E. FIXTURE CLEANING
The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be
carried out periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on
the environment in which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or particularly dirty
surroundings can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the unit’s optics.
•Clean with a soft cloth using normal glass cleaning products.
•Always dry the parts carefully.
•Clean the external optics at least once every 20 days. Clean the internal
optics at least every 30/60 days.

( 3 ) By easy controller CA-6
The easy remote control is used only in master/slave mode. By connecting
to the 1/4” microphone jack of the first unit (its DMX input plug is not used), you
will find that the remote control on the first unit will control all the other units for
stand by, Strobe/Next and Fast/Slow function.
1. STAND BY : Stand by and blackout all the unit.
2. STROBE/NEXT : Press the button and keep pressed
up, when the unit is in fast mode, it will strobe by sound.
Strobe function is only effective while the button is held
down. It has three strobe modes. If the unit was in slow
mode, you can select the next color and gobo. It will
change ten colors and then change one gobo.
3. FAST/SLOW : When the led light off, it is in FAST
Mode. The unit movement by sound activated. If the led
light on, it is in SLOW mode, the unit movement slowly.

( 2 ) Preprogram functions
DMX-100 can be linked together as master/slave in 2 or 4 channels and run
by built in preprogrammed chase sequences by sound activation. When sound
stops, all the lights will shut down (blackout) immediately and then the bulb will
turn off 15 seconds later. Please refer to the unit dipswitch-setting table for how
to set the dipswitches to achieve master/slave linking.
•In master/slave mode, the dipswitch 10 must be on of the master unit.
DMXS/DMXB can be linked together as master/slave in daisy chain in
linkage as many units as required and run by built in preprogrammed chase
sequences automatically or by sound activation. Not need to set the
dipswitches in master/slave mode.
When linking the PANTHER and the JAGUAR in stand-alone mode, the
JAGUAR must be used as the master head.
＊2-light show
Dipswitch 10 “off” means the unit works normally and “on” means inversion. In
order to creating a great light show, you can set dip switch 10 “on” on any unit
that is linking to the master unit to get contrast movement to each other, even if
you have two units only. Dipswitch 10 on the first unit is no use in the DMX linking,
as it is the master unit that operates the light show.

A. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Please read the enclosed instructions carefully as they include important
points about safety for the installation, usage and maintenance of the unit.
•Please keep this booklet with the unit for future consultation. If you sell the unit
to another user, be sure that the new user also receives this instruction booklet
thus giving them the necessary information about the use and general
warnings regarding the unit.
•Before the initial start-up, please unpack and carefully check all components in
case any damage may have occurred during shipping.
•Locate a suitable spot for your device where there is good ventilation. Also,
make sure that no ventilating fans or slots are blocked.
•Protect our environment! Please dispose of the packing boxes properly.
•The electrical work that is necessary for installation must done by qualified
personnel.
•Always remember to unplug the unit from the main power before any service is
done. Do not open the unit. There are no serviceable parts inside.
•It is very important to ground the yellow/green conductor to earth in order to
meet regulations for safety.
•Check the surrounding area and make sure there are no flammable liquids, water
or metal objects that could enter the fixture. If a foreign object enters the unit,
immediately disconnect the main power. Also, place the fixture in a well-
ventilated room at about 15 cm from the walls.
•Do not touch any wires during operation, as high voltage is hazardous.
•In the event of serious operating problems, stop using the unit immediately.
Never try to repair the unit yourself. Repairs carried out by unqualified
personnel can lead to damage or malfunction. Please contact the nearest
authorized Technical Assistance Center. Always use genuine spare parts.

üA DMX512 system requires a controller, lighting equipment and cable. These
are connected together in a “daisy chain” with the terminator at the end. The
cable cannot be branched or split to a “Y” cable.
üThe terminator requires a 90-120 Ohm 1/4 Watt resistor soldered between two
signal cables.
üThe DMX512 uses a very high-speed signal. Inadequate or damaged cables,
bad solder joints or corroded connectors can easily distort the signal and shut
down the system. A reliable DMX512 system starts with good quality cables.
üEach lighting unit needs to have an address set to receive the data sent by
the controller. The address number is between 0-511. The end of the
DMX512 system should be terminated reducing signal errors.
ü3 pin XLR connectors are more popular than 5 pin XLR.
3 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+)
5 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+)
