4.Lamp bulb
There is high voltage inside the bulb,which may break during operation.The ultraviolet light emitted
by the bulb is harmful to the eyes and skin.Do not stare directly at the fixture during operation.
1.In order to protect the fixture, please turn off the fixture first when turning off the lamp, and then
disconnect the power after running for at least 5 minutes.
2.Do not touch the bulb with bare hands. Once touched by hand, wipe with alcohol and then dry with
soft linen.
3.When the lamp is on, the bulb operates under high pressure, so there is a risk of rupture. The
degree of danger is related to the length of use time, temperature and unreasonable operation and
other factors. Therefore, please do not use bulbs that exceed the service life.
4.Make sure the bulb is installed in the center to ensure the best results.

6.Universal DMX controller control
Connection
1. In order to reduce signal errors and avoid signal attenuation and interference duringtransmission,
a 90-120Ω (0.25W) resistor can be added between the 2-core and 3-core of the DMX output of
the last machine.,
2. Connect the fixture with XLR signal cable, one end is connected to the output port of the fixture,
and the other end is connected to the input port of the next fixture. XLR signal lines can only be
used in series, not in parallel. DMX512 signal transmission speed is very fast. Damaged signal wires,
weak soldering, poor contact, etc., will affect signal transmission and cause the system to shut down.
3. When the machine power supply of a unit is disconnected, the connection of DMX output and
input is bypassed in order to maintain the connection of the DMX line.
4. Each lamp must have an address code, which can receive the information sent by the console,
and the range is 0-511 (usually 0&1 and 1 are the same).
5. The terminal of the DMX512 system needs to be equipped with a terminal to reduce errors in
signal transmission.
6. 3-pin XLR connector:3 core XLR: PIN 1: GND, PIN 2: negative signal, PIN 3: positive signal.
Channel settings
Press the ENTER button to enter the menu mode, select the operating mode → select channel
mode,
press the ENTER button to confirm, the current channel mode will flash on the display, use the UP

DOWN buttons to select the full mode 24 (CH), press the ENTER button to save. Press the MENU
button to return to the previous menu or wait 30 seconds and automatically exit the menu mode.
Address code setting
When using a general DMX controller to control fixture, you need to set the starting address (1-512)
for the fixture so that the machine can receive DMX signals.
Press the ENTER button to enter the menu mode, select the DMX function, press the ENTER button

10
to confirm, the current address will flash on the display, then use the UP/DOWN button to select the
address code (1-512), press the ENTER button to save. Press the MENU button to return to the
previous
menu or wait 30 seconds and automatically exit the menu mode.
Please refer to the following chart to set the address codes of the first 4 fixtures

10.Fixture Cleaning
The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out periodically to
optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates:
damp, smoky or particularly dirty surrounding can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the unit’s optics.
Clean with soft cloth using normal glass cleaning fluid.
Always dry the parts carefully.
Clean the external optics at least every 20 days. Clean the internal optics at least every 30/60 days.
