Thank you for purchasing the LiveLED™ 100 from Advanced Lighting Systems, Inc. This LED porta-
ble luminaire has been engineered and designed to be simple to operate, energy efficient and reliable.
The LiveLED 100 is designed for architectural, entertainment and other applications where white and
color light washing is required. The LiveLED 100 is a digital, full spectrum capable source comprised
of 39.6 watts of Blue LEDs, 39.6 watts of Green LEDs, and 22 watts of Red LEDs. The LiveLED 100
features an integrated power supply and a DMX control panel with XLR in and out connectors.
This manual is intended to provide basic information for the use, installation, operation
and maintenance of the LiveLED 100.

1.0 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
2.0 Placement & Mounting Requirements
The LiveLED 100, is designed to operate in an indoor or outdoor environment. The proper voltage
required at the site is 110 - 240 VAC, 60/50 Hz. The unit draws 1 Amp at 120 volts. The LiveLED
100 is yoke mounted and is designed for operation in any orientation allowed by the yoke. The
LiveLED 100 must be adequately ventilated. Recommended operating temperatures are from -30
degrees F (-35 degrees C) to 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). The illuminator should be placed with
6-8” inches clearance on the sides and 12” inches of back clearance if unit is placed in front of an-
other unit. When more than one LiveLED is installed in the same location, provide each unit with the
same minimum clearances as noted above. Proper ventilation is absolutely necessary to maintain
LED life.

3.0 General Operating Instructions
With the unit properly installed, plug the illuminator power inlet cable into a suitable AC power
source. The LED modules will immediately light. The DMX color control system will cycle and then
stop on specific colors relative to whatever control settings the unit is currently set to. Unless oth-
erwise specified, units are shipped with color controls not preset. Color control setup is required to
achieve desired colors and effects. All color and effects control is activated using the 3 rotary knobs
on the unit (see control panel picture). The unit may operated as a stand alone single unit, in master/
slave configuration with other units or remotely using USITT DMX 512 control protocol generated by
an external unit. Consult the instructions for the DMX controller or other signal processor that will be
used for programming instructions. The DMX signal can be delivered through either of the XLR con-
nectors located on the bottom left of the illuminator (see control panel picture). The remaining con-
nector can be used as an output signal (in the case of a daisy chain) or left un-used (terminated).

DMX Rotary Control
Knobs correspond to
DMX code as follows:
CONTROL PANEL
Red LED light indicates DMX system has power.
Green indicates DMX system has signal.
Flashing Green indicates DMX operation is being executed
STAND ALONE OPERATION
To operate the LiveLED 100 as a stand alone unit, rotate the knobs on the Control Panel to activate
the preset program desired (see preset program table below).
MASTER/SLAVE OPERATION
The master / slave control allows multiple units to operate in synchronization without an external con-
troller. Using 3 pin XLR cables, link the units together to the XLR cables on the rear of each LiveLED.
Either connector may be used as either the in or out. Choose a unit to be the Master. Set the rotary
knobs of the Master to the desired preset program (see preset program table below). Set all other
Slave units to 001. Be sure none of the units are connected to any other controller or DMX system.
When the system power is turned on, all Slave units will follow the Master. Check the green indicator
light on the control panel of the Slave units to insure that units are receiving a DMX signal from the
Master unit.
Note: The rotary knob next to the red indicator light is the first digit for the preset programs (see
control panel picture).

5.0 DMX Control
If the unit is receiving a DMX signal, the green light on the control panel will illuminate.
Setting the Base DMX Address
As with all products that are DMX controlled, the LiveLED 100 requires that DMX channels be set
to specific “addresses” in order that the unit will respond to a control unit. Using the adjustment
knobs, set the desired DMX address on any address from 001 - 512.
The LiveLED 100 uses 5 DMX channels on a control board.
CHANNEL 1 - Red
CHANNEL 2 – Green
CHANNEL 3 – Blue
CHANNEL 4 – Preprogrammed effects
CHANNEL 5 – Preprogrammed effects

6.0 Quick Settings of Preset Colors & Effects (Cont.)
The DMX program allows a DMX controller to have complete control of color and effects. For
custom cues, the programmer may use channels 1 through 5.
If DMX controlled pre-programmed sequences is required, the programmer should use a cue loop
to send regular updates of the DMX values to the other unit(s). This will insure that all addressed
SAVI™ Flare luminaires remain in sync with each other.
7.0 Resetting the DMX Programs:
Set the adjustment knob to a value of: 000 and disconnect the power (or turn the fixtures off). The
fixtures will then reset themselves.

9.0 Maintenance of Luminaire
8.0 Troubleshooting
Prior to any maintenance or service of the unit, always disconnect power cord and allow unit to
cool for at least five (5) minutes.
Periodic Cleaning:
Clean the LiveLED at least once every 6 months. Dust exterior with a soft cloth. Make certain that
lenses are free of obstructions and debris.
Fuse Replacement
In the event that the fuses need to be replaced, use only 250 volt 5 amp AC type of fuse. Turn the
power OFF; remove the power cord from the power outlet. Locate the fuse holder on the rear of
the fixture. Remove and replace the fuses if needed. Plug in the power cord and the unit is ready
for continued operation.
