SAFETY WARNINGS AND GUIDELINES

Do not expose this device to water or moisture of any kind. Do not place drinks or other containers with moisture on or near the device. If moisture does get in or on the device, immediately unplug it from the power outlet.

This device is intended for indoor use only.

This device uses a grounded power cord and requires a ground connection for safe operation. Ensure that the power source has a proper ground connection. Do not modify the plug or use a "cheater" plug to bypass the ground connection.

Ensure that the power outlet used to connect this device does not exceed the rated maximum voltage, listed on the back panel of the device.

Ensure that power is turned off and disconnected before making any electrical connections.

Disconnect from the power source during lightning storms or when not in use.

Take care to prevent damage to the power cord. Do not allow it to become crimpled, pinched, walked on, or become tangled with other cords.

When disconnecting the power cord do not pull on the cord itself. Instead, grasp the plug connector head to disconnect it from the power socket.

The power cord uses the US standard color coding with green for ground.

This device has no user serviceable parts. Do not attempt to open, service, or modify this device.

Do not use chemical cleaners or solvents to clean the cabinet. Use only a soft dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, moisten the cloth with warm water.

This device ventilates excessive heat through the slots and openings in the case. Do not block or cover these openings. Ensure that the device is in an open area where it can get sufficient airflow to keep from overheating.

INTRODUCTION

WHITE BALANCE

The White Balance function allows you to adjust the overall tint of the light produced by having all LED colors on. You can adjust how much of each individual color element is allowed to be displayed.

Note that when White Balance is active, it effects the overall light output. For example, if in the White Balance function you set the Red light brightness value to 000 (no brightness), you will not see any red in any of the light produced by this fixture, even if using a preset program or directly accessing the red color.

Editing the white balance involves sequentially setting the following values:

r.000 - r.255	Red brightness
G.000 - G.255	Green brightness
b.000 - b.255	Blue brightness
J.000 - J.255	Amber brightness
A.000 - A.255	White brightness
U.000 - U.255	Ultraviolet brightness
USon/USoF	White balance on/off
SEon/SEoF	Send white balance values on/off
rEt	Save and exit

Notes:

USon = White balance is on

USoF = White balance if off

SEon = The white balance values will be sent to other lights in this universe.

SEoF = The local white balance values will NOT be sent to other lights.

rEt = Press the Enter button with this displayed to save the settings and exit. If you don't want to save the changes, press the Menu button to back out of this entry.

NODE

The Node function serves as a speed limiter for manual dims and fades. When set to nod0, any manual dims or fades will be in real time, meaning that light will dim or fade as fast as you move the slider on the controller. The other Node values (1-4) are progressively slower than real time.

Note that this functionality is expanded in channel 11 of the 11-channel DMX control mode.

MASTER/SLAVE MODE

Whenever the light is set to a mode other than a DMX address or Slave mode, it is considered to be in Master mode. For example, when set to the Sound Activated operation, it is in a Master mode.

When the light is the Master, it will send DMX instructions to other connected lights. Those other lights must be set to Slave mode (SLAU) to receive and execute the instructions sent by the Master light.

Note: Only one light in any DMX Universe can be the Master. All other lights in the chain must be set to Slave mode (SL.AU).

DMX CONTROL

When the light is set to a DMX address it will respond to signals from a DMX controller. The number and complexity of the signals it can respond to correspond directly to the number of channels selected. The following tables show the functions and values for each channel in the four different channel modes (3, 6, 8, 10, or 11).

DMX TERMINATION

As with all DMX devices, the last unit in any chain must have a DMX terminator connected to the DMX output. If using just a single light, connect a DMX terminator to the DMX output.

A DMX terminator is a DMX plug with a 120-ohm, 1/4-watt resistor soldered between pins 2 and 3.

SAMPLE WIRING DIAGRAM

The following diagram shows a sample wiring chain using multiple lights. Note that as with all DMX chains, the last unit must have a DMX terminator connected to the DMX output.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Following are some sample problems and potential solutions to those problems.

Q1: The light does not turn on and the menu will not display.

A1: Check the power cable to ensure it is properly plugged in. Check the source power outlet by plugging in a different device.

Q2: The light will not turn on, but the menu does display.

A2: Using the menu, ensure that the color dimmers are not all set to 000.

Q3: The light does not respond to DMX commands.

A3: Ensure that the light is set to DMX mode with a valid DMX address. Check for address conflicts with other devices. Check the cabling to ensure that there is continuity between the light and the DMX controller. Verify that there is a terminator at the end of the chain. Verify that the DMX controller is operating properly with another DMX device.
