Irideon WLZ User Manual 1
Introduction
The Irideon WLZ is a compact but powerful LED wash light. It incorporates
many of the great features of its companion luminaire, the Irideon FPZ,
including local and DMX control, adjustable zoom, and sleek design.
The Irideon WLZ has three available mounting options:
•Track-mount: For use with the OneTrack or DataTrack track system.
•Portable: Includes a miniature C-clamp (North America only) and
yoke-mounted driver, and has a permanently installed power cord
with 3-prong Edison connector. Region-specific connectors are
available. Contact ETC for available options. Use L5-15 plugs on
branch circuits with L5-15 receptacles only.
•Canopy: Available in three different control variants:
‐0–10 V
‐DALI
‐DMX

Installation
Install Track-Mounted Luminaire (OneTrack)
1. Before you begin, verify that the adapter
is unlocked. (Images at right show just
the OneTrack adapter.)
2. Orient the adapter so that the two tabs
are aligned with the groove in the track,
and then insert the adapter into the
track. The tab at the end of the adapter
locks into the track when the fixture is
fully seated.
WARNING: When using
the circuit selection lock,
ensure that the selected
circuit is a constant
power circuit. Selecting a
dimmable circuit may
cause luminaire damage
that will void the ETC
warranty.

1. Insert the DataTrack adapter
into the track. The adapter
only fits into the track one
way with the tabs nesting
into the track’s groove.
2. Rotate the locking
mechanism to lock the
adapter into place.
WARNING: When using the circuit selection lock,
ensure that the selected circuit is a constant power
circuit. Selecting a dimmable circuit may cause
luminaire damage that will void the ETC warranty.
3. Use the circuit selection lock to select the circuit. The desired circuit
number should point toward the center of the adapter.
Install Canopy Luminaire (DMX Variant)
Note: The canopy luminaire can be installed directly on 4in and
4-11/16in back boxes, or on back boxes with round cover plates.
The canopy luminaire cannot be installed on 1-gang back boxes or
trim rings.
Install the Voltage Barrier (DMX Variant)
The DMX variant of the canopy luminaire includes a voltage barrier to
separate the data network from the line voltage inside the back box.
Voltage barriers are provided for both 4in and 4-11/16in back boxes.
CAUTION: DMX control is a Class 2 circuit. DMX wiring
cannot be run through the same conduit as line voltage
power-supply conductors. Separate the line voltage from the
data side in the back box. Install the voltage barrier provided
by ETC.

6 Irideon WLZ User Manual
Install the voltage barrier in the back
box with the provided bolt (see
images at right, showing a 4in back
box). The voltage barrier blocks two
or more through holes in the back of
the junction box, depending on how
it is oriented, plus the center conduit
knockout in the back of the junction
box and the center knockouts on two
sides of the junction box. The blocked
holes and knockouts are marked with
"X" in the illustration to the right.
Connect Canopy Wiring
(DMX Variant)
Cable preparation instructions for
DMX termination are included in the
termination kits, and are also available for download at etcconnect.com.
1. Remove the adhesive tape or fasteners securing the mounting plate to
the luminaire to free the mounting plate from the canopy enclosure.
WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Install the cover plate
as directed below for installations where the interior of the
canopy enclosure could be exposed after installation with
only the mounting plate. For example, install the cover plate
when installing to a surface-mount back box.
AVERTISSEMENT : Installez la plaque de protection comme
indiqué ci-dessous pour les installations où l'intérieur de la
rosace de plafond pourrait être exposé après l'installation
avec uniquement la plaque de montage. Par exemple,
installez la plaque de protection lors de l'installation sur un
boîtier arrière à montage en surface.
2. Are you flush-mounting the luminaire or surface-mounting the
luminaire?
• Flush-mounting: Continue to step 3.
•

Surface-mounting:
Position the cover
plate on top of the
mounting plate
before wiring the
luminaire. The cover
plate is required when the interior of the canopy enclosure could
be exposed after installation with only the mounting plate (the
mounting surface is smaller than the canopy enclosure).

3. Terminate DMX/RDM input from the control source to the back box.
a. Follow the DMX termination kit instructions provided with the
product to terminate the control wiring.
b. Install the connector with wires terminated to the DMX/RDM Input
receptacle on the termination board.
4. Optionally, terminate DMX/RDM thru to the next device in the DMX
data run. Up to 32 DMX/RDM devices can be daisy-chained together
per data run.
a. Order additional termination kits separately (request ETC part
number 4100A1022). Follow the DMX termination kit instructions

Install Portable Luminaire with C-clamp
The C-clamp attaches the luminaire to the mounting pipe and allows you to
adjust the position of the luminaire once it is mounted. The C-clamp will fit
a 3/4in to 2in pipe. Two different length pipe bolts are provided to
accommodate different pipe sizes.
Note: The miniature C-clamp for the portable luminaire is available
only in North America. In the EU and UK, use an M12 bolt to secure
a clamp (provided separately) to the luminaire.

Irideon WLZ User Manual 13
1. Insert the spacer into the driver box through the hole in the top of the
yoke.
2. Tightly fasten the C-clamp to the yoke with the provided yoke bolt
and washers.
3. Place the C-clamp on the mounting pipe, and then tighten the pipe
bolt to secure it. Use the standard pipe bolt to secure the luminaire to
larger mounting pipes. If necessary, exchange the standard pipe bolt
for the longer pipe bolt (included) to secure the luminaire to smaller
mounting pipes.

FPZ Unistrut Kit (7191K1000).
1. Insert the spacer into the driver
box through the hole in the top
of the yoke.
2. Use the yoke bolt and washers
to fasten the luminaire to the
Unistrut track.
Within the EU, use an M12 bolt
and appropriate washers in
place of the provided kit
hardware.
Connect Cables to
Portable Luminaire
1. Connect RJ45 data cables to
the top of the driver box, one
for data in and one for data thru (in either position), as needed.
• To order RJ45-to-socket XLR adapter, use part number W6538.
• To order RJ45-to-plug XLR adapter, use part number W6539.
2. Connect the luminaire to the power source.
Note:
• The Irideon WLZ is not self-terminating. You must terminate
the last luminaire in line with a 120 Ohm resistor. Please
contact your ETC customer service representative to purchase
part number N4086.
• No more than 32 DMX devices can be daisy-chained together
on a single run. For runs of luminaires totaling more than 32
DMX devices, use a DMX splitter to split the DMX runs.
• When using DMX over Cat5, use Cat5e or better. Cable
distance must not exceed 300 m (1000 ft).
• The Irideon WLZ cannot be controlled via network protocols
and should not be connected to a system network.

Configuration
Set the DMX Address at the Luminaire
You can set the DMX address using RDM, but you can also set the DMX
address on the luminaire itself, if necessary. The luminaire uses the last
address that you set, regardless of whether you set it via RDM or locally on
the luminaire.
There are three addressing dials on the track adapter (track-mounted
luminaire), in the canopy (canopy luminaire), or on the driver box (portable
luminaire). To set the DMX address, use a small flatblade screwdriver to
move the arrow to the desired address number.
DMX addresses must be set between 1 and 512. Each luminaire must be
considered a separate DMX device for the purpose of DMX line-loading
calculations. The Irideon WLZ only has an intensity channel.
Note: When using RDM with track-mounted luminaires, ETC
recommends connecting no more than 20 luminaires on a single
run.
