• Always disconnect the power from the mains when equipment is not in use or before

cleaning! Only handle the power-cable by the plug. Never pull out the plug by pulling the

power-cable.

• Make sure that the available voltage is between 220v/240v.

• Make sure that the power-cable is never crimped or damaged. Check the equipment and

the power-cable periodically.

• If the equipment is dropped or damaged, disconnect the mains power supply immediately.

Have a qualied engineer inspect the equipment before operating again.

• If the equipment has been exposed to drastic temperature uctuation (e.g. after

transportation), do not switch it on immediately. The arising condensation might damage

the equipment. Leave the equipment switched off until it has reached room temperature.

• If your product fails to function correctly, discontinue use immediately. Pack the unit

securely (preferably in the original packing material), and return it to your Prolight dealer

for service.

• Only use fuses of same type and rating.

• Repairs, servicing and power connection must only be carried out by a qualied

technician. THIS UNIT CONTAINS NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS.

• WARRANTY; One year from date of purchase.

OPERATING DETERMINATIONS

If this equipment is operated in any other way, than those described in this manual,

the product may suffer damage and the warranty becomes void.

Incorrect operation may lead to danger e.g.: short-circuit, burns, electric shocks,

• Built-in programmes and microphone

• Power consumption: 21W

• Power supply: 240V

• Dimensions: 210 x 494 x 205mm

Operations:

DMX Mode

To select DMX mode, press the “MODE” button to show “ADDR” on the LED display. Now use

the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons to set the DMX address from 001-512. When you have nished

setting the desired DMX address press the “ENTER” button.

Auto Run Mode

To select auto run mode, press the “MODE” button to show “AUTO” on the LED display. Now use

the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons to choose from the two auto run options “AUTO” or “AUT1”.

“AUTO” Option 1: With this option the unit will run through its built-in programmes when there is

no sound present and will automatically switch to sound when music is heard.

“AUT1” Option 2: With this option the unit will constantly run through the built-in programmes

regardless of the presence of sound.

When you have selected the desired option press the “ENTER” button. The unit will now run

through its built-in programmes.

Sound Active Mode

To select sound active mode, press the “MODE” button to show “SOUN” on the LED display.

Now press the “ENTER” button and use the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons to set the sound active

mode “ON” or “OFF”. The unit will now react to the beat of the music.

Note: When there is no music present the unit will automatically switch to auto run.

Slave Mode

To select the slave mode, press the “MODE” button to show “SLND” on the LED display.

Now press the “ENTER” button and use the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons to select either “SLA1”

or “SLA2”.

“SLA1” option: This is the normal slave mode, where the slave units all do the same thing.

“SLA2” option: This is the inversion slave mode, where the slave unit will react in the opposite

direction from the master unit.

Note: After making any changes to the above settings, please allow the Eyebar 5 seconds to

DMX-512:

• DMX (Digital Multiplex) is a universal protocol used as a form of communication between

intelligent xtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions form the

controller to the xture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from xture to xture via the

DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX xtures (most controllers only have

a data “out” terminal).

DMX Linking:

• DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of different manufactures to be linked together

and operate from a single controller, as long as all xtures and the controller are DMX compliant.

To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several DMX xtures try to use the

shortest cable path possible. The order in which xtures are connected in a DMX line does not

inuence the DMX addressing. For example; a xture assigned to a DMX address of 1 may be

placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle. When a

xture is assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to

address 1 to that unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.

DATA Cable (DMX cable) requirements (for DMX operation):

• The Equinox Eyebar can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The DMX address is set on the

back of the unit. Your unit and your DMX controller require a standard 3-pin XLR connector for

data input/output (gure 1).

Figure 1

Also remember that DMX cable must be daisy chained and cannot be split.

Notice:

• Be sure to follow gures 2 & 3 when making your own cables. Do not connect the cable’s shield

conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer

casing. Grounding the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behaviour.

Special Note: Line termination:

• When longer runs of cable are used, you may need to use a terminator on the last unit to

avoid erratic behaviour.

Using a cable terminator (part number CABL90) will decrease the possibilities of erratic

behaviour.

5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors:

• Some manufactures use 5-pin XLR connectors for data transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-Pin

XLR xtures may be implemented in a 3-pin XLR DMX line. When inserting standard 5-pin

XLR connectors in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used. The Chart below details the

correct cable conversion.

Termination reduces signal transmission problems

and interferance. it is always advisable to connect a

DMX terminal, (resistance 120 Ohm 1/4 W) between

pin 2 (DMX-) and pin 3 (DMX+) of the last fixture.
