Regardless of the rigging option you choose for your
, always be
sure to secure your fixture with a safety cable. The fixture provides a built-in rigging
point for a safety cable on the hanging bracket as illustrated above. Be sure to only
use the designated rigging point for the safety cable and never secure a safety cable
to a carr ying handle.

Connect the provided XLR cable to the female 3-pin XLR output of your controller and
the other side to the male 3-pin XLR input of the moving head. You can chain multiple
Moving head together through serial linking. The cable needed should be two core,
screened cable with XLR input and output connectors. Please refer to the diagram

For installations where the DMX cable has to run a long
distance or is in an electrically noisy environment, such as
in a discotheque, it is recommended to use a DMX
terminator. This helps in preventing corruption of the
digital control signal by electrical noise. The DMX
terminator is simply an XLR plug with a 120 Ω resistor
connected between pins 2 and 3,which is then plugged
into the output XLR socket of the last fixture in the chain.
