DESCRIPTION
The FXLD127FR5I is a RGBWA LED lighting fixture. It
is suitable for stage, houses 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. Use a safety cable when hanging the
fixture.
POWER CONNECTIONS
The FXLD127FR5I 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 FXLD127FR5I 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 should proceed 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 FXLD127FR5I uses 3 pin XLR type connectors.
DMX is received on the 3 pin MALE connector on the
back of the unit. The 3 pin FEMALE connector is used
to connect to the next DMX device on the control
chain. The table below shows the pin assignments for
the 3 pin DMX cable.
