With this feature you can connect the xtures to one another
using the PowerCON input and output sockets. The quantity
that can be connected is 3 xtures maximum for 120V and 5 x-
tures maximum for 240V. After the maximum xtures has been
reached you will need to use a new power outlet. They must be
the same xtures. DO NOT mix xtures.

The Illusion Dotz 4.4 is fully operational in two dierent mounting
positions, hanging upside-down from a ceiling or set on a at level
surface. To avoid internal damage to the unit, never mount the unit on
its side. Be sure this xture is kept at least 0.5m away from any am-
mable materials (decoration etc.). Always use and install the supplied
safety cable as a safety measure to prevent accidental damage and/
or injury in the event the clamp fails (see next page). Never use the
carrying handles for secondary attachment.
Illusion Dotz 4.4 Mounting
When installing the unit, the trussing or area of installation must be
able to hold 10 times the weight without any deformation. When
installing the unit must be secured with a secondary safety attach-
ment, e.g. and appropriate safety cable. Never stand directly below
the unit when mounting, removing, or servicing the unit.
Overhead mounting requires extensive experience, including calculat-
ing working load limits, installation material being used, and perodic
safety inspection of all installation material and unit. If you lack these
qualications, do not attempt the installation yourself.
These installaiton should be checked by a skilled person once a year.

Illusion Dotz 4.4 Handling Precautions

ADJ Products, LLC - www.adj.com - Illusion Dotz 4.4 Instruction Manual Page 8
Screw one clamp each via a M12 screw and nut onto the
Omega holders. Insert the quick-lock fasteners of the rst
Omega holder into the respective holes on the bottom of the
Illusion Dotz 4.4. Tighten the quick-lock fasteners fully clock-
wise. Install the second Omega holder. Pull the safety-cable
through the holes on the bottom of the base and over the truss-
ing system or a safe xation spot. Insert the end in the carabine
and tighten the safety screw.
Illusion Dotz 4.4 Mounting
NOTICE: The suitable enviromental temperature for this light-
ing xture is between -25˚ C to 45˚ C. Do not place this lighting
xture in an enviroment where the temperatures are under or
above the temperatures stated above. This will allow the xture
to run at its best and help prolong the xture life.
ADJ Products, LLC - www.adj.com - Illusion Dotz 4.4 Instruction Manual Page 9
Power Supply: The ADJ Illusion Dotz 4.4 contains a electronic volt-
age switch, which will auto sense the voltage when it is plugged into
the power source. With the electronic ballast you do not need to worry
about wall voltage, this unit can be plugged in anywhere.
DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal pro-
tocol used by most lighting and controller manufactures as a form of
communication between intelligent fixtures and controllers. A DMX
controller sends DMX data instructions from the controller to the fix-
ture. 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 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 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. Therefore, the first fixture controlled
by the controller could be the last fixture in the chain. 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 and Master/Slave
Operation): The Illusion Dotz 4.4 can be controlled via DMX-512 pro-
tocol. The Illusion Dotz 4.4 can be either a 12, 14, or 59 channel DMX
unit. The DMX address is set electronically using the controls on the
front panel of the unit. 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 stan-
dard 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

Figure 1

ADJ Products, LLC - www.adj.com - Illusion Dotz 4.4 Instruction Manual Page 11ADJ Products, LLC - www.adj.com - Illusion Dotz 4.4 Instruction Manual Page 10
remember that DMX cable must be daisy chained and cannot be split.
Illusion Dotz 4.4 Set Up
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.

1. On your DMX controller set the DMX value of Channel 1 to the
value “7”.
2. Now set the DMX value of Channel 2 to the value “7” to adjust the
starting address between 1 and 255. To adjust the address between
256 and 511 set Channel 2 to the value “8” .
3. Set the DMX value of Channel 3 to your desired starting address.
This will take about 20 seconds before the unit accepts the new DMX
address.
EXAMPLE: If you want the address to be 57, you must rst set the
address that is currently assingned to the unit. Then set Channel 1’s
Illusion Dotz 4.4 System Menu Illusion Dotz 4.4 System Menu
