Getting It Out Of The Box

 

Congratulations on purchasing the LightCaster™ W-DMX™ system, the ultimate solution to 
make all those messy DMX cord nightmares a thing of the past! Now that you’ve got your 
W-DMX system (or hopefully, systems!), you should carefully unpack the box and check 
the contents to ensure that all parts are present and in good condition. If anything looks 
as if it has been damaged in transit, notify the shipper immediately and keep the pack-
ing material for inspection.  Again, please save the carton and all packing materials. If a 

fixture must be returned to the factory, it is important that the fixture be returned in the 

original factory box and packing.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Please keep this User Manual for future consultation. If you sell the unit to another user, 

be sure that they also receive this instruction booklet.

• Always make sure that you are connecting to the proper voltage, and that the line 

voltage you are connecting to is not higher than that stated on the decal or rear panel of 

the fixture.

• This product is intended for indoor use only!

• To prevent risk of fire or shock, do not expose fixture to rain or moisture.

• In the event of a serious operating problem, stop using the unit. 

• Never try to repair the unit by yourself. Repairs carried out by unskilled people can lead 
to damage or malfunction. 

• Never connect the device to a dimmer pack.

• Make sure the power cord is never crimped or damaged.

• Never disconnect the power cord by pulling or tugging on the cord.

CAUTION! There are no user serviceable parts inside the unit. Do not open the

happy to help, honest.
