Always use a certified safety cable that can hold 12times the weight of the device
when installing the unit. This secondary safety attachment should be installed in a way
that no part of the installation can drop more than 20cm if the main attachment fails.
The device should be well fixed; a free-swinging mounting is dangerous and may not
be considered!
Don’t cover any ventilation openings as this may result in overheating.
The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical
installations are approved by an expert before using them for the first time. The installations should be
inspected every year by a skilled person to be sure that safety is still optimal.
ELECTRICAL INSTAL ADDRESSING
Important: The electrical installation should be carried out by qualified personal only,
according to the regulations for electrical and mechanical safety in your country.
Master / Slave mode:
Connect the projectors together as shown on the drawing. Please refer to the paragraph
“SETUP MENU” to
setup the master. You can also switch the IR-remote on the master to ON and use the included IR-remote.
All slaves must be set to SLAVE-mode. You can put as many slaves as you like on condition that the overall
power consumption on the power line stays under 10A (2300W).
IMPORTANT: make sure that no DMX-controller is connected, this will result in unexpected behavior!
Electrical installation for two or more units in DMX-mode:
The DMX-protocol is a widely used high speed signal to control intelligent light equipment. You need to
“daisy chain” your DMX controller and all the connected units.
Use the supplied DMX input conversion cable (IP-cabling to XLR-male) to connect the first unit in the line
to the controller.
Pin layout XLR-3pin: Pin1 = GND ~ Pin2 = Negative signal (-) ~ Pin3 = Positive signal
(+)
Pin layout XLR-5pin: Pin1 = GND ~ Pin2 = Negative signal (-) ~ Pin3 = Positive signal
(+) ~ Pins4+5 not used.
To prevent strange behavior of the light effects, due to interferences, you must use a
90Ω to 120Ω terminator at the end of the chain. Never use Y-splitter cables, this simply won’t work!
If the projector is followed by units that have a regular DMX-input with XLR-3pin, please use the supplied
DMX output conversion cable (IP-cabling to XLR-female) to make the connection.
Make sure that all units are connected to the mains.
