04/ Fixture Installation

DO install and operate by qualified operator. Fixture(s) should be installed in areas

outside walking paths, seating areas, or away from areas were unauthorized personnel

might reach the fixture by hand. NEVER stand directly below the fixture(s) when rigging,

removing or servicing.

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 attach a safety cable that can hold at least

12 times the weight of the fixture whenever installing this fixture in a suspended

environment to ensure that the fixture will not fall if the clamp fails.

This fixture is fully operational in two different mounting positions: hanging, or fix on the

ceiling. Always use and install the supplied safety cable as a safety measure to prevent

accidental damage and/or injury in the event the clamp fails.

Hanging the fixture:

- 7 -

Fix the fixture on the ceiling:

1. Drill an expansion screw hole (for M12 expansion screw) in the ceiling.

2. Unscrew the washer and nut of the expansion screw, and insert the expansion screw tube

and screw into the drilled screw hole.

3. Align the hole on the bracket of the fixture with the screw, then put the washer and nut of

the expansion screw in turn and tighten it with a wrench.

4. After tightening the nut, check whether the fixture is installed firmly, then adjust the

fixture to the required angle through the bracket knob.

05/ Control By Universal DMX Controller

5.1 DMX512 Connection

1. To avoid erratic behavior, make sure that the output of the last DMX device in the chain

is terminated by a resistor (120-ohm 1/4W) which is connected between RJ45 PIN 1 (XLR

PIN 3) and RJ45 PIN 2 (XLR PIN 2) of a RJ45 connector (a male XLR connector).

2. Connect the unit together in a “daisy chain” by network 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. DMX512 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 DMX512 system should be terminated to reduce signal errors.

6. This device transmits DMX512 signal through RJ45 port.

Positive signal: RJ45 (PIN 1) corresponds to XLR (PIN 3)

Negative signal: RJ45 (PIN 2) corresponds to XLR (PIN 2)

GND: RJ45 (PIN 7/PIN 8) corresponds to XLR (PIN 1)

5.2 Address Setting

If you use a universal DMX controller to control the units, you have to set DMX address

between 1 and 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.
