IP RATING
An IP rated lighting fixture is commonly installed in outdoor environments and has been designed
with an enclosure that effectively protects the ingress (entry) of external foreign objects such as dust
and water. The Ingress Protection (IP) rating system is commonly expressed as “IP” followed by two
numbers (i.e. IP65), where the numbers define the degree of protection. The first digit (Foreign Bodies
Protection) indicates the extent of protection against particles entering the fixture, while the second
digit (Water Protection) indicates the extent of protection against water entering the fixture.
An IP65 rated lighting fixture, such as this one, is dust tight, and protected against low pres-
sure water jets from any direction.

POTENTIAL INTERNAL FIXTURE DAMAGE FROM EXTERNAL SOURCES OF LIGHT BEAMS
External sources of light beams from direct sunlight, lighting moving head fixtures, and lasers which
are focused directly towards the exterior housing and/or penetrate the front lens opening of ADJ light-
ing fixtures can cause severe internal damage, including burning of optics, dichroic color filters, glass
and metal gobos, prisms, animation wheels, frost filters, irises, shutters, motors, belts, wiring, dis-
charge lamps, and LEDs.
This issue is not unique to ADJ lighting fixtures, but rather it is a common issue with lighting fixtures
from all manufacturers. Although there is no true way to completely prevent this issue from hap-
pening, the guidelines below can reduce the risk of any potential damage if followed. Contact ADJ
Service for more details.
DO NOT EXPOSE THE FIXTURE AND/OR FRONT LENS OPENING TO LIGHT BEAMS FROM
DIRECT SUNLIGHT, OTHER LIGHTING OR MOVING HEAD FIXTURES, AND LASERS DURING
UNPACKING, INSTALLATION, USE, AND EXTENDED IDLE TIMES OUTDOORS. DO NOT FOCUS
A LIGHT BEAM FROM ONE LIGHTING FIXTURE DIRECTLY TOWARDS ANOTHER.

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 proto-
col 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 control-
ler 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.
Please be aware that not all RDM devices support all RDM features, and therefore it is important
to check beforehand to ensure that the equipment that you are considering includes all of the features
that you require.

DMX SETUP
DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal protocol used as a form of communi-
cation 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 xtures 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 device can be controlled via
DMX-512 protocol, and features multiple DMX channel modes. Your unit and your DMX controller
require a 3-pin or 5-pin XLR connector for data input and data output. 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 professional 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.
Special Note: Line Termination. When longer runs of cable are used, you may need to use a termi-
nator 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 decrease the chances of erratic behavior.

20
DMX SETUP
DMX ADDRESSING
All fixtures should be given a DMX starting address when operating with a DMX controller, in order
to ensure that 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 starting DMX address is configured by setting the correct DMX address on
the control panel display on the fixture.
You can set the same starting address for multiple fixtures, or set different addresses for each indi-
vidual fixture. Setting multiple fixtures to the same DMX address will cause all those fixtures to react
in the same way. In this case, please note that 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 set-
tings of one channel will only affect the selected fixture.
As an example, when operating this device in 36 channel mode, you should set the starting DMX
address of the first unit to 1, the second unit to 37 (1 + 36), the third unit to 73 (1 + 36 + 36), and so
on. (See the chart below for more details.)
Channel Mode Unit 1 Address Unit 2 Address Unit 3 Address Unit 4 Address
36 Channels 1 37 73 109
50 Channels 1 51 101 151
57 Channels 1 58 115 172
