5. How To Control The Unit
You can operate the unit in three ways:
1. By master/slave built-in preprogram function
2. By DMX controller
No need to turn the unit off when you change the DMX address, as new DMX address
setting will be effected at once. Every time you turn the unit on, it will move all the motors to
their ‘home’ position and you may hear some noises for about 20 seconds. After that the unit
will be ready to receive DMX signal or run the built-in programs.
5.1 Master/Slave Built In Preprogrammed Function
By linking the units in master/slave connection, the first unit or master unit will control the
other units to give an automatic light show. This function is good when you want an instant
show. You have to select (show 1) or (show 2) or (show 3) …or
(show 16) for the first unit. Its DMX input jack will have nothing plugged into it. The
other units will automatically be slave units, their DMX input jacks will connect with the DMX
output jacks of the last units.
5.2 DMX Controller
Use universal DMX controller to control the units, you have to set DMX address from 1 to
512 so that the units can receive DMX signal.
Press the MENU button up to when the is shown on the display. Pressing ENTER
button and the display will blink. Use DOWN and UP button to change the DMX 512 address.
Once the address has been selected, press ENTER button to setup (or automatically exit
menu mode after idling one minute). To go back to the main functions press the MENU
button. Please refer to the following diagram to address your DMX512 channel for the first 4

units.

7. DMX512 Connections
The DMX512 is widely used in intelligent lighting control, with a maximum of 512 channels.
1. Connect the fixture together in a “daisy chain” by XLR plug cable from the output of the
fixture to the input of the next fixture. The cable cannot be branched or split to a “Y”
cable. Inadequate or damaged cables, soldered joints or corroded connectors can
easily distort the signal and shut down the system
2. The DMX output and input connectors are pass-through to maintain the DMX circuit
when one of the units’ power is disconnected.
3. At last fixture, the DMX cable has to be terminated with a terminator to reduce signal
errors. Solder a 120-ohm 1/4W resistor between pin 2(DMX-) and pin 3(DMX+) into a
3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last fixture.

10A
4. Each lighting fixture needs to have an address set to receive the data sent by the
controller. The address number is between 0-511 (usually 0 & 1 are equal to 1).
5. 3 pin XLR connectors are more popular than 5 pins XLR.
3 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+)
5 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+),
Pin4/5: not used
8. Update Software
Download update file from our web site, follow the user manual of VD-01 to update the
fixture via VD-01(not included).
9. Troubleshooting
Following are a few common problems that may occur during operation. Here are some
suggestions for easy troubleshooting:
A. The fixture does not work, no light
1. Check the connection of power and main fuse.
2. Measure the mains voltage on the main connector.
B. Not responding to DMX controller
1. Check DMX connectors, cables to see if link properly.
2. Check the address settings and DMX polarity.
3. If you have intermittent DMX signal problems, check the pins on connectors or on PCB
of the fixture or the previous one.
4. Try to use another DMX controller.
5. Check if the DMX cables run near or run alongside to high voltage cables that may
cause damage or interference to DMX interface circuit.
C. One of the channel is not working well
1. The stepper motor might be damaged or the cable connected to the PCB is broken.
2. The motor’s drive IC on the PCB might be out of condition.
10. Fixture Cleaning
The cleaning of internal 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 fixture’s optics.
yClean with soft cloth using normal glass cleaning fluid.
yAlways dry the parts carefully.
11A
yClean the external optics at least every 20 days. Clean the internal optics at least every
30/60 days.
