4. How To Control The Unit
You can operate the unit in three ways:
1. Master/slave built-in preprogram function
2. Easy controller
3. Universal DMX controller
No need to turn the unit off when you change the DMX address, as new DMX address
setting will be effect at once. Every time you turn the unit on, it will show “KUDOS CM-150”
on the display and move all the motors to their ‘home’ position and you may hear some
noises for about 20 seconds. After that the unit will be ready to receive DMX signal or run
the built in programs.
4.1 Master/Slave Built In Preprogrammed Function
By linking the units in master/slave connection, the first unit will control the other units to
give an automatic, sound activated, synchronized light show. This function is good when
you want an instant show. You have to set the first unit in master mode Show Mode and
select show 1 or show 2 or show 3 or show 4 mode. Its DMX input jack will have nothing
plugged into it, and Its master LED will be constantly on and sound LED will flash to the
music. The other units will have to set in slave mode and select Slave 1 (normal) or Slave 2
(2 light show) mode, Their DMX cables plugged into the DMX input jacks (daisy chain) and
the slave led lights will constantly on.
15A
2-light show
In slave mode, Slave 1 means the unit works normally and Slave 2 means 2-light show. In
order to create a great light show, you can set Slave 2 on the second unit to get contrast
movement to each other, even if you have two units only.
4.2 Easy Controller
The easy remote control is used only in master/slave mode. By connecting
to the 1/4” microphone jack of the first unit, you will find that the remote
controller on the first unit will control all the other units in Stand by, and
Mode selection.

4.3 DMX Controller
By using a universal DMX controller to control the units, you will need to set DMX address
from 1 to 512 so that the units can receive DMX signal.
Press the MENU button up to when the DMX Address is showing on the display. Pressing
ENTER button and the display will blink. Use DOWN and UP button to change the DMX512
address. Once the address has been selected, press the ENTER button to setup, to go back
to the functions without any change press the MENU button again.Hold and press the
MENU button about one second or wait for one minute to exit the menu mode.

4.5 DMX512 Connection
1. If you using a controller with 5 pins DMX output, you need to use a 5 to 3 pin
adapter-cable.
2. At last unit, the DMX cable has to be terminated with a terminator (3-pin, CABL90),
(5-pin, CABL90). Solder a 120 ohm 1/4W resistor between pin 2(DMX-) and pin
3(DMX+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last unit.
3. Connect the unit together in a `daisy chain` by XLR plug from the output of the unit to
the input of the next unit. The cable can not branched or split to a `Y` cable. DMX 512 is
a very high-speed signal. Inadequate or damaged cables, soldered joints or corroded
connectors can easily distort the signal and shut down the system.
4. The DMX output and input connectors are pass-through to maintain the DMX circuit,
when one of the units’ power is disconnected.
5. Each lighting unit needs to have an address set to receive the data sent by the
23A
controller. The address number is between 0-511 (usually 0 & 1 are equal to 1).
6. The end of the DMX 512 system should be terminated to reduce signal errors.
7. 3 pin XLR connectors are more popular than 5 pin XLR.
3 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+)
5 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+), Pin 4/Pin 5:
Not used.
5. Troubleshooting
Following are a few common problems that may occur during operation. Here are
some suggestions for easy troubleshooting:
A. The unit does not work, no light and the fan does not work
1. Check the connection of power and main fuse.
2. Measure the mains voltage on the main connector.
3. Check the power on LED.
B. Not responding to DMX controller
1. DMX LED should be on. If not, check DMX connectors, cables to see if link properly.
2. If the DMX LED is on and no response to the channel, check the address settings and
DMX polarity.
3. If you have intermittent DMX signal problems, check the pins on connectors or on PCB
of the unit or the previous one.
4. Try to use another DMX controller.
5. Check if the DMX cables run near or run alongside to high voltage cables that may
cause damage or interference to DMX interface circuit.

24A
C. Some units don’t respond to the easy controller
1. You may have a break in the DMX cabling. Check the LED for the response of the
master/ slave mode signal.
2. Wrong DMX address in the unit. Set the proper address.
D. No response to the sound
1. Make sure the unit does not receive DMX signal.
2. Check microphone to see if it is good by tapping the microphone
E. One of the channels is not working well
1. The stepper motor might be damaged or the cable connected to the PCB is broken.
2. The motor’s drive IC on the PCB might be out of condition
25A
6. Fixture Cleaning
The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out
periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in
which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or particularly dirty surrounding can cause greater
accumulation of dirt on the unit’s optics.
!Clean with soft cloth using normal glass cleaning fluid.
!Always dry the parts carefully.
!Clean the external optics at least every 20 days. Clean the internal optics at least every
30/60 days.
