  Flash Shot DMX                                                     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 normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the 
 

outside casing.

2.   Clean the external optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth 
 

every 20 days.

3.  Always be sure to dry all parts completely before plugging 
 

the unit back in.

Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture 
operates (i.e. smoke, fog residue, dust, dew). 

  Flash Shot DMX                                       Trouble Shooting

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. 
2.  You must be in DMX Mode and have the Channel 1 fader between  
 

values 2-127 and the Channel 3 fader between values 200 - 255.
