4. Installation via clamp
Screw the clamps each via a M12 screw and nut onto the Omega holders.
Insert the quick-lock fasteners of the first Omega holder into the respective holes on the bottom
of the device. Tighten the quick-lock fasteners fully clockwise. Install the second Omega holder.
Pull the safety-rope through the holes on the bottom of the base and over the trussing system or
a safe fixation spot. Insert the end in the carabine and tighten the safety screw.
5. DMX-512 control connections
Connect the provided XLR cable to the female 3-pin XLR output of your controller and the other
side to the male 3-pin XLR input of the moving head. You can chain multiple
Moving head together through serial linking. The cable needed should be two core, screened
cable with XLR input and output connectors. Please refer to the diagram below.
DMX-512 connection with DMX terminator
For installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance or is in an electrically noisy
environment, such as in a discotheque, it is recommended to use a DMX terminator. This helps
in preventing corruption of the digital control signal by electrical noise. The DMX terminator is


simply an XLR plug with a 120 Ωresistor connected between pins 2 and 3,which is then
plugged into the output XLR socket of the last fixture in the chain. Please see illustrations below.

spots (ceiling, suspension, trussing).
3）Mechanically moved parts must not show any traces of wearing and must not rotate with
unbalances.
4）The electric power supply cables must not show any damage, material fatigue or sediments.
Further instructions depending on the installation spot and usage have to be adhered by a
skilled installer and any safety problems have to be removed.

In order to make the lights in good condition and extend the life time, we suggest a regular
cleaning to the lights.
1) Clean the inside and outside lens each week to avoid the weakneness of the lights due to
accumulation of dust.
2) Clean the fan each week.
3) A detailed electric check by approved electrical engineer each three month, make sure that
the circuit contacts are in good condition, prevent the poor contact of circuit from
overheating.
We recommend a frequent cleaning of the device. Please use a moist, lint- free cloth. Never use
alcohol or solvents.
