• There are safety cord holes at the bottom of the base
of a projector. In view of safety, please run the safety
cord supplied through the safety cord holes for safety
support.
• Before any installation, maintenance and cleaning
work, please ensure the projector is disconnected from
power mains.
• Aer stable operation under normal situation , its
temperature is 80°C.
• While the lamp is stricken for the rst time, there will
be smoke and strange smell. It’s normal and does not
mean the projector has some defects.
• While it running, don’t touch the metal housing to avoid
being burned!
• Do not mount the projector directly on inammable
surface.
• Do not project the beam straightly on combustible
items and the minimum distance between the projector
and illuminated items is 8m.
• A projector should be installed with good ventilation
and the minimum distance between the projector and
walls is 50cm. At the same time, please ensure the fans
and air inlets and outlets are workable.
• Do not let the front lens under sunlight or other strong
light sources at any angle, otherwise the danger of re
can be caused by the focused beam by the lens inside a
projector.
• The product meets The General Technical
Requirements and Standards for Recycle and Use Of.
• Expired Appliance and Electronic Products.
• When the product meets disposal standards and needs

4. INSTALLATION
RIGGING
1. Use M12 bolt to x the clamp (1) into the omega holder (3), run the bolt through the holder’s holes.
2. Push 2 quick-lock fasteners (4) into holes at the bottom of the base, x them and tighten them clockwise.
3.Run safety cord (2) through holes at the bottom of the base.
WARNING!
THE PROJECTOR MUST BE LIFTED OR CARRIED BY THE HANDLES INSTEAD OF CLAMPS.
FOR SAFETY THE SAFETY CORD SHOULD AFFORD 10 TIMES THE PROJECTOR’S WEIGHT.
A projector can be placed on the stage oor directly or mounted on a truss at any direction without
impacting its performance. Please use a safety cord, which can support 10 times the weight of the projector,
while mounting it on the truss. The safety cord should be used with magazine with a lock. Just as the gures
below, please run the safety cord through the holes at the bottom of the base and around the truss. Use a
safety cord, which can support 10 times the weight of the projector, while mounting it on the truss.
The safety cord should be used with magazine with a lock. Just as the gures below, please run the safety
cord through the holes at the bottom of the base and around the truss.
1. Clamps.
2. Safety Wire.
3. Omega Holder.
4. Quick-lock fastener.
5. Attachement point.
Use the spanner supplied with a projector to help installation.

It must use secondary safety accessory like appropriate net. The structures of the secondary accessory must
ensure that while malfunction happens, the installed parts won’t fall to the ground.
While rigging, mounting or maintaining, the projector mustn’t be placed in the areas listed hereinaer: the
bridge, high work areas or other dangerous areas.
The operator of the projector or its related safety items must be accepted by safety experts before rst
launching or rerunning aer any replacements or repairing.
The operator must ensure a test before acceptance every 4 years and the related safety measures and
installation accepted by experts.
The operator must ensure the related safety measures and its installation must be approved by the
technicians every year.
The projector may be installed in places under which people may walk by or sit. Important! Installations
in high places requires wide experience, including but not limited to load limit calculation, the installing
materials needed and regular inspection of installing materials and the projectors. If lacking the
qualications, please don’t try installation by yourself, but seek help from professionals using designated
liing gears. Abnormal installation may cause body harm or property
damages.
The projectors must be installed in places where people can’t reach. If they are removed from ceiling or
high places, professional truss must be used. It is forbidden to let any projector move freely in a room aer
installation.
Note: Device falling down can cause heavy body harm! If you have any questions about its safety, don’t
install any projector!
Before installation, please ensure mounting areas can endure 10 times the weight of a project at least.
5. POWER/CONTROL CONNECTION
1 POWER CONNECTION
2 CONNECTION METHOD
Connection method:
• L (Live) Brown wire
• E (Earth) Yellow / Green bi-color wire
• N (Neutral) Blue wire
The xture has 3-pin XLR connectors for DMX data
input and output as shown below.
Connection between the console and xture, and
between xtures must be made with 2 core screened
The voltage and frequency of the power source must
be in compliance with the ones marked on the xture.
It is strongly recommended that each xture are to
be connected to the power source separately so that
they can be switched on / o individually.
DMX signal cable. Maximum connecting distance of
signal cable is 150 meters. Additional DMX512
signal-amplier is recommended for longer distance.

3 DMX CONTROL CONNECTION
Connection between controller and projector and between one projector and another must be made with a
twin-screened cable, with each wire having at least a 0.5mm in diameter.
Connection to and from the projector is via cannon 5 pin (which are included with the projector) or 5 pin XLR
plugs and sockets. The XLR’s are connected as shown in the gure above.
Note: care should be taken to ensure that none of the pins touch the metallic body of the plug or each other.
XLR plugs and sockets mustn’t be connected in any way other than mentioned in the above gure.
The XR330BWS accepts digital control signals in protocol DMX512 (1990).
Connect the controller’s DMX output to the rst xture’s DMX input, and connect the rst xture’s DMX output
to the second xture’s DMX input and connect the rest xtures in the same way.
Eventually connect the last xture’s DMX output to a DMX terminator as shown in the gure below.
4 DMX TERMINATOR
In the Controller mode, at the last xture in the chain, the DMX output has to be connected with a DMX
terminator. This prevents electrical noise from disturbing and corrupting the DMX control signals.
The DMX terminator is simply an XLR connector with a 120 (ohm) resistor connected across pins 2 and 3, which
is then plugged into the output socket on the last projector in the chain. The connections are illustrated below.

1. The sequence of lamp striking: Power on→lamp striking by controller(advised not to strike lamp via power
on), the sequence of lamp o: lamp o by controller→mains power shut o (advised not to turn o lamp by
shutting o mains power).
2. Within 1 min aer lamp striking, it shouldn’t re-strike it frequently. ONLY more than 10 min aer the projector
is cooled aer lamp o, can the lamp be re-stricken again.
3. Within 5 min aer lamp striking, it can’t be turned o. During the lamp striking process, it’s forbidden to turn
o lamp via shutting o mains power, but via controller. More than 5 min aer the projector is cooled aer lamp
o, can the mains power be shut o.
4. The projector is advised not to point to the same point for long time, i.e., it shouldn’t be used for long time at
a xed angle.
5. The projector is advised not to use double colors for long time, i.e., it shouldn’t use 2 or more colors for long
time.
6. The projector is advised not to keep shutters closed while lamp on for long time, i.e., it should be less than 1
hr aer shutters closed aer lamp on. It is advised not to use lamp half power function for long time.
