INSTALLATION AND SET UP
1. Power Requirements
The SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaires operate on AC input voltages from 100 to 240 VAC.
WARNING! SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaires do not contain an ON/OFF switch. Always disconnect power
input cable to completely remove power from the luminaire when not in use.
AC Power Operation
When connected to an AC source, the unit operates on 100 to 240 volts AC (+/- 10%, auto-ranging). The luminaire
contains an auto-ranging power supply. Each luminaire can draw up to 180 Watts.
WARNING! Maximum amount of fixtures that may be daisy-chained is (A) 10 units 100 ~ 120VAC or (B) 20 units
230 ~ 240VAC (10 Amps).
Note: For wiring of AC input connector, refer to "Connecting SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaires to AC
Power" on page 7.
2. Connecting Power
Units can be powered in one of two ways:
• Direct connection to a AC power source using an AC input cable. For wiring of AC input connector, refer to "Con-
necting SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaires to AC Power" on page 7.
• Connection from the AC output of another SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaire. When using this method, it is
very important not to connect any other type of equipment device.
WARNING! Only connect other SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaires to the AC Output (Thru) connector of a
SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaire.

Connecting SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaires to AC Power
If the unit is supplied with an AC input cable but you did not order an AC input connector, Table 2 describes how to
connect power to your SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaire. Field wiring of the SL WASH 180 RGBW LED
Luminaire is straight forward. A total of 3 wires/conductors need to be brought to the unit. The following wiring
scheme is required:
Table 2: SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaire AC Input Connections
Figure 3: SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaire AC Input & Output Connections
CAUTION: In the event the AC input cable of this luminaire is damaged, it must be replaced, by the user, with an
approved cable through an Authorized Showline Dealer or Service Center.

3. Connecting to the DMX512 Network
Basic DMX512 installation consists of connecting multiple SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaires together (up to
32 luminaires) in "daisy-chain" fashion. A cable runs from the control console (or DMX512 control source) to the
DMX connector on the first SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaire. Another cable runs from the other DMX
connector on the first unit to a DMX connector on the next SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaire (or DMX512
device to be controlled).
Figure 4: SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaire DMX512 Input / Output Connections
Note: For more information on DMX512 networking and systems, refer to "Additional Resources for DMX512" on
page 1. For SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaire DMX Mapping, refer to "DMX CONTROL" on page 19.

Harmonize Color Calibration 17

4. Harmonize Color Calibration
Harmonize is a proprietary, advanced LED color matching system,
consisting of 3 correction modules: RGB, RGBW and Cool White/Warm
White. Every Showline fixture undergoes rigorous testing to provide you
with consistent control of color and intensity as well as output of the highest
quality.
When enabled either via DMX or the fixture's menu, the Harmonize
technology will ensure that colors match from fixture-to-fixture and pixel-to-
pixel. As the Harmonize system matches Showline products, they will all
operate in the same color space. Use the Harmonize system when perfect
color matching is an essential requirement.
Note: When attempting to achieve the most saturated colors possible,
disable the Harmonize color calibration.
5. Dimming Curve Selection
Through the menu, you are able to select one of four dimming curves:

18 OPERATION AND PROGRAMMING Sh wline
6. Master / Slave Operational Mode
The Master / Slave Operational Mode allows one SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaire to act as the "Master" unit
and all other connected units are controlled by this unit. When a unit is set to "Slave" mode, it will only listen to and
follow any commands sent from a "Master" unit. Only one "Master" unit is allowed in this type of operation.
To setup a master / slave network:
Step 1. Set the first device in the DMX512 chain to Master Mode through the unit’s menu system.
Step 2. Set all other connected units to Slave Mode.
Step 3. The master unit can be controlled via DMX512, RDM or through standalone operation (self-contained
network utilizing on-board effects). The slave units will mimic the master unit’s operation in all cases.
Note: For more information on DMX512 networking and systems, refer to "Additional Resources for DMX512" on
page 1. For SL WASH 180 RGBW LED Luminaire DMX Mapping, refer to "DMX CONTROL" on page 19.
