Starball LED DMX™
Operation
controller gives freedom to create unique programs tailored to one’s
individual needs.
1. The Starball LED DMX™ uses 2 DMX channels. Channel 1 con-
trols the dimmer/strobe, and channel 2 controls dome rotation.
See the bottom of this page for the DMX traits.
2. To control your fixture in DMX mode, follow the set-up proce-
dures on pages 5 - 7 as well as the set-up specifications that are
included with your DMX controller. Using the dipswitches assign a
DMX address to the unit. See page 7 for addressing.
3. For help operating in DMX operation consult the manual included
with your DMX controller.
4. For longer cable runs (more than a 100 feet) use a terminator on
the last fixture.

Trouble Shooting
Trouble Shooting:
Listed below are a few common problems that
you may encounter, with solutions.
No light output from the unit;
1. Be sure you have connected your unit into a wall outlet with a
matching power supply.
2. Be sure the fuse has not blown. The fuse is located above the
power cord.
Disconnect the unit’s main power supply. Insert a standard flat head
screw driver in to the fuse holder housing. Turn the screwdriver in
counter-clockwise direction to remove the fuse holder. Remove the
old fuse and discard it, replace the fuse with the same type. Insert
the fuse holder back into it’s housing and turn in clockwise direction
to lock the holder in place.

Cleaning
Fixture Cleaning:
Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the
internal and external optical lenses and mirror should be carried out
periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on
the environment in which the fixture operates (I.e. smoke, fog residue,
dust, dew). In heavy club use we recommend cleaning on a monthly
basis. Periodic cleaning will ensure longevity, and crisp output.
1. Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the out-
side casing.
2. Use a brush to wipe down the cooling vents and fan grill.
3. Clean the external optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth every
20 days.
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
back in.
