NOTICE!

Operating conditions

This device has been designed for indoor use only. To prevent damage, never expose the device to any liquid or moisture. Avoid direct sunlight, heavy dirt, and strong vibrations.

Only operate the device within the ambient conditions specified in the chapter 'Technical specifications' of this user manual. Avoid heavy temperature fluctuations and do not switch the device on immediately after it was exposed to temperature fluctuations (for example after transport at low outside temperatures).

Dust and dirt inside can damage the unit. When operated in harmful ambient conditions (dust, smoke, nicotine, fog, etc.), the unit should be maintained by qualified service personnel at regular intervals to prevent overheating and other malfunction.

Fun Generation Pot System COB - Operating conditions - 1

NOTICE!

Power supply

Before connecting the device, ensure that the input voltage (AC outlet) matches the voltage rating of the device and that the AC outlet is protected by a residual current circuit breaker. Failure to do so could result in damage to the device and possibly injure the user.

Unplug the device before electrical storms occur and when it is unused for long periods of time to reduce the risk of electric shock or fire.

Fun Generation Pot System COB - Power supply - 1

NOTICE!

Possible damage due to installation of a wrong fuse

The use of different types of fuses can cause serious damage to the unit. Fire hazard!

Only fuses of the same type may be used.

NOTICE!

Risk of short-circuits

Short-circuits may cause irreparable damages of the device. They can occur when you remove or change cables of the spots during operation.

Disconnect the device from the power supply before you change the cabling.

Fun Generation Pot System COB - Risk of short-circuits - 1

NOTICE!

Damages due to disconnection during operation

Only operate the unit when all spotlights are connected.

The disconnection of LED spotlights during operation may damage the unit. Disconnect the unit from the power supply before disconnecting LED spotlights.

3 Features

The LED light set offers an ideal combination of white and coloured light for parallel illumination of stage and dance floor in various shades.

■ four LED spots, each with one 40 W COB LED (RGB WW), pre-mounted on T-bar
Control via DMX (four different modes), via buttons and display on the unit as well as infrared remote control (supplied)
■ Preprogrammed automatic shows
Sound control
Master / Slave mode
- Noiseless operation due to convection cooling
■ Sturdy transport bag included
- Optionally available accessories: Stand, foot switch unit

For technological reasons, the light output of LEDs decreases over their lifetime. This effect increases with higher operating temperature. You can extend the service life of the illuminants by providing adequate ventilation and operating the LEDs with the lowest possible brightness.

5 Starting up

Create all connections while the device is off. Use the shortest possible high-quality cables for all connections. Take care when running the cables to prevent tripping hazards.

Connections in DMX mode

Connect the DMX input of the device to the DMX output of a DMX controller or another DMX device. Connect the output of the first DMX device to the input of the second one, and so on to form a daisy chain. Always ensure that the output of the last DMX device in the daisy chain is terminated with a resistor (110 Ω, ¼ W).

Connections in master/slave mode

When you configure a group of devices in master/slave mode, the first unit will control the other units for an automatic, sound-activated, synchronized show. This function is ideal when you want to start a show immediately. Connect the DMX output of the master device to the DMX input of the first slave device. Then connect the DMX output of the first slave device to the DMX input of the second slave device and so on.

9 Troubleshooting

Fun Generation Pot System COB - Troubleshooting - 1

NOTICE!

Possible data transmission errors

For error-free operation make use of dedicated DMX cables and do not use ordinary microphone cables.

Never connect the DMX input or output to audio devices such as mixers or amplifiers.

In the following we list a few common problems that may occur during operation. We give you some suggestions for easy troubleshooting:

LED Pot SystemCOB 40W RGB WW

Fun Generation Pot System COB - Possible data transmission errors - 1

Symptom Remedy
The unit does not work, no light Check the mains connection and the main fuse.
No response to the DMX controller1. If the dot after the last digit in the display does not flash in ‘DMX’ mode, no DMX signal is received. Check whether the DMX controller is switched on. Check the DMX connectors and cables for proper connection.
2. If the dot after the last digit in the display is flashing but there is still no response, check the address settings and the DMX polarity.
3. Try using another DMX controller.
4. Check whether the DMX cables run near or parallel to high-voltage cables that may cause damage or interference to a DMX interface circuit.

If the procedures recommended above do not succeed, please contact our Service Center. You can find the contact information at www.thomann.de.

10 Plug and connection assignments

Introduction

This chapter will help you select the right cables and plugs to connect your valuable equipment so that a perfect light experience is guaranteed.

Please take our tips, because especially in 'Sound & Light' caution is indicated: Even if a plug fits into a socket, the result of an incorrect connection may be a destroyed DMX controller, a short circuit or 'just' a not working light show!

11 Cleaning

Optical lenses

Clean the optical lenses, that are accessible from the outside, regularly in order to optimize the light output. The frequency of cleaning depends on the operating environment: wet, smoky or particularly dirty surroundings can cause more accumulation of dirt on the optics of the device.

■ Clean with a soft cloth using our lamp and lens cleaner (item no. 280122).
■ Always dry the parts carefully.

Fan grids

The fan grids of the device must be cleaned of any contamination, such as dust, etc. on a regular basis. Before cleaning, switch off the device and disconnect mains-operated devices from the mains. Only use pH-neutral, solvent-free and non-abrasive cleaning agents. Clean the unit with a slightly damp lint-free cloth.
