The occupation of the connection-cable is as follows:

DMX-512 Connection

This fixture is equipped with an electronic power supply that will let the unit operate from 90V to 240V from 50Hz to

The fixture is equipped with 3 and 5 pin XLR Sockets for DMX input and output. The sockets are wired in parallel. Only

use a shielded twisted pair cable designed for RS-485 and 5 pin XLR plugs and connectors in order to connect the con-

troller with the fixture or the fixture with another.

Caution!

At the last fixture the DMX signal needs to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a

120 Ohm resistor between the (-) and the (+) signal into a 3 pin XLR plug and plug it

in to the last fixture on the signal run. Pre-manufactured terminator plugs are availa-

ble for purchase from your Mega-Lite dealer (P-DMXT).

Rigging the fixture

Caution!

1. The installations must be carried out by an authorized dealer or trained professional.

2. Unit may cause severe injures if you have doubts concerning the safety do not install.

3. Unit is to be 24inches away from flammable materials (decoration material)

4. Use high quality installation equipment to hang unit.

When rigging a unit it is very important that you follow common safety procedures. Rigging requires extensive experi-

ence including but not limited to calculating working loads, material being used and periodic safety inspections. If you

lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself, instead use a professional structural rigger.

When rigging the unit always be secured with a secondary safety attachment. The installation location of the fixture has

got to be built in the way that it can hold 10 times the weight for 1 hour with out any harming. Installation should be

checked at least one time a year by a skilled person.
