P18 MK2 WasH
Never connect this device to a dimmer pack.
During rst use, some smoke and odour may occur. This is normal and does not necessarily
mean that the device is defective.
The device becomes hot during operation. Never touch the device with bare hands during
operation!
When replacing fuses, only use the same types with identical values! Only have fuse replacement
carried out by a qualied technician
If the device has been exposed to strong temperature uctuations (e.g. after transport), thedevice
must not be switched on immediately. The resulting condensation can damage your device.
Leave the device switched off until it has reached room temperature.
If the P18 MK2 Wash is operated below 20°C, gobo/prism swapping and gobo/prism
rotation are reduced in speed. This is a protective mechanism of the P18 MK2 Wash, as at
low temperatures the lubricant is relatively viscous in the rotational mechanism and can
therefore cause the effect to be slurred. From indoor temperatures of 21°C and upwards,
the spotlight runs normally! Thistemperature is quickly reached under normal operation
(LED engine on).
Do not shake or knock the device. Avoid brute force during installation or operation.
This light was designed for indoor use only. Do not expose this device to rain or moisture.
When choosing a mounting location, make sure that the device is not exposed to extreme heat,
moisture or dust.
Ventilation openings and slots in the head and foot of the spotlight are used for ventilation
toensure reliable operation of the device and to protect it from overheating, these openings must
not be covered.
Never cover the front lens when the spotlight is in use.
The openings should never be covered with substances or other objects so that the airways are
blocked.
This device must not be operated in an environment without adequate ventilation.
The device may only be operated when the housing is closed and all screws/Camlocs are rmly
tightened.
The device must always be secured with an additional safety device.
Ensure that the area below the spotlight is clear during installation, alteration and removal.
ATTENTION: This xture corresponds to protection class I. For this reason, this
spotlight must be connected to a mains socket with earthing contact.
!
ATTENTION: DAMAGE TO EYES! Do not look into the light source for long periods
during operation. This can be harmful to the eyes. Attention: potentially hazardous
radiation - Risk group 2 based on DIN EN 62471

P18 MK2 Wash
The P18 MK2 Wash has a DMX-in and DMX-out connector. Now connect the DMX output of
your controller to the 1st P18 MK2 Wash (Controller DMX-Out -> P18 MK2 Wash DMX-In). Then
the 1st P18 MK2 Wash with the 2nd P18 MK2 Wash (P18 MK2 WashDMX-Out -> P18 MK2
Wash DMX-In) and so on. In some cases it is advisable to insert a so-called end connector
(XLR connector with a 120 Ohm resistor between pin 2 and pin 3). Whether an end connector
is required depends on various factors, including the cable lengths used and the number of
devices. However, as long as no problems occur in the DMX line, this is not necessary.
4.4 Signal connections
The DMX cabling (signal lines) should be done with a 4-pin cable with shielding. We recommend
a DMX cable (110 Ohm, 4x0.22mm2), alternatively a 2-pole micro cable can be used. The plugs
and sockets are 5-pin XLR connectors, which can be purchased in specialist shops.
Pin assignment:
Pin1 = Ground/Shielding
Pin2 = DMX -
Pin3 = DMX +
Pin4 = not connected
Pin5 = not connected

Cable with shielding
4.4.1 DMX cabling
4.4.2 Ethernet cabling
Ethernet cabling can be done with standard network lines. The sockets on the device are Neutrik
etherCON sockets. Special cables with etherCON connectors are recommended by Neutrik. The
two sockets on the P18 MK2 Wash are connected to each other via a switch. Up to 10 devices
can be connected in series without any delay. Of course, the spotlights can also be supplied in a
star conguration via an external switch. The received signal can be output via DMX. To do this,
set the DMX OUTPUT CONFIG setting to ON in the PERSONALITY menu. After conrming with
ENTER, the spotlight emits the entire received universe.
4.4.3 Wireless reception
The P18 MK2 Wash is equipped as standard with a LumenRadio CRMX receiver for wireless
DMX. The receiver can process both DMX and RDM. If a cable and wireless connection are
connected to the P18 MK2 Wash, the cable connection has priority! The received signal can be
output via DMX. To do this, set the DMX OUTPUT CONFIG setting to ON in the PERSONALITY
menu. After conrming with ENTER, the spotlight emits the entire received universe.
ATTENTION: Make sure that there is no signal at the DMX input at the same time !!

P18 MK2 WasH
Display illumination as function display
The display illumination remains switched off during the reset. Slowly ashing display illumination
when "JB-Lighting" is displayed means no DMX signal is present.
A very rapidly ashing display illumination when "JB-Lighting" is displayed means that a new
error has been stored in the "ERROR LIST", also an error message in the display (e.g. *PAN
TIMEOUT) indicates this current error. This error occurs during this reset or in the operation
before. This error is now automatically set to "read", but remains in the "ERROR LIST".
A rapidly ashing display illumination shows an error in the "ERROR LIST" is still in it but has
already been conrmed or was automatically conrmed. Only when the error has been deleted
from the ERROR LIST does the P18 MK2 Wash start again without error signalling.
If errors occur again and again contact the dealer / distributor or our service department.
If the P18 MK2 Wash receives a DMX signal, the display illumination goes out after 30 seconds.
DMX addressing
In the main menu, the DMX address can be set directly by pressing the up/down keys.
Display operation via battery backup
By pressing the left button below the display, the conguration battery operation of the headlamp
is activated, so the headlamp can be congured without power. It is possible to congure all the

P18 MK2 WasH
CAMERA MODE - setting the repetition frequency of the LEDs
To avoid ickering during TV recordings, the P18 MK2 Wash can be adjusted from 50 Hertz (PAL,
Secam) to 60 Hertz (NTSC) for different camera systems. Flex mode is set when using different
camera systems or when shooting with mobile phone cameras or similar non-professional
cameras. AHighFlex mode is also available. In this mode, the repetition frequencies are set to 3
kHz, which is necessary to ensure smooth movements in dimmed lighting scenes. The factory
setting oftheP18 MK2 Wash is 60 Hertz. The changeover is also possible with the light mixing
console via thecontrol channel.
CURVES - setting dimmer, RGB/CMY, frost curve
Dimmer curve:
The dimmer curve can be changed from exponential (square) to linear. The “exponential” dimmer
curve (factory setting) causes the dimmer to fade in and out more smoothly.
RGB/CMY curve:
6 different curves can be set for the RGB / CMY curve. LINEAR and SQUARE INV., The square-
inv. curve causes a visually more even retraction. LINEAR MK1 and SQUARE INV. MK1, are the
two adapted curves on the P18 MK1. LINEAR LEGACY and SQUARE INV. LEGACY are the two
original curves of the P18 MK2 Wash, the square-inv.-legaycy curve was measured for e.g. ETC
consoles.
Frost curve:
The frost curves can be changed from invers exponential (square inv.) to linear. The “invers
exponential” frost curve causes the frost to fade in and out more smoothly.
COOLING MODE - adjustment of brightness and fan volume
In the COOLING MODE menu item you can set the fan control and thebrightness of the P18
MK2 Wash. The following settings are available.
THEATRE WHISPER: Brightness 30.000lm (model HP), volume 29dB(a). In this mode, the spot-
light runs at the same brightness up to an ambient temperature of 40°C. It is not necessary to
speed up the fans in this mode.
THEATRE SILENT: Brightness 33.500lm (model HP), from 40°C ambient temperature the spot-
light regulates thefans a little up thus remains that the brightness is always the same level.
STANDARD: Brightness 38.000lm (model HP), from an ambient temperature of approx. 36°C the
fans run to cool the LED accordingly. The brightness remains constant.
BOOST: Brightness 40000lm (model HP), the fans run a little stronger in this mode, from approx.
40° ambient temperature the fans run again accordingly.
LONGLIFE: Brightness 33.500lm (model HP), the fans run a little stronger in this mode, from ap-
prox. 40° ambient temperature the fans run again accordingly. We would recommend this mode
for permanent installations, as the LED module runs cooler and thus more “stress-free”.
Under IP ADDRESS -> DEFAULT IP this can be changed from the network 10.xxx.xxx.xxx to a
network 2.xxx.xxx.xxx. For your own self-denable IP address, you can set your own desired IP
address under IP ADDRESS -> USER-IP. This address is divided into BYTE1 to BYTE 4 and can
be set one after the other.
DMX MODE - setting the operation mode
The P18 MK2 Wash has 2 operating modes (see channel assignment page 21). All parameters
of P18 MK2 Wash can be operated via mode 1. However, all channels (except pan/tilt) are
