THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING GENARAY
The Genaray Quad Sun LED light fixture provides
photographers and videographers with extremely bright
yet soft continuous light. This 1 × 4 fixture can operate
on AC or battery power, and it features flicker-free light
that’s ideal for shooting video at high frame rates. The
light throws a beam with 120-degree coverage, and its
integrated diffuser and recessed LEDs contribute to a
bright and punchy single-shadow light that also has a soft
wraparound quality.
The Quad Sun supports DMX-512, and its settings can
be remotely controlled from a DMX console. There are
512 selectable channels and a 5-pin XLR output jack to
daisy-chain other DMX-compatible lights. The Quad Sun
comes in a heavy-duty, reinforced metal chassis that can
withstand the most demanding professional environments.
For compatibility in the studio, the integrated yoke can be
mounted to a light stand with a baby pin or junior receiver.

The Quad Sun can also be powered by
two 14.8-volt V-mount batteries.
Important!

Note
When the fan is turned off, the maximum
brightness will be capped at 80%.
If the brightness is set over 80%, it will
drop to 80% when the fan is turned off
and resume when the fan is turned on.
USING DMX
The Quad Sun supports DMX-512 so the
light’s settings can be remotely controlled
from a DMX lighting control console.
Important!
Do not use a 5-pin XLR microphone
cable to connect DMX devices. Use only
cables that are made specifically for
DMX devices. Substituting a microphone
cable can cause data transmission
problems in your DMX setup.
ADJUSTING BRIGHTNESS AND
COLOR TEMPERATURE
Open the barndoors, and power on
the Quad Sun. The LCD screen will
display the previous settings.
Set the brightness and color temperature by
rotating the dials on the back of the fixture.
· The color temperature range is 3200
to 5600 K in 100 K increments.
· The brightness range is 100%
to 10% in 1% increments.
For quieter operation, turn off the
fan via the fan on/off switch.
