Installation
Power Supply
Before plugging your unit in, be sure the source voltage in your area matches the voltage
required for your lighting setup. Every unit is available in 100v and 240v version. Because line
voltage may vary from venue to venue, you should be sure your unit voltage matches the wall outlet
voltage before attempting to operate your unit.
* Always connect this product to a protected circuit with an appropriate electrical ground to
avoid the risk of electrocution or re.
*To eliminate unnecessary wear and improve its lifespan, during periods of nonuse complete-
ly disconnect the product from power via breaker or by unplugging it.
Mounting
The SilentPar 1210 may be mounted in any position, provided there is adequate room for
ventilation around it. Operating in an insu󰀩ciently ventilated room can lead to an overheating of the
device and may cause serious accidents. Keep a minimum distance of 0.5m around and above the
device. Do not operate this device with the top part of the housing opened. Before deciding on a
location, always make sure that it will be easy to access the unit for maintenance and programming
purposes. Make sure that the structure onto which you are mounting this product can support its
weight. Please see the Technical Specications section of this manual for weight
information. When mounting this product overhead, always use a safety cable. Mount the xture
securely to a rigging point, whether an elevated platform or a truss.
Rigging
When rigging this product onto a truss, you should use a mounting clamp of appropriate
weight capacity. The bracket has a 13 mm hole, which is appropriate for this purpose.
When power linking multiple xtures, you must always consider the length of the power
linking cable and mount the xtures close enough for the cable to reach them.
The bracket knobs allow for directional adjustment when aiming the xture to the desired
angle. Only loosen or tighten the bracket knobs using your bare hands. Using tools
could damage the knobs. The double bracket yoke/mounting brackets/feet also serve as oor
support(s) or surface mounting.

DMX Linking
A SilentPar can be connected to a DMX controller by a 3-pin XLR cable, allowing total control
over one or more SilentPar lights. To do this, connect an XLR cable from the DMX-
input (labeled DMX IN) on your lighting unit to the DMX-output of the controller. Connect a second
light via its DMX-input to the rst unit’s DMX-output (labeled DMX OUT) to control and synchronize
multiple lighting units at once.

Operation
Buttons
There are four buttons on the back of a SilentPar unit: MENU, UP, DOWN, and ENTER. Normal-
ly the LED will display the current DMX address code of the xture. Press UP and DOWN to choose
the desired function and press ENTER to conrm.
Operating modes
The SilentPar can operate in 6 modes:
• 3 Auto modes - Fade, Fade (in /out) and Rotate (color change no fade) - the unit will automat-
ically chase through all of the di󰀨erent colors. The higher the setting number the faster it will
chase.
• Sound-active mode- the unit will react to sound, chasing through the built-in programs
• DMX control mode- this function will allow you to control each individual unit with a standard
DMX 512 controller
• User Color mode- the user can set a static color using the individual dimmers, Red, Green,
Blue, White and Amber.

Maintenance
Cleaning your SilentPar
Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the internal and external optical lenses must be
carried out periodically to optimize light output.
1. Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe o󰀨 the outside casing.
2. Clean the external optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth every 20 days.
3. Always be sure to dry all parts completely before plugging the unit back in.
*Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which
the unit operates (i.e. smoke, fog residue, dust, dew).
