D) Display: Provides Kelvin, Dim level and software revision data.
E) LOCK / RESET: In LOCK mode, an amber light is displayed to the left of the button. In RESET mode, the indicator light is green. To reset to factory presets, hold the LOCK / RESET button for 5 seconds.
F) On / Off: On = Green light displayed. Off = Amber light displayed.
G) Kelvin / Dimmer Knob: Manually adjusts Kelvin or Dim levels. Press the knob to toggle between fine and coarse adjustments.

Note: Each Celeb 401Q DMX fixture has an "AUTO TERMINATE" feature. The last fixture that does not have an XLR cable attached to the DMX "Out" port will automatically terminate.

IMPORTANT!

The dimmer board/light console should have its channel set to LINEAR light output response. (LINEAR response is the default setting on most dimmer boards.)

Pin #2 + 18-28VDC

Pin #3 not used

Ambient Operating Temperature

The Celeb is designed to operate at temperatures from 14^ F to 104^ F ( -10^ C to 40^ C).

DMX Operation

DIMR ADDRESS KELVIN DIM 5000 OFFICE LIGHT LOCK WIRET Power

The Celeb 401Q DMX operates on two DMX channels using DMX512.

The first channel operates dimming; the 2nd channel operates Kelvin color temperature control.

Once an address is selected, the fixture automatically assigns 2 channels.

DMIX ADDRESS KELVIN DIM 0 SHIFT LOCK RESET +

Press and hold the DMX ADDRESS button to select a DMX address. The displayed number will flash while in edit mode.

CMX ADAM SELVM DIM 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 LOCK RENEUR 10 ...

Turn the dimming knob to select a valid address from 1-512. (Note: 0 or 513-999 are invalid addresses.)

Press the rotating knob once to shift between Fine (single digits) and Coarse (in 10th's) address selection.

SELECT ON OK SEND RENT

To save the DMX channel, press the DMX ADDRESS button again. When set, the displayed number will stop flashing.

Note: All Kelvin indicator lights will turn green if a valid DMX signal is present.

If a fixture loses its DMX signal, it will hold its last DMX command.

For this reason, it is important to turn a fixture off using the DMX commands.

For example, if you try to turn off the lights by turning off the dimmer board, the lights will remember their last DMX command and stay on. The fixtures require a DMX "Off" or "Black-Out" command in order to turn off.

TIME 0 0 LOCK Power

All manual controls are disabled once the DMX cable is applied and DMX is turned on.

Note: To regain manual control with the DMX cable plugged in, set the DMX address to "0".

cele

AUTO TERMINATE FEATURE

The Celeb 401Q DMX fixtures have an AUTO TERMINATE feature. The last fixture that does not have an XLR cable attached to the DMX "Out" port will automatically terminate.

Note: When operating fixtures at great distances from the dimmer board, it is recommended to use Opto-Isolators to provide DMX signal amplification.

Any theatrical lighting board with DMX512 protocol can be used to control the Celeb 401Q DMX fixture. The fixtures can be jumpered using the IN and OUT ports. As many as 100 fixtures can be jumpered on one chain as long as the DMX cable run remains under 1000 feet or 40 x 25ft DMX cables.

DMX Kelvin Dimmer Control

Kelvin Color Temperature – Dimmer level

When DMX is applied, the DMX signal will override the manual settings and the Celeb Kelvin temperature will default to 6500K and dim setting will be at 100%. Sliding the fader on the 1st channel will lower the light level. Sliding the fader on the 2nd channel will lower the Kelvin from 6500K to 2700K. (See chart on the following page for approximate Kelvin dimmer levels.). The fixture may respond ±4 slider channels, depending on the dimmer board.

Celeb 401Q DMXKelvin Color TemperatureDimmer Level
Kelvin Color Temperature	Dimmer Level
6500K 100%
5500K 75%
4500K 50%
3200K 15%
2700K 0%

Note: The detailed DMX mapping for the Celeb 401Q DMX fixture can be downloaded from our website at www.kinoflo.com.

IMPORTANT!

The dimmer board/light console should have its channel set to LINEAR light output response. (LINEAR response is the default setting on most dimmer boards.)

DMX Cables

Coiled black cable with connectors, no visible text or symbols

DMX Cables

The Celeb 401Q DMX fixtures use five-pin XLR male and female connectors to receive DMX signals from the Dimmer Board and jumper the fixtures in a series. DMX pin-out wiring follows the USITT DMX512 standard:

Pin 1: Shield

Pin 2: Data -

Pin 3: Date +

Pin 4: Spare –

Pin 5: Spare +

Note: Pin four and five in the fixture are connected internally as Pin four to four and Pin five to five. Connecting Pin four and five as the pass-thru allows secondary data to be passed through other equipment.

Do not use Microphone Cables and other general purpose, two-core cables designed for audio or signaling use. They are not suitable for DMX512. Problems due to incorrect cabling may not be immediately apparent. Microphone Cables may appear to work fine, but systems built with such cables may fail or be prone to random errors. Cable must comply with EIA-485 (RS485).

Celeb 401Q Wireless Operation

The Celeb 401Q includes a built-in Lumen Radio receiver and can be operated wirelessly with a Lumen Radio transmitter (sold separately). Wireless is an option to using DMX cables. Set DMX address as previously instructed on p. 8. For more information on Lumen Radio Receiver/Transmitter, see www.LumenRadio.com.

Press the link/unlink button on the transmitter to link to the Celeb 401Q. A fast red blinking light is displayed while searching for signal. A slow green blinking light* displays when linked.

A solid green light* is displayed when linked and DMX data is present with a strong signal.

Note: Fixture should only receive DMX wirelessly or through DMX cables, not both. Otherwise, the fixture will not respond properly.

*Green, Orange or Red light indicates signal strength.

Close-up of a black electronic device with indicator lights and control buttons (no readable text or symbols)

To unlink from the fixture: Press and hold the red unlink button for 3 seconds. A blue light is displayed when unlinked.

To unlink from the transmitter: Press and hold the link/unlink button for 3 seconds. This will unlink all powered fixtures linked to the transmitter.

Note: When power is removed from fixture, it will remember its linked/unlinked state.

Tips:

DMX fixtures without wireless capability can be daisy chained with DMX cables to the wireless "linked" fixture.

Keep antenna upright. Maintain line of sight. Elevate unit above crowds. Elevation above ground increases range. Keep away from large metal objects.
