Getting It Out Of The Box
Congratulations on your purchase of the G-Mix™ 200! Now that you’ve got your G-Mix™
200 (or hopefully more) , 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 o a switched circuit and cannot be run o a
rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer
channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch.
See the label on the xture or refer to the xture’s specications for more information.
The listed current rating is its average current draw under normal conditions. All xtures
must be connected to circuits with a suitable Ground (Earthing).

3. SETUP
Fuse Replacement
Remove the fuse holder from of its housing. Then take out the dam-
aged fuse from its holder and replace with exact same type of fuse.
Reattach the fuse holder, and then reconnect power.
Connecting A Bunch of G-Mix™ 200 Fixtures
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 dis-
tance 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
Before replacing the fuse, disconnect the power cord.
ALWAYS replace it with the same type and rating.

G-Mix™ 200 User Manual - Rev. C (c) 2019 Blizzard Lighting, LLC
Cable Connectors
Cables must have a male XLR connector on one end and a female XLR connec-
tor on the other end. (Duh!)
CAUTION: Do not allow contact between the common and the
xture’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, it’s no problem! You can simply use the in-
stalled 5-pin DMX input and/or output connections found on the back of your xture(s).
Conductor 3-Pin Female (Output) 5-Pin Male (Input)
Ground/Shield Pin 1 Pin 1
Data 1- (Primary Data Link) Pin 2 Pin 2
Data 1+ (Primary Data Link) Pin 3 Pin 3
Data 2- (Optional Secondary Data Link) Pin 4 Pin 4
Data 2+ (Optional Secondary Data Link) Pin 5 Pin 5
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 connector
(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.

G-Mix™ 200 User Manual - Rev. C (c) 2019 Blizzard Lighting, LLC
Fixture Linking (Master/Slave Mode)
1. Connect the (male) 3/5-pin connector side of the
DMX cable to the output (female) 3/5-pin connector
of the rst xture.
2. Connect the end of the cable coming from the
rst xture which will have a (female) 3/5-pin
connector to the input connector of the next xture
consisting of a (male) 3/5-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
require 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 xtures 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.

G-Mix™ 200 User Manual - Rev. C (c) 2019 Blizzard Lighting, LLC
Mounting Points
Overhead mounting requires extensive experience, which includes
calculating working load limits, knowledge of the installation material
being used, and periodic safety inspection of all installation material
and the xture. If you lack these qualications, do not attempt the
installation yourself. Improper installation can result in bodily injury.
Caution!
Please be aware, you should have a qualied electrician performing all
of your electrical connection needs.
Be sure to complete all rigging and installation procedures before
connecting the main power cord to the appropriate wall outlet.

G-Mix™ 200 User Manual - Rev. C (c) 2019 Blizzard Lighting, LLC
Clamp Mounting
This xture provides a mounting bracket assembly that secures the
bottom of the base, the “Omega Brackets,” and the safety cable
rigging point together. When mounting this xture to truss, be sure to
secure an appropriately rated clamp to the omega bracket using an
M12 screw tted through the center hole of the “omega bracket”.
Securing the Fixture
Regardless of the rigging option you choose for your xtures always be
sure to secure your xture with a safety cable. Be sure to only use the
designated rigging point found on the underside of the base assembly
for the safety cable.
1.) Clamp

5. APPENDIX
Keeping Your G-Mix™ 200 As Good As New
The xture you’ve received is a rugged, tough piece of pro lighting equip-
ment, 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 light output. Keeping the fans free of dust and debris will keep
the xture running cool and prevent damage from overheating.
In transit, keep the xtures in cases. You wouldn’t throw a prized guitar,
drumset, or other piece of expensive gear into a gear trailer without a case,
and similarly, you shouldn’t even think about doing it with your shiny new light
xtures.
Common sense and taking care of your xtures will be the single biggest thing
you can do to keep them running at peak performance and let you worry about
designing a great light show, putting on a great concert, or maximizing your cli-
ent’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 equipment 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 Authori-
zation (RA).
Don’t worry, this is easy. Just go to our website and open a support ticket at
www.blizzardlighting.com/support, and we’ll issue 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 responsibil-
ity, so pack it well!
Shipping Issues
Damage incurred in shipping is the responsibility of the shipper, and
must be reported to the carrier immediately upon receipt of the items.
Claims must be made within seven (7) days of receipt.
