Linking

Linking:

 Your fixture comes with a built-in controller. This controller 

may be used to control up to 16 units when daisy-chained together in 

a master-slave configuration. Any unit can function as either a “Master 

Unit”  or  a  “Slave  Unit.”  Link  the  units  together  using  standard  DMX 

cable.

Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust, cleaning the internal and external 

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.   Use a brush to wipe down the fan grill.

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

      20  days.  Situation  may  very.  If  used  heavily  in  clubs  with  lots  of 

      fog, cleaning may be required more often.

4.   Clean the internal optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth every 

      30-60 days.

5.   Always  be  sure  to  dry  all  parts  completely  before  plugging  the 

      unit in.
Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture 

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