  Dotz Flood                              Power Cord Daisy Chaining

With  this  feature  you  can  connect  the  fixtures  to  one  another 

using the IEC input and output sockets. The quantity that can be 

connected is 5 fixtures maximum. After 5 fixtures you will need to 

use a new power outlet. They must be the same fixtures. DO NOT 

mix fixtures.

  Dotz Flood                                                           Cleaning

Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the internal and exter-

nal optical lenses must be carried out periodically to optimize light 

output.  
1.   Use a soft cloth to wipe down the outside casing.
Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture 

operates (i.e. smoke, fog residue, dust, dew). 

Listed below are a few common problems the user may encounter, 

with solutions.
Unit not responding to DMX:
1.  Check that the DMX cables are connected properly and are    

  wired correctly (pin 3 is “hot”; on some other DMX devices    

  pin 2 may be ‘hot’). Also, check that all cables are connected   

  to the right connectors; it does matter which way the inputs    

  and outputs are connected.
Unit does not respond to sound:
1.  Quiet or high pitched sounds will not activate the unit.
If problems are not resolved; Contact ADJ Products, LLC for service.

  Dotz Flood                                               Troubleshooting 

Locate and remove the unit’s power cord. Once the cord has been 

removed  located  the  fuse  holder  located  inside  the  power  socket. 

Insert a flat-head screw driver into the power socket and gently pry out 

the fuse holder. Remove the bad fuse and replace with a new one. The 

fuse holder has a built-in socket for a spare fuse be sure not to confuse 

the spare fuse with active fuse.

The unit should be mounted using a mounting clamp (not provided), 

affixing it to the mounting bracket that is provided with the unit. 

Always ensure that the unit is firmly fixed to avoid vibration and slip-

ping while operating. Always ensure that the structure to which you 

are attaching the unit is secure and is able to support a weight of 10 

times the unit’s weight. Also, always use a safety cable that can hold 

12 times the weight of the unit when installing the fixture.

The equipment must be installed by a professional, and it must be 

installed in a place where it is out of the reach of people’s grasp.
