6INSTALLATION AND SET UP
INSTALLATION AND SET UP
1.Power Requirements
The SL BEAM 100 LED Luminaire operates on AC input voltages from 100 to 240 VAC.
WARNING! This unit does not contain an ON/OFF switch. Always disconnect power input cable to completely
remove power from unit when not in use.
AC Power Operation
When connected to an AC source, the unit operates on 100 to 240 volts AC (+/- 10%, auto-ranging). The luminaire
contains an auto-ranging power supply. Each luminaire can draw up to 150 Watts.
WARNING! Maximum amount of units that may be daisy-chained is (A) 11 units 100 ~ 120VAC (15 Amps) or (B)20
units 230 ~ 240VAC (15 Amps).
Note: For wiring of AC input connector, refer to "Connecting SL BEAM 100 LED Luminaires to AC Power"
on page 6.
2.Connecting Power
Units can be powered in one of two ways:
Direct connection to a AC power sour c e using an AC input cable.
Connection from the AC output of another SL BEAM 100 L ED Luminaire. When using this method, it is
very important not to connect any other type of equipment device.
WARNING! Only connect other SL BEAM 100 LED Luminaires to the AC Output (Thru) connector of a SL
BEAM 100 L ED Luminaire.
Connecting SL BEAM 100 LED Luminaires to AC Power
Figure 3 on page 7 describes how to connect power to your SL B EAM 100 LED Luminaire. Field wiring of the
SL BEAM 100 LED Luminaire is straight forward. A total of 3 wires/conductors is supplied from the unit. The
following wiring scheme is used:

Connecting to the DMX512 Network 7
Figure 3: SL BEAM 100 LED Luminaire AC Input & Output Connections
CAUTION: In the event the AC input cable of this luminaire is damaged, it must be replaced, by the user, with an
approved cable through an Authorized Showline Dealer or Service Center.
3.Connecting to the DMX512 Network
Basic DMX512 installation consists of connecting multiple SL BEAM 100 LED Luminaires together (up to 32
luminaires) in "daisy-chain" fashion. A cable runs from the control console (or DMX512 control source) to the DMX
connector on the first SL BEAM 100 LED Luminaire. Another cable runs from the other DMX connector on
the first unit to a DMX connector on the next SL BEAM 100 LED Luminaire (or DMX512 device to
be controlled).

5.Master / Slave Operational Mode
Master / Slave Operational Mode
The Master / Slave Operational Mode allows one SL BEAM 100 LED Luminaire to act as the "Master" unit
and all other connected units are controlled by this unit. When a unit is set to "Slave" mode, it will only listen to and
follow any commands sent from a "Master" unit. Only one "Master" unit is allowed in this type of operation.
To setup a master / slave network:
Step 1.Set the first device in the DMX512 chain to M a ster Mode through the unit’s menu system.
Step 2.Set all other connected units to S l a ve Mode
.
Step 3.The master unit can be controlled via DMX512, R D M or through standalone operation (self-contained
network utilizing on-board effects). The slave units will mimic the master unit’s operation in all cases.
Note: For more information on DMX512 networking and systems, refer to "Additional Resources for DMX512" on
page 1"DMX CONTROL" on page 14. For SL BEAM 100 LED Luminaire DMX Mapping, refer to .
