OVERVIEW

INSTALLATION

DO NOT INSTALL THE FIXTURE IF YOU ARE NOT QUALIFIED TO DO SO!
Fixture MUST be installed following all local, national, and country commercial electrical and construction codes and regulations.
When installing the unit, the trussing or area of installation must be able to hold 10 times the weight of the unit and any attached accessories without any deformation. The unit must be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. an appropriately-rated safety cable.
Before rigging/mounting a single fixture to any metal truss/structure or placing the fixture(s) on any surface, a professional equipment installer MUST be consulted to determine if the metal truss/structure or surface is properly certified to safely hold the combined weight of the fixture(s), clamps, cables, and accessories.
Ambient operating temperature is range -4°F to 113°F (-20°C to 45°C). Do not operate this device when ambient temperature falls outside of this range.
Fixture(s) should be installed away from walking paths, seating areas, or areas where unauthorized personnel might reach the fixture by hand.
NEVER stand directly below the fixture(s) when rigging, removing, or servicing.
Overhead fixture installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, such as an appropriately rated safety cable that can hold 10 times the weight of the fixture.
Overhead mounting requires extensive experience, including calculating working load limits, knowledge of installation material being used, and perodic safety inspection of all installation material as well as the unit itself. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself.
The installation should be checked by a skilled person once a year.
CLAMP MOUNTING
This fixture features two mounting brackets for the attachment of mounting clamps. When mounting the fixture to a truss or any other suspended structure, be sure to secure an appropriate rated clamp (not included) to each mounting bracket. Insert a bolt of appropriate size through the bottom of the mounting clamp and the central hole on the mounting bracket, and secure them together with a matching nut. Additionally, the unit also features a safety cable loop on the top of the fixture (see the illustration below). Attach a separate SAFETY CABLE of the appropriate weight rating to the provided safety cable loop, then secure the other end to a suitable anchor point. Please note that two mounting clamps must be used to safely and securely install this fixture in a suspended environment.

SAFETY CABLE:
**** ALWAYS ATTACH A SAFETY CABLE WHENEVER INSTALLING THIS FIXTURE IN A SUSPENDED ENVIRONMENT TO ENSURE THAT THE FIXTURE WILL NOT FALL IF THE CLAMP FAILS.

INSTALLATION

The unit is fully operational in three different mounting positions: hanging upside-down from the ceiling or trussing, sideways on trussing, or set on a flat level surface. Be sure this fixture is kept at least 12m (40ft) away from any flammable materials (decorations, etc). Always use and install a safety cable (not included) as a safety measure to prevent accidental damage and/or injury in the event the clamp fails. Never use the carrying handles for secondary attachment.
SAFETY CABLE:
**** ALWAYS ATTACH A SAFETY CABLE WHENEVER INSTALLING THIS FIXTURE IN A SUSPENDED ENVIRONMENT TO ENSURE THAT THE FIXTURE WILL NOT FALL IF THE CLAMP FAILS.

ACCESSORY INSTALLATION

DIFFUSION FILTER
A removeable 20-degree diffusion filter is included with the fixture. To install this filter, simply remove the retaining screw on the side of the fixture’s lens and slide the diffusion filter into the slot located in front of the lens. Align the hole in the diffusion filter with the retaining screw hole, then re-install and tighten the retaining screw to secure the filter in place. Please note that the diffusion filter has holes at both ends to allow the filter to be installed facing either direction.

In addition, a 1×40-degree diffusion filter is offered as an optional accessory that is sold separately.

IR BUTTON COLORS

IR DEFAULT VALUES

EDITING IR BUTTON VALUES
These fixtures allow the user to create custom RGBAL values and assign them to the numbered keys (0-15) on the remote control. Follow the steps below:

1. In the main system menu, press MODE to navigate to “Personality,” then press SETUP. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to scroll to “IR Button Colors,” then press SETUP again.
2. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to scroll to the number of the remote button that you would like to use. Options range from “Button 0” to “Button 15.” Press SETUP to select the button shown on the display screen.
3. Create a custom color for the button you have selected by using the UP and DOWN buttons to scroll through the color component options (Red, Green, Blue, Lime, Amber, UV). Press SETUP to select a color component option, then use the UP and DOWN buttons to adjust the intensity of that color component option. Selectable values range from 000 to 255. Repeat this process until you have set the desired Red, Green, Blue, Lime, Amber, and UV intensities to create your custom color.
   NOTE: Once you have created and assigned a custom color value to a remote button, the default color for the remote button will be overridden. This means that the output color of the fixture may no longer resemble the color shown on the remote button. To return to the default color values, reset the unit to the default factory settings by navigating to Personality > Service > Factory Restore.
   NOTE: If multiple units have been linked in a primary-secondary set up, the custom color values only need to be set up on the primary unit. The custom color settings will carry over automatically to any secondary units in the system.

REMOTE DEVICE MANAGEMENT (RDM)REMOTE DEVICE MANAGEMENT (RDM)
NOTE: In order for RDM to work properly, RDM enabled equipment must be used throughout the entire system, including DMX data splitters and wireless systems.
Remote Device Management (RDM) is a protocol that sits on top of the DMX512 data standard for lighting, allowing the DMX systems of the fixtures to be modified and monitored remotely. This protocol is ideal for instances in which a unit is installed in a location that is not easily accessible. With RDM, the DMX512 system becomes bi-directional, allowing a compatible RDM enabled controller to send out a signal to devices on the wire, as well as allowing the fixture to respond (known as a GET command). The controller can then use its SET command to modify settings that would typically have to be changed or viewed directly via the unit’s display screen, including the DMX Address, DMX Channel Mode, and Temperature Sensors.

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 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 (For DMX Operation): This unit can be controlled via DMX- 512 protocol. The DMX address is set on the rear panel of the unit. Your unit and your DMX controller require a standard 5-pin XLR connector for data input and data output. 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 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 of the illustration below 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.

DMX SET UP
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 (ADJ part number Z-DMX/T) will reduce the risk of erratic behavior.

DMX ADDRESSING.
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.
For example, when this unit is operating in 6 channel mode, you should set the starting DMX address of the first unit to 1, the second unit to 7 (1 + 6), the third unit to 13 (1 + 6 + 6), and so on. See the chart below for more details.

PRIMARY-SECONDARY SET UP
This function allows you to link units together to run in a Primary-Secondary set-up, in which one unit will act as the controlling unit and the others will react to the controlling unit’s built-in programs. Any unit can be configured to act as a Primary or as a Secondary, but only one unit in a given system can be programmed to act as the Primary.
Primary-Secondary Connections and Settings:

1. Daisy chain your units via the XLR connectors on the rear panels of each unit. Use standard XLR data cables to link your units together. Remember that the male XLR connector is the input and the female XLR connector is the ouput. The first unit in the chain (primary) will use the female XLR connector only. The last unit in the chain will use the male XLR connector only.
2. Use the display screen and control panel to navigate to Personality > Primary/Secomdary Mode. Select this sub-menu using the SETUP button, and use the UP and DOWN buttons to toggle between “Primary” and “Secondary”. Press SETUP to confirm your selection.
3. Repeat Step 2 for each unit in the system. Make sure that only one unit is designated as the Primary, while all other units are designated as Secondaries.
4. The secondary units will now follow the behavior of the primary unit.
   NOTES:
   • Only one unit should be configured as the primary, while all the other units should be configured as secondaries.
   • All units should be set to the same DMX channel mode.
   • If fixtures fail to sync, verify that all settings mentioned above are the same, then power all devices off, then switch them on again to re-establish the link.

MULTI UNIT POWER LINKING
This features allows you to connect the fixtures to one another using the power cable input and output sockets.
The maximum number of units that can be linked in this manner is as follows:

• 17 units when running on 120V power.
• 32 units when running on 230V power.
  DO NOT EXCEED THIS MAXIMUM NUMBER WHEN POWER LINKING UNITS!
  All linked units must be of the same make and model type. Do not mix and match units!

MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES

DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE!
CLEANING
Frequent cleaning is recommended to ensure proper function, optimized light output, and an extended life. The frequency of cleaning depends on the environment in which the fixture operates: damp, smoky, or particularly dirty environments can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the fixture’s optics.
Clean the external lens surface regularly with a soft cloth to avoid dirt/debris accumulation.
NEVER use alcohol, solvents, or ammonia-based cleaners.
MAINTENANCE
Regular inspections are recommended to ensure proper function and extended life. There are no user serviceable parts inside this fixture. Please refer all other service issues to an authorized ADJ service technician. Should you need any spare parts, please order genuine parts from your local ADJ dealer.
Please refer to the following points during routine inspections:
A. A detailed electrical check by an approved electrical engineer every three months, to make sure the circuit contacts are in good condition and prevent overheating.
B. Be sure all screws and fasteners are securely tightened at all times. Loose screws may fall out during normal operation, resulting in damage or injury as larger parts could fall.
C. Check for any deformations on the housing, color lenses, rigging hardware, and rigging points (ceiling, suspension, trussing). Deformations in the housing could allow for dust to enter into the fixture. Damaged rigging points or unsecured rigging could cause the fixture to fall and seriously injure a person(s).
D. Electric power supply cables must not show any damage, material fatigue, or sediments.
NEVER remove the ground prong from the power cable.
