4. How To Control The Unit
You can operate the unit in three ways:
1. Master/slave built-in preprogram function
2. Easy controller
3. Universal DMX controller
No need to turn the unit off when you change the DMX address, as new DMX address setting will be effect
at once. Every time you turn the unit on, it will show “LED-MS50” on the display and move all the motors to
their ‘home’ position and you may hear some noises for about 20 seconds. After that the unit will be ready
to receive DMX signal or run the built in programs.
4.1 Master/Slave Built In Preprogrammed Function
By linking the units in master/slave connection, the first unit will control the other units to give an automatic,
sound activated, synchronized light show. This function is good when you want an instant show. You have
to set the first unit in master mode Show Mode and select show 1 or show 2 or show 3 or show 4 mode.
Its DMX input jack will have nothing plugged into it, and Its master LED will be constantly on and sound
LED will flash to the music. The other units will have to set in slave mode and select Slave 1 (normal) or
Slave 2 (2 light show) mode, Their DMX cables plugged into the DMX input jacks (daisy chain) and the
slave led lights will constantly on.
2-light show
In slave mode, Slave 1 means the unit works normally and Slave 2 means 2-light show. In order to create
a great light show, you can set Slave 2 on the second unit to get contrast movement to each other, even if
you have two units only.
4.2 Easy Controller
The easy remote control is used only in master/slave mode. By connecting to the 1/4” microphone jack of
the first unit, you will find that the remote controller on the first unit will control all the other units in Stand by,
and Mode selection.

4.3 DMX Controller
By using a universal DMX controller to control the units, you will need to set DMX address from 1 to 512 so
that the units can receive DMX signal.
Press the MENU button up to when the DMX Address is showing on the display. Pressing ENTER button
and the display will blink. Use DOWN and UP button to change the DMX512 address. Once the address
has been selected, press the ENTER button to setup, to go back to the functions without any change press

the MENU button again. Hold and press the MENU button about one second or wait for one minute to exit
the menu mode. Please refer to the following diagram to address your DMX512 channel for the first 4

Termination reduces signal error and avoids signal
transmission problems and interference. It is always
advisable to connect a DMX terminal.
(Resistance 120 ohm 1/4W)between pin2(DMX-)and
pin3(DMX+) of the last fixture.
1. If you using a controller with 5 pins DMX output, you need to use a 5 to 3 pin adapter-cable.
2. At last unit, the DMX cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 ohm 1/4W resistor
between pin 2(DMX-) and pin 3(DMX+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last
unit.
3. Connect the unit together in a `daisy chain` by XLR plug from the output of the unit to the input of the
next unit. The cable can not branched or split to a `Y` cable. DMX 512 is a very high-speed signal.

15E
Inadequate or damaged cables, soldered joints or corroded connectors can easily distort the signal
and shut down the system.
4. The DMX output and input connectors are pass-through to maintain the DMX circuit, when one of the
units’ power is disconnected.
5. Each lighting unit needs to have an address set to receive the data sent by the controller. The address
number is between 0-511 (usually 0 & 1 are equal to 1).
6. The end of the DMX 512 system should be terminated to reduce signal errors.
7. 3 pin XLR connectors are more popular than 5 pin XLR.
3 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+)
5 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+), Pin 4/Pin 5: Not used.
5. Troubleshooting
Following are a few common problems that may occur during operation. Here are some
suggestions for easy troubleshooting:
A. The unit does not work, no light and the fan does not work
1. Check the connection of power and main fuse.
2. Measure the mains voltage on the main connector.
3. Check the power on LED.
B. Not responding to DMX controller
1. DMX LED should be on. If not, check DMX connectors, cables to see if link properly.
2. If the DMX LED is on and no response to the channel, check the address settings and DMX
polarity.
3. If you have intermittent DMX signal problems, check the pins on connectors or on PCB of the unit or
the previous one.
4. Try to use another DMX controller.
5. Check if the DMX cables run near or run alongside to high voltage cables that may cause damage or
interference to DMX interface circuit.
C. Some units don’t respond to the easy controller
1. You may have a break in the DMX cabling. Check the LED for the response of the master/ slave mode
signal.
2. Wrong DMX address in the unit. Set the proper address.
D. No response to the sound
1. Make sure the unit does not receive DMX signal.
2. Check microphone to see if it is good by tapping the microphone
E. One of the channels is not working well
1. The stepper motor might be damaged or the cable connected to the PCB is broken.
2. The motor’s drive IC on the PCB might be out of condition

16E
6. 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.
yClean with soft cloth using normal glass cleaning fluid.
yAlways dry the parts carefully.
yClean the external optics at least every 20 days. Clean the internal optics at least every 30/60 days.
