2. To set your desired DMX channel mode and DMX address follow the instructions on page 11.

3. When connecting to a DMX controller or using MyDMX, you will need to use an RJ45 to 3pin adapter
   . This can be purchased through ADJ.

4. Connect the first unit to the adapter and then connect to either your DMX controller or MyDMX.

5. Follow the DMX traits on pages 6-9 to control your unit.
   DO NOT daisy-chain more than 32 Panels when connecting directly to a DMX controller.

Primary-Secondary Configuration

Primary-Secondary Configuration:
This function will allow you to link units together to run in a Primary- Secondary set-up. In a Primary-Secondary set up one unit will act as the controlling unit and the others will react to the controlling unit’s built-in programs. Any unit can act as a Primary or as a Secondary; however, only one unit can be programmed to act as the “Primary.”
Primary-Secondary Connections and Settings:

1. Daisy chain your units via the DMX connections located on the side of the unit.
2. Connect the first “Secondary” unit to the “Primary.”
3. Press the MENU button until “SecD” is displayed and press ENTER. For the “Primary” unit press the UP or DOWN buttons until ‘Pri” is displayed and press ENTER. This is now the “Primary” unit.
4. Set the “Primary” unit to your desired mode of operation. On the “Secondary” units, press the MENU button until “SecD” is displayed and press ENTER. Press the UP  or DOWN buttons until ‘SecD” is displayed and press ENTER. The “Secondary” unit(s) will now follow the “Primary”.

Multiple Unit Power Linking

With this feature, you can connect the fixtures to one another using the IEC input and output sockets. The maximum that can be connected is 130 fixtures @ 120V and 250  fixtures @ 240V. After the maximum connected fixtures, you will need to use a new power outlet. NOTE: USE CAUTION WHEN POWER LINKING OTHER FIXTURES  TO THE 3D VISION PLUS AS THE POWER CONSUMPTION OF OTHER LIGHTING FIXTURES WILL VARY!

Pixel Configurations

In the default configuration (CONFIG 1), PIXEL #1 is located at the top section of the unit. Look for the word TOP printed on the backside to determine the top section.
To change the position of PIXEL #1, select one the pixel configurations (1-6) in the system menu.
See ilustration below for the pixel configuration layout.

Mounting and Grouping

When installing the unit, the trussing or area of installation must be able to hold 10 times the weight
without any deformation. When installing the unit must be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. included safety cable. Never stand directly below the unit when mounting, removing, or servicing the unit.
Overhead mounting requires extensive experience, including calculating working load limits, installation material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all installation material and units. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself.
The installation should be checked by a skilled person once a year.
To connect your 3D Visions to one another you can use a quick release panel lock (sold separately).
To use the quick release panel lock simply squeeze the ends of the quick release panel locks inwards and attach to one of the six outer rigging bar attachment points. You can use a pro clamp with 10M bolt attached to the rear middle of the unit (as seen below) to attach to the trussing. See the next page for all rigging areas and quick release connections.

Mounting and Grouping

Dimensional Drawing

Fuse Replacement

Disconnect the unit from its power source. Remove the power cord from the unit. Once the cord has been removed, you will find that the fuse holder is located next to the power socket. Use a Philips-head screw driver to unscrew and remove the fuse holder. Remove the bad fuse and replace with a new one.

Trouble Shooting

Listed below are a few common problems the user may encounter, with solutions.
Unit not responding to DMX:

1. Check that the DMX cables are connected properly and are 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; it does matter which way the inputs and outputs are connected.

The unit does not respond to sound:

1. Quiet or high-pitched sounds will not activate the unit.
2. Make sure that Sound Active mode is activated.

Cleaning

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

1. Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the outside casing.
2. Clean the external optics with a glass cleaner and a soft cloth every 20 days.
3. 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).
