DMX Set Up

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 manufactures 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, when using several DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. 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 (For DMX Operation): The LED TOUR PAR 12 can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The LED TOUR PAR 18 has 4 DMX channel modes. The DMX address is set on the back panel of the LED TOUR PAR 18. Your unit and your DMX controller require a standard 3-pin XLR connector 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 pro lighting stores). Your cables should be made with a male and female XLR connector on either end of the cable. Also remember that DMX cable must be daisy chained and cannot be split.

Figure 1

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 cause a short circuit and erratic behavior.

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 cause 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 which is connected between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector (DATA + and DATA -). This unit is inserted in the female XLR connector of the last unit in your daisy chain to terminate the line. Using a cable terminator will decrease the possibilities of erratic behavior.

5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors. Some manufactures 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. When inserting standard 5-pin data cables in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used, these adaptors are readily available at most electric stores. The chart below details a proper cable conversion.

All fixtures should be given a DMX starting address when using a DMX controller, so 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 assignment of this starting DMX address is achieved by setting the correct DMX address on the digital control display on the fixture.

You can set the same starting address for all fixtures or a group of fixtures, or set different addresses for each individual fixture. Setting all fixtures to the same DMX address will cause all fixtures to react in the same way, in other words, 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.
In the case of the LED TOUR PAR 18,when in 13 channel mode you should set the starting DMX address of the first unit to 1, the second unit to 14 (13 + 1), the third unit to 27 (14 + 13), and so on. (See chart below for more details.)

Troubleshooting

Following are a few common problems that may occur during Operation. Here are some suggestions for easy troubleshooting:

1. The unit does not work,no light and the fan does not work

   • Check the connection of power and main fuse.
   • Measure the mains voltage on the main connector.
   • Check the power on Led.

2. Not responding to DMX controller

   • DMX LED should be on. If not ,check DMX connectors,cables to see if link properly.
   • If the DMX LED is on and no response to the channel,check the address settings and DMX polarity.
   • If you have intermittent DMX signal problems,check the pins on connectors or on PCB of the unit or the previous one.
   • Try to use another DMX controller.
   • Check if the DMX cables run near or run alongside to high voltage cables that may cause damage or interference to DMX interface circuit.

3. Some units don’t respond to the easy controller

   • You may have a break in the DMX cabling. Check the LED for the response of the master/slave mode signal.
   • Wrong DMX address in the unit .Set the proper address.

4. One of the channels is not working well

   • The stepper motor might be damaged or the cable connected to the PCB is broken.
   • The motor’s drive IC on the PCB might be out of condition

5. Fixture Cleaning
   The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates :damp, smoky or particularly dirty surrounding can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the unit’s optics.

   • Clean with soft cloth using normal glass cleaning fluid.
   • Always dry the parts carefully.
