water or metal objects that could enter the fixture. If a foreign object enters the unit,
immediately disconnect the main ower. Also, lace the fixture in a well-ventilated
room at about 15 cm from the walls.
Do not touch any wires during o eration, as high voltage is hazardous.
In the event of serious o erating roblems, sto using the unit immediately.

D. HOW TO CONTROL THE UNIT
( 1 ) By universal DMX controller
The DMX512 is widely used in intelligent lighting control, with a maximum of 512
channels.
A DMX512 system requires a controller, lighting equi ment and cable. These are
connected together in a “daisy chain” with the terminator at the end. The cable
cannot be branched or s lit to a “Y” cable.
The terminator requires a 90-120 Ohm 1/4 Watt resistor soldered between two
signal cables.
The DMX512 uses a very high-s eed signal. Inadequate or damaged cables,
bad solder joints or corroded connectors can easily distort the signal and shut
down the system. A reliable DMX512 system starts with good quality cables.
Each lighting unit needs to have an address set to receive the data sent by the
controller. The address number is between 0-511. The end of the DMX512
system should be terminated reducing signal errors.
3 in XLR connectors are more o ular than 5 in XLR.
3 in XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+)
5 in XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+)

( 2 ) Preprogram functions
The unit can be linked together as master/slave in daisy chain in linkage as many
units as required and run by built in re rogrammed chase sequences triggered
by music.
Not need to set the dipswitches in master/slave mode.
＊ 2-light show
Di switch 10 “off” means the unit works normally and “on” means inversion. In
order to creating a great light show, you can set di switch 10 “on” on any unit that
is linking to the master unit to get contrast movement to each other, even if you
have two units only. Di switch 10 on the first unit is no use in the DMX linking, as it
is the master unit that o erates the light show.
( 3 ) By easy controller
The easy remote control is used only in master/slave mode. By connecting to the 1/4”
micro hone jack of the first unit, you will find that the remote control on the first unit will
control all the other units for Stand by, Strobe/Next and Fast/Slow function.
1. STAND BY - To blackout all the units.
2. FUNCTION - STROBE/NEXT
- Under FAST ( LED off )mode, the units will strobe in three
different ways:
a) Strobe in different gobos and colors.
b) Synchronous strobe in white color.
c) Two-light strobe in white color.
- Under SLOW ( LED on ) mode, ress FUNCTION button to
choose desired color and gobo. It will change ten colors and then
change one gobo.
3. MODE - FAST/SLOW
When the LED is off, it is in FAST mode. The unit’s movement- Pan/Tilt & Gobo/Color is
sound activated. If the LED on, it is in SLOW mode, Pan/Tilt is sound activated but
Gobo/Color wheel are static, controlled by Next button.

E. FIXTURE CLEANING FIXTURE CLEANING
The cleaning of internal and external o tical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried
out eriodically to o timize light out ut. Cleaning frequency de ends on the
environment in which the fixture o erates: dam , smoky or articularly dirty
surroundings can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the unit’s o tics.
•Clean with a soft cloth using normal glass cleaning roducts.
•Always dry the arts carefully.
•Clean the external o tics at least once every 20 days. Clean the internal
o tics at least every 30/60 days.
