DESCRIPTION
The FXLE1232W is a LED ellipsoidal fixture suitable
for stage, disco, night club, and other artistic
applications. It has automatic stand alone control
modes and can operate via a DMX-512 external signal.
A mounting yoke enables the fixture to be operated in
various positions and orientation.
INSTALLATION
LOCATION
The FXLE1232W is rated IP20 and is intended for
INDOOR USE ONLY.
Locate the unit in a well ventilated area away from
moisture and heat. Maintain a minimum spacing of
20" between the unit and other objects. The maximum
ambient operating temperature is 45
º C (113 º F). 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 FXLE1232W has a line cord for connection to a
120 VAC, 15 Amp, 60Hz, grounded service. Do not try
to power the unit from a dimmer pack.
The safety ground pin on the power cord 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 a continuous
"daisy chain" fashion.
The FXLE1232W 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
There are two different connectors which can be used
for DMX control. They are both XLR type connectors.
Some units use 3 pin connectors. Others use 5 pin
connectors. The FXLE1232W receives a DMX signal
on the 3 pin MALE connector on the rear of the unit.
The 3 pin FEMALE connector is used to connect to the
next DMX device on the control chain.
If your console uses a 5 pin XLR connector you can
make up an adapter cable to accommodate this. The
table below shows the pin assignments for both 3 pin
and 5 pin XLR connectors.

DMX TERMINATION
A DMX chain should be terminated at the last
receiving device on the chain. This is done by
installing a commonly available 1/4 Watt, 120 Ohm
resistor across the DATA - and DATA + wires at the
last device. If you have only a few fixtures very close
together and a very short run to the controller then you
may be able to operate without the terminator.
OPERATION
A power ON/OFF switch is located at the rear of the
unit. A control panel on the back of the unit is used to
set the operating options. It consists of an LED display
and four buttons
(ESC, ENTER, DOWN, and UP).
Use UP and DOWN to scroll the available choices.
Push
ENTER when you reach the option you want to
check or set. The current setting for the option will be
shown. Use
UP and DOWN to change the setting.
Push
ENTER to invoke the new setting. Use ESC to
exit from the sub menus.
DMX OPERATION
Use the A - - - menu to set the unit DMX starting
address. The range is
r001 - r511.
NOTE
The current version of the FXLE1232W will not
respond to DMX addresses above 255 even though
the addressing menu allows selections up to 511.
The fixture uses two DMX channels allocated as
follows:
CHANNEL 1: Fixture Intensity (000 - 255)
CHANNEL 2: Strobe Control (000 - 255)
000 is Strobe OFF
DEMO MODE (dEnO)
The DEMO mode has 4 choices as follows:
SC00 External DMX control
SC01 Slow fade ON/OFF (stand alone operation)
SC02 Strobe effects (stand alone operation)
SC03 ON/OFF sequence (stand alone operation)
SC00 must be used when operating with an
external DMX controller.
If the unit was switched to another DEMO mode then it
must be returned to
SC00 and then a RESET (rESt)
must be done.
NAST MODE
This function is not currently supported.
RESET (rESt)
The reset function enables DMX operation after stand
alone operation.
Push ENTER when rESt is shown. The display will
show
OFF . Push UP to execute the reset. The display
will revert to show the DMX starting address.
