1. Attention
The unit must be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with all national and local electrical and
construction codes and regulations.
The unit was designed for indoor use only.
Do not install the unit near highly inflammable liquids or materials.
Do not allow anything to rest on the unit.
Do not install the unit near an open flame.
Do not install the unit in dirty, dusty or badly ventilated location.
Avoid looking directly into the light beam at close range!
A ceiling (structure) intended for installation of the unit(s) must safely hold at least 5 times the weight of the unit(s)
fastened on it.
The product (covers and cables) must not be exposed to a high frequency electromagnetic field higher than 3V/m.
Immunity of the equipment is designed according to the standard EN 55035 Electromagnetic compatibility of
multimedia equipment - Immunity requirements.
Emission of the equipment complies with the standard EN55032 Electromagnetic compatibility of multimedia
equipment – Emission Requirements according to class B.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15
of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

3. Installation
The Ambiane SP16 Surface Mount must be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with all national and
local electrical and construction codes and regulations.
Always switch off power supply of the control unit before connecting or disconnecting the control unit or the
light unit.
The lower ceiling (or another structure) intended for installation of the Ambiane(s) SP16 Surface Mount must
safely hold at least 5 times weight of the Ambiane(s) SP16 Surface Mount placed on it.
1. Prepare a circular opening in the lower ceiling. Max. thickness of the lower ceiling material can be 20 mm.
2. Place the control unit (1) above the ceiling through the ceiling opening and fasten it by means of
two holes in the housing of the control unit and suitable fasteners.
3. Install the terminal block (2) on the supply cable connect it to the PCB RB 3729 of the control unit (1).
4. Install the terminal block (3) on the DMX cable and connect it to the PCB RB 3729 of the control unit (1).
5. Install the terminal block (4) on the LED unit cable and connect it to the PCB RB 3729 of the control unit (1).
6. Install another terminal blocks on cables according to requirements of current installation.

The primary power input serves for a standard power (e.g. Ambiane Power AP).
The secondary power input serves for a backup power (in case that primary power failed).
If both power inputs are under voltage, the primary power has a priority and the secondary power is disabled. In
case of primary power loss, the secondary power is enabled.
If the fixture is supplied via the secondary power, the light output of the fixture is a white colour 3200K (RGBW, TW
version) and its light intensity can be set by a trimmer (7).
7. Set the DIP switch (6) according to your operation mode. This DIP switch is accessible by aperture (5) in the cover
of the control unit (1).
The fixture can be controlled by one of the following methods: DMX 512
DALI
0-10V (PW or TD version only)
The fixture is equipped with two DMX and DALI connection blocks (on the PCB RB 3729) for easy connection to a
DMX or DALI chain (In/Out method).

4. DMX and DALI address setting and control
The DIP switch on the control PCB (RB3729) allows you to set DMX address and run a test light.
DIP 10 - if it is switched to ON=test light (the fixture lights at 3200K (for RGBW and TW version))
DIP 11 - has to be switched to OFF position to receive DMX 512 and DALI, position ON=0-10V control
Note: If DIP 11=OFF (fixture is controlled by DMX and DALI), the last coming command switches the fixture to the
corresponding operation mode (DMX operation by a DMX command, DALI operation by a DALI command). E.g. the
fixture stays in a DALI operation and last coming command is a DMX command which switches the fixture to DMX
operation. Next command is a DALI command and switches the fixture to the DALI operation etc.
If you need the permanent DALI operation, you have to send a DALI command 8 to the fixture.
DMX control
The DMX start address, is the first channel used to receive instructions from the DMX controller. The address may
be any channel from 1 to 512. DMX address can be set either by DIP switch or by RDM. DMX address set by RDM
overwrites address set by DIP switch and vice versa. The green LED on PCB signals way of DMX address setting:
LED lights-DMX address is set by means of the DIP switch.
LED does not light-DMX address is set by means of RDM.
The DIP 11 has to be set to OFF position.
Example of DMX addresses:
