levels. Please see the table shown below for more information.
A with locking IEC female connector attached is
supplied (not supplied with IP Zones). To unlock the IEC
connector, pull/side the red tab towards yourself then pull

which will inform you of how many fixtures you may
put on the outputs of different ChromaZones.
The has numerous chases and effects built in
making it possible to achieve fantastic effects without
programming. These internal effects can be selected via the UIM
on the lid of the unit in Stand Alone
mode or from a controller using a digital ( igital ultiple )
signal.
When receiving a signal the can operate in 3, 6, 9, 10, 36,
42 or 46 Channel Modes Please see the lid printing page for
details of these Operating Modes, how to select them, Channel
Listings, and further information.
Each ChromaFixture requires a +24VDC supply and three 0 to
+10V control signals to control the level of Red, Green and Blue.
These control signals and the low voltage power are provided by
the CZ12 and CZ6 controllers which can drive up to 12 or 6
ChromaFixtures respectively.

Two 5 pin XLR sockets (in/thru) are

From March 2008 a 4 pin XLR output socket is fitted to the
. This can provide 24VDC Low Voltage Power
and DMX to feed a (No Power) and may be
used when the is not fully loaded to its 200W
limit.
This is the most economical control solution when many low
power fixtures are to be driven with individual DMX control, for
example in Low Resolution Video displays.
The standard can power up to five
fittings per output or up to 12
fixtures, but all the fixtures on one output would do the same thing.
Now, a number of and low power fittings
may be "slaved" from one powered until its
power limit of 200W is reached. E.g. up to 4
and 60 fixtures, or 11 and 144
could be connected to one powered
- all individually controllable.
The pin connections of the 4 Pin XLR socket are as follows:
LV POWER: Pin 1 = 0V / Chassis Earth Pin 4 = +24VDC
DMX SIGNAL: Pin 2 = Signal Pin 3 = Signal
XLR4 "Scroller Cables" are used for interconnection.

are provided on the side of the zone, these represent the 6/12
output channels. Each connector provides the necessary power

This is a guide to aid you in the installation of the glands.
Drill a 14.0mm hole and tap to M16x1.5mm. Alternately drill a
hole to the size of 16.0mm and fix using the Gland Nut. When
installing the M12 Glands, ensure the Liquid Tight O-Ring is
placed on the gland before inserting gland in to enclosure.

Version No. 4.0 (MAIN micro 4.0 04-12-07 + UIM micro 1.0 07-03-05) has many exciting features. Two built in Chases
allowing superimposition of effects and cross fading between chases. Chase 1 and 2 use the same table of 31 chases but
there are differences to give you more choice - Chase 1 uses the ALL Red, Green and Blue Channels, 1, 2 & 3, to change
the colour of some chases (see table) while Chase 2 stays white and uses them to give a background colour. The chases
have a very wide range of speeds.
7 operating modes: 3, 6, 9, 10, 36, 42 and 46 Channel Modes.
A Master Dimmer Channel (Ch.10) for the 36 individual RGB channels, which may become a Global Grand Master for the

to install or operate this apparatus.
Keep this leaflet and the Product Instruction Leaflet for future reference.
Observe ALL warnings indicated by the symbol, both in the Product Instruction Leaflet
and on the apparatus.
Follow ALL instructions given in the Product Instruction and this Safety Leaflet. Failure to
do so may result in serious injury or death.
Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, auxiliary
outputs, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer (Pulsar Light of
Cambridge Ltd. UK).
Use only with the stand/bracket or other mounting arrangement specified in the Product
Instruction Leaflet. In case of doubt, consult with the manufacturer (Pulsar Light of
Cambridge Ltd. UK).
Unplug this apparatus before lightning storms or when unused for long periods.
Refer all servicing to suitably qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the
apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power supply cord or plug damaged,
liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been
exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
Clean only with a DRY cloth.
Protect the apparatus from dripping and splashing.
DO NOT place objects containing liquids on the apparatus.
DO NOT use this apparatus near water or in a condensing atmosphere, unless explicitly
stated in the Product Instruction Leaflet.
DO NOT block any of the ventilation openings. Install the apparatus as specified in the
