ION 280F
Beam moving head powered by the famous Osram
Sirius® HRI 280W lamp.
ION 280F is a beam moving head powered by the
famous Osram Sirius® HRI 280W lamp. Thanks to its
advanced optical system, this moving head achieves
a razor-edge 1.3º beam angle, dening notoriously
its beam. With a luminous ux of 170.000 Lux @ 32
. the xture easily stands out on larger-scale stages
and in the most demanding applications. Ion 280F
sports 14 dichroic lters + open, 14 static & indexable
gobos, frost lter and an 8-facet rotating prism. Last
but not least - thanks to its 3 phase motor - Ion 280F
is capable of extremely fast & precise movements.

5. DMX CONNECTION AND DMX PROTOCOL
The device is controlled by universal DMX 512 pro-
tocol, DMX address is the start channel used to re-
ceive instructions from the external controller. For
independent control, each xture must be assigned
its unique address control channels. For example,
this device has four channel modes: 11/13, if we set
the mode at standard 13 channels mode, and there
are several models need to be independently con-
trolled, we just simply address rst xture at 1, and
second xture at 12, third one at 23, etc.
If the devices have the same address, they will be-
have synchronically.
DMX addressing is limited, don’t set the address so
high that without enough control channels for the
xtures.
Display is ashing when no DMX signal is received.
This device is equipped with 3-pins DMX in and
out sockets only.
Pin 1 = GND | Pin 2 = Signal (-) | Pin 3 = Signal (+)
The termination is prepared by soldering a 120Ω
resistor between pins 2 and 3.
