data link.
Protection from electric shock
• Disconnect the power supply from AC power before installation, dismounting or maintenance of the unit.
• Make sure all connectors are connected properly.
• Use only a source of AC power that complies with local building and electrical codes.
• Do not expose the unit to rain or moisture.
• Refer all service to a qualified technician.
Protection from burns and fire
• Provide a clearance of at least 50 mm around the unit.
• Do not install the RGB LED PAR-V3 near to a heat source.
• Do not install the RGB LED PAR-V3 in a corrosive, flammable or explosive area.

Installing the CLS LED PAR56-V3
The CLS LED PAR56-V3 Black can be installed in different ways.
You can support it on a shelf, or mount it by using the mounting hole.
Data linking multiple CLS LED PAR56-V3
You need to create a data link if you want to control one or more CLS LED PAR56-V3 via a DMX
controller. The CLS LED PAR56-V3 can be data-linked by using the XLR 3 input and output connectors
at the back of the unit.
To set up a data link you have to take the following steps:
• Disconnect all the units from the AC supply.
• Connect the XLR 3 female connector of the first CLS LED PAR56-V3 to a DMX extension cable.
Connect the other end of the DMX cable to the XLR 3 male of the next CLS LED PAR56-V3. You can
use CLS DMX cables for this purpose.
• Continue connecting CLS LED PAR56-V3 in this 'daisy chain' way.
• A maximum of 32 units can be connected in this way.

5.2 Colour changing
With this mode, the CLS LED PAR56-V3 will show you a stepping colour-changing program. You can set the
speed of this program by a potentiometer or by music.
5.3. Colour changing with 1 Master and maximum 3 Slaves
With this mode you can create a lightshow without a DMX controller. 1 CLS LED PAR56-V3 must set as
master and all other CLS LED PARs as slave units.
The selection-switches of the slaves must be “off”.
5.5 Stepping colour changes
For stepping colour changes with 1 master and maximum 3 slaves, set the selection-switches from the
master on the right position.
5.4 Fading colour changes
For fading colour changes with 1 master and maximum 3 slaves set the selection switches from the master
on the right position.
The selection-switches of the slaves must be “off”.
All slaves must be set with a DMX address with the selection switches. Every unit needs 5
channels, so the first slave must be set on address 6, the second on 11 and the third on 16.
Connect the master with a DMX cable to the first slave, connect the first slave with a DMX cable to the
second slave and connect the second slave with a DMX cable to the third slave.
Now you can choose how you want to change the colours. Fading or stepping.
And set all other CLS LED PAR56-V3 Black to slave operation:
* = dip switch on = Speed control by music
dip switch off = Speed control by potentiometer
