Safety Precautions
Please keep this User Guide for future consultation If you sell the unit to another user, be
sure that they also receive this instruction manual
Caution: For added protection mount the fixtures in areas outside walking paths, seating ar-
eas, or in areas were the fixture might be reached by unauthorized personnel
Before mounting the fixture to any surface, make sure that the installation area can hold a
minimum point load of 10 items the device’s weight
Fixture installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, such as an
appropriate safety cable
Never stand directly below the device when mounting, removing, or servicing the fixture
From a ceiling, or set on a flat level surface (see illustration below) Be sure this fixture is kept
at least 0 5m (1 5ft) away from any flammable materials (decoration etc )
Always use and install a safety cable as a safety measure to prevent accidental damage
and/or injury in the event the clamp fails
DO NOT connect the device to any dimmer pack
During initial start-up some smoke or smell may arise This is a normal process and does not
necessarily mean that the device is defective, and it will decrease gradually within 15 minutes
∙Don’t try to modify the fixture without any instruction by the manufacturer
∙Warranty is voided if there are any malfunctions from not following the user manual while op-
erating or any hazardous operation, like shock short circuit, electronic shock, lamp broken,
etc

DMX Setup
DMX Basics
DMX512 stands for digital multiplex 512. This means that 512 channels are controlled
digitally through 1 data cable.
A channel is a set of 255 steps that are assigned to control attributes in each light. This
may be a color like red, green or blue, and intensity, strobe, pan/tilt or other attributes.
Multiple sets of 512 “universes” may be used. Only 1 universe will travel on a DMX cable,
but through networked DMX (Art-Net or sACN E1.31), many universes can travel over a
network.
DMX Wirin
DMX works by connecting 1 or multiple lights to the output of a DMX lighting console or
software with a DMX interface.
DMX lights connect in what is called a “daisy-chain”. Your first DMX cable will plug it’s
male DMX connector into the female DMX connector on your lighting console. The re-
maining female connector will then connect to the DMX input on your first light.
You may then connect your next fixture to the output of your first light, and continue the
chain.
32 Fixture Rule – DMX only allows you to connect up to 32 fixtures in a single daisy
chain for signal strength. Sometimes, depending on the fixtures and cable length, this
number is less (or more).
DMX Cables can be 3-pin or 5-pin. These use the same type of data, and in the 5-pin
only pins 1, 2, and 3 are used. The cable should be a 2 conductor, shielded cable of at
least 110 ohms resistance. Microphone cable is not DMX cable. Please refer to the dia-
gram below:
Orux 480 Z – GAMMA LED Vision Page 10 of 23

For installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance or is in an electrically
noisy environment, it is recommended to use a DMX terminator. This helps in preventing
corruption of the digital control signal by electrical noise and reflections. The DMX ter-
minator is simply an XLR plug with a 120 Ω resistor 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:
Orux 480 Z – GAMMA LED Vision Page 11 of 23

DMX Modes and Confi uration
The Orux 480 Z has multiple DMX modes, sometimes called “personalities”, “profiles”, or
as we will use here “modes”.
In general, modes with more DMX channels offer a greater level of control or options but
take up more of your output channels on your lighting console or software.
Modes with less DMX channels often offer less control, but may be plenty for your needs.
Depending on your needs and control solution, you may not need channels for auto-
mated programs, strobes, or macros – your console may have great effects! In this case,
you can use a lesser channel mode and fit more lights per DMX universe.
The Orux 480 Z offers a 34 and 54 Channel Mode. The 34 Channel Mode is utilitarian
and will work well for many users. The 54CH mode offers 16-bit control of most param-
eters, ideal for fine control and longer throw distances.

3. Maintenance
Routine Maintenance
Fixture Cleanin
The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out
periodically to optimize light output Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in
which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or particularly dirty surroundings can cause
greater accumulation of dirt on the unit’s optics
 Clean with soft, damp cloth
 Always dry the parts carefully
 Clean the external optics at least every 20 days
Use an air compressor (oil-free) on electronics vacuum to clean the fan inlets and outlets
when you notice they are dusty or dirty Like any other electronics fan, always use an ob-
ject to block the fan from spinning while you clean it, and blow air so that the dirt blows out
of the fixture!
Troubleshootin Problems
Error Messa es
The display may show some of these common error messages:
“Error Channel is XX” – indicates there is a problem with one of the channels. These cor-
respond to the DMX channels.
“Pan or Tilt Movement Er” – This message will appear after reset if the Pan opr Tilt circuit
indicates the encoder is not reading correctly and there is a problem with the system.
Common Problems
The following are a few common problems that may occur during operation. Here are
some suggestions for easy troubleshooting:
Orux 480 Z – GAMMA LED Vision Page 19 of 23

A. The unit does not work and you do not hear any fans runnin
when it’s plu ed in:
•Check that the unit is plugged in to a working power outlet.
•Press the menu button to confirm that the unit is powered on. If the screen does
not light up, the unit has no power.
B. Not Respondin to the DMX Controller
•Check DMX cables to verify that they are plugged in and functional.
•Check the DMX address and mode – does it match the address and mode patched
in the lighting console or software?
•Plug the light directly into the DMX controller with a cable that you know is good.
nplug all other lights – does it work?
•Try to use another DMX controller.
C. One of the functions is not workin well
•The stepper motor might be damaged or the cable connected to the PCB is bro-
ken.
•The motor’s drive IC on the PCB may be bad.
