DMX CONTROL CONNECTION:
Connection between controller and projector and between one projector and another must be made with a twin-screened cable, with each
wire having at least a 0.5mm in diameter. Connection to and from the projector is via cannon 5 pin (which are included with the projector)
or 5 pin XLR plugs and sockets. The XLR's are connected as shown in the figure above.
Note: care should be taken to ensure that none of the pins touch the metallic body of the plug or each other. XLR plugs and sockets mustn’t
be connected in any way other than mentioned in the above figure. The projector accepts digital control signals in protocol DMX512
(1990).
Connect the controller’s DMX output to the first fixture’s DMX input, and connect the first fixture’s DMX output to the second fixture’s
DMX input and connect the rest fixtures in the same way. Eventually connect the last fixture’s DMX output to a DMX terminator as shown
in the figure below.
●
DMX TERMINATOR
In the Controller mode, at the last fixture in the chain, the DMX output has to be connected with a DMX terminator. This prevents electrical
noise from disturbing and corrupting the DMX control signals.
The DMX terminator is simply an XLR connector with a 120
(ohm) resistor connected across pins 2 and 3, which is then plugged into
the output socket on the last projector in the chain. The connections are illustrated below.

ALIGNMENT/INSTALLATION/REPLACEMENT OF A LAMP
Before installation/replacement/alignment of a lamp, disconnect the unit from the power and let it cool first.
Lock Tilt in the figure below and open the lamp cover after its 4 screws are loosened.
After removal of the lamp cover, take out the lamp while the 2 screws at both ends of the lamp are loosened.
Insert a new lamp. Note: while placing a new lamp, do not touch the burner of the lamp with bare hands, otherwise the light output will be
compromised.
Fasten the 4 fast-fit screws after the lamp cover is on
Important: The unit uses high voltage discharge lamp with external igniter(
). While using the lamp, please carefully read
