DIMENSIONS DIAGRAM
SAMPLE WIRING DIAGRAM
Following is a sample wiring diagram for a multiple fixture installation. Note
that the final fixture must have a DMX Terminator plugged into the DMX
Out connector.

7
DMX TERMINATION
As with all DMX devices, the last unit in any chain must have
a DMX terminator connected to the DMX Out connector If
using just a single light, connect a DMX terminator to the
DMX Out connector.
A DMX terminator is a DMX plug with a 120-ohm, 1/4-watt resistor soldered
between pins 2 and 3.
CONTROLS AND MENU DISPLAY
The 4-digit LED display indicates the mode and the value for the selected
function or mode. When the light is first plugged in, the display will show
the last DMX channel number set (d001 by default).
Press the MENU button to access the menu system.
Press the ENTER button to edit the currently displayed mode.
Press the UP button to increase the value of the selected function or
mode. Press and hold the button to rapidly increase the displayed
value. The list will cycle back to the beginning after the maximum
value is reached.
Press the DOWN button to decrease the value of the selected
function or mode. Press and hold the button to rapidly decrease the
displayed value. The list will cycle back to the end after the minimum
value is reached.

8
Once the desired value is displayed, press the ENTER button to set
that value for the displayed function or mode and allow for selection
of another function or mode.
If you want to discard any changes made to the value of the selected
function or mode, press the MENU button to cancel editing.

nodE FUNCTION
The nodE function serves as a speed limiter for manual dims and fades.
When set to nod0, any manual dims or fades will occur in real time,
meaning that the light will dim or fade as fast as you move the slider. The
other nodE values (1-4) are progressively slower than real time. It is
recommended to use the nod1 value if using a low-res DMX controller.

MASTER/SLAVE MODE
Whenever the light is set to a mode other than a DMX address of Slave
mode (SL.AU), the fixture is in Master mode. For example, when set to
Sound Activation mode (So.UA), it is in Master mode. You can daisy-chain
additional fixtures to the Master fixture using 3-pin DMX cables. All other
connected fixtures must be set to Slave mode (SL.UA) and will perform the
same functions as the Master fixture. Note that the final fixture in the daisy-

10
chain must have a DMX terminator connected to the DMX Out connector.
Note that you cannot use a DMX controller when connecting multiple
lights in Master/Slave mode.
DMX CONTROL
When the light is set to a DMX address it will respond to signals from a
DMX controller. The number and complexity of the signals it can respond to
correspond directly to the number of channels selected. The following
tables show the functions and values for each channel in the four different
channel modes (3, 6, 7, and 8).

TROUBLESHOOTING
Q1: The light does not turn on and the menu will not display.
A1: Check the power cable to ensure it is properly plugged in. Ensure that
the power outlet is live by plugging in a different device.
Q2: The light will not turn on, but the menu does display.
A2: Using the menu, ensure that all the color dimmers are not set to 000.
Q3: The light does not respond to DMX commands.
A3: Ensure that the light is set to DMX mode with a valid DMX address.
Check for address conflicts with other devices. Try swapping out the
DMX cable with a known good one. Ensure that there is a DMX
terminator connected to the DMX Out connector of the final fixture in
the daisy-chain. Verify that the DMX controller is operating properly by
using it with another DMX device.
