8- VOLTAGE AND FREQUENCY
NICK NRG 501 operates at 100-240Vac 50-60 Hz.
9- INSTALLATION
NICK NRG 501 may be either floor or ceiling mounted.
For floor mounting installations, the NICK NRG 501 is supplied with four rubber
mounting feet on the base.
For ceiling mounted installations, we reccomend the use of appropriate clamps to fix
the unit to the mounting surface.
The supporting structure from which the unit is hung should be capable of bearing the
weight of the unit, as should any clamps used to hung it. The structure should also be
sufficiently rigid so as not to move or shake whilst the NICK NRG 501 is moving.
Four 1/4 turn Fast Locks connections placed in the base of the unit allow to hang the
NICK NRG 501 by using the Fast Lock “C” clamps provided in the box.
9.1- Safety cable
We recommend the use of a safety cable or chain connected to the NICK NRG 501
and to the suspension truss in order to avoid the fixture accidentally falling should the
main fixing point fail.
Make sure that the iron cable or chain can bear the weight of the entire unit.
You may attach the safety chain/cord to the attachment point (A) located on the base
of the fixture, as shown in the picture below.

Do not place any obstructions in the path of the projector's movement.
WARNING
Do not place any object in the
path of the projector’s
movement
9.4- Risk of fire
Each fixture produces heat and must be installed in a well-ventilated place.
It is permissible to place the unit on normally flammable materials surfaces.
Suitable for mounting on normally flammable materials surfaces greater than 200°C
with some combustion time lag.
Minimum distance from the object being illuminated is 0,5 m.
9.5- Forced ventilation
You will note, on inspection, that the unit features various air inlets and cooling fans.
These should, under no circumstances, be blocked or obstructed whilst the projector is
in operation. Doing so could cause the fixture to seriously overheat thereby
compromising its proper operation.
9.6- Ambient temperature
The projector should never be installed in places that lack a constant air flow.
The ambient temperature should not exceed 40°C.

!

12
11- DMX SIGNAL CONNECTION
The unit operates using the digital DMX 512 signal.
Connection between the mixer and the projector or between projectors must be carried
out using a two pair screened ø 0.5 mm cable and a XLR 5 or 3 pins connector.
Ensure that the conductors do not touch each other.
Do not connect the cable ground to the XLR chassy.
The plug housing must be isolated. Connect the mixer signal to the DMX IN projector
plug and connect it to the next projector by connecting the DMX OUT plug on the first
projector to the DMX IN plug of the second one.
This way, all the projectors are cascade connected.
NB. If the display showing the DMX address flashes, then one of the following errors
has occurred:
- DMX signal not present
- DMX address not valid
- DMX reception problem
For Installations where long distance DMX cable connections are needed, we suggest
to use a DMX terminator.
The DMX terminator is a male XLR 3-5 pins connector with a 120 ohm resistor
between pin 2 and 3.
The DMX terminator must be plugged into the last unit (DMX out panel connector) of
the DMX line.
PLACE A 120 OHM RESISTOR BETWEEN PIN 2
AND 3 OF A MALE XRL CONNECTOR AND PLUG IT
INTO THE DMX OUT PANEL CONNECTOR OF THE
LAST UNIT CONNECTED TO THE DMX LINE
