The device has a power output to supply power to another device. When connecting several devices
in a daisy chain via this output, make sure that the total current does not exceed the power line’s
nominal current. Use power cables with an adequate section.
The installation has to be approved by an expert before the device is taken into service.
1.
Install the clamp onto the Omega bracket.
2.
Install the clamp-bracket assembly onto the device.
3.
Install the assembly onto an appropriate truss and fasten. Secure with a secondary safety rope.

Connecting the Device
Power
Connect the device to the mains with the power plug.
Power all devices directly off a grounded switched circuit.
Do not connect the device to a rheostat or dimmer circuit, even when using the rheostat or dimmer
channel solely for 0 % to 100 % switching.
Have a qualified electrician carry out the electric connection.
DMX-512 Connection
When applicable, connect an XLR cable to the female XLR output of a controller (not incl.) and the
other side to the male XLR input of the device. Multiple devices can be linked through serial linking.
The linking cable shall be a dual core, screened cable with XLR input and output connectors.
A DMX terminator is recommended for installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance or is
in an electrically noisy environment (e.g. discos). The terminator prevents corruption of the digital
control signal by electrical noise. The DMX terminator is simply an XLR plug with a 120 Ω resistor
between pins 2 and 3, which is then plugged into the XLR output socket of the last device in the chain.
