Safety Instructions
In General
In order to maintain the condition and to ensure a safe operation, it is important for all users to follow the safety instructions and
warning notes written in this manual.
Do not operate the fixture with missing or damaged covers, shields or any optical component.
Please consider that unauthorized modifications to the device are forbidden due to safety reasons.
If the device is operated in any way that’s not described in this manual, the product may suffer damage and the guarantee will
become void. Furthermore, misuse may lead to dangers like short-circuit, burns, electric shock, burns due to ultraviolet radiation,
lamp explosion, crash, etc.
IP67 protection rating
The fixture is protected against dust (first digit 6) and against Immersion, up to 1m depth tested for 30 minutes (second digit 7).
Prevention from electrical shock
Make sure to ground (earth) the fixture electrically. (It’s essential to connect the yellow/green conductor to earth)
Main Connection
Do not apply any AC mains power to the fixture at any other voltage than that specified.
Never let the eventCON® cable come into contact with other cables. Treat the eventCON® cable and all connections with the mains
with particular caution.
Make sure the eventCON® cable is never crimped or damaged by sharp edges.
Rigging
Check that all external covers and rigging hardware are securely fastened.
When choosing the installation-location, please make sure that the fixture is not exposed to extreme heat. There should not be any
cables lying around. You endanger your own and the safety of others.
Make sure that the area below the installation place is cordoned off when rigging, de-rigging or servicing the fixture.
If suspending from a rigging structure, fasten the fixture to a rigging clamp with an M10 bolt screwed into the threaded hole in the
center of the base of the fixture. The bolt must be screwed at 20-25mm into the fixture. If the fixture is suspended by any other
method, an M10 bolt must be screwed into this hole so that it is 20-25mm into the fixture.
Make sure all fixtures are operated and installed by qualified personnel with the relevant national certifications.
Install as described in this manual a secondary attachment such as a safety wire that is approved by an official body. The safety wire
must comply with EN 60598-2-17 Section 17.6.6 and be capable of bearing a static suspended load ten times the weight of the
fixture.
Positioning:
The fixture must be positioned at least 0.2m minimum distance to illuminate objects.
Keep all inflammable materials at least 0.2m from this fixture.
Allow to place the fixture on an inflammable surface.
The maximum ambient temperature of 45°C may not be exceeded.
The exterior of this fixture can reach a very high temperature during operation. Avoid contact by persons and materials.

Connections
Mains & DMX
The eventCON® system is an innovative VDE certified connection System for professional use. It offers one connection for Power
supply as well as the DMX signal. You will only be in need for one cable. You are able to loop through to the next device, while the
BabyBeam 4 offers you an input and output.
The connection of the Power supply has to be done by qualified personnel only. Do not connect the BabyBeam 4 if you are not able
to survey the consequences.
Do not try to connect another Type of Plug than an original eventCON®. Do not
use any force to connect the eventCON® plug. You could use the outlet for connecting additional devices. The internal Power wiring
is done with a cable cross section of 2.5mm².
The eventCON® System offers a big range of optional cables and mergers. For further information see Chapter eventCON® on
Appendix page IV

We recommend the use of High quality XLR connectors like original NEUTRIK. Please use real DMX cable with a surge impedance of
110 Ω.
Please notice that the USITT DMX Standard does allow the use a max of 32 DMX fixtures in one line. You should terminate the signal
by a 120 Ω resistor.
In the Standard mode the BabyBeam 4 uses 8 DMX channels.
Connect the devices and increase the value of the DMX channel by 8 from one device to another

eventCON®
The eventCON is a new, innovative cable connector system, which combines power and DMX signal in one cable and one plug. This
is the revolution of connection in lighting. The plug is IP67 certified and can be assembled in the customers need without losing the
IP certification. The VDE certification attests the eventCON system a power current up to 16A.
Thanks to the future-oriented mechanism the plug just needs to be inserted into the connector and locks automatically. By turning
the sleeve the connection is unlocked.
Innovative cablin solutions simplify the work in the event industry. In order that the eventCON system works with your classic fixtures
we have developed adapter sets which connect classic XLR/Schuko/PowerCON with the eventCON system.
