DMX-512 Connection
This fixture is equipped with an electronic power supply that will let the unit operate from 100V to 240V from 47Hz to 63Hz
The fixture is equipped with 3 pin and 5 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.
DMX—input DMX—output
1. Shield
2. Signal (-)
3. Signal (+)
Caution!
At the last fixture the DMX signal needs to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120
Ohm resistor 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

2) There must not be any deformations on the housing, fixation and installation spots (ceiling, suspension, trussing).
3) The electronic power supply cables must not show any damages, material fatigue (e.g. porous cables) or sediments. Further
instructions depending on the installation spot and usage have to be adhered by a skilled installer and any safety problems
have to be removed.
Note: There is no serviceable parts inside the device except for the LED’s. Maintenance and service operations are to be carried

When rigging a unit it is very important that you follow common safety procedures. Rigging requires extensive experience includ-
ing but not limited to calculating working loads, material being used and periodic safety inspections. If you lack these qualifica-
tions, do not attempt the installation yourself, instead use a professional structural rigger.
When rigging the unit always be secured with a secondary safety attachment. The installation location of the projector has got to
be built in the way that it can hold 10 times the weight for 1 hour with out any harming. Installation should be checked at least
one time a year by a skilled person.
