Power Supply:
The ADJ Inno Color Beam Z7 contains a automatic
voltage switch, which will auto sense the voltage when it is plugged
into a power source. With this switch there is no need to worry about
the correct power voltage, this unit can be plugged in anywhere.
DMX-512:
DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal pro-
tocol used as a form of communication between intelligent fixtures
and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions from
the controller to the fixture. DMX data is sent as serial data that trav-
els from fixture to fixture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR ter-
minals located on all DMX fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA
“OUT” terminal).
DMX Linking:
DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of
different manufactures to be linked together and operate from a single
controller, as long as all fixtures and the controller are DMX compli-
ant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several
DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. The order
in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the
DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1
may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end,
or anywhere in the middle. When a fixture is assigned a DMX address
of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to address 1
to that unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.
Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX Operation):
The Inno Color Beam Z7 can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The
Inno Color Beam Z7 is a 14 Channel DMX unit. The DMX address is
set on the front panel of the Inno Color Beam Z7. Your unit and your
DMX controller require a approved DMX-512 110 Ohm Data cable for
data input and data output (Figure 1). We recommend Accu-Cable
DMX cables. If you are making your own cables,
be sure to use standard 110-120 Ohm shielded
cable (This cable may be purchased at almost
all professional sound and lighting stores). Your
cables should be made with a male and female
XLR connector on either end of the cable. Also
remember that DMX cable must be daisy chained
and cannot be split.
Inno Color Beam Z7 Set Up
Figure 1
Screw one clamp via a M12 screw and nut onto the Omega
holder. Insert the quick-lock fasteners of the first Omega holder
into the respective holes on the bottom of the Inno Color Beam
Z7. Tighten the quick-lock fasteners fully clockwise. Pull the
safety-cable through the two slots located on the base under-
neath the Omega holder and then over the trussing system or a
safe fixation spot. Insert the end in the carabine and tighten the
safety screw.
NOTICE:
The suitable enviromental temperature for this light-
ing fixture is between -25˚ C to 45˚ C. Do not place this lighting
fixture in an enviroment where the temperatures are under or
above the temperatures stated above. This will allow the fixture
to run at its best and help prolong the fixture life.
