4.6 DMX- 512 connection, master/slave connection
The wires must not come into contact with each other, otherwise
the fixtures will not work at all,or will not work properly.
Only use a stereo shielded cable and 3-pin XLR-plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller with the
fixture or one fixture with another.
Occupation of the XLR-connection:
DMX - output DMX-input
XLR mounting-socket: XLR mounting-plug:
Building a serial DMX-chain:
Ifyou areusingthe standard controllers,youcan connecttheDMX-output of thecontrollerdirectly withtheDMX-
input of the first fixture in the DMX-chain. If you wish to connect DMX-controllers with other XLR-outputs, you
needto useadapter-cables.
Connect the DMX-output of the first fixture in the DMX-chain with the DMX-input of the next fixture. Always
connect output with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are connected.
Caution: At the last fixture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 Ohm resistor
between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last fixture.
Building a master/slave-chain:
Connect the DMX-output of the master fixture in the data-chain with the DMX-input of the first slave. Always
connect output with the input of the next slave until all slaves are connected (up to 9 fixtures).
Caution:It’s necessary toinsertthe XLRterminationplug (with120Ohm) intotheinput ofthemaster fixtureand
into the output of the last slave fixture in the link in order to ensure proper transmission on the data link.

TheCOLOR SPOT150 canbeoperated witha controllerin controller mode or without the controller in stand-
alone mode.
Both modes are described in the texts below.
7.Controller mode
The fixtures are individually addressed (001-504) on a data link and connected to the controller.The fixtures
respond to the DMX signal from the controller.
7.1 DMX addressing
Thecontrol panelon thefrontside ofthe base allowsyou toassign the DMXfixture address,which is definedas
the first channel from which the COLOR SPOT 150 will respond to the controller.
If you set, for example, the address to channel 5, the COLOR SPOT 150 will use the channel 5 to 13 for control.
Please,besurethat youdon’t haveanyoverlappingchannels in ordertocontroleachCOLOR SPOT150correctly
and independently from any other fixture on the DMX data link.
If two, three or more COLOR SPOT 150 are addressed similarly, they will work similarly.
Foraddress setting,pleaserefer totheinstructions under"Addressing"(menu "A001").
Controlling:
After having addressed all COLOR SPOT 150 , you may now start operating these via your lighting controller.
Note:After switching on, the COLOR SPOT 150 will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or
not.If there is no data received at the DMX-input, the display will start to flash "A001" with actually set address.
This situation can occur if:
-the 3PINXLR plug(cablewithDMX signal fromcontroller) is notconnectedwith theinputof theCOLORSPOT
150
- the controller is switched off or defective, the cable or connector is defective or the signal wires are swap in the
inputconnector.
Note:It’s necessary to insert the XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) to the last fixture in the link in order to
ensure proper transmission on the DMX data link.
7.2 Remotely controllable functions
Colour - wheel
The COLOR SPOT 150 contains a colour wheel with 12 colour positions - 11 of these with dichroic colours and
the last one white.The colour-wheel can be positioned between two adjacent colours in any position.It is also
possible to rotate the colour- wheel continuously at different speeds("Rainbow effect“ in both directions).
Rotating gobo wheel
The rotating gobo-wheel includes 3 metal gobos, 3 glass gobos and 1 multicolor dichroic gobo rotating in both
directions. All gobos are interchangeable.The metal gobos have an outside diameter of 27 mm and an image
diameterof 22,5 mm.Theglassand dichroicgoboshave anoutside diameterof26,8 mm andanimage diameter
of 22,5 mm.
Shutter/Dimmer/Strobe
The dimming (0-100%) is provided by the simple mechanical shutter unit.This unit may also be used for strobe
effect (1 - 8 flashes per second).

17
8. Stand - alone mode
The fixtures on a data link are not connected to the controller but can execute pre-set programs which can be
different for every fixture.To set the program to be played,see the "Stand-alone setting" ( menu "St.AL.").
"Stand-alone operation" can be applied to the single fixture (the fixture may be set to the master /slave mode or
controller mode ) or to multiple fixtures operating synchronously.
Synchronous operation of multiple fixtures requires that they must be connected on a data link and one of them
is set as a master (master mode) and the rest as the slaves (slave mode).The slaves are assigned to SLA1-
SLA9 and on the certain slave address can be connected only one fixture.To set the fixture as the master or
slave , see the "Addressing" (menu "A001").
If the master fixture runs a reset or plays test(program) ,all slaves will execute these acts too.
You can't play or edit any programs on the slaves by their control panels if the master is switched on and
connected to the master/slave chain.
The master fixture starts simultaneous program start in the other slave fixtures.All fixtures have a definite,
synchronizedstartingpointwhen playing back their programs.Thenumberof runningprogram isthe samein all
slaves and depends on the master's choice (menu "St.AL." ).Every fixture runs its program repeatedly ,starting
the program step No.1 when requested by the master .
Forexample:
If the slave fixture has a shorter program length, it will continously repeat its program until the master fixture
finishes its own program and restarts its program running (slave 1- prog.step 3 will not be finished).
If the slave fixture has a longer program length, it will restart at prog.step 1 before it completes all its prog.steps
(slave 2 - prog.step 5 will not be played)- see the picture bellow.
Note:Disconectthe fixturesfromtheDMX controllerbeforemaster/slaveoperating ,otherwisedatacollisionscan
occur and the fixtures will not work properly!
It’s necessary to insert the XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) into the input of the master fixture and into the
output of the last slave fixture in the data link in order to ensure proper transmission on the data link.
From the master's control panel is possible to control any slave in a master/slave chain.

4.Press the [ ]- button.Choosen address is shown on the display.
If message "MASt." fast flashes-DMX signal is received at the DMX-input- disconnect DMX controller!
Only one fixture may be the master. Up to the 9 slaves may be connected to the master and on the certain
address can be connected only one slave fixture (SLA1-SLA9).

19
Note:Disconectthe fixturesfromtheDMX controllerbeforemaster/slaveoperating ,otherwisedatacollisionscan
occur and the fixtures will not work properly!
If the fixture is set as the master and DMX signal is connected to its input,the error massage "MAEr" will appear
onits displayand thefixture's addresswill be setto its DMXaddress inorder torespondto DMXsignal fromthe
controller.
Forexample:
The master fixture has this address setting:"dM.Ad."-menu.........A010
"MA.SL."-menu........MASt (is displayed)
The DMX signal is connected to the master fixture.The message "MAst" starts fast flashing and after 20s error
massage "MA.Er" appears on its display and the fixture automatically will be switched to its DMX address
(masteraddress isdisabled).
Now the fixture has the address setting: "dM.Ad."-menu.........A010 ("A010"/" MA.Er"blinks )
"MA.SL."-menu.........d.AbL.
If the fixture is set as the slave and DMX signal is connected to its input,the fixture will respond to DMX signal
fromthe controller(independence onthe fixture's DMXaddress).
