OPERATION
After you connected the spot to the mains, the EUROLITE LED CLS-20 HCL starts running.
The LC display lights up and you can choose the desired mode via the buttons MODE, ENTER, UP and
DOWN.
The device has two operating modes. It can be operated in stand-alone mode via LC display with operating
buttons or in DMX-controlled mode via a lighting controller.
Stand-alone mode
In the stand-alone mode, you can do without a controller. Disconnect the EUROLITE LED CLS-20 HCL from
the controller.
Control Board
The Control Board offers several features: you can simply set the starting address or the brightness.
Browse through the main menu by pressing MODE. You can browse through the selection menu and confirm
your choice by pressing ENTER. You can change the selection by pressing UP or DOWN.
The functions provided are described in the following sections.
RDM
With this function you can call up various submenus via RDM.
This device is RDM ready. RDM stands for "Remote Device Management" and makes remote control of
devices connected to the DMX-bus possible. ANSI E1.20-2006 by ESTA specifies the RDM standard as an
extension of the DMX512 protocol.
Manual settings like adjusting the DMX starting address are no longer needed. This is especially useful when
the device is installed in a remote area.
RDM is integrated n the DMX-protocol without influencing the connections. The RDM-data is transmitted via
the standard XLR-poles 1 and 2 – new DMX-cables are not necessary. RDM ready and conventional DMX
devices can be operated in one DMX line. The RDM protocol sends own packages in the DMX512 data feed
and does not influence conventional devices.
If DMX splitters are used and RDM control is to be used, these splitters must support RDM.
The number and type of RDM parameters depend on the (optional) RDM controller being used.
In order to see or to change the RDM PID code if required, press the MODE button and choose

ID.

You can now see or, if necessary, change the individual RDM PID code of the fixture via the UP or DOWN
button.
Please press the ENTER button to confirm.
