Installation
The Rockville MOTIONSTRIP features rubber feet for easy floor installation.
To hang the fixture from a truss, use the included mounting clamps and
brackets. There are mounting holes located on the bottom of the fixture (fig
A). Secure the mounting clamps and brackets to these mounting wholes as shown
in figure B.
Operation
Use the MENU button to enter the settings menu. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to
select the desired setting and set their values. Press ENTER button to save
your selection.
Please note: In MASTER mode, MOOO is the setting for built-in motor programs.
Operating Modes
DMXMode
The MOTIONSTRIP can be controlled via any OMX controller. Simply link the
fixture to your OMX controller, program a chase, and then run the chase. You
can also daisy chain multiple units. When you run a chase, the units will
automatically be set to the appropriate OMX channel. The fixture uses four
channels.
Master/Slave Mode
In this mode you can link up to 10 fixtures together. Set the first fixture to
Master and it will control all the other fixtures which will automatically
switch to slave mode (slave is default mode). Any fixture can act as a master
fixture
DMX Termination (Optional)
The last fixture of a OMX chain has to be “terminated”. This prevents
electrical noise from disturbing and corrupting the OMX control signals. To
terminate the last fixture solder a 1/4 Watt, 120 Ohm resistor across the
DATA- and DATA+ wires. The connections are illustrated below. If you are only
connecting a few fixtures which are close together and use a short run to the
controller, you may be able to operate without a terminator.
DMX Controller Function
When using a OMX controller, use the chart below to reference each channel’s
function.
