Configuring the device

The G-Spot Turbo can be set up by using the control panel in the base 

of the fixture or through RDM. After powering on, the G-Spot Turbo boots 

and  resets. The  current  DMX  start  address  and  any  status  messages 

will be displayed thereafter. Navigate the menus and options using the 

arrows and select items using the OK button. 

The complete list of the menu and all commands available are listed in 

“Control Menu” on page 13.

Display panel (A)

The display shows the current status and menu of the fixture and can be 

used to configure individual fixture settings, check the fixture’s wireless 

status, firmware version, and see error messages. In the settings, the 

display can be set to turn off if desired. 

Using the O-ring buttons (B) 

 

• 

Press the ‘OK’ button to access the menu or make a selection

• 

Press the arrow buttons to scroll up and down in the menus

• 

Press the ‘ESC’ button to take a step back in the menu

• 

Press the ‘UP’ and ‘DOWN’ arrows simultaneously to flip the 

display upside-down

• 

Press ESC + OK simultaneously to confirm RESET options

DMX Mode (C) 

 

Display the current DMX mode within 4 options: Standard, Extended, Standard Compatible and Extended Compatible.

The Standard and Extended Compatible are used when it's intended to get the same features/colors as the regular G-Spot.  

DMX Start Address (D) 

 

Display the current DMX address. The DMX address will flash if no data input. Select DMX address using the arrow buttons.

The DMX start address is the first channel used to receive instructions from the controller. For independent control, each fixture must 

be assigned its own control channels. If you give two fixtures the same address, they will behave identically.  Address sharing can be 

useful for diagnostic purposes and symmetrical control.

The G-Spot Turbo can operate on any 200–240 V, 50/60 Hz AC mains power supply. The maximum power consumption is 1150W.
Connect the fixture to power using a cable with a Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 connector (supplied with the fixture). Connect both DMX 

in and DMX out cables in order to maintain the fixture's IP65. 
For a temporary installation, the mains cable must be fitted with a grounded connector intended for exterior use.

Please note:

 Both DMX in and DMX out must be connected in order to maintain the IP65-rating.

• 

Connect the black wire to live

• 

Connect the white wire to neutral

• 

Connect the green 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 

circuit breaker for fault protection.
For assistance with alternative configurations, contact your SGM representative.
After connecting the G-Spot Turbo to power, run the on-board test by pressing OK → TEST →AUTOMATED TEST in the menu, to  

ensure that the fixture and each LED are functioning correctly. Please see “Control menu” on page 14

CAUTION:  Do  not  open  the  fixture  to  replace  the  supplied  power  cable,  or  connect  the  fixture  to  an  electrical  dimmer 

system, as this can damage it.

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.
