2. Safety Instructions

		Be very careful during the installation: touching live wires can cause lfe-threatening electroshocks.
		Always disconnect mains power when device not in use or when servicing or maintenance activities are performed. Handle the power cord by the plug only.
		Indoor use only. Keep this device away form rain, moisture, splashing and dripping liquids.
		Keep this device away from children and unauthorized users.
		Caution: device heats up during use.
		Do not stare directly at the light source, as this may cause-epileptic seizure in sensitive people-temporarily loss of sight (flash blindness)-permanent (irreversible) eye damage
		There are no use r-serviceable parts inside the device. Refer to an authorized dealer for service and/or spare parts.

• This device falls under protection class I. It is therefore essential that the device be earthed. Have a qualified person carry out the electric connection.
• Make sure that the available voltage does not exceed the voltage stated in the specifications of this manual.
• Do not crimp the power cord and protect it against damage. Have an authorised dealer replace it if necessary.
• Respect a minimum distance of 0.5m between the device's light output and any illuminated surface.
• Use an appropriate safety cable to fix the device (e.g. VDLSC7 or VDLSC8).
• Inst all the VDPL10()3xW at a minimal distance of 0.5 m from flammable and explosive objects or substances.-Keep the VDPL1003xW at a minimal distance of 1 m from the lighted surface.
• Keep the air vents free at all times. Never cover the device, nor partially, nor completely.

3. General Guidelines

Refer to the Velleman® Service and Quality Warranty on the last pages of this manual.

		Keep this device away from dust and extreme heat. Make sure the ventilation openings are clear at all times. For sufficient air circulation, leave at least 1" (±2.5 cm) in front of the openings.
		Protect this device from shocks and abuse. Avoid brute force when operating the device.

• Familiarise yourself with the functions of the device before actually using it. Do not allow operation by unqualified people. Any damage that may occur will most probably be due to unprofessional use of the device.
• All modifications of the device are forbidden for safety reasons. Damage caused by user modifications to the device is not covered by the warranty.

VDPL1003xW

• Mechanical wear is not covered by warranty.
• Only use the device for its intended purpose. All other uses may lead to short circuits, burns, electroshocks, lamp explosion, crash, etc. Using the device in an unauthorised way will void the warranty.
• Damage caused by disregard of certain guidelines in this manual is not covered by the warranty and the dealer will not accept responsibility for any ensuing defects or problems.
  • A qualified technician should install and service this device.
• Do not switch the device on immediately after it has been exposed to changes in temperature. Protect the device against damage by leaving it switched off until it has reached room temperature.
• This device is designed for professional use on stage, in discos, theatres, etc. The VDPL1003xW can be used indoor (<35°C, <75%RH) with an alternating current of max. 240V AC/50Hz.
• Lighting effects are not designed for permanent operation: regular operation breaks will prolong their lives.
  • Use the original packaging if the device is to be transported.
• Keep this manual for future reference.

6. Installation

Refer to the illustrations on page 2 of this manual.

a) Overhead mounting

• Have the device installed by a qualified person, respecting EN 60598-2-17 and all other applicable norms.
• The construction to which the device is attached should be able to support 10 times the weight of the device for one hour without deformation.
• The installation must always be secured with a secondary attachment e.g. a safety cable.
• Never stand directly below the device when it is being mounted, removed or serviced. Have a qualified technician check the device once a year and once before you bring it into service.
  • Install the device in a location with few passers-by and inaccessible to unauthorised persons.
• Overhead mounting requires extensive experience: calculating workload limits, determining the installation material to be used... Have the material and the device itself checked regularly. Do not attempt to install the device yourself if you lack these qualifications as improper installation may result in serious injuries.
• For truss-mounting, use an appropriate clamp (not incl.) and fit an M10 bolt through the centre of the (folded) bracket.
• Adjust the desired inclination angle via the mounting bracket and tighten the bracket screws.

b) DMX-512 connection

• When applicable, connect an XLR cable to the female 3-pin XLR output of a controller (not incl.) and the other side to the male 3-pin XLR input of the VDPL1003xW. Multiple VDPL1003xW's can be linked through serial linking. The linking cable should be a dual core, screened cable with XLR input and output connectors.
• Maximum recommended serial data link distance is 500 meters (1640 ft). Maximum recommended number of fixtures on a serial data link is 32 fixtures.
• A DMX terminator is recommended for installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance or is in an electrically noisy environment (e.g. discos). The terminator prevents corruption of the

VDPL1003xW

digital control signal by electrical noise. The DMX terminator is simply an XLR plug with a 120Ω resistor between pins 2 and 3, which is then plugged into the XLR output socket of the last device in the chain.

c) general

• Make sure there is no flammable material within a 50cm radius of the device and there is sufficient cooling.
• Have a qualified electrician carry out the electrical connection.
• All fixtures must be powered directly off a grounded switched circuit and cannot be run off a rheostat or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel is used solely for 0% to 100% switch.
• The installation has to be approved by an expert before the device is taken into service.

7. Operation

Refer to the illustrations on page 2 of this manual.

Stand-Alone Mode

Auto Mode

• Press until P- isplayed
• Use or to select the desired program P - 1 P - 10 ( P - 10 = loop of P - 1 P - 9 ).
• Press until 5 - isplayed
• Use or to select the desired running speed 5000 \~ 5100 (5000 = ow, s 5100 = fast).

Sound-Active Mode

This mode allows a single unit to run to the beat of the music.

• Press until SoUD displayed.
• Use the audio sensitivity knob on the back of the fixture [5] to make the fixture more or less sensitive.

Slave Mode

This mode allows a unit to follow the output of a master unit which has been set to Auto or Sound-Active mode.

• Set the master unit to auto or sound-activated mode.
• On each slave unit, press until SLAU is displayed.

DMX Mode

This mode allows you to control the fixture by any universal DMX controller.

• All DMX-controlled devices need a digital start address so that the correct device responds to the signals. This digital start address is the channel number from which the device starts to "listen" to the DMX controller. The same starting address can be used for a whole group of devices or an individual address can be set for every device.
• When all devices have the same address, all the units will "listen" to the control signal on one

VDPL1003xW

particular channel. In other words: changing the settings of one channel will affect all devices simultaneously. If you set individual addresses, each device will "listen" to a separate channel number. Changing the settings of one channel will only affect the device in question.

Example:

• I n case of the 5-channel VDPL1003xW, you will have to set the start address of the first unit to 1 (CH1\~5), the second unit to 6 (1 + 5) (CH6\~10), the third to 11 (6 + 5) (CH11\~15), and so on.
• In case of the 12-channel VDPL 1003xW, you will have to set the start address of the first unit to 1 (CH1\~12), the second unit to 13 (1 + 12) (CH13\~24), the third to 25 (13 + 12) (CH25\~36), and so on.
• Press until the DMX channel mode ( SCH or 12CH) is displayed.
  • Use or to select the desired DMX mode ( SCH or 12CH mode)
• Press until the DMX address (d---) is shown.
• Use or to set the desired starting address (d001 \~ d512).
