7. Troubleshooting
Followingareafewcommonproblemsthatcan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.
B.NotrespondingtoDMXcontroller
1. DMXLEDshouldbeon.Ifnot,checkDMXconnectorsandcablestoseeiflinkedcorrectly.
2. IftheDMXLEDisonbutnoresponsechecktheaddresssettingsandDMXpolarity.
3. IfyouhaveintermittentDMXsignalproblemscheckthecablesandconnectors.
4. TryanotherDMXcontroller.
C.Noresponsetothesound
1. Makesuretheunitissetintothecorrectmode.
2. Checkthemicrophonetoseeifitisgoodbytappingit.
8. FixtureCleaning
Thecleaning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agreateraccumulationofdirtontheunit’soptics.
Cleanwithsoftclothusingnormalglasscleaningfluidormildsoapywater.
Alwaysdrythepartscarefully.
Cleantheexternalopticsatleastevery30days.

thattheyalsoreceivethisinstructionbooklet.
Unpackandcheckcarefullythereisnotransportationdamagebeforeusingtheunit.
Beforeoperating,ensurethatthevoltageandfrequencyofpowersupplymatchthepower
requirementsoftheunit.
It’simportanttogroundtheyellow/greenconductortoearthinordertoavoidelectricshock.
Theunitisforindooruseonly.Useonlyinadrylocation.

Installation:
Theunitshouldbemountedviaitsscrewholesonthebracket.Alwaysensurethattheunitis
firmlyfixedtoavoidvibrationandslippingwhileoperating.Makesurethatthestructuretowhich
youareattachingtheunitissecureandisabletosupportaweightof10timesoftheunit’s
weight.Alsoalwaysuseasafetycablethatcanhold12timesoftheweightoftheunitwhen
installingthefixture.
Theequipmentmustbeinstalledbyprofessionals.Itmustbeinstalledinaplacewhereisoutof
thereachofpeopleandnoonecanpassbyorunderit.

Youcanoperatetheunitinthreeways:
1. Master/slavebuilt‐inpreprogramfunction
2. Easycontroller(optionalCA‐8)
3. UniversalDMXcontroller
4.1Master/SlaveBuiltInPreprogrammedFunction
