4. How To Control The Unit
You can operate the unit in four ways:
1. Master/slave built-in preprogram function
2. Universal DMX controller
3. DMX 512 Configurations
4. DMX 512 Connection

10B
4.1 Master/Slave Built In Preprogrammed Function
By linking the units in master/slave connection, the first unit will control the other units to
give an automatic, sound activated, synchronized light show. This function is good when you
want an instant show.
4.2 DMX Controller
Using a universal DMX controller to control the units, you have to set DMX address from 1 to
512 channels so that the units can receive the DMX signal.
Press the MENU button to show DMX Address on the display. Press the ENTER button
and the display will blink. Use the DOWN and UP buttons to change the DMX512 address.
Once the address has been selected, press and keep the ENTER button to store. To go
back to the functions without any change press the MENU button or wait for 8 seconds to
exit menu mode.
Please refer to the following diagram to address your DMX512 channels for the first 4 units:

DMX Configuration:

13B
4.4 DMX512 Connection
EV-MTX32:
1. If you are using a controller with a 3 pin DMX output, you need to use a 3 to 5 pin
adapter-cable.
2. In the last unit, the DMX cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 ohm
1/4W resistor between pin 2(DMX-) and pin 3(DMX+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in
the DMX-output of the last unit.
3. Connect the unit together in a `daisy chain`with the XLR plug from the output of the unit
to the input of the next unit. The cable can not branched or split to a `Y` cable. DMX 512
is a very high-speed signal. Inadequate or damaged cables, Bad soldered joints or
corroded connectors can easily distort the signal and shut down the system.
4. The DMX output and input connectors pass-through to maintain the DMX circuit, when

14B
power is disconnected to the unit.
5. Each fixture needs to have an address set to receive the data sent by the controller. The
address number is between 0-511 (usually 0 & 1 are equal to 1).
6. 3 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+)
5 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+)
Pin 4/5: Not used.
5. Troubleshooting
Following are a few common problems that may occur during operation. Here are
some suggestions for easy troubleshooting:
A. The unit does not work, no light output and the fan does not work
1. Check the power connection and main fuse.
2. Check the power on LED.
B. Not responding to DMX controller
1. DMX LED should be on. If not, check DMX connectors, cables to see if linked properly.
2. If the DMX LED is on and no response to the channel, check the address settings and
DMX polarity.
3. If you have intermittent DMX signal problems, check the pins on cables and fixtures.
4. Try another DMX controller.
5. Check if the DMX cables run near or run alongside high voltage cables that may cause
damage or interference to the DMX interface circuit.
C. No response to the sound
1. Make sure the unit is not receiving a DMX signal.
2. Check if the sound sensitively is too low.
D. One of the channels is not working
1. The cable connected to the PCB may broken .
6. Fixture Cleaning
The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out
periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in
which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or particularly dirty surroundings can cause greater
accumulation of dirt on the unit’s optics.
Clean with soft cloth using normal glass cleaning fluid.
Always dry the parts carefully.

15B
Clean the external optics at least every 20 days. Clean the internal optics at least
every 30/60 days.
