4. How to Control the Unit
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
You do not need to turn the unit off when you change the DMX address, the new DMX address
setting will take effect immediately.
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 and select (random show) or
(show 1) or… or (show 12) mode. Any other units will have to be set in slave mode
and select (normal) or (2-light show) mode.
2-light show
In (slave mode), means the unit works normally and means 2-light show.
In order to create a great light show, you can set on the second unit to get contrast
movement to each other.
4.2 Easy CA-8 Controller
The easy CA-8 remote control is used only in master/slave mode. By connecting to
the 1/4” jack socket of the first unit. You will find that the remote control in the first
unit will control all the other units for Stand by, Function and Mode selection.

6. DMX Connection
1. The last units DMX cable has to be terminated with a 120 ohm 1/4W resistor between pin
2(DMX-) and pin 3(DMX+) of a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last unit.
2. 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.
3. The DMX output and input connectors are pass-through type to maintain the DMX circuit,

16B
even when one of the units’ power is disconnected.
4. Each fixture 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).
5. The end of the DMX 512 system should be terminated to reduce signal errors.
7. 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.
B. Not responding to DMX controller
1. DMX LED should be on. If not, check DMX connectors and cables to see if link properly.
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 on connectors.
4. Try to another DMX controller.
5. Check if the DMX cables run near or run alongside high voltage cables that may cause
interference to DMX circuits.
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 correct address.
D. 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.
3. Make sure the fixture is not set into Blackout mode

8. Fixture Cleaning
The cleaning of external 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 fixture’s optics.
Clean with soft cloth using normal glass cleaning fluid.
Always dry the parts carefully.
Clean the external optics at least every 30 days.
