Getting It Out Of The Box
Congratulations,aspiringcrimeghterand/orpsychedelicmusicacionado!Nowthat
you’ve got The Puck CSI™ Xtreme (or hopefully, Xtreme’s!), you should carefully unpack
the box and check the contents to ensure that all parts are present and in good condition.
If anything looks as if it has been damaged in transit, notify the shipper immediately and
keep the packing material for inspection. Again, please save the carton and all packing
materials.Ifaxturemustbereturnedtothefactory,itisimportantthatthexturebe
returned in the original factory box and packing.
Powering Up!
Allxturesmustbepowereddirectlyoffaswitchedcircuitandcannot be run off a
rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer
channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch.
AC Voltage Switch -Notallxtureshaveavoltageselectswitch,sopleaseverifythatthe
xtureyoureceiveissuitableforyourlocalpowersupply.Seethelabelonthextureor
refertothexture’sspecicationschartformoreinformation.Axture’slistedcurrent
ratingisitsaveragecurrentdrawundernormalconditions.Checkthextureordevice
carefully to make sure that if a voltage selection switch exists that it is set to the correct
line voltage you will use.
Warning! Verify that the voltage select switch on your unit matches the line
voltage applied. Damage to your xture may result if the line voltage applied does
not match the voltage indicated on the voltage selector switch. All xtures must
be connected to circuits with a suitable Ground (Earthing).

3. SETUP
Fuse Replacement
Withaatheadscrewdriver,wedgethe
fuse holder out of its housing. Remove the
damaged fuse from its holder and replace
with exact same type fuse. Insert the fuse
holder back in its place and reconnect
power.
Connecting A Bunch of Puck CSI™ Xtreme Flat LED PAR Cans
You will need a serial data link to run light shows using a DMX-512
controllerortorunshowsontwoormorexturessettosyncinmas-
ter/slave operating mode. The combined number of channels required
byallthexturesonaserialdatalinkdeterminesthenumberofx-
tures the data link can support.
Fixtures on a serial data link must be daisy chained in one single line.
Also,connectingmorethan32xturesononeserialdatalinkwithout
the use of a DMX optically-isolated splitter may result in deterioration
of the digital DMX signal.
The maximum recommended cable-run distance is 500 meters (1640
ft).Themaximumrecommendednumberofxturesonaserialdata
linkis32xtures.
Data/DMX Cabling
Tolinkxturestogetheryou’llneeddatacables.Youshouldusedata-
grade cables that can carry a high quality signal and are less prone to
electromagnetic interference.
Forinstance,Belden©9841meetsthespecicationsforEIARS-485
applications. Standard microphone cables will “probably” be OK, but
note that they cannot transmit DMX data as reliably over long distanc-
es. In any event, the cable should have the following characteristics:
2-conductor twisted pair plus a shield
Maximum capacitance between conductors – 30 pF/ft.
Maximum capacitance between conductor & shield – 55 pF/ft.
Maximum resistance of 20 ohms / 1000 ft.
Nominal impedance 100 – 140 ohms

Page 8
The Puck CSI Xtreme User Manual Rev. B Copyright (c) 2014 Blizzard Lighting, LLC
Cable Connectors
Cables must have a male XLR connector on one end and a female XLR
connector on the other end. (Duh!)
CAUTION:Donotallowcontactbetweenthecommonandthex-
ture’s chassis ground. Grounding the common can cause a ground
loop,andyourxturemayperformerratically.Testcableswithan
ohm meter to verify correct polarity and to make sure the pins are not
grounded or shorted to the shield or each other.
3-Pin??? 5-Pin??? Huh?!?
If you use a controller with a 5 pin DMX output connector, you will need to use a 5 pin to 3 pin adapter.
They are widely available over the internet and from specialty retailers If you’d like to build your own, the
chart below details a proper cable conversion:
Conductor 3-Pin Female
(Output)
5-Pin Male
(Input)
Ground/Shield Pin 1 Pin 1
DMX Data (-) Pin 2 Pin 2
DMX Data (+) Pin 3 Pin 3
Not Used. No Connection. No Connection.
Not Used. No Connection. No Connection.
Take It To The Next Level: Setting Up DMX Control
Step 1: Connect the male connector of the
DMX cable to the female connector (output)
on the controller.
Step 2: Connect the female connector of the
DMXcabletotherstxture’smaleconnec-
tor (input). Note: It doesn’t matter which
xtureaddressistherstoneconnected.
Werecommendconnectingthexturesin
terms of their proximity to the controller,
ratherthanconnectingthelowestxture
numberrst,andsoon.
Step 3:Connectotherxturesinthechain
from output to input as above. Place a DMX
terminatorontheoutputofthenalxture
to ensure best communication.

Fixture Linking (Master/Slave Mode)
1. Connect the (male) 3 pin connector side of the
DMX cable to the output (female) 3 pin connector of
therstxture.
2. Connect the end of the cable coming from the
rstxturewhichwillhavea(female)3pinconnec-
tortotheinputconnectorofthenextxturecon-
sisting of a (male) 3 pin connector. Then, proceed
to connect from the output as stated above to the
inputofthefollowingxtureandsoon.
A quick note: Often,
the setup for Master-
Slave and Standalone
operation requires that
therstxtureinthe
chain be initialized for
this purpose via either
settings in the control
panel or DIP-switches.
Secondarily,thextures
that follow may also re-
quire a slave setting.
Check the “Operating Adjustments” section in this manual for com-
pleteinstructionsforthistypeofsetupandconguration.
Mounting & Rigging
ThisxturemaybemountedinanySAFEpositionprovidedthereis
enough room for ventilation.
It is important never to obstruct the fan or vents pathway. Mount the
xtureusingasuitable“C”or“O”typeclamp.Theclampshouldbe
ratedtoholdatleast10xthexture’sweighttoensurestructuralsta-
bility. Do not mount to surfaces with unknown strength, and ensure
properly“rated”riggingisusedwhenmountingxutresoverhead.
Adjusttheangleofthexturebylooseningbothknobsandtiltingthe
xture.Afterndingthedesiredposition,retightenbothknobs.
• When selecting installation location, take into consideration lamp
replacement access (if applicable) and routine maintenance.
• Safety cables MUST ALWAYS be used.
•Nevermountinplaceswherethexturewillbeexposedtorain,
high humidity, extreme temperature changes or restricted ventilation.

USING THIS FIXTURE WITH THE wiCICLE® WIRELESS
DMX SYSTEM
In addition to the unbridled thrill you already re-
ceivedthersttimeyoupluggedinyourxture,
you’llbedelightedtoknowthatThisxturealso
works seamlessly with our wiCICLE®Wireless
DMX system, without additional power.
•ONLYxturesbearingthislogoarecertiedforusewiththewiCICLE®without
external power.
• Unauthorized modication and/or using the wiCICLE®with unap-
proved xtures may cause damage to the wiCICLE® or xture. UNDER
NO CIRCUMSTANCES IS BLIZZARD LIGHTING RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY
DAMAGE FROM SUCH OPERATION.
• Fixtures bearing the above logo MUST only use cable and connectors which
separate chassis/case ground from cable shielding. Cabling with the shield con-
nected to the connector’s case/chassis may cause malfunction and damage to
the wiCICLE®orxture.
• wiCICLE®transmitters have additional power requirements and there-
forecannotbepowereddirectlyfromthexture.Youwillneedtoutilize
the supplied AC/DC adaptor to drive wiCICLE®transmitters in your
system.

Each wiCICLE®acts as both a transmitter and a receiver, depending on whether
a DMX source is applied to the integral XLR connector. This is an extremely
powerful feature of the system, however, it also requires 1 piece of due dili-
gence, and that is the removal of extraneous DMX signals from your lighting rig
BEFORE proceeding.
SO: BEFORE DOING ANYTHING ELSE, YOU SHOULD DISABLE ANY
BUILT-IN PROGRAMS IN THE FIXTURES YOU WISH TO CONNECT AND/
OR SET THEM AS SLAVES PRIOR TO RETURNING THEM TO DMX MODE
(IF APPLICABLE). Most xtures contain a built-in automatic, sound
active or custom program which is designed to operate with the xture
NOT connected to a DMX chain.
Someoftheseprogramswillautomaticallyrununlessthextureissettoslave
mode.ThesexturestypicallysenseDMXautomaticallyandswitchtoDMX
mode upon receiving DMX signal (our Pucks do that!)
If you plug a wiCICLE®“receiver”intoanautosensingxturesetasa“mas-
ter, “chances are good that the wiCICLE®“receiver” will begin transmitting the
master program. Most times, this is undesirable, and taking the two seconds to
switch these programs off will solve a lot of ails.
Got that done? Good! Then let’s proceed!
1. Plug the wiCICLE®Receiverintothe“DMXIN”connectorofthextureand
verify it is receiving power (the STATUS LED should illuminate.)
2. Connect the AC/DC adaptor to the wiCICLE®Transmitter and verify it is re-
ceiving power (the STATUS LED should illuminate.)
3. Press the RECESSED SELECTOR BUTTON on the Transmitter to select the
operating channel group. (The system will store this setting for future use)
The 7-Color Status LED will change color to indicate the current channel group:
· GROUP 1: RED
· GROUP 2: GREEN
· GROUP 3: YELLOW
· GROUP 4: BLUE
· GROUP 5: VIOLET
· GROUP 6: CYAN
· GROUP 7: WHITE
4. Follow the same procedure on the Receiver to select the channel group.
5. Once both the transmitter and receiver(s) are both set to the same chan-
nel group, connect the transmitter to the DMX controller or the DMX out of a
xtureonyourDMXchain.
6. Once a DMX signal is provided to the transmitter, the status LED will blink
RED slowly until communication is established with the receiver. The status
LEDonthereceiver(s)willashGREEN slowly until communication is estab-
lished.
7. Once the clearest channel is auto-selected, the status LEDs will blink quickly
on both the transmitter and receiver. NOTE: The color of the LED DURING
operation does not indicate channel group, instead it indicates whether the
unit is transmitting or receiving. That’s It!
NOTE: “GROUP” number
also corresponds to the
“GROUP” setting on our
LightCaster™wireless DMX
Transceiver.

5. APPENDIX
Keeping Your Puck CSI™Xtreme As Good As New
Thextureyou’vereceivedisarugged,toughpieceofprolightingequipment,andaslong
as you take care of it, it will take care of you. That said, like anything, you’ll need to take
careofitifyouwantittooperateasdesigned.Youshouldabsolutelykeepthexture
clean, especially if you are using it in an environment with a lot of dust, fog, haze, wild
animals, wild teenagers or spilled drinks.
Cleaning the optics routinely with a suitable glass cleaner will greatly improve the quality of

show, putting on a great concert, or maximizing your client’s satisfaction and “wow factor.”
That’s what it’s all about, after all!
Returns (Gasp!)
We’ve taken a lot of precautions to make sure you never even have to worry about sending
a defective unit back, or sending a unit in for service. But, like any complex piece of equip-
ment designed and built by humans, once in a while, something doesn’t go as planned. If
youndyourselfwithaxturethatisn’tbehavinglikeagoodlittlextureshould,you’ll
need to obtain a Return Authorization (RA).
Don’t worry, this is easy. Just send an email to [email protected], and we’ll is-
sue you an RA. Then, you’ll need to send the unit to us using a trackable, pre-paid freight
method.WesuggestusingUSPSPriorityorUPS.Makesureyoucarefullypackthexture
for transit, and whenever possible, use the original box & packing for shipping.
Whenreturningyourxtureforservice,besuretoincludethefollowing:
1.) Your contact information (Name, Address, Phone Number, Email address).
2.) The RA# issued to you
3.) A brief description of the problem/symptoms.
Wewill,atourdiscretion,repairorreplacethexture.Pleaserememberthatanyshipping
damage which occurs in transit to us is the customer’s responsibility, so pack it well!
