PLEASE NOTE! POI FIXTURES SHOULD BE PRE-SET WITH ANY CUSTOM PROGRAMMING
BEFORE INSTALLATION
.
ALTHOUGH MOST FUNCTIONS ARE POSSIBLE TO BE SET VIA RDM ONCE MOUNTED IN POSITION, IT IS EASIER
TO DO CONFIGURATION AND ANY TROUBLESHOOTING BEFORE MOUNTING IS COMPLETE.
UNPACKING
Unpack the device and inspect it to ensure that it has not been damaged during transport.
The G-7 Spot is shipped with:
• Two POI omega brackets suited for M-10 holes.
• Safety information leaflet.
APPLICATION CONSIDERATIONS
The fixture is IP66-rated and designed for both indoor and outdoor events. This means that it is protected from:
• Dust, to the degree that dust cannot enter the device in sufficient quantities, as to interfere with its opera-
tion.
• High pressure water jets from any direction.
When selecting a location for the device, ensure that:
• It is situated away from public thoroughfares and protected from contact with people.
• It is not immersed in water.
• It has adequate ventilation.
When using the fixture with a DMX controller, ensure that:
• According to RS485 standard, the DMX Out of the last fixture should be terminated with a 120 ohm resistor
between pin 2 and 3.
• If the resistor is not installed, make sure that the DMX Out is properly sealed by mounting the protection cap,
in accordance with the ingress protection (IP) requirements.
• A maximum of 32 fixtures can be connected to the same DMX link.
CONNECTING TEMPORARY POWER
Connect to AC power using the supplied 8mm cable (the larger of the two permanently wired cables). The fixture
must be grounded/earthed. The AC power supply must incorporate a fuse or circuit breaker for fault protection. For
temporary programming, a plug or terminals can be used.The power cable color coding is shownin fig. 9:
•
Connect the black wire to live
•
Connect the white wire to neutral
•
Connect the green/yellow wire to ground (earth)
The fixture must be grounded/
earthed and be able to be isolated
from AC power. The AC power
supply must incorporate a fuse or
curcuit breaker for fault protection.

CONFIGURATION
The G-7 Spot POI does not include a display, and is configured through RDM (Remote Device Management). See
"RDM" on page 29 for more information.
In G-7 Spot POI, the DMX address and DMX mode can only be set through RDM. When addressing through USB
powered DMX/ RDM devices, ensure DMX link is terminated, and keep the cable as short as possible.
DMX modes for POI are the same as the G-7 Spot standard. Visit www.sgmlight.com to see all DMX charts available
under the respective product, or upon request via [email protected].
PLEASE NOTE! REMOTE DEVICE MANAGEMENT (RDM) REQUIRES A CORRECT DMX CABLED INSTALLATION AND
TERMINATION. WHEN SETTING ADDRESSES THROUGH RDM AND USING USB DONGLES, DISABLE USB SELEC-
TIVE SUSPEND TO ENSURE A PROPER VOLTAGE TO THE DMX LINK. IF ANY LAG OR TROUBLE OCCURS WHEN
ADDRESSING, DECREASE THE CABLE LENGTH RANGE TO <12 M. AND ONLY ADDRESS ONE FIXTURE AT A TIME.
