1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
PxArt+ Frame is a professional cropping LED illuminator for the lighting of museum exhibitions or
trade fair displays.
The precise cropping system allows you to control the luminous flux and adjust the illumination
range to the size and position of the displayed object. Thanks to the application of the latest
semiconductor COB type SSL LED light source and advanced control electronics, a high
performance illuminator was made, which fulfils very high demands concerning museum
exhibition and trade display lighting applications. Its most important advantages include the
possibility of precise cropping of the displayed objects, total lack of ultraviolet radiation emission,
traces of infrared radiation, very high colour rendering index (CRI), and very large brightness at
small energy consumption.
®
The device features a holder allowing for its quick assembly on GLOBAL Trac Pulse Control
tracks. An individual address assigned to each illuminator allows for adjustment of brightness
regardless of the settings of other illuminators.
Thanks to the press buttons located on a lamp housing, it is also possible to control the
illuminators manually (e.g. in case of connecting a lamp to a frame without the control lines).
A high output LED was used in the lamp with an effective control system. Thanks to this, the lamp
features small heat emission.
By using an additional PX277 device (PxArt Controller Settings), you can set all parameters of the
device and read the information on the time and temperature of the lamp.
The PX378 illuminator supports the DMX-RDM protocol.
2. SAFETY CONDITIONS

Therefore it is necessary to observe the following:
1. Installation, particularly power connection, should be performed by a person holding the
appropriate qualifications, according to instruction manual.
2. Lamp can be connected only to grid, which has protecting instalation in working order (3-wire
grid).
3. All the conductors should be protected against mechanical and thermal damage.
4. In the event of damaging any conductor, it should be replaced with a conductor of the same
technical data and attestations.
5. Device with visible mechanical damage cannot be connected to the mains.
6. All repairs, should be made with cut off power supply.
7. The device should be strictly protected against water and other liquids.
8. All sudden shocks, particularly dropping, should be avoided.
o o
9. The device cannot be used in places with temperature lower than 2 C or higher than 40 C.
10. The device cannot be turned on in places with humidity exceeding 90%.
11. Clean with damp cloth only - lamp should be made with cut off power supply.

There are several versions of the PX378 lamp which are different from each other in a colour
rendering index, colour temperature and colour of the housing.
Below there is a description of designations of PX378 models with explanation:
PX378-UYY-Z
U - CRI colour rendering index
X - 95
8 - 80
9 - 90
YY - Colour temperature
30 - 3000K
50 - 5000K
Z - Lamp housing colour
1 - grey
2 - black
3 - white
Example of lamp designation:
PX378-930-2

The dimming of the lamp brightness occurs when the temperature is above 70°C, which prevents
the device from overheating. If the device reaches a temperature of 90°C, the power of the lamp
will be totally reduced. The light is then switched automatically in the event of temperature drop
below the maximum temperature (90°C). The higher the temperature of the device, the greater is
the brightness dimming.

The lamp has been equipped with a button which allows for changing the brightness level. The
button has been placed at the bottom part of the junction box, above the lamp reflector.
The layout of the button and connectors for connecting the PX277 programmer has been shown
in the figure below:
6. MANUAL CHANGE OF LAMP SETTINGS

Over the illuminator, there is a LED informing about the lamp condition.
Depending on the situation, the LED signals the following messages:
! lamp starting – rapid blinking of the LED for 2 s,
! DMX signal receipt – slow blinking of the brightness adjustment press button (with frequency
of 1Hz) for the first minute after the receipt of the DMX signal,
! after starting up of the lamp with the lack of the DMX signal – the LED lights (continuously) for
1 minute,
! damage of a temperature sensor module – the LED does not go off after one minute.
In order to reduce brightness, a relevant adjustment key must be held pressed for a while. If the
LED starts blinking during the adjustment, it means that the marginal level has been reached
(minimal or maximal), then the adjustment direction is reversed.
It is possible to reverse the adjustment direction without reaching the marginal levels, e.g. while
increasing the lamp lighting brightness release the key, the LED will signal reversing of the
adjustment direction with a single blink, the pressing of the adjustment key again will result in
dimming (diminishing of brightness) of the lamp.
During the operation of the lamp, the LED remains off (except the situations described above).
7. COOPERATION WITH PX277 SETTINGS CONTROLLER
Lamp settings can be changed by connecting it with the PX277 PxArt Settings Controller.
On setting the connection, the PX378 will start up again, as a result of which the LEDs go off for a
moment and the LED informing about the DMX signal condition blinks for 2 s.
On starting up the device, the screen displays its name. The main menu allows for the viewing of
many parameters of the PxArt series lamps and changing of the following options: brightness
address, scene brightness, smoothing, altering of smoothing time and return to factory settings.
Moreover, it is possible to review the lighting time and lamp operation time (the lamp total
operation time, also without lighting up the LEDs), information concerning the minimal, maximal
and current temperature reached by the lamp.
The PxArt Settings Controller allows for checking the version number of the software installed in
the lamp, its serial number and model.
Navigation in the menu is effected by using the controller keys located under the screen. The
"escape" key enables entering a higher level in the device controls, while the "next" and
"previous" keys are used for moving on or back (or for increasing or decreasing of a value). The
"enter" key, instead, allows for entering the edition of the selected menu or acceptance of the
edited value.

8.2. Scene brightness
Lamps from PxArt series can work without using DMX control. In such case, PxArt Settings
Controller enables changing the scene brightness value. This value can be set between 0 to 255.
[Scene bright.] set to value 0 turns off the
stage and turns the value 255 to 100%.
Value 128 means the stage brightness is
50%. After changing the value of the stage
brightness, the operation has to be
confirmed by pressing "enter".

8.3. Smooth
The device also has the smoothing option which enables smooth brightness modifications. When
the function is turned off, the transitions between successive DMX values sent to the lamp
(responsible for brightness changes) occur smoothly, without visible jolts, which prevents light
"vibration" effects in the lighting systems.
The next two DMX values sent

8.4. Smooth time
When the PxArt Settings Controller time smoothing function is active, it allows for changing the
smoothing time value. As a result it enables an acceleration or deceleration of the brightness
parameter change. Maximum available value is 2000 [ms] and minimum is 10 [ms].
[Smooth time] makes it possible to
change the time parameter at which
subsequent different DMX signal values
sent to the lamp are smoothed among
themselves. The user may set the
