1. Introduction and Setup
Unpacking and In t e Box
Thank you for choosing our Luxé Bloom Cyclo. For your own safety, please read this manual
before installing or using the de ice. This manual co ers the important information on installa-
tion and applications. Please install and operate the fixture with following instructions. Mean-
while, please keep this manual for future needs.
In the box you will find:
•Luxé Bloom Cyclo Fixure: 1
•Omega Brackets 2
•DMX Cable 1
•1.5m PowerCon to Edison Cable: 1
Mounting and Operation
Before installation, please read the user manual carefully, then prepare Omega Brackets
(2 pcs), Clamps (2 pcs), and Safety Cable (1 pc).
Clamp Mounting: The Luxé Bloom Cyclo pro ides a unique mounting bracket assembly
that integrates the bottom of the base, and the safety cable rigging point in one unit.
When mounting this fixture to truss be sure to secure an appropriately rated clamp to the
included omega bracket using a M10 screw fitted through the center hole of the omega
bracket.
As an added safety measure be sure to attached at least one properly rated safety cable
to the fixture using on of the safety cable rigging point integrated in the base assembly.
The fixture may also be placed upon a solid surface, in which case the Omega Brackets
are not used.
Features
The Luxé Bloom Cyclo features high-intensity RGBW LED’s in (2) independently focused and
independantly controllable banks. It’s output is smooth and allows for washes of large sur-
faces when multiple units are used. It features a 90° x 120° beam angle for wide, e en co er-
age!

Safety Precautions
Please keep this User Guide for future consultation. If you sell the unit to another user, be
sure that they also recei e 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 de ice’s weight.
Fixture installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, such as an
appropriate safety cable.
Ne er stand directly below the de ice when mounting, remo ing, or ser icing the fixture.
From a ceiling, or set on a flat le el 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 the supplied safety cable as a safety measure to pre ent accidental
damage and/or injury in the e ent the clamp fails.
DO NOT connect the de ice 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 de ice is defecti e, and it will decrease gradually within 15 minutes.
∙Don’t try to modify the fixture without any instruction by the manufacturer.
∙Warranty is oided 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
DMX5 2 stands for digital multiplex 5 2. This means that 5 2 channels are controlled
digitally through 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 5 2 “universes” may be used. Only universe will travel on a DMX cable,
but through networked DMX (Art-Net or sACN E .3 ), many universes can travel over a
network.
DMX Wiring
DMX works by connecting 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 , 2, and 3 are used. The cable should be a 2 conductor, shielded cable of at
least 0 ohms resistance. Microphone cable is not DMX cable.

Please refer to the diagram below:
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 20 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:

DMX Modes and Configuration
The Luxé Bloom Cyclo has multiple DMX modes, sometimes called “personalities”, “pro-
files”, 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.
View the DMX mode charts on the next page to find the mode that best suits your needs.

Standalone Mode and Configuration
By linking the units with DMX cable in a Master/Slave connection, the first unit will control
the other units to give an automatic, sound-activated, synchronized light show when the
Luxé Bloom Cyclo is placed into Standalone mode by the on-board menu and keys.

3. Maintenance
Routine Maintenance
The cleaning of lens must be carried out periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning
frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates: damp, smokey, or
particularly dirty surrounding can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the fixture’s op-
tics.
• Clean with a damp, soft cloth..
• Always dry the parts carefully.
• Clean the external optics at least every 20 days in demanding environments.
Troubles ooting Problems
The following are a few common problems that may occur during operation. Here are
some suggestions for easy troubleshooting:
A. T e unit does not work:
•Check that the unit is plugged in to a working power connector.
•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 Responding to t e 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.
Unplug all other lights – does it work?
•Try to use another DMX controller.

Recommended Spacing and Coverage
While the distance apart and total coverage accomplished varies by the focus of the seg-
ments, brightness required, desired flatness, and vertical distance beyond the lit area, the
following is a guideline for good spacing of the Bloom Cyclo.
You may find that your application requires less fixtures or more, but use this as a guide-
line in your calculations.
