The IP rating is commonly expressed as IP (Ingress Protection) is followed by 2 numbers (i.e. 65)
where the numbers define the fixture rating. The first number indicates the size of a particle that can
enter the fixture.. The second number indicates the extent of protection against water entering the
fixture. An IP65 rating in this fixture indicates that dust particles can not enter the fixture. And there is
protection against powerful water spray from entering the fixture from any direction.

Caution!
1. Do not connect fixture to a dimmer system.
2. This unit has Auto switching power supply. It will respond to 110V or 220V automatically
3. This unit must be earthed. (electronically grounded)
The occupation of the connection-cable is as follows:
This fixture is equipped with an electronic power supply that will let the unit operate from 100V to 240V from 50Hz to 60Hz
The fixture is equipped with Neutrik NC3FXX-HD and NC3MXX-HD IP 67 3 pin XLR Sockets for DMX input and output.
The sockets are wired in parallel. Only use a shielded twisted pair cable designed for RS-485 and 3 pin XLR plugs and
connectors in order to connect the controller with the fixture or the fixture with another.
Caution!
At the last fixture the DMX signal needs to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 Ohm re-
sistor between the (-) and the (+) signal into a 3 pin XLR plug and plug it in to the last fixture on
the signal run. Pre-manufactured terminator plugs are available for
purchase from your Mega-Lite dealer (P-DMX-T).
