BATTERY PRECAUTIONS
8
Do Not Short Circuit the Battery:
Do not short circuit the battery. It generates a very high current which could cause the battery to
overheat, resulting in electrolyte gel leakage, harmful fumes, or explosion. The LIR tabs may easily
short-circuit by placing them on conductive surface. A short circuit may lead to heat build up and
damage of the battery. An appropriate circuitry with PCM is employed to protect accidental short
circuit of the battery pack.
Mechanical shock:
Dropping the unit, impact hit, bending, etc., may cause failure or shortened life of the LIR battery.
Battery connection:
• Direct soldering of wire leads or devices to the battery is strictly prohibited.
• Lead tabs with pre-soldered wiring shall be spot welded to the batteries. Direct soldering may
cause damage of components, such as separator and insulator, by heat build up.
Prevention of short circuit within a battery pack:
There is enough insulation layers between wiring and the batteries to provide extra safety protection.
The battery pack is constructed in a way that no short circuit will occur which may cause smoke or re.
Do No Disassemble the Batteries:
• Never disassemble the batteries as doing this may cause a internal short circuit in the battery,
which may lead to harmful fumes, re, explosion, or other problems.
• Electrolyte Gel is harmful and should not leak from the LIR battery. Should the electrolyte gel come
into contact with the skin or eyes, ush the area of contact immediately with fresh water and seek
medical attention immediately.
Do Not Expose the Battery to Heat or Fire:
Never incinerate or dispose of the batteries in re. This may cause an explosion, which would be very
dangerous.
Do Not Expose the Battery to water or liquids:
Never soak/drop the batteries in liquids such as water, seawater, drinks such as soft drinks, juices,
coee or other.
Battery Replacement:
For battery replacement please contact ADJ customer support [phone].
Do Not use a damaged Battery:
The battery could be damaged during shipping, caused by shock. Should the battery be found dam-
aged, including damages to the plastic casing of the battery, deformation of the battery package,
smelling of an electrolyte, or leakage of the electrolyte gel, or other, DO NOT use the battery. A battery
with a odor of electrolyte or a gel leakage should be placed away from re to avoid re or explosion.

BATTERY PRECAUTIONS
BATTERY STATUS & CHARGING
9
Battery Storage:
When storing the battery, it should be stored at room temperature, with a charge of at least 50%. We
recommend that during long periods of storage that the battery be charged every 6 months. Doing this
will prolong the life of the battery and will also make sure that the battery charge does not fall below
the 30% mark.
Other Chemical Reaction:
Because batteries utilize a chemical reaction, battery performance will deteriorate over time even if
stored for a long period of time without being used. In addition, if the various usage conditions such
as charge, discharge, ambient temperature, etc. are not maintained within the specied ranges, the
life expectancy of the battery maybe shortened or the device in which the battery is used may be
damaged by electrolyte gel leakage. If the batteries cannot maintain a charge for long periods of time,
even when they are charged correctly, this may indicate it is time to change the battery.
Battery Disposal:
Please dispose of battery according to local regulations.
Battery Status:
This function is used to check the life status of the battery.
Plug the xture in and press the MODE button until “bXXX” is displayed. “XXX” represents the current
battery life. The number that is displayed is the remaining battery life. If “b---” is displayed, it means
that you are running the unit on AC power. Do not allow the battery to fully die as this severely
shortens battery life.
NOTE: When the battery life is below 30% the battery percentage will ash. At 15% power the
xture will shut o.
NOTE: When using battery power, after 20 seconds of inactivity, the display will revert back to
the battery life display.
Battery Recharge: To recharge the battery, plug the supplied I.E.C. cord into the I.E.C. input on the
side of the unit and plug the other end into a matching power supply. It takes about 4 hours to reach
full charge (with the power o). The display will STOP ashing when the unit reaches 100% charge.
Note: When unplugging the unit from charging and then applying power via battery, there will
be a minimal charge drop.
For a faster recharge, turn the Load Setting to “O” and turn the battery “On”. See the Operating
Instructions section of this manual for detailed information.

DMX-512:DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal protocol used as a form of communication
between intelligent xtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions from the
controller to the xture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from xture to xture via the DATA
“IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX xtures (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
compliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several DMX xtures try to use
the shortest cable path possible. The order in which xtures are connected in a DMX line does not
inuence the DMX addressing. For example; a xture 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 xture 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 Element QA can be controlled
via DMX-512 protocol. The Element Hex has 5 DMX modes, please see pages 13 or 19 for the dierent
modes. The DMX address is set on the front panel of the Element QA. Your unit and your DMX controller
require a standard 3-pin XLR connector 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 pro 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.
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 connect 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
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 possibilities of erratic behavior.

Termination reduces signal errors and avoids signal
transmission problems and interference. It is always
advisable to connect a DMX terminal, (Resistance
120 Ohm 1/4 W) between PIN 2 (DMX-) and PIN 3
(DMX+) of the last xture. Figure 4
5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors. Some manufactures use 5-pin DMX-512 data cables for DATA
transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin DMX xtures may be implemented in a 3-pin DMX line. When
inserting standard 5-pin data cables in to a 3-pin line a cable adapter must be used, these adapters
are readily available at most electric stores. The chart below details a proper cable conversion.

All xtures should be given a DMX starting address when using a DMX controller, so the correct
xture responds to the correct control signal. This digital starting address is the channel number from
which the xture starts to “listen” to the digital control signal sent out from the DMX controller. The
assignment of this starting DMX address is achieved by setting the correct DMX address on the digital
control display on the xture.
You can set the same starting address for all xtures or a group of xtures, or set dierent addresses
for each individual xture. Setting all xtures to the same DMX address will cause all xtures to
react in the same way, in other words, changing the settings of one channel will aect all the xtures
simultaneously.
If you set each xture to a dierent DMX address, each unit will start to “listen” to the channel number
you have set, based on the quantity of DMX channels of each xture. That means changing the settings
of one channel will only aect the selected xture.
In the case of the Element Hex, when in 6 channel mode you should set the starting DMX address of
the rst unit to 1, the second unit to 7 (6 + 1), the third unit to 13 (7 + 6), and so on.

DMX Mode:
Operating through a DMX controller gives the user the freedom to create their own programs tai-
lored to their own individual needs. The Element Hex has 5 DMX modes: 6 channel mode, 7 channel
mode, 8 channel mode, 11 channel mode, and 12 channel mode. See the DMX Traits section of this
manual for each modes DMX traits. This function will allow you to control each individual xture’s
traits with a standard DMX 512 controller.
1. To run your xture in DMX mode press the MODE button until “d.XXX” is displayed. “XXX” rep-
resents the current displayed DMX address. Use the UP or DOWN buttons to select your desired
