OVERHEAD RIGGING
•Important: The installation must be carried out by qualified service personal only. Improper
installation can result in serious injuries and/or damage to property. Overhead rigging requires
extensive experience! Working load limits should be respected, certified installation materials
should be used, the installed device should be inspected regularly for safety.
•Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during rigging, de-rigging
and servicing.
•The device should be installed out of reach of people and outside areas where persons may walk by or be
seated.
•Before rigging, make sure the installation can hold a minimum point load of 10times the device’s weight.
•Always use a certified safety cable that can hold 12times the weight of the device when installing the unit.
This secondary safety attachment should be installed in a way that no part of the installation can drop
more than 20cm if the main attachment fails.
•The device should be well fixed; a free-swinging mounting is dangerous and may not be considered!
•Don’t cover any ventilation openings as this may result in overheating.
•The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by
an expert before using them for the first time. The installations should be inspected every year by a skilled
person to be sure that safety is still optimal.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
Important: The electrical installation should be carried out by qualified personal only,
according to the regulations for electrical and mechanical safety in your country.
Electrical installation for 1 standalone unit:
•Insert the mains cable. The unit starts working immediately in the last selected mode.
•Refer to chapter HOW TO SETUP to learn how to switch between the different working modes.
Electrical installation for two or more units in master/slave:
•Connect several units together using good quality balanced microphone cables. The unit that has no
cable connected to its DMX-input is the “master”, the others are the slave units.
•Make sure that all units are connected to the mains.
•Refer to chapter HOW TO SETUP for more information.
Electrical installation for two or more units in DMX-mode:

ENGLISH USER MANUAL
JB SYSTEMS®5/9 LED FAN RGB
•The DMX-protocol is a widely used high speed signal to control intelligent light equipment. You need to
“daisy chain” your DMX controller and all the connected units with a good quality balanced cable.
•To prevent strange behavior of the light effects, due to interferences, you must use a 90Ω to 120Ω
terminator at the end of the chain. Never use Y-splitter cables, this simply won’t work!
•Make sure that all units are connected to the mains.
•Each light effect in the chain needs to have its proper start address so it knows which
commands from the controller it has to decode. In the section HOW TO SETUP you
will learn how to set the DMX addresses. If for example you use the 4 channel DMX
mode, a possible address setup could be: unit1 = 001 ~ unit2 = 005 ~ unit3 = 009 ~
unit4 = 013 ~ etc.
