Frequently Asked Questions - LightBox 7 BeamZ

What should I do if the device is not responding?

Check that the device is powered on, that the power cable is properly connected, and that the fuse has not blown. If the problem persists, contact BeamZ support.

How to clean the projector?

Unplug the device and let it cool down. Use a soft lint-free cloth or low-pressure compressed air to remove dust. Do not use solvents or abrasives.

How to use the remote control?

Remove the protective film from the battery before first use. The remote control uses a CR2025 button cell battery. To use it, point it towards the infrared sensor on the device.

How to connect the device via DMX?

Connect the DMX output of the controller to the DMX input of the first device. Then connect the output of each device to the input of the next. On the last device, place a 120 Ω termination resistor between pins 2 and 3.

What battery does the remote control use and how to change it?

The remote control uses a 3V CR2025 button cell battery. To change it, press the tab on the back and remove the battery holder. Observe polarity (+ pole facing up).

How to replace the fuse?

Unplug the device. Open the fuse holder using a small screwdriver. Remove the old fuse and replace it with a fuse of the same type and rating. Close the fuse holder.

Can I use the device outdoors?

No, this device is designed exclusively for indoor use. Do not expose it to moisture, rain, or extreme temperatures.

How to mount the device on a truss?

Use certified clamps and a safety cable attached to the designated points. The structure must support 10 times the weight of the device. Keep a distance of 50 cm around the device for ventilation.

What does Black Out mode mean?

Black Out mode turns off all lights. Press the corresponding button on the remote control to activate or deactivate it. It allows you to cut the beam without turning off the device.

How to adjust the sound sensitivity?

In Sound mode, press the SENSITIVITY button on the remote control, then use the + and - arrows to increase or decrease sensitivity to ambient sound.

POWERSUPPLY

On the label on the backside of the unit is indicated on this type of power supply must be connected. Check that the mains voltage corresponds to this, all other voltages than specified, the light effect can be irreparably damaged. The product must also be directly connected to the mains and may be used. No dimmer or adjustable power supply.

WARNING! Always connect the unit to a protected circuit (circuit breaker or fuse). Make sure the unit has an appropriate electrical ground to

avoid the risk of electrocution or fire.

RIGGING

The unit may be set up on a stable and even surface. By means of the fixing facilities of the baseplate, the unit can also be mounted upside down to a truss, see below picture. For fixing, certified clamps with correct save working load are required. The mounting place must be of sufficient stability and be able to support a weight of 10 times of the unit's weight. Secure the unit with a safety cable so that it cannot fall down.

When carrying out any installation, always comply European and national guidelines concerning rigging, truss and all other safety issues. Always let the installation checked out by an authorized dealer!

DMX512 CONTROL

If you are using a standard DMX controller, you can connect the DMX output of the controller directly to the DMX input of the first unit in a DMX chain. Always connect the output of one unit with the input of the next unit until all units are connected.

For this purpose, on the rear side of the remote control press the small bar with the groove to the right (1) and at the same time remove the battery support (2). For operation, one 3 V button cell type CR 2025 is required. When inserting, pay attention that the positive pole of the button cell shows upwards in the support.

CLEANING

The buildup of dust, dirt and other airborne particles will reduce the unit's light output. It will also prevent the unit from cooling correctly, and this will reduce the unit's lifetime. The rate of dirt buildup will vary depending on environmental factors such as airborne dust, use of smoke machines, airflow from ventilation systems, etc. The unit's cooling fans will accelerate buildup, and any smoke particles that are present in the atmosphere will increase the tendency for dirt to clog.

To get the best performance and lifetime from the unit, inspect it regularly and clean it as soon as you see signs of dirt buildup.

Assess the operating environment each time you begin to use the unit. In dusty or smoky conditions, inspect the unit after a few hours and check it frequently the unit may attract dirt faster than you expect. Draw up a cleaning schedule that will make sure that dirt is removed before it can build up.

Use the following guidelines:

• Disconnect the unit from power and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
• Do not use solvents, abrasives or any other aggressive product to clean the unit.
• Vacuum or use low-pressure compressed air to remove dust and loose particles from surfaces and air vents. Prevent the blades of cooling fans from turning before you aim a vacuum or air jet at the fan, or you may spin the fan too fast and damage it.
• Clean glass components by wiping gently with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth moistened with a weak detergent solution. Put the solution on the cloth and not on the surface to be cleaned. Avoid rubbing glass surfaces.
• Dry the unit with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth or low-pressure compressed air before reapplying power.

REPLACING THE FUSE

If the fuse is defective, replace the fuse with a fuse of the same type and value. Before replacing the fuse, unplug mains lead.

Procedure:

Step 1: Open the fuse holder on the rear panel with a fitting screwdriver.

Step 2: Remove the old fuse from the fuse holder.

Step 3: Install the new fuse in the fuse holder.

Step 4: Replace the fuse holder in the housing.

TROUBLE SHOOTING

The checklist below may help you troubleshoot in the unlikely event that a problem occurs while using the product:

Unit resets correctly but does not respond (or does not respond correctly) to the controller.	The controller is not connected.Bad DMX-line.DMX-line has no end resistance.Incorrect unit addressing.A unit is defective and is disturbing data transmission on the DMX-line.Pin 2 and 3 are reversed in XLR connection.	Connect controller.Inspect connections and cables. Correct poor connections. Repair or replace damaged cables.Insert DMX terminator plug in DMX output socket of last unit on DMX-line.Check unit address and DMX mode settings.Unplug DMX IN and OUT connectors and connect them directly together to bypass one unit at a time until normal operation is regained.Have defective unit serviced by an authorized technician.Inspect connections and cables. Install a phase-reversing cable between the units or swap pin 2 and 3 in the unit, that behaves erratically.
Error after unit reset.	Effect requires mechanical adjustment.	Check unit's software version and error messages for more information. Contact Beamz support or Beamz authorized service partner.
Light output cuts out intermittently.	Unit too hot.LEDs damaged.The power supply settings do not match local AC voltage and frequency.	Allow unit to cool. Reduce ambient temperature.
