2. Avoiding damage to the fixture
Important! Follow the directions in this section carefully, or the fixture may suffer
damage that is not covered by the product warranty.
General precautions
Do not drop the fixture or expose it to mechanical stress.
Protect the onboard LCD display and control panel from shocks, or they may suffer
damage that is not covered by the product warranty.
Do not expose the fixture to heat (from other lighting fixtures for example).
Clean optical components only as directed. Oils, solvents, and other chemicals
commonly used for cleaning can damage the lens coatings and surfaces.
Use only original spare parts. Do not make any structural modifications to the fixture or
you will void the product warranty.
Avoiding damage from light sources and heat
Do not point the front of the fixture towards the sun or other strong light sources. Strong
light can cause internal damage to the fixture, melting components or starting an
internal fire within seconds.
Figure 1. Avoiding damage from light sources
Damage can occur whether the fixture is powered on or off. See Figure 1. Damage
can also occur if the light hits the front of the fixture at an angle: the fixture does not
need to be pointing directly at the sun or other light source.
To avoid problems from strong light sources:
● Do not expose the front of the fixture to sunlight or any other strong light source.
● In outdoor applications during daylight, make sure that the front face of the fixture is
shielded or points away from the sun, even when not in use.
● Do not aim other high-powered beam lights directly at the fixture.
Do not operate the fixture in ambient temperatures above 40° C / 104° F. Allow free
airflow around the fixture.

German Light Products® Avoiding damage to the fixture
EXO Wash 30 User Manual Rev. B 11
IP rating
EXO Wash 30 fixtures are IP65-rated:
● IP stands for Ingress (entry into the fixture) Protection.
● The first figure 6in the rating means that fixtures are protected against the entry of
dust and airborne particles.
● The second figure 5 in the rating means that fixtures are protected against the entry
of rain and water projections from all angles. Fixtures are not protected against
immersion in water and they are not protected against high-pressure water jets.
Avoiding damage from water and humidity
● Do not install EXO Wash 30 fixtures in a location where water can pool around the
fixture or allow EXO Wash 30 fixtures to become submerged in any other way. Do
not aim low- or high-pressure water jets at fixtures.
● Keep all unused connectors on the fixture sealed with their protective caps, both
when the fixture is being used and when it is not in use.
● In outdoor and high-humidity environments, use IP65-rated power and data
connectors and cable (an IP65 rating means that the item is protected against the
entry of water from rain, projections and low-pressure jets as well as the entry of
dust). When assembling connectors and installing them on cable, follow the
manufacturer’s instructions (see www.neutrik.com) and ensure that an IP65 rating is
maintained for the complete assembly. Use only the following cable connectors:
- IP65-rated 5-pin XLR connectors for data IN and OUT (THRU)
- Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 NAC3FX-W for Power IN
- Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 NAC3MX-W for Power OUT (THRU).
● Apply a dielectric grease (available from electrical suppliers) to connector terminals
and caps to prevent corrosion and/or electrical short circuits.
● Make sure that cables open into dry areas or sealed junction boxes. Moisture can
be drawn along cables by capillary action or pressure variations resulting from
thermal expansion.
● See drawing on right.
Arrange cables so that they
arrive at connectors from
below. Make sure that it is
impossible for water to flow
down cables and
accumulate at connectors.
If necessary, provide extra
cable slack and create ‘drip loops’ before connectors.
● Create loose cable bends only. Do not subject connections to bending forces or
allow connections to bear the weight of long lengths of cable.

EXO Wash 30 fixtures only as described in this chapter, or you may create an
installation that is unsafe.
Install the fixture at least 0.5 m / 20 in. away from combustible materials
(wood, textiles, paper, etc.), 0.5 m / 20 in. away from any surface that will
be illuminated, and a safe distance away from any flammable materials
(volatile spirits, etc.).
It is the installer’s responsibility to provide a stable, secure supporting
structure that is suitable for the environment and application and that
meets all applicable codes and legal requirements. Note the requirement
to secure lighting fixtures with safety cables in temporary installations.
Permitted mounting options
An EXO Wash 30 fixture may be installed in one of the following ways:
1. Fastened to a rigging truss or similar structure at any angle by means of
truss couplers or other clamps fixed to the two Omega brackets which attach
to the half-turn couplers on the underside of the base.
2. Standing upright on the base on a horizontal surface.
Securing fixtures with a safety cable
In temporary installations, if a fixture can cause injury or damage if it falls you must
secure it with a secondary attachment such as a safety cable that will hold it if the
primary means of attachment fails. The safety cable must be approved for the weight
that it secures. In multiple installations, each fixture must have its own safety cable.

www.glp.de Installation
16 EXO Wash User Manual Rev. B
To secure an EXO Wash 30 fixture with a safety cable:
Figure 3. Safety cable attachment
1. Loop a safety cable around a secure anchoring point such as a truss
beam or fixed structure so that it will catch the fixture if a rigging clamp fails.
Take up as much slack as possible in the safety cable (by looping it more than
once around the bar, for example).
2. See Figure 3 and Figure 4. Fasten the safety cable through the slot “B” on
the underside of the fixture base. Check that the fixture is now secured.
Installing on a rigging truss or similar structure
You can suspend an EXO Wash 30 fixture from a rigging truss or pipe using suitable
clamps attached to the Omega Brackets supplied with the EXO Wash 30.
If you are going to install the fixture hanging vertically downwards from a horizontal
rigging truss or pipe, you can fasten it to the truss using G-clamps. If you are going to
install the fixture in any other orientation, you must use half-coupler clamps that
completely surround the truss chord or pipe.

Warning! Read ‘Safety’ starting on page 5 for important safety information
that you must understand before you install or operate the fixture.
Check that all cables and connectors are suitable for the installation
environment and application (see recommendations in ‘Avoiding damage
to the fixture’ on page 10).
Use H07 RN-F 3 x 2.5mm / SJT 12 AWG cables with original Neutrik powerCON
TRUE1 connectors to supply power to fixtures.
Line up the keyways in connectors carefully. Do not try to insert or twist a
connector if it feels excessively stiff. Resistance to insertion or twisting is a sign
that connectors may be incorrectly lined up.
Keep connectors sealed with their rubber caps at all times when not in use.
Included items
The EXO Wash 30 is supplied with a power cord with Neutrik powerCON TRUE1
connector.
Connecting to power
The AC mains power supply must include a connection to ground / protective earth. It
must be protected against ground / earth leakage and overload. The fixture’s internal
auto-sensing power supply accepts AC power at 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz. Do not connect
the fixture to power at any other voltage or to an external dimmer.
The EXO Wash 30 does not have a power ON/OFF switch. Power is applied to the
fixture as soon as the power cable becomes live.
The EXO Wash 30 has a 3-conductor Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 Mains IN power input
socket that accepts AC power from a TRUE1 female cable connector. Although TRUE1
connectors support hot plugging, it is still good practice to shut down power to power
cables before connecting them to fixtures.
To connect the fixture to power:
1. If convenient, shut down power to the power input cable.
2. Note the position of the keys and keyways on the TRUE1 power cable
connector and Mains IN socket and align them with each other. Insert the
cable connector into the socket and twist clockwise to lock. Do not use force.

6. Connecting to DMX data
Check that all cables and connectors are suitable for the installation environment and
application (see recommendations in ‘Avoiding damage to the fixture’ on page 10).
Use digital 110 Ohm DMX cable with IP65 5-pin XLR connectors to supply DMX data to
fixtures.
Keep connectors sealed with their rubber caps at all times when not in use.
The EXO Wash 30 has two 5-pin XLR sockets for IN and THRU connections to a DMX
data link. EXO Wash 30 fixtures support the USITT DMX 512A signal protocol. They also
support RDM (Remote Device Management).
The 5-pin XLR connectors use standard pin allocations:
1
Signal Ground
2
Data –
3
Data +
4

5

The DMX cable should start at the console and be daisy-chained through each fixture
to be controlled using the DMX input and DMX link out connectors. If you need to split
the DMX cable, use a powered DMX splitter.
If you would like advice with planning and installing a DMX link, your GLP supplier will
be happy to provide assistance.
