Summary

Introduction

RGBW Color Changing Adjustable Flood Lights are active, top-of-the-line color changing

fixtures. They draw on solid-state elements in order to produce highlights and washes

in architectural spaces.

More specifically, “RGBW” is an acronym for “Red, Green, Blue, and White”. RGBW

LED color mixing luminaires have the potential to produce 4.3 billion colors, and 16.7

million white light tones.

When installed and operated according to this manual, these downlights will operate

safely and dependably for their rated lifespan.

These luminaries require a USITT DMX 512 control signal on four consecutive

channels total. The unit includes a DATA OUT output for connection to additional units

or other DMX512 devices.

The flood lights are UL 1598 wet location rated for use in indoor or outdoor

environments.

Scope

The purpose of this manual is to properly install and use color-changing flood lights at

peak performance

This manual must be complimented by additional references, consultation from

qualified professional(s), and observance of state and local codes and regulations. This

rule applies to any interior structure, exterior structure, or environment.

Therefore, it is important to:

“please read and comply with all instructions and

warnings in this manual when installing or using this product.”

Who Is This Manual Intended for?

This manual is intended for electrical contractors, electrical engineers, and licensed

electricians.

Additional Supplies

DMX512 compatible controller (optional)

DMX extension (optional)

DMX feed connector

4x4 inch electrical junction box rated for the application (optional)

Controller (DMX512 compatible)

Preparation

Before Installation, Coloronix suggests:

• Consulting the provided submittal drawings to recognize layouts of luminaries,

power supplies, and wiring layouts.

• Drawing out a layout plan consisting of locations of luminaries and wiring.

• Record DMX addresses on a mapping grid for easy reference and addressing

(where applicable).

• An electrical inspector reviews all wiring plans.

Points to Consider About Data

•

Max power links is 9 per power feed

• AC Power and DATA cables may NOT run in the same conduit or within one

foot due to possible induced errors.

• 32 DMX DATA links max per run

Mounting and Alignment o Fixture

Mounting and Alignment o FixtureMounting and Alignment o Fixture

Mounting and Alignment o Fixture

•

Mount and secure each fixture into the designated position in accordance to the

installation plan. Ensure there is sufficient cable length between the fixture and junction

box to allow for final alignment of the fixture.

•

Secure the fixtures to a solid mounting surface using three threaded fasteners

minimum of 3/8 inch (1 mm) stainless steel complete with flat and locking washer.

•

Rotate the fixtures using the pan and tilt method into the desired position.

Electrical Connection (Hardwire)

WARNING: Do not expose bare wires outside wire nut connectors.

1. Per local or “National Electric Code”, provide electrical service to junction box

located on the housing.

a. The insulation of supply wire must be rated for at least 9 °C.

b. Junction boxes should be rated for:

i. Max. 8 No. 12 AWG Circuit Conductors

ii. Also suitable for at least 9 °C

2. Remove cover of junction box.

3. Remove proper round pryout, and then connect junction box with (not included)

proper connector.

4. Using properly sized wire nuts, connect lead wires of junction box (line, neutral,

and ground) to supply lead wires in the fixture.

a. WARNING: Do not leave bare conductors outside wire nut connectors.

5. Connect green (from electrical service) to the supply side to the green wire in

the junction box. Connect black-to-brown, and white-to-blue.

a. Any excess wiring and connectors should be put in the junction box.

Then, replace the cover.

NOTE: Supply lead wires should not be connected to a dimmer of any sort.

Maximum power connection should not exceed 9 units at 12 V.

Page 1 of 13 - Coloronix SS2 Direct Power Lighting Manual V.2. .1

Data Connection

Note: Inline DMX amplifier required if run length exceeds: 125 feet between fixtures (others)

Note: Maximum run length from DMX controller to last fixture: 1 feet.

Note: DMX must be continuous from controller to last fixture in a run. A splitter is needed if

signal is split.

Please follow below if provided data cables will not be used

Note: Fixtures on a serial data link must be daisy chained in one single line. To comply with

the EIA 485 standard, no more than 32 fixtures should be connected on one data link.

Connecting more than 32 fixtures on one serial data link without the use of a DMX

optically isolated splitter may result in deterioration of the digital DMX signal.

Maximum recommended serial data link distance: 5 m (164 ft)

Maximum recommended number of fixtures on a serial data link: 32

DMX Data Cable

specifications for EIA RS-485 applications. Standard microphone cables cannot transmit DMX data

reliably over long distances. The cable must have the following characteristics:

Type: shielded, 2-conductor twisted pair

Maximum capacitance between conductors:

3 pF/ft

Maximum capacitance between conductor and shield:

55 pF/ft

Maximum resistance: 2 ohms/1 ft

Normal impendance: 1

14 ohms

Note: To comply with all local codes and jurisdiction, qualified communications technicians must do

communications wiring.

Note: Communication cables and AC power lines must not be run in the same conduit.

A. Route Data Cables in series between fixture and any communications accessories using DATA

IN and DATA OUT.

B. In order that they may be easily accessed once construction is complete, secure data cables in

the immediate proximity of the fixtures.

Note: To avoid signal transmission problems and interference, it is always advisable to connect to a

DMX signal terminator.
