3 Applications
This flat LED spotlight serves for illumination e. g.
on stage, in discotheques and festival rooms. As a
light source, 167 extra bright LEDs with a diameter
of 10 mm are used which have a low power con-
sumption, a low heat development and a long life.
The LEDs allow to radiate white and coloured light.
Besides, colour crossfadings and stroboscopic ef-
fects are possible.
The spotlight can be operated via a DMX con-
troller (5 DMX control channels). However, it can
also be operated without a controller, either on its
own or interconnected with several PARL-14DMX
units in the master
/
slave mode. The integrated
microphone provides effects in sync with the music.
4 Setting into Operation
4.1 Mounting
G
Always place the unit so that a sufficient air circu-
lation is ensured during operation. The air vents
at the housing must not be covered in any case.
G
The distance to the illuminated object should be
50 cm as a minimum.
1. Fix the spotlight via the mounting brackets (1),
e. g. with a stable mounting screw or a support
for lighting units (C hook) to a cross bar.
To align the spotlight, release the two locking
screws (7) at the mounting brackets. Adjust the
desired inclination of the spotlight and retighten
the screws.
2. As an alternative, the spotlight can also be set
up as desired. For this purpose spread the
mounting brackets below the spotlight so that
they serve as a support. Then tighten the locking
screws.
4.2 Power supply
Connect the supplied mains cable to the mains jack
(4) first and then to a socket (230 V~/ 50 Hz). Then
the unit is ready for operation and can be operated
via a DMX light controller (
chapter 5.3) or it runs
independently through the control programme
adjusted (
chapter 5.1). To switch off, disconnect
the mains plug from the socket.
If several PARL-14DMX units are used, the jack
POWER LINK OUTPUT (10) of the first unit can be
connected via a mains cable with an IEC plug and
an IEC inline jack (e. g. AAC-170/SW from the
product range of MONACOR) to the mains jack (4)
of the second unit. The second unit can again be
connected to the third unit etc., until all units are
connected in a chain. Thus, a maximum of 115
units may be interconnected. Then the 116
th
unit
must have a mains connection of its own.
Caution:
The unit must
not be connected to the
mains voltage via a dimmer!
For a more convenient operation it is recommended
to connect the unit to a socket which can be
switched on and off via a light switch.
5 Operation
5.1 Operation without DMX control unit
5.1.1 Music-controlled programmes
1) Press the button FUNC (6).
2) Select the function
with the button UP or
DOWN and confirm with the button ENT.
3) Select the desired control programme with the
button UP or DOWN and confirm with the button
ENT. The display (5) shows the programme:
The lighting colour is changed by music
control (mode 1).
Music-controlled stroboscope with colour
change (mode 1)
Music-controlled stroboscope with colour
change (mode 2)
The lighting colour is changed by music
control (mode 2).
If the music is played with a clear rhythm in the
bass range at sufficient volume, the selected pro-
gramme is controlled via the microphone (3). Adjust
the control SENSITIVITY (2) for the microphone
sensitivity so that the dynamic power of the music
is reproduced by the unit in an optimum way. For
WARNING
Never look directly into the light
source for a longer time; this may
cause eye damage.
Please note that fast changes in
lighting, e. g. flashing light, may trig-
ger epileptic seizures with photosen-
sitive persons or persons with epi
-
lepsy!
WARNING
The spotlight must be mounted in a
safe and expert way. If it is installed
at a place where people may walk or
sit under it, it must additionally be
secured, e. g. by a safety rope. Lead
the safety rope through the lug (9)
and fix it so that the maximum falling
distance of the unit would not exceed
20 cm.
