Accessory Slot and GOBO Holder
The Accessory Slot is located under a sliding plate fixed by two screws. When nothing is
installed this cover prevents light spillage from the fixture. Under the cover are two different
sized slots. The larger slot can accept accessories like Irises or GOBO rotators. The smaller
slot is generally reserved for fixed GOBO holders and variants are available to accommodate
either metal or glass gobos.
Basic Setup Wiring Diagrams
There are two basic ways to use the fixture. One is in standalone, which does not require the
use of any data lines to be connected nor any controller, each fixture would operate
independently based solely on the menu setting. The second method, is to use the units in DMX
control. The second method requires the fixtures to be wired together via the DMX DATA in and
out cables. This allows the units to receive data either from the master unit or the DMX
controller. Data wiring is explained in more detail in the DMX Data Connection section of this
manual.

DMX-512 Control
Fixtures require a "Start Address" from 1 to 512, setting the first DMX channel containing data
for the fixture (see DMX Background). Before addressing fixtures, consult the manual of the
system’s DMX controller to select a desirable addressing scheme. Valid Start Addresses range
from 1 to 512. Fixtures requiring more than one channel for control will read subsequent
channels up to the total number of channels required. Since this fixture requires a maximum of
10 channels of DMX, if set to a Start Address of 11 it would use data from channels: 11, 12, 13,
14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, and 20. Choose a Start Address so the channels used do not overlap
with other fixtures. In some cases, it may be desirable to set two or more same type fixtures to
the same Start Address. In this case, the fixtures will be slaved together and respond to the
same data. Because all fixtures see the same data, fixtures may be set to any address without
concern for the order they are connected by the DMX cables.
DMX Data Connection
This fixture uses XLR type connectors. Use shielded twisted pair cable approved for
EIA-422/EIA485 use. Fixtures are connected in Daisy Chain topography: Connection is
made from the controller to the DMX-IN of the first light, then from the DMX-OUT to the
DMX-IN of the next light and so on. Only one data source can be on a chain and no
branching is allowed. The physical order in which the fixtures are connected is not
important, use the most convenient.
Data Terminator
A Data Terminator can be purchased to connect to the DMX-OUT of the last fixture to
reduce the effects of signal noise. To make a Terminator, connect a 120-ohm ¼ watt
resistor across pin 2, Data Negative (S-) and pin 3, Data positive (S+). A qualified
technician can determine if a Data Terminator is required.

Adapters for 3 or 5 pin XLR
Systems using a mix of 3 and 5 pin XLR DMX interfaces can be accommodated by
purchasing adapters or building adapter cables. Numbers designating each pin can be
found on connectors. Converting between the two XLR types is done pin-to-pin. Shield
wire connects to pin 1, then connect pin 2 to pin 2 and pin 3 to pin 3, regardless of either
connector’s gender or pin count. No connection is made to Pins 4 & 5.
DMX Start Address
More than one fixture may have the same start address, but they will behave the same.
Giving a unique start address that does not overlap with any other units allows you to
individually control that fixture’s features fully. Never allow channels to overlap. This
fixture features a 3 channel DMX mode. This will determine the spacing of channels you
will need to avoid overlapping of channels when selecting your start addresses.
Example Select Start Addresses for 4 fixtures each requiring 2 channels of DMX.
For this example, start with the first unit set to the first possible Start Address = 1. This fixture
occupies DMX channels 1 thru 2. The next DMX channel available for a Start Address is found
by adding the previous fixture’s Start Address to its channel requirement: 1+2=3. To maximize
channel usage leave no empty channels between fixtures, so the second Start Address is set to
DMX channel 3 and that fixture occupies channels 3 thru 4. The third fixture will be addressed
3+2=5and occupy channels 5 thru 6. The last fixture is addressed 5+2=7and will occupy
channels 7 thru 8. Thus, 4 fixtures using 2 channels each have Start Addresses of 1, 3, 5and 7,
leaving the next free channel in the system is 7+2=9.

Maintenance
Make sure fixture is cool and disconnected from power mains before any service.
Weekly operating hours and environmental conditions will establish how often the fixtures need
cleaning. Fixtures should be cleaned and inspected at least once a month to maintain optimum
performance. Accumulation of dust and fog residue increases heat build up, can lead to
malfunctions, overheating and reduction in maximum light output, reduced fixture life and over
all performance. Before conducting any maintenance, disconnect fixture from power mains.
1) Disconnect fixture from power mains.
2) Use a vacuum with a soft brush to remove dust collected on external vents and internal
components. If using an air compressor, use low pressures and extreme care to prevent
damaging any internal parts or effects.
4) Clean all optical elements when the fixture is cold. Use a soft lint free cotton cloth or tissue
and cleaner safe for plastics.
5) Inspect clamps and safety cables to ensure fixture is secure and safe.
Troubleshooting
Diagnostic technique for DMX issues: Set suspect fixture’s Start Address the same as a correctly
functioning fixture. If both units then function correctly, issue is programming.

DMX-512 Background
DMX-512 is a digital data transmission standard developed by the United States Institute for Theater Technology
(USITT). It is designed to enable control of lighting equipment. DMX deals solely with the formatting of data for
transmission and does not dictate how the data is created or used.
Under DMX, signals are transmitted in much the same way a computer modem transmits data. The Data, divided
into channels, is "Framed" using a start bit, high (1), eight data bits and finally, two stop bits, both high (1). DMX
uses no parity to check the integrity of the signal. Instead, DMX relies on the ultra low probability of an error
occurring in the same place when the data is resent. The rate at which data is sent is fixed at 250k bps, almost four
and a half times faster that a 56k modem. This speed allows all data on a DMX chain to be updated more than 44
times every second.
The transmitted data follows a specific format. DMX allows for 512 channels each with eight data bits, giving each
channel the possibility of 256 values. When a data "Packet" is sent, all channels are transmitted one after another.
Even if the data on a specific channel has not been changed, it must be sent. In a packet, a "start code" of all zeros
is sent before the data to identify the signal as a Standard DMX transmission. This start code is transparent to the
user and is handled by the controller.
The physical signals are transmitted using a twisted pair of wires and a common shield, a configuration called
Balanced. The controller and all receiving equipment are connected using a “Daisy Chain" connection. The signal
is jumped from the controller to a piece of DMX equipment. From there, the signal is jumped to the next piece of
equipment and so on until the last piece of equipment is connected. No branches are allowed and the signal does
not come back to the controller. The final piece of equipment will have only one cable connection. As a result, all
equipment connected to the chain will see exactly the same signal whether it is first or last. When connecting
equipment, no particular attention needs to be paid to the order in which the equipment is connected. Depending on
the conditions and equipment, a line terminator may be required. If there is any question, in most circumstances the
addition of a terminator will not degrade the signal. To make a terminator, attach a 120-ohm resistor between the
Signal Data Negative and Signal Data Positive pins of a connector in the last piece of equipment in the chain.
The DMX Standard uses 5 pin XLR connectors. However, it is common to see
fixtures with 3 pin XLR connectors as these types of balanced or “Lo-Z” cables
are common in the audio industry. In either case, pin numbers are the same and
carry the same signals.
