6. MAKING THE CONNECTIONS
6.1 Connection with the mains
1
Connect the device to the mains with the power plug (230 V AC, 50 Hz ~). The occupation of the
connection cables is as follows:
Cable Pin
International
Brown Live
L
Blue Neutral
N
Yellow/Green Earth
Attention!
The earth has to be connected! If the device will be directly connected with the local power
supply network, a disconnection switch with a minimum opening of 3 mm at every pole has to be
included in the permanent electrical installation. The
device must only be connected with an electric
installation carried out in compliance with the IEC standards. The electric installation must be equipped
with a Residual Current Device (RCD) with a maximum fault current of 30 mA.
2
To switch off the unit, disconnect the power plug.
3
Do not connect the light set to the mains voltage via a dimmer. For a more convenient operation,
connect the light set to a mains outlet which is switchable.
6.2 Connection to a DMX512 controller
To connect the controller with the fixture or one fixture with another only use a stereo shielded cable and
3-pin XLR plugs and connectors. If you wish to connect DMX controllers with other XLR outputs, you need to
use adapter cables.
Occupation of the XLR connection:
1
Connect the DMX output of your DMX controller to your DMX input of the light set.
2
Connect the DMX output of the first fixture in the DMX chain to the DMX input of the next fixture. Always
connect one output to the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are connected.
3
At the last fixture, the DMX cable has to be terminated with a terminator. For this solder a 120
resistor between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a 3-pin XLR plug and plug it in the DMX output of the last
fixture.
The wires must not come into contact with each other, otherwise
the fixtures will not work at all, or will not work properly.
