Replacement of the fuse
Need to replace with same type and rating(T 2A-250V), which originally installed in the device.

Step One: Unplug power cable from main power.
Step Two: Unscrew the fuse holder out of the housing with a screwdriver.
Step Three: Remove the broken fuse and replace with an exact same type of new fuse.
Step Four: Insert the fuse holder back to the housing and screw tight and reconnect power.

Installation

The device could be either put on a solid and even surface, or mounted upside down or sideways like left picture. The mounting place must be sufficient stable and be able to support a weight of 10 times of the unit’s weight. When the fixture is hanged, always additionally secure the device with the safety chain, fasten the safety rope at a suitable position so that the maximum fall of the projector will be 20 cm.

DMX Connection and DMX Protocol

DMX addressing:
The device is controlled by universal DMX 512 protocol, DMX address is the start channel used to receive instructions from the external controller. For independent control, each fixture must be assigned its unique address control channels. For example, this device has three channel modes: St/Ex/Ba, if we set the mode at standard 18 channels mode, and there are several models need to be independently controlled. We just simply address first fixture at 1, second fixture at 21, and third one at 41, etc.
If the devices have the same address, they will behave synchronically. DMX addressing is limited, don’t set the address so high without enough control channels for the fixtures. Display is flashing when no DMX signal is received. Connection: use DMX cable with 5-pin XLR-plugs to connect the controller with the fixture or one fixture with another.

Setting Options by RDM

You can remotely configure the fixture over the DMX line using RDM. A full list of the RDM functions that STAGE 100F fixture supports is given at the end of this chapter. These functions are generally referred to using the more specific term ‘PIDs’ or ‘Parameter IDs’. Scanning for RDM devices on the data link Before you can communicate with fixtures using RDM, you must send a scan command(also called a device discovery command) to all the devices on the data link so that the RDM controller can identify them. It does this by retrieving each device’s factory-set parameter identifier(PID). This process can take some time depending on the number of devices on the link. To identify the fixtures on the link: Check that the fixtures are correctly connected to the RDM controller on the data link and that power is applied to all fixtures.

Go to discover devices of the RDM controller.
Give the controller time to identify the devices on the link and prepare for communication with the devices.

Unique Features

RDM, stand for “Remote Device Management”, with this function, users can realize remote control of the device, such as remotely changing DMX address, reversing pan/tilt setting, and checking a lot of useful information such as temperature, power consumption, fan speed, etc. Every single device has a unique RDM code before leaving factory to distinguish from each other. Usually not suggest users change this code freely.
Software upgrade function via DMX cable, if there is any new firmware for this device coming out, it can be upgraded simply via a software upgrade box, no need to change any mechanical parts. The upgrade box is not included in the package, if need any further assistance please just contact authorized dealers.
Hibernation, the device will enter sleeping mode if activated after a period of disconnecting DMX signal to save the power consumption, and will return immediately as soon as the DMX signal is sent again.
Display battery, this function is prepaid in the display PCB. Users just need to install a normal 10440 600mAh 3.7V rechargeable lithium battery, then users could power on the display and do setting without being connected to main power.
Display back-up communication IC, there is a back-up communication IC installed in the display PCB, so users could replace at once if the working one is broken, no need to wait long time from service.
Display flip：by press up and down button for more than 3 seconds, the display will flip automatically. This function is useful to read menu conveniently when device is hanged.
