1. OVERVIEW
Ion 440 3-in-1
Moving head that accomplish spot, wash and beam
functions, featuring a 2º-34º linear zoom.
Ion 440 3-in-1 is a versatile moving head that ac-
complish spot, wash and beam functions, featuring
a 2º-34º linear zoom. Powered by an Osram Sirius®
HRI 440W lamp, the xture achieves an outstanding
748,000 Lux @ 16 feets in its beam function, with a 2º
beam angle. Ideal for the most demanding applica-
tions, the unit is equipped with a smooth CMY color
mixing system that, in addition to its 13 dichoric lters
and 3200K CTO lter, enables endless chromatic com-
binations. On the other hand, Ion 440 3-in-1 sports a 6
rotating, indexable and interchangeable gobo wheel,
a 18 static gobo wheel, 3/6 facet rotating prism, iris
& frost lter. With Rapid and precise movements,
advanced RDM function & auto-focus, a capability
that guarantees a really crisp projection at any beam
angle, Ion 440 3-in-1 is not only powerful and versatile;
it’s a complete solution for lighting designers.

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: 31/32/18/20,
if we set the mode at standard 31 channels mode,
and there are several models need to be inde-
pendently controlled, we just simply address rst
xture at 1, and second xture at 32, third one at
63, 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 xtures. Display is ashing when no DMX
signal is received.
DMX addressing
Connection: use DMX cable with 5 pin XLR-plugs
to connect the controller with the xture or one
xture with another.
