Installation
There are specific regulations like BGV C1 (old VBG 70) or country related regulations which
need to attend during the installation. The installation has to be handled by skilled persons
only!
Suspension device hast to be built and calculated in order to handle up to 10 times its
specific load limit over a time of one hour without permanent or harmful deformation.
Installation has to be done with a separate, independent suspension device like a safety
chain. A second suspension device has to be built in order to assure that in case of error no
part of an installation can fall off.
Trespassing the danger zone below the installation during the assembling is prohibited.
Installer has to take care of all safety and machinery installations are approved by authorized
persons before first operation or after changes before restarting.
Installer has to take care of all safety and machinery installations are approved by skilled
persons at least once a year.
Installer has to take care of all safety and machinery installations are approved by authorized
persons every four years during the acceptance inspection. Spotlight should ideally installed
outside peoples lounge area.
Attention
Installation overhead needs a high level of experience. This includes (but is not just limited
to) calculation and definition of load capacity, used installation material and regular safety
inspections of used material and the fixture itself. Never try to do the installation by yourself if
you are not qualified, instead you have to instruct a skilled installer. Inappropriate
installations can cause injuries and/or damage of property. Spotlight has to be installed
outside areas where people can touch it.
Professional truss system or similar licensed suspension systems have to be used if the
spotlight is used in suspension from ceiling or other constructions. Spotlights can never be
installed freely suspended!
Spotlights can cause injuries when fall off. If you are not trained in questions of safety for the
different kinds of installation do NOT install the spotlight! Assure that the mounting surface
can hold at least ten times the point load of the spotlight before installing the fixture.
Assure the specified safety distances to flammable material.
Attach the spotlight with its yoke and the use of a suitable hook/clamp to your truss system.
The therefor used opening has a diameter of about 12 mm. According to your installation
also similar but approved suspension devices are possible.
When installing the spotlight overhead make sure to safe the fixture by a safety chain which
is specified at least with a load limit of 12 times of the spotlights weight. Only safety chain
with approved connective can be used. Attach the safety chain to its designated opening and
attach it to the truss system or a similar and safe attachment point. Assure to close the
fasteners as specified.
To adjust the angle of the fixture open the locking screw, set the fixture in its position and
close it by hand.

Installation of the B EXPO350A
The device could be either put on a solid and even surface, or mounted upside down or
sideways like left picture.
The mounting place must be sufficient stable and be able to support a weight of 10 times of
the unit’s weight. When the fixture is hanged, always additionally secure the device with the
safety chain, fasten the safety rope at a suitable position so that the maximum fall of the
projector will be 20 cm.

DMX Mode
DMX addressing
The device is controlled by universal DMX 512 protocol, DMX address is the start channel
used to receive instructions from the external controller. For independent control, each fixture
must be assigned its unique address control channels. For example, this device has four
channel modes: 20/21/15/17, if we set the mode at standard 18 channels mode, and there
are several models need to be independently controlled, we just simply address first fixture at
1, and second fixture at 21, third one at 41, etc.
If the devices have the same address, they will behave synchronically.
DMX addressing is limited, don’t set the address so high that without enough control
channels for the fixtures.
Display is flashing when no DMX signal is received.
Connection
Use DMX cable with 5-pin XLR-plugs to connect the controller with the fixture or one fixture
with another.

Unique features
RDM, stand for “Remote Device Management”, with this function, users can realize remote
control of the device, such as remotely changing DMX address, check a lot of useful
information such as temperature, power consumption, fan speed. Etc. Every single device
has a unique RDM code before left factory to distinguish from each other, usually not
suggest users change this code freely.
Software upgrade function via DMX cable, if there is any new firmware for this device come
out, it can be upgraded simply via a software upgrade box, no need to change any
mechanical parts. The upgrade box is not included in the package, if need any further
assistance please just contact authorized dealers.
Hibernation, the device will enter sleeping mode if activated after a period of disconnecting
DMX signal to save the power consumption, and will return immediately as soon as the DMX
signal is sent again.
Display battery, this function is prepaid in the display PCB, users just need to install a normal
10440 600mAh 3.7V rechargeable lithium battery, then users could power on the display and
do setting without connect to main power.
Display back-up communication IC, there is a back-up communication IC installed in the
display PCB, so users could replace at once if the working one is broken, no need to wait
long time from service.
Display flip, by press up and down button for more than 3 seconds, the display will flip
automatically, this function is useful to read menu conveniently when device is hanged.
