DMX-512 Connection

This fixture is equipped with an electronic power supply that will let the unit operate from 100V to 220V from 50Hz to 60Hz

The fixture is equipped with 3 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 3 pin XLR plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller 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 available for

purchase from your Mega-Lite dealer (HOS-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 experience includ-

ing but not limited to calculating working loads, material being used and periodic safety inspections. If you lack these qualifica-

tions, 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 projector 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.
