C. How to set the DIP-switches to obtain the right starting address:
This is the traditional way: MUCH slower…
On the back of the LED PAR you will see that each of the first 9 DIP-switches corresponds to a
certain DMX-value (DIP-switch 10 is not used):
Dip
#1
#2
#3
#4
#5
#6
#7
#8
#9
Value
1
2
4
8
16
32
64
128
256
You can combine the values of these switches to obtain any starting address between 1 and 512:
Begin address = 01
switch 1=ON
values: 1
Begin address = 05
switch 1+3=ON
values: 1+4 = 5
Begin address = 09
switch 1+4=ON
values: 1+8 = 9
Begin address = 13
switch 1+3+4=ON
values: 1+4+8 = 13
…
Begin address = 62
3+4+5+6=ON
values: 2+4+8+16+32 = 62
OVERHEAD RIGGING
Important: The installation must be carried out by qualified service personal only. Improper
installation can result in serious injuries and/or damage to property. Overhead rigging requires
extensive experience! Working load limits should be respected, certified installation materials
should be used, the installed device should be inspected regularly for safety.
Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during rigging, de-rigging
and servicing.
The device should be installed out of reach of people and outside areas where
persons may walk by or be seated.
Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of
10times the device’s weight.
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!
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.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
A. Standalone 1unit:
Just connect the unit to the mains and put on some music. The unit starts working automatically to the
rhythm of the music.
Remark:
You can connect a CA-8 remote controller to the unit if you want to have more control.
B. Two or more units in master/slave setup:
Connect 2 to maximum 16 units together. Refer to the chapter “electrical installation” to learn how to
do this (don’t forget to address all units properly!)
Connect all units to the mains and put on some music. The units will start working automatically to the
rhythm of the music and show the internal chase programs.
Remark:
You can connect a CA-8 remote controller to the master unit if you want to have more control
over the master/slave operation.
C. Connect the optional CA-8 controller for more control:
The CA-8 controller can only be used in standalone or master/slave mode. Connect the controller to the
CA-8 input of the first unit (master). Now you can control all the connected units:

D. Controlled by universal DMX-controller:
Connect all units together. Refer to the chapter “Electrical installation for two or more units in DMX-
mode” to learn how to do this (don’t forget to address all units properly!)
Connect all units to the mains and turn on the DMX controller.
Since each unit has its own DMX-address, you can control them individually. Remember that each unit
uses 4 DMX-channels as shown in the DMX chart below:
BEAM ANGLE + FILTER FRAME
With LED PAR projectors you can project any RGB color you want so normally there’s no need for a color
filter frame. However with this projector the filter frame is used to influence the beam angle of the spot:
To obtain nice colored beams with high intensity the beam angle of this projector is only 15°. This is perfect
for DJ and stage applications but for some architectural applications you need a wider beam. In these cases
you can install a special FROST filter in the filter frame to widen the beam and obtain a nice, evenly
distributed light output. You can obtain such frost filters from Briteq

MAINTENANCE
Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during servicing.
Switch the unit off and unplug the mains cable.
During inspection the following points should be checked:
All screws used for installing the device and any of its parts should be tightly fastened and may not be
corroded.
Housings, fixations and installations spots (ceiling, truss, suspensions) should be totally free from any
deformation.
