SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
RISK GROUP 3 – RISK OF EXPOSURE TO ULTRAVIOLET (UV) RADIATION!
THE FIXTURE EMITS HIGH-INTENSITY ULTRAVIOLET (UV) LIGHT AT A WAVELENGTH OF
398NM – 431NM. WEAR PROPER EYE AND SKIN PROTECTION. AVOID PROLONGED PERIODS OF
EXPOSURE. AVOID WEARING WHITE COLOR CLOTHING AND/OR USING (UV) PAINTS ON THE
SKIN. AVOID DIRECT EYE AND/OR SKIN EXPOSURE AT DISTANCES SHORTER THAN 11 feet
(3.3m). DO NOT OPERATE FIXTURE WITH DAMAGED OR MISSING EXTERNAL COVER
PROTECTIVE LENS. DO NOT LOOK DIRECTLY INTO THE (UV) LIGHT AND/OR VIEW (UV)
LIGHT DIRECTLY WITH OPTICAL INSTRUMENTS THAT MAY CONCENTRATE THE
LIGHT/RADIATION OUTPUT. INDIVIDUALS SUFFERING FROM A RANGE OF EYE CONDITIONS,
SUNLIGHT EXPOSURE DISORDERS, OR INDIVIDUALS USING PHOTOSENSITIVE MEDICATION
MAY EXPERIENCE DISCOMFORT IF EXPOSED TO THE ULTRAVIOLET (UV) LIGHT EMITTED
FROM THIS FIXTURE.
LASER WARNINGS AND SAFETY
NON-INTERLOCKED HOUSING WARNING
This device contains high-power laser devices. Do not open the laser housing,
as doing so may result in exposure to unsafe levels of laser radiation.
Without the protective housing in place, the laser power levels can cause
instant blindness, skin burns, and fires.
STOP AND READ ALL LASER SAFETY DATA OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS AND LASER SAFETY
The light source emitted from this product can potentially cause eye injury if not set up and used properly. The light source emitted from a laser is very different from any other light source that you may have had experience with. Laser light is thousands of times more concentrated than light from any other kind of light source. This concentration of light can cause instant eye injuries, primarily by burning the retina (the back of your eyeball containing cells that are sensitive to light). Even if you cannot feel “heat” from a laser beam, it still has the potential to injure or blind you or your audience. Even very small amounts of laser beam light are potentially hazardous, even at long distances. Laser eye injuries can be sustained faster than you can blink.
Although this device splits the laser beam into hundreds of beams and the
laser beam is scanned out at high speed, EVEN A SINGLE, INDIVIDUAL LASER
BEAM IS NOT SAFE FOR EYE EXPOSURE. This laser uses dozens of milliwatts of
laser power (Class 3B levels internally) before it splits into multiple beams
(Class 3R levels). Many of the individual beams are potentially hazardous to
the eyes.
THE FACT THAT THE LASER IS IN MOTION DOES NOT MEAN THAT IT IS SAFE.
Furthermore, the laser beams are not always in motion. Since eye injuries can
occur instantly, it is critical to prevent even the smallest possibility of
any direct eye exposure.
SAFETY REGULATIONS STATE CLEARLY THAT IT IS ILLEGAL TO AIM CLASS 3R LASERS
AT AREAS WHERE PEOPLE COULD POTENTIALLY BE EXPOSED. This is true even if it
is aimed below people’s faces, such as on a dance floor.
DO NOT OPERATE THE LASER WITHOUT FIRST READING AND UNDERSTANDING ALL SAFETY
AND TECHNICAL DATA IN THIS MANUAL.
Always set up and install all laser effects so that all laser light is aimed
at least 3 meters (9.8 feet) above the floor where people may be standing.
LASER WARNINGS AND SAFETY
After the device has been set up, and prior to public use, test the laser to ensure proper function. Do not use if defects of any kind are detected. DO NOT USE IF LASER EMITS ONLY ONE OR TWO LASER BEAMS RATHER THAN DOZENS/HUNDREDS, as this could indicate damage to the diffraction grating optic, and could allow emission of higher laser levels above Class 3R. Do not point lasers at people or animals. Never look into the laser aperture of laser beams. Do not point lasers in areas in which people can potentially get exposed, such as uncontrolled balconies, etc. Do not point lasers at highly reflective surfaces, such as windows, mirrors, and shiny metal. Even laser reflections can be hazardous.
NEVER POINT A LASER AT AIRCRAFT. THIS IS A FEDERAL OFFENSE.
Never point un-terminated laser beams into the sky. Do not expose the output
optic (aperture) to cleaning chemicals. Do not use laser if the laser appears
to be emitting only one or two beams. Do not use the laser if the housing is
damaged, if the housing is open, or if the optics appear damaged in any way.
Never open the laser housing. The high laser power levels inside of the
protective housing can start fires, burn skin, and will cause instant eye
injury. Never leave this device running unattended. The operation of a class
3R laser show is only allowed if the show is controlled by a skilled and well-
trained operator who is familiar with the information presented in this
manual. The legal requirements for using laser entertainment products vary
from country to country. The user is responsible for the legal requirements at
the location/country of use. Always use proper lighting safety cables when
hanging lights and effects overhead.
SETUP
Power Supply: The ADJ Stinger II 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 by most lighting and controller manufacturers 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, try to use the shortest cable path possible when linking several DMX fixtures. 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.
Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements: The Stinger II can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The Stinger II has 2 DMX channel modes: a 2-channel mode and 9 channel mode. The DMX address is set electronically using the controls on the back panel of the unit. Your unit and your DMX controller require an approved DMX-512 110 Ohm Data cable for data input and data output (Figure 1). We recommend Accu-Cable DMX cables. If you are making your own cables, be sure to use standard 110-120 Ohm shielded cable (This cable may be purchased at almost all professional sound and lighting stores). Your cables should be made with a male XLR connector at one end and a female XLR connector at the other. Also, remember that DMX cable must be daisy-chained and cannot be split.
Notice: Be sure to follow figures two and three when making your own cables. Do not use the ground lug on the XLR connector. Do not connect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding the shield could result in 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. A terminator is a 110-120 ohm 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 unit in your daisy chain to terminator the line. Using a cable terminator (ADJ part number Z-DMX/T) will reduce the risk of erratic behavior.
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 by using a cable adapter. These adaptors are readily available at most electric 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| | Pin 4 – Do Not Use
Not Used| | Pin 5 – Do Not Use
INSTALLATION
The unit should be mounted using a mounting clamp (not provided), and affixing the clamp to the mounting bracket that is provided with the unit. Always ensure that the unit is firmly fixed to avoid vibration and slipping during operation. Always ensure that the structure to which you are attaching the unit is secure and is able to support at least 10 times the unit’s weight. Also, always use a safety cable that can hold at least 12 times the weight of the unit when installing the fixture. The equipment must be installed by a professional, and it must be installed in a place where it is out of the reach of the general public.

FUSE REPLACEMENT
Disconnect the unit from its power source, then remove the power cord from the unit. Locate the fuse holder inside the power socket, then insert a flat-head screwdriver into the power socket and gently pry out the fuse holder. Remove the bad fuse and replace it with a new one. Please note that the fuse holder also contains a slot for holding a spare fuse.
CLEANING
Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust, cleaning the internal and external optical lenses and mirrors should be carried out periodically in order to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates (I.e. smoke, fog residue, dust, dew). In heavy club use, cleaning on a monthly basis is recommended, and such periodic cleaning will ensure fixture longevity and crisp output.
- Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the outside casing.
- Use a brush to wipe down the cooling vents and fan grill.
- Clean the internal and external optics and mirror with a glass cleaner and a soft cloth on a regular basis.
- Always be sure to dry all parts completely before reassembling the unit and plugging it back in.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Listed below are a few common problems that may occur, along with potential
solutions.
No light output from the unit:
- Check that the external fuse has not blown. The fuse is located on the rear panel of the unit.
- Check that the fuse holder is fully and properly seated.
The unit does not respond to sound:
- Low frequencies (bass) will trigger the sound active reaction. Tapping on the microphone or quiet or high-pitched sounds may not activate the unit.
- Check that sound sensitivity is enabled, and adjust if necessary.
