1. Assembly (Skipping this can lead to troubles ! )
Ok, so we have your attention. These hints will help you to make this project successful.
Read them carefully.
1.1 Make sure you have the right tools:
•A good quality soldering iron (25-40W) with a
small tip.
•Wipe it often on a wet sponge or cloth, to keep
it clean; then apply solder to the tip, to give it a
wet look. This is called ‘thinning’ and will protect the tip, and enables you to make good connections. When sol-
der rolls off the tip, it needs cleaning.
•Thin raisin-core solder. Do not use any flux or grease.
•A diagonal cutter to trim excess wires. To avoid injury
when cutting excess leads, hold the lead so they can-
not fly towards the eyes.
•Needle nose pliers, for bending leads, or to hold components in place.
•Small blade and phillips screwdrivers. A basic range is fine.
For some projects, a basic multi-meter is required, or might be
handy
1.2 Assembly Hints :
þMake sure the skill level matches your experience, to avoid disappointments.
þFollow the instructions carefully. Read and understand the entire step before you perform each operation.
þPerform the assembly in the correct order as stated in this manual
þPosition all parts on the PCB (Printed Circuit Board) as shown on the drawings.
þValues on the circuit diagram are subject to changes.
þValues in this assembly guide are correct*
þUse the check-boxes to mark your progress.
þPlease read the included information on safety and customer service
* Typographical inaccuracies excluded. Always look for possible last minute manual updates, indicated as ‘NOTE’
on a separate leaflet.
1.3 Soldering Hints :
Mount the component against the
PCB surface and carefully solder the
leads
Make sure the solder joints are
cone-shaped and shiny Trim excess leads as close as pos- sible to the solder joint

17. ASSEMBLY, HOOK-UP AND USE
Assembly :
The 12-position rotary switch SW3 must be configured for 8 positions.
Turn the switch all the way counterclockwise.
Remove the nut and the lockwasher
Lift the stop washer and move it to position ‘8’
Put the lockwasher and nut back in place
Take care when connecting and using this kit. Most parts carry lethal volt-
ages. All wires of the output section must be at least 2.5mm² (14AWG).
Power supply wiring can be done with 0.5mm² (22AWG) wire. Use fuse rat-
ings as indicated on the connection examples.
Put an extra layer of solder on all thinned PCB tracks, to improve their cur-
rent handling capabilities. This unit is suitable for use with resistive loads,
such as regular incandescent lightbulbs. The unit is not suitable for use with
transformer operated lighting or fluorescent lighting.
Hook-up of one unit :
Hook-up the unit as shown in the diagram.
To use the internal speed adjustment, connect ‘OSC OUT’with ‘SIG IN’by
means of a wire jumper. A external 5V CMOS clock signal (e.g generated
by a beat detector), can be connected between GND and SIG. IN.
Cascading of two units :
Two units can be hooked-up in cascade configuration, to create a 14 -
channel lightshow. Hook-up both units as shown in the diagram. The ‘RE-
SET’button of the slave unit can be omitted. It is very important that each
unit gets its own power supply transformer. Do not use a single transformer
for both units. Make sure the ‘L’(live) of both kits is connected to the same
phase of the mains. Not doing so will result in damage beyond repair of
both kits, and the risk of fire. Use 4mm² (12AWG) wire for the output sec-
tion and use fuses rated as indicated.
Patterns 15 and 16 have been developed for cascade use. Choose pattern
15 for the master unit, and pattern 16 for the slave unit.
Use :
Choose between 8 different patterns with the rotary switch SW3.
SW2 allows selection of another bank of 8 patterns.
To restart the selected pattern, press ‘RESET’
If internal speed control has been chosen (OSC. OUT connected to SIG.
IN), you can adjust the running speed with RV1.
