1.3. Technical warnsigns and explanation
In order to prevent the risk of an electric shock, under no circumstances remove the cover/back
or open the unit in any way! No user serviceable parts are inside. Service, maintenance and repairs
should only be done by qualied service personnel or the manufacturer.
Dangerous uninsulated voltage inside the device can cause an electrical shock when opened by
unqualied personnel.
Important operating and maintenance instructions apply!
Do not operate this device in tropical climates.
CAUTION! Intense LED light source! Risk of eye damage. Do not look into the light source
The housing surface of the spotlight can heat up to temperatures as high as 70 °C in regular use. Ensure
that it is not possible to come into contact with the housing unintentionally. Always allow sufcient time
for the lamp to cool down before dismantling, carrying out maintenance work or charging etc..
The xture has an integrated, non-removable battery, do not attempt to remove the battery. Do not open
the headlamp. To replace the battery, take the device to an authorized service center.
Fully charge the battery again immediately after discharging. Batteries that are not fully charged lose
capacity and service life.
For short to medium-term storage of the headlamp, fully charge the battery.
If the headlamp will not be used for a longer period of time, use the "Storage" function inside the device
settings to charge the battery. This limits the maximum charging capacity to 40% and thus preserves
the life of the battery.
Do not charge the battery of the B.FLEX / B.FLEX mini headlamp at ambient temperatures below 0°C /
32°F and above 40°C / 104°F.
If the headlamps are charged inside a ightcase, the case lid must remain open during the entire charging
process in order to avoid heat accumulation.

2.2. B.FLEX/B.FLEX mini
The B.FLEX/B.FLEX mini is a battery driven, dual light source xture for professional use in indoor and outdoor ap-
plications such as wall washer, spotlight, deco-effect light and many more. The very narrow beam lens from centric
LED, in combination with various lters and the single pixel controllable HALO EFX ring gives room for unlimited
creativity. Due to the special designed dual-bayonet system all our one-size accessories like holographic lters,
glare-shields or creative adaptors such as FLEX Light Tubes, HAT and HALO can be combined and t tool-free to
all FLEX models. Thanks to the inner bayonet, lters can be changed easily, from native 3° to circular 5°, 10°, 20°,
and elliptical 5°x20° or 5°x30°. A special batwing lter creates a V-shaped beam as a wall wash effect for even
more creativ effects. One central high-power LED, in combination with twenty-four ultra-bright SMD LEDs create
amazing, bi-color effects in wall-wash and deco-light applications. Due to its single pixel control, ROXX® HALO EFX
engine allows advanced and creative effect possibilities and a stunning eye-candy look. The individual LED´s can be
controlled by any DMX source, or by using our internal preprogrammed Macro patterns and chasers. The versatile
tool for wall-wash, bi-color, eye-candy effects and light tubes. The individual LED´s can be controlled by any DMX,
Wireless DMX (Lumenradio®CRMX), via bluetooth by ROXX.APP, or by using our internal preprogrammed Macro
patterns and chasers. 6 different sized, white light tubes can be attached to the FLEX series, creating stunning deco
effects. Combining the two light sources will create spectacular fading colors or re effects, due to the different ra-
diation angles. To prevent the B.FLEX/B.FLEX mini from theft a Kensington Security Slot is built inside.

4. INSTALLATION & SETUP
4.1 Physical Installation and Rigging
ROXX B.FLEX/B.FLEX mini may be installed in any orientation. For this purpose the product provides several options:
Standing:
For vertical high beam illumination like typical wall washing effects, the xture is designed to use directly without
optional Yoke. An integrated tilt screw allows adjustments up to 12°.
The optional xtures yoke with its implemented rubber feet is designed to ensure a secure stand on nearly every
plane surface with every possible angle/orientation of the lamp´s head. Please take care that supporting surfaces
are loadable and stable.
Hanging:
A centric hole on the yoke´s bottom (d=13mm / 0,51 inch) provides a mounting point for more rigging options like
a (Mini-) TV Spigot, to use the B.FLEX/B.FLEX mini on a tripod or for example with a superclamp.
