5. How To Control The Unit
You can operate the unit in four ways:
1. By master/slave built-in preprogram function
2. By DMX controller
3. BY VD-T
4. BY XP-W512 RX (Only for BW-54-10FC
Ⅱ
WT RL)
VD-T is a specially designed handy setup tool for all Visio integral fixtures and Controllers.
By connecting VD-T to any fixture via XLR, you can easily setup DMX Address, Channel
Modes, White Balance, Manual Colors, and Fade Speed functions. If you use VD-T to
10B

control the unit, you can follow User Manual of VD-T.
5.1
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, synchronized light show. This function is good when you want an instant
show. In Master/Slave mode, the first fixture whose DMX input jack has with nothing
connect will be master automatically, set other units to slave mode.
5.2
DMX Controller
Use universal DMX controller to control the units, you have to set DMX address from 1 to
512 channel so that the units can receive DMX signal.
Press the MENU button up to when the is showing on the display. Press ENTER
button and the display will blink. Use DOWN and UP button to change the DMX512
address. Once the address has been selected, press and keep ENTER button pressed up
to when the display stops blinking or storing automatically 8 seconds later. To go back to
the functions without any change press the MENU button again.
Please refer to the following diagram to address your DMX512 channel for the first 4 units：

5.3 DMX 512 Configuration
12B

13B

5.4 DMX512 Connection
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. 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.

glass-cleaning liquid or distilled water.
Wash the housing with a soft brush or sponge and a mild, non-abrasive washing
detergent.
Remove smoke and other wastes by a cotton towel dampened with isopropyl alcohol.
Be careful when cleaning the components.
Always dry the parts carefully by a clean, soft, non-scratching towel or by compressed air.
Maintenance and service operations are only to be carried out by a qualified perso
DANGER!
