DESCRIPTION
The FXLD1218FR5I is a RGBWA LED lighting fixture.
It is suitable for stage, house of worship, entertainment
venues, and other artistic applications. It has several
stand-alone control modes and can operate via a
DMX512 external signal.
A double yoke enables the fixture to be operated in
several positions.
INSTALLATION
LOCATION
Locate the unit indoors in a well ventilated area away
from moisture and heat. Keep the vent holes clear.
Holes are provided on the yokes to install a lighting bar
pipe clamp. When hanging fixture, use a safety cable
to the provided safety eye inserted in the rear of the
fixture.
POWER CONNECTIONS
The FXLD1218FR5I has a blue turn and lock
connector for power input. A compatible power cable is
provided for connection to a 120 VAC, 15 Amp, 60Hz,
grounded service. Push the blue connector on the
cable straight into the blue connector on the unit and
twist approx. 1/8 turn clockwise to latch it.
The white turn and lock connector on the unit is used
to pass power on to another FXLD1218FR5I unit. A
mating white connector is also provided.
THE LINE CORD IS RATED FOR 7 AMPS MAXIMUM
THE SAFETY GROUND TERMINAL ON THE POWER
CABLE MUST BE USED.
DMX CONNECTIONS
A system using DMX control should be connected as a
chain of devices. In other words, the control signal
cable proceeds from the controller to the first receiving
device and then to others in one continuous chain.
The fixture has a DMX IN and a DMX OUT connector
to be used to connect the chain. The control cable
should NOT be split into a multiple run star
arrangement with a cable running from the controller
directly to each receiving device.
DMX CONNECTOR PIN ASSIGNMENTS
The FXLD1218FR5I receives a DMX signal on the 3
pin MALE connector on one side of the unit. The 3 pin
FEMALE connector is used to connect the next DMX
device on the control chain.
