HOW TO CONNECT THE UNIT BY DMX

The DMX-protocol is a widely used high speed signal to control intelligent light equipment. You need to "daisy chain" your DMX controller and all the connected light effects with a good quality XLR M/F balanced cable. To prevent strange behavior of the light effects, due to interferences, you must use a 90 to 120 terminator at the end of the chain. Never use Y-splitter cables, this simply won't work!

Each light effect in the chain needs to have its proper starting address so it knows which commands from the controller it has to decode.

HOW TO SET THE RIGHT STARTING ADDRESS:

Refer to the previous chapter (DMX-512 address setting) to learn how to set the starting address on this unit. The starting address of each unit is very important. Unfortunately it is impossible to tell you in this user manual which starting addresses you have to set because this completely depends on the controller you will use... So please refer to the user manual of your DMX-controller to find out which starting addresses you must set.

The values below will be effective after about five seconds:

• For DMX reset, put DMX value of CH-16 to 200-209
• For DMX lamp on, put DMX value of CH-16 to 130-139.
  For DMX lamp off, put DMX value of CH-16 to 230-239.

HOW TO OPERATE THE UNIT

Every time you turn the unit on, it will show 575U on the display and move all the motors to their 'home' position and you may hear some noises for about 20 seconds. After that the unit will be ready to receive DMX signal or run the built-in programs.

YOU CAN OPERATE THE UNIT IN FOUR WAYS:

By master/slave built-in preprogram function
By CA-8 easy controller
By universal DMX controller ( 8 & 16 channel DMX mode )
By iLead controller ( The BT-575W must be switched to 8 channel DMX mode )

BY MASTER/SLAVE BUILT-IN PREPROGRAM FUNCTION:

Select this function when you want an instant show. By linking the units in master/slave connection, the first unit will control the other units to give an automatic, sound activated, synchronized light show. Its DMX input will have nothing plugged into it, and its master-LED will be constantly on and sound-LED will flash to the music.

Important! This function only works when the blackout mode in the menu of the master is set to OFF, otherwise nothing will happen! Read more about this option in the "Main Menu" paragraph.

• MASTER has 4 built-in shows: You can select (show 1), (show 2), (show 3) or (show 4) directly in the menu of the master.
• SLAVES have 2 working options: The other units are set to slave mode (slave-LED is constantly on). In order to create a great light show you can introduce contrast movements (pan/tilt of slave is inversed) In the menu of the slave units you can go to option bind and select:

Normal slave: slave works in sync with the master.
2 light show: slave works in opposite with the master.

BY EASY CONTROLLER:

When used in Master/slave mode we strongly advice you to use the CA-8 "Easy controller" Just connect this small controller to the 1 / 4 jack of the master unit, and you will be able to control the following FUNCTIONS:

Stand by	Blackout the unit
Function	Strobe 1.Gobo/Color sync. strobe 2.Sync. strobe 3.Two-light strobe	X/Y moving show mode selection (Show 1 ~ Show 4)	Color selection	X/Y moving setting 1.Pan position 2.Tilt position 3.Dimmer First set Master unit, then set Slave units' position.
Mode	Sound 1 (LED off)	Sound 2 (LED normal blinking)	Slow/Sound 3 (LED on)	Position/Latch (LED fast blinking)

MAINTENANCE

• Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during servicing.
• Switch off the unit, unplug the mains cable and wait until the unit has been cooled down.

During inspection the following points should be checked:

• All screws used for installing the device and any of its parts should be tightly fastened and may not be corroded.

• Housings, fixations and installations spots (ceiling, truss, suspensions) should be totally free from any deformation.

• When an optical lens is visibly damaged due to cracks or deep scratches, it must be replaced.

• The mains cables must be in impeccable condition and should be replaced immediately when even a small problem is detected.

• In order to protect the device from overheat the cooling fans (if any) and ventilation openings should be cleaned monthly.
• The interior of the device should be cleaned annually using a vacuum cleaner or air-jet.

• The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or particularly dirty surroundings can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the unit's optics.

• Clean with a soft cloth using normal glass cleaning products.
  Always dry the parts carefully.

• Clean the external optics at least once every 30 days.
• Clean the internal optics at least every 90 days.

Attention: We strongly recommend internal cleaning to be carried out by qualified personnel!
