Power Supply:
The ADJ Sweeper Beam Quad LED contains a auto-
matic voltage switch, which will auto sense the voltage when it is
plugged into the 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 by most lighting and controller manufactures as a form of
communication between intelligent fixtures and controllers. A DMX
controller sends DMX data instructions from the controller to the fix-
ture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from fixture to fixture
via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals 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
compliant. 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. Therefore, the first fixture controlled
by the controller could be the last fixture in the chain. 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 and Master/Slave
Operation):
The Sweeper Beam Quad LED can be controlled via
DMX-512 protocol. The Sweeper Beam Quad LED
has 4 DMX Channel Modes. The DMX address is
set electronically using the controls on the rear
panel of the unit. Your unit and your DMX control-
ler 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

Hanging Precautions
Fixture installation must always be secured with a secondary
safety attachment, such as an appropriate safety cable.
Regardless of the rigging option you choose for your Sweeper
Beam Quad LED always be sure to secure your fixture with a
safety cable (not included).
Caution: For added protection mount the fixtures in areas out-
side of walking paths, seating areas, or areas were the fixture
might be reached by unauthorized personal.
Before mounting the fixture to any surface, make sure that the
installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10 times the
device’s weight.
To avoid injury, never stand directly below the device when
mounting, removing, or servicing the fixture.
Always use and install a safety cable ( not included) as a safety
measure to prevent accidental damage and/or injury in the
event the clamp fails.
Be sure to complete all rigging and installation procedures
before connecting the main power cord to the appropriate wall
outlet.
