Notice: Be sure to follow gures two and three when making your own
cables. Do not use the ground lug on the XLR connector. Do not con-
nect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield
conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding
the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behavior.

Special Note: Line Termination. When longer runs of cable are
used, you may need to use a terminator on the last unit to avoid erratic
behavior. A terminator is a 110-120 ohm 1/4 watt resistor which is con-
nected 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 possibilities of erratic
behavior.

5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors. Some manufactures use 5-pin XLR
connectors for DATA transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin XLR xtures
may be implemented in a 3-pin XLR DMX line. When inserting stan-
dard 5-pin XLR connectors in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be
used, these adaptors are readily available at most electric stores. The

Power Supply: The ADJ UV LED Bar20 IR contains a automatic volt-
age switch, which will auto sense the voltage when it is plugged into
the power source. With this switch there is no need to worry about the
correct power voltage, this unit can be plugged in anywhere.
DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal pro-
tocol used as a form of communication 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 trav-
els from fixture to fixture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR ter-
minals 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
dierent manufactures to be linked together and operate from a single
controller, as long as all xtures and the controller are DMX compli-
ant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several
DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. 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):
The UV LED Bar20 IR can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The UV
LED Bar20 IR has 3 DMX channel modes; 1 channel mode, 2 channel
mode, & 3 channel mode. The DMX address is set on the rear panel of the
UV LED Bar20 IR. Your unit and your DMX controller require a approved
DMX-512 110 Ohm Data cable for data input and data output (Figure
1). We recommend Accu-Cable DMX cables. 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
sound and lighting stores). Your cables should be
made with a male and female XLR connector on
either end of the cable. Also remember that DMX
cable must be daisy chained and cannot be split.

The display will lock after 30 seconds, press the MODE
button for 3 seconds to unlock.
LED Display On/Off: To make the display stay ON all of the time
press the MODE until “ds-X” is displayed. Press the UP button so
that “ds-1” is displayed. The LED display will stay ON all of the time.
To make the display turn OFF after 10 seconds, press the UP button
so that “ds-2” is displayed. When the LED display turns OFF after 10
seconds, press any button for at least 3 seconds to turn the display
on again.
DMX Mode:
Operating through a DMX controller give the user the freedom to cre-
ate their own programs tailored to their own individual needs. The UV
LED Bar20 IR has 3 DMX modes: 1 Channel Mode, 2 Channel Mode,
and 3 Channel Mode.
1. This function will allow you to control each individual fixture’s
traits with a DMX controller.
2. Use the MODE button to scroll through the DMX Channel modes.
The Channel modes are listed below:
• To run the 1 Channel Mode, press the MODE button until “1XXX”
is displayed. “XXX” is the current displayed DMX address. Use
the UP or DOWN buttons to find your desired DMX address.
• To run the 2 Channel Mode, press the MODE button until “2XXX”
is displayed. “XXX” is the current displayed DMX address. Use
the UP or DOWN buttons to find your desired DMX address.
• To run the 3 Channel Mode, press the MODE button until “3XXX”
is displayed. “XXX” is the current displayed DMX address. Use
the UP or DOWN buttons to find your desired DMX address.
3. Once you have found your desired DMX Channel mode and
address, plug in the fixture via the XLR connections to any
standard DMX controller.
4. Please see pagess 12-13 for DMX values and traits.
UV LED Bar20 IR Operating Instructions
Static Mode:
In this mode the UV light will remain static. You can adjust the intensity
in this mode as well.
1. Plug the fixture in and press the MODE button until “4XXX” is
displayed.
2. Press the UP or DOWN buttons to adjust the intensity of the light.
Strobing:
In this mode you can choose one of 3 shows to run or you can

1. Plug the fixture in and press the MODE button until “5-XX” is
displayed. “XX” represents the current strobe style.
2. Using the UP or DOWN buttons select one of the three programs.
If you want to run sound active mode, press the UP or DOWN
buttons until “S-So” is displayed.
3. To adjust the speed of your selected program, press the MODE
button once more so that “SP-X” is displayed. Now use the UP or
DOWN buttons to adjust the speed. One being the slowest, nine
being the fastest.
Dimming Curve:
This is used to set the dimming curve used with DMX mode. See
page 13 for the dimming curves diagram. The dimming curves are in
the order they appear in the diagram.
1. Plug the fixture in and press the MODE button until “dr-X” is
displayed. This is the dimmer setting. “X” represents the current
dimming setting.
2. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to find your desired dimming
curve. Press the MODE button when you are finished.
