behavior.

| A DMX512 terminator reduces signal errors, avoiding most signal reflection interference. Connect PIN 2 (DMX-) and PIN 3 (DMX+) of the last fixture in series with a 120 Ohm, 1/4 W Resistor to terminate the DMX512.
---|---

5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors. Some manufacturers use 5-pin DMX-512 data cables for DATA transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin DMX fixtures may be implemented in a 3-pin DMX line by using a cable adapter. These adapters are readily available at most electronics stores. The chart below details a proper cable conversion.

3-Pin XLR to 5-Pin XLR Conversion

Conductor| 3-Pin XLR Female (Out)| 5-Pin XLR Male (In)
Ground/Shield| Pin 1| Pin 1
Data Compliment (- signal)| Pin 2| Pin 2
Data True (+ signal)| Pin 3| Pin 3
Not Used| | Do Not Use
Not Used| | Do Not Use

DMX ADDRESSING: All fixtures should be given a DMX starting address when operating with a DMX controller, in order to ensure that the correct fixture responds to the correct control signal. This digital starting address is the channel number from which the fixture starts to “listen” to the digital control signal sent out from the DMX controller. The starting DMX address is configured by setting the correct DMX address on the control panel display on the fixture.
You can set the same starting address for multiple fixtures, or set different addresses for each individual fixture. Setting multiple fixtures to the same DMX address will cause all those fixtures to react in the same way. In this case, please note that changing the settings of one channel will affect all the fixtures simultaneously.
If you set each fixture to a different DMX address, each unit will start to “listen” to the channel number you have set, based on the quantity of DMX channels of each fixture. That means changing the settings of one channel will only affect the selected fixture.
As an example, when operating this device in 6 channel mode, you should set the starting DMX address of the first unit to 1, the second unit to 7 (1 + 6), the third unit to 13 (1 + 6 + 6), and so on. (See the chart below for more details.)

Channel Mode| Unit 1 Address| Unit 2 Address| Unit 3 Address| Unit 4 Address
---|---|---|---|---
6 Ch| 1| 7| 13| 19
7 Ch| 1| 8| 15| 22
8 Ch| 1| 9| 17| 25
11 Ch| 1| 12| 23| 34
12 Ch| 1| 13| 25| 37

COLOR MACROS CHART

BATTERY STATUS AND CHARGING

BATTERY STATUS:
This function is used to check the charge status of the battery. Plug the fixture in and press the  MODE button until “BATT LEV XXX%” is displayed. “XXX” represents the currently remaining  atter
life. If “BATT LEV —-” is displayed, it means that the unit is running on AC power. Please do not fully deplete the battery charge, as this severely shortens the life of the battery.

NOTE : When the battery life is below 30%, the battery percentage number will flash. At 15% power, the fixture will shut off automatically.

NOTE: When using battery power, after 20 seconds of inactivity, the display will revert back to the battery life display.

BATTERY RECHARGING:
To recharge the battery, plug one end of the supplied AC cord into the AC input on the side of the unit, and the other end into a matching power supply. It takes approximately 5 hours to reach full charge (with the power off). The display will STOP flashing when the unit reaches 100% charge.

NOTE: When unplugging the unit from charging and then applying power via a battery, there will be a small charge drop.
For faster recharging, turn the Load setting to “Off” and turn the battery “On”. See the “Battery Load” sub-section in the Operating Instructions section of this manual.

POWER CORD DAISY CHAIN

These units have the capability to be daisy-chained together via the power in/out ports. The maximum number of units that can be linked together in this manner is 10 units.

DO NOT EXCEED THE NUMBER OF UNITS LISTED ABOVE.

DO NOT MIX MAKE AND MODEL TYPES WHEN DAISY-CHAINING! All units that are connected in this manner must be of the same make and model type.
Note: Fixtures cannot be daisy-chained while running on battery power.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Listed below is a common problem the user may encounter, with a possible solution. Unit not responding to DMX: Check that the DMX cables are connected and wired correctly (pin 3 is “hot”; on some other DMX devices pin 2 may be “hot”). Also, check that all cables are connected to the right connectors, as the order in which the inputs and outputs are connected does affect how the unit operates.

CLEANING

Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust, cleaning the internal and external optical lenses must be carried out periodically to optimize light output.

• Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the outside casing.
• Periodically clean the external optics with a glass cleaner and a soft cloth.
• Always be sure to dry all parts completely before plugging the unit back in.
  Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates (i.e. smoke, fog residue, dust, dew).
