1.2Unpacking Instructions
Immediately upon receiving a fixture, carefully unpack the carton, check the
contents to ensure that
all parts are present, and have been received in good condition. Notify the
shipper immediately and
retain packing material for inspection if any parts appear damaged from
shipping or the carton itself
shows signs of mishandling. Save the carton and all packing materials. In the
event that a fixture
must be returned to the factory, it is important that the fixture be returned in the
original factory box and packing.
1.3Safety Instructions
Please read these instructions carefully, which includes important
information about the installation, usage and maintenance?
* Please keep this User Guide for future consultation. If you sell the unit to another user, be sure that

2.5 Common Terms
The following are common terms used in intelligent light programming.
Blackoutis a state by where all lighting fixtures light output are set to 0 or off, usually on a temporary
basis.
DMX-512is an industry standard digital communication protocol used in entertainment lighting
equipment. For more information read SectionsDMX Primer and DMX Control Mode in the
Appendix.
Fixturerefers to your lighting instrument or other device such as a fogger or dimmer of which you can
control.
Programsare a bunch of scenes stacked one after another. It can be programmed as either a single
scene or multiple scenes in sequence.
Scenesare static lighting states.
Slidersalso known as faders.
Chasescan also be called programs. A chase consists of a bunch of scenes stacked one after
another.
Scannerrefers to a lighting instrument with a pan and tilt mirror; however, in the controller it
can be used to control any DMX-512 compatible device as a generic fixture.
Stand Alonerefers to a fixtures ability to function independently of an external controller and usually
in sync to music, due to a built in microphone.
Fadeslider is used to adjust the time between scenes within a chase.
Speedslider affects the amount of time a scene will hold its state. It is also considered a wait time.
Shutteris a mechanical device in the lighting fixture that allows you to block the lights path. It is often
used to lessen the intensity of the light output and to strobe.
Patchingrefers to the process of assigning fixtures a DMX channel or..
3.OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
3.1 Setup
3.1.1 SETTING UP THE SYSTEM
1) Plug the AC to DC power supply to the system back panel and to the mains outlet.
2) Plug in your DMX cable(s) to your intelligent lighting as described in the fixtures respective
manual. For a quick Primer on DMX see the •DMX Primer•section in the Appendix of this
manual.

3.1.2FIXTURE ADDRESSING
The DM-X10 is programmed to control 16 channels of DMX per fixture, therefore the fixtures you
wish to control with the corresponding FIXTURE buttons on the unit, must be spaced 16 channels
apart.

4.1DMX Primer
There are 512 channelsin a DMX-512 connection. Channelsmay be assigned in any manner. A
fixture capable of receiving DMX 512 will require one or a number of sequential channels. The user
must assign a starting address on the fixture that indicates the first channel reserved in the controller.
There are many different types of DMX controllable fixtures and they all may vary in the total number
of channels required. Choosing a startaddress should be planned in advance. Channelsshould
never overlap. If they do, thiswill result in erratic operationof the fixtures whose starting address is
setincorrectly. You can however, control multiple fixtures of the same type using the same starting
address as long as the intended result is that of unison movement or operation. In other words, the
fixtures will be slaved together and all respond exactly the same.
DMX fixtures are designed to receive data through a serial Daisy Chain. A Daisy Chain connection is
where the DATA OUT of one fixture connectsto the DATA IN of the nextfixture. The order in which
the fixtures are connected is not important and has no effect on how a controller communicates to
each fixture. Use an order that provides for the easiest and most direct cabling. Connect fixtures
using shielded two conductor twisted pair cable with three pin XLR male to female connectors. The
shield connection is pin 1, while pin 2 is Data Negative (S-) and pin 3 is Data positive (S+).
4.2 FIXTURE LINKING
DMX-OUTPUTDMX-OUTPUT
Caution: At the last fixture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder
a 120 resistor between Signal (-) and Signal (+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the
DMX-output of the last fixture.
In the Controller mode, at the last fixture in the chain, the DMX output has to be connected with a DMX
terminator. This prevents electrical noise from disturbing and corrupting the DMX control signals.
The DMX terminator is simply an XLR connector with a 120W (ohm) resistor connected across pins 2
and 3, which is then plugged into the output socket on the last projector in the chain.
The connections are illustrated below.
