1. DMX OUT:

For DMX512 link, use 5-pin XLR cable to link the next units

2. DMX IN:

For DMX512 link, use 5-pin XLR cable to link the unit and controller

3. POWER IN: Connects to supply power

4. Installation

Always ensure that the unit is firmly fixed to avoid vibration and slipping off during operation.

Ensure that the trussing or area of installation must be able to hold 10 times the weight without any

deformation. Always install a safety cable that can hold at least 12 times the weight of the fixture

when installing.

DO install and operate by qualified operator. It must be installed in a place where there is out of the

reach of people.

1. Drill a rectangular hole with a length of 255mm and a width of 167mm in the ceiling. The ceiling

thickness range is 6mm≤L≤29mm.

2. Adjust the two movable fixing plates of the luminaire inward and stick to the luminaire shell.

3. Install the safety cable and push the luminaire from the bottom to the ceiling to be flush with the

ceiling surfacing.

4. Screw the two screws to the right to open the movable fixing plates outwards and press the back

of the ceiling.

5. Installation completed.

5. Control By Universal DMX Controller

5.1 DMX512 Connection

1. At last unit, the DMX cable has to be terminated with a terminator. 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 unit.

2. Connect the unit together in a “daisy chain” by XLR plug cable from the output of the unit to

the input of the next unit. The cable can only be used in series and cannot be connected in parallel.

DMX 512 is a very high-speed signal. Inadequate or damaged cables, soldered joints or corroded

connectors can easily distort the signal and shut down the system.

3. The DMX output and input connectors are pass-through to maintain the DMX circuit, when one

of the units’ power is disconnected.

4. Each lighting unit needs to have a DMX address to receive the data by the controller. The

address number is between 1-512.

5. The end of the DMX 512 system should be terminated to reduce signal errors.

6. 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, Pin5 not used.

5.2 Address Setting

If you use a 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.

Please refer to the following diagram to address your DMX512 channel for the first 4 units.

5.3 DMX512 Configuration

Please control the fixture by referring to the configurations below

Attentions:

1. The unit will maintain the last condition until reset if you cut-off the DMX signal.

2. For the channel Function, keep the value for about 3 seconds, then the corresponding function

will take into effect.
