WARNING
Unpacking Instructions
Immediately upon receiving this product, carefully unpack the carton and check the contents to ensure
that all parts are present, and have been received in good condition. Notify the dealer 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.
Your shipment includes:
• Showtec Indigo 4500 LED with Volex IEC powercable 1,75m
• 2 brackets for truss mounting
•Safety cable
•User manual
LED Expected Lifespan
LEDs gradually decline in brightness over time. HEAT is the dominant factor that leads to the acceleration
of this decline. Packaged in clusters, LEDs exhibit higher operating temperatures than in ideal or singular
optimum conditions. For this reason when all color LEDs are used at their fullest intensity, life of the LEDs is
significantly reduced. It is estimated that a viable lifespan of 40,000 to 50,000 hours will be achieved
under normal operational conditions. If improving on this lifespan expectancy is of a higher priority, place
care in providing for lower operational temperatures. This may include climatic-environmental and the
reduction of overall projection intensity.

Installation
Remove all packing materials from the Indigo 4500 LED. Check that all foam and plastic padding is
removed. Connect all cables.
Do not supply power before the whole system is set up and connected properly.
Always disconnect from electric mains power supply before cleaning or servicing.
Damages caused by non-observance are not subject to warranty.
Set Up and Operation
Follow the directions below, as they pertain to your preferred operation mode.
Before plugging the unit in, always make sure that the power supply matches the product specification
voltage. Do not attempt to operate a 120V specification product on 230V power, or vice versa.
Connect the device to the main power supply. The device can be music-controlled by its built-in
microphone.
Control Modes
There are 4 modes: • Stand-alone (built-in programs)
• Sound-controlled
• Master/Slave
• DMX512 (14 Channels ADVANCED or 11 channel BASIC)
One Indigo (Built-in Programs)
1. Fasten the effect light onto firm trussing. Leave at least 0,5 meter on all sides for air circulation.
2. When the Indigo is not connected by a DMX-cable, it functions as a stand-alone device.
Please see page 13 for more information about the built-in programs.
One Indigo (Sound-control)
1.Plug the end of the electric mains power cord into a proper electric power supply socket.
2. Turn on the music. If the device is set to sound-control, then the Indigo will react to the beat of the
music. Please see page 13 for more information about the sound-control options.

8
Multiple Indigo’s (Master/Slave control)
1. Fasten the effect light onto firm trussing. Leave at least 0,5 meter on all sides for air circulation.
2. Use a 3-p XLR cable to connect the Indigo.
The pins:
1. Earth
2. Signal -
3. Signal +
3. Link the units as shown in (Fig. 3), Connect a DMX signal cable from the first unit's DMX "out"
socket to the second unit's "in" socket. Repeat this process to link the second, third, and fourth units.
You can use the same functions on the master device as described on page 13 (Built-in Programs,
or Music control). This means on the master device you can set your desired operation Mode
and all slave devices will react the same as the master device.
Multiple Indigo’s (Master/Slave control)
Fig. 3
Multiple Indigo’s (DMX Control)
1. Fasten the effect light onto firm trussing Leave at least 1 meter on all sides for air circulation.
2. Always use a safety cable.
3. Use a 3-p XLR cable to connect the Indigo‟s and other devices.

9
4. Link the units as shown in (figure 4), Connect a DMX signal cable from the first unit's DMX "out" socket to
the second unit's "in" socket. Repeat this process to link the second, third, and fourth units.
5. Supply electric power: Plug electric mains power cords into each unit's IEC socket, then plug the
other end of the mains power cord into proper electric power supply sockets, starting with the first unit.
Do not supply power before the whole system is set up and connected properly.

Note : Link all cables before connecting electric power
Fixture Linking
You will need a serial data link to run light shows of one or more fixtures using a DMX-512 controller or to
run synchronized shows on two or more fixtures set to a master/slave operating mode. The combined
number of channels required by all the fixtures on a serial data link determines the number of fixtures the
data link can support.
Important: Fixtures on a serial data link must be daisy chained in one single line. To comply with the
EIA-485 standard no more than 30 devices should be connected on one data link.
Connecting more than 30 fixtures on one serial data link without the use of a DMX optically
isolated splitter may result in deterioration of the digital DMX signal.
Maximum recommended DMX data link distance: 100 meters
Maximum recommended number of Indigo„s on a DMX data link: 30 fixtures
Data Cabling
To link fixtures together you must obtain data cables. You can purchase DAP Audio certified DMX cables
directly from a dealer/distributor or construct your own cable. If you choose to create your own cable
please use data-grade cables that can carry a high quality signal and are less prone to electromagnetic
interference.
DAP Audio Certified DMX Data Cables
• DAP Audio cable for allround use. bal. XLR/M 3 p. > XLR/F 3 p.
Ordercode FL01150 (1,5m.), FL013 (3m.), FL016 (6m.), FL0110 (10m.), FL0115 (15m.), FL0120 (20m.).
• DAP Audio cable for the demanding user with exceptional audio-qualities and connector made by
Neutrik®. Ordercode FL71150 (1,5m.), FL713 (3m.), FL716 (6m.), FL7110 (10m.).

The Indigo 4500 LED can be operated with a controller in control mode or without the controller in stand-
alone mode.
Control Panel

C. ENTER Button
Control Mode
The fixtures are individually addressed on a data-link and connected to the controller.
The fixtures respond to the DMX signal from the controller. (When you select the DMX address and save it,
the controller will display the saved DMX address the next time.)
DMX Addressing
The control panel on the front side of the base allows you to assign the DMX fixture address, which is the
first channel from which the Indigo will respond to the controller.
Please note when you use the controller, the unit has 14 channels.
When using multiple Indigo‟s, make sure you set the DMX addresses right.
Therefore, the DMX address of the first Indigo‟s should be 1(001); the DMX address of the second Indigo
should be 1+14=15 (015); the DMX address of the third Indigo should be 15+14=29 (029), etc.
Please, be sure that you don‟t have any overlapping channels in order to control each Indigo correctly.
If two or more Indigo‟s are addressed similarly, they will work similarly.
For address settings, please refer to the instructions under ”Addressing‟.
Controlling:
After having addressed all Indigo fixtures, you may now start operating these via your lighting controller.
Note: After switching on, the Indigo will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or not. If
there is no data received at the DMX-input, the “LED “ on the control panel will not flash.
The problem may be:
- The XLR cable from the controller is not connected with the input of the Indigo.
- The controller is switched off or defective, the cable or connector is detective, or the signal wires are
swapped in the input connector.
Note: It‟s necessary to insert a XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) in the last fixture in order to ensure
proper transmission on the DMX data link.
