4. Installation in DMX-mode for use with a universal DMX controller:
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 with a good quality balanced cable.
Connect the first unit to the DMX controller or to the previous light effect in the DMX chain.
Both XLR-3pin and XLR-5pin connectors are used, however XLR-3pin is more popular because these
cables are compatible with balanced audio cables.
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 90
Ω
to 120
Ω
terminator at the end of the chain. Never use Y-splitter cables, this
simply won’t work!
Make sure that all units are connected to the mains.
Each light effect in the chain needs to have its proper starting address so it knows
which commands from the controller it has to decode. In the next section you will learn how to set the
DMX addresses.
How to set the DIP-switches to obtain the right starting address:
On the back of the Led Micro Scan you will see that each of the first 9 DIP-switches corresponds to
certain value:
Dip
#1
#2
#3
#4
#5
#6
#7
#8
#9
#10
Value
1
2
4
8
16
32
64
128
256
ON = 1 Channel mode
OFF= 6 Channel mode
You can combine the values of these switches to become any starting address between 1 and 512:
Start address = 01
switch 1=ON
values: 1
Start address = 07
switch 1+2+3=ON
values: 1+2+4 = 7
Start address = 13
switch 1+3+4=ON
values: 1+4+8 = 13
Start address = 19
switch 1+2+5=ON
values: 1+2+16 = 19

MAINTENANCE
Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during servicing.
Switch off the unit, unplug the mains cable and wait until the unit has been cooled down.
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.
When an optical lens is visibly damaged due to cracks or deep scratches, it must be replaced.
The mains cables must be in impeccable condition and should be replaced immediately when even a
small problem is detected.
In order to protect the device from overheat the cooling fans (if any) and ventilation openings should be
cleaned monthly.
The interior of the device should be cleaned annually using a vacuum cleaner or air-jet.
The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out periodically to
optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates: damp,
smoky or particularly dirty surroundings can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the unit’s optics.
Clean with a soft cloth using normal glass cleaning products.
Always dry the parts carefully.
Attention: We strongly recommend internal cleaning to be carried out by qualified persons!
