3) Press the button ENTER and set the follow-

ing parameters:

ƊRed :

Brightness of red

(0 – 255)

green:

Brightness of green (0 – 255)

blue :

Brightness of blue

(0 – 255)

white:

Brightness of white (0 – 255)

strob:

Flash frequency (0 – 20 Hz)
of the stroboscope

Time :

Length of scene (time),
100 = 60 seconds

Fade :

Crossfading time

4) The arrow

always precedes the current

selection or the value to be set. To set the
parameter selected: Press the button ENTER
and use the button UP or DOWN to change
the setting; then press the button MENU to
return to the parameter selection and to
change another parameter.

Notes

1. The length of a scene must at least be set to the

value

001

; otherwise, it is not possible to pro-

gram the subsequent scene.

2. To crossfade from one scene to the next, a cross-

fading time must be set for both scenes.

5) Once the first scene has been set, press the

button MENU repeatedly until the arrow
points to the number of scene (

ƊSC01

). Use

the button UP to select the second scene,
press the button ENTER, set the scene and
then repeat this procedure for all subsequent
scenes.

6) Once the final scene has been set, store the

sequence of scenes: Immediately after set-
ting a parameter, keep the button ENTER
pressed for 5 seconds. When the button is
released, the number of the sequence
(

Pro01

…

Pro10

) will appear on the dis-

play; if not, the button ENTER has not been
pressed long enough.

Notes

1. A sequence of scenes must have been completely

programmed before the floodlight is disconnected
from the power supply. After the floodlight has been
switched on again, the sequence of scenes cannot
be changed anymore; it can only be programmed
again. To overwrite a sequence of scenes, it is not
necessary to delete the previously programmed
scenes first.

2. When the sequence of scenes is not called up by

means of the control buttons (4) [chapter 7.3.] but via
a DMX light controller, DMX channel 2 will define the
length of a scene and DMX channel 3 will define the
crossfading time (chapter 10.1.7). Channel 2 must be
set to a DMX value > 0; otherwise, the floodlight will
remain dark.

7.5 Synchronous control of multiple

floodlights (master / slave mode)

Multiple ODW-2410RGBW can be intercon-
nected. The master unit will then synchronously
control all slave units.

1) Use the inline jack (9) of the cable DMX OUT

and the plug (6) of the cable DMX IN to con-
nect the floodlights in a chain. Please refer
to chapter 8.1, “DMX connection”, skipping
step 1.

2) The floodlight is factory-set to act as a slave

unit in master

slave mode. Thus, only the

floodlight that is to control the slave units
must be defined as a master unit.

Call up the menu item

RUN

to change the

setting. The display will show the following:

DMX

= master unit

ƊSlave

= slave unit

An arrow will point to the current setting. If

required, use the button UP or DOWN to
change the setting.

3) Set the master unit to the operation mode

desired (

chapters 7.1 – 7.3).

7.5.1 Copying sequences of scenes

The programmed sequences of scenes of a unit
(chapter 7.4.) can be copied to other units. This
is useful when multiple units are to run inde-
pendently with the same sequences of scenes.
For synchronous operation on interconnected
units (chapter 7.5), it is not necessary to copy the
sequences of scenes.

Define the unit whose sequences of scenes are
to be copied as a master unit and connect it to
the other units (

chapter 7.5); set up the other

units as slave units:

1) At the slave units that are to adopt all

sequences of scenes from the master unit,
call up the menu item

RUN

and set the option

ƊSlave

2) At the master unit, call up the menu item

SET

and the submenu item

UPLD

Password:

will appear on the display.

3) Press the following buttons:

UP, DOWN, UP, DOWN.
For each press of a button, an asterisk

will

appear on the display.

4) Use the button ENTER to start copying. Dur-

ing the copy process, the slave units will light
up in yellow; they will light up in red in case of
an error; and they will light up in green once
the copy process has been successfully com-
pleted.

Note: The sequences of scenes copied will only be
available after a different sequence of scenes has been
selected or after the power supply has been interrupted.

8 Operation with

a DMX Controller

DMX (Digital Multiplex) means digital control of
multiple DMX units via a common control line.
For operation by means of a DMX light controller
(e. g. DMX-1440 or DMX-510USB from “img
Stage Line”), the floodlight is equipped with 11
DMX control channels. However, it can also be
controlled by 10, 6, 5, 4 or 3 channels, if
required. The functions of the channels and the
corresponding DMX values can be found in
chapter 10.1.

8.1 DMX connection

For DMX connection, 3-pole XLR connections
with the following pin configuration are available:

pin 1 = ground, 2 = DMX−, 3 = DMX+

For the connection, special cables for DMX sig-
nal transmission (e. g. cables of the CDMXN
series from “img Stage Line”) should be used.
For cable lengths exceeding 150 m and for the
control of more than 32 units via a single DMX
output, the insertion of a DMX level matching
amplifier (e. g. SR-103DMX from “img Stage
Line”) is recommended.

1) Connect the plug (6) of the cable DMX IN to

the inline jack of the cable supplied that is fit-
ted with the XLR plug (10), and then use the
cap nut to screw the plug-in connection
together. Using an extension cable, connect
the XLR plug to the DMX output of the light

controller or, if additional DMX-controlled
units are used, to the DMX output of another
DMX-controlled unit.

2) If additional floodlights ODW-2410RGBW are

used, use the inline jack (9) of the cable DMX
OUT to connect the first floodlight to the plug
(6) of the cable DMX IN of the second flood-
light. Proceed in the same way to connect the
second floodlight to the third one etc. until all
floodlights are connected in a chain.

If the DMX connection cables between the

floodlights are too short, use suitable extension
cables, e. g. ODP-34DMX (length: 2 m) or
ODP-34DMX /10 (length: 10 m).
To connect other DMX-controlled units, use
the adapter cable fitted with the XLR inline
jack.

3) To prevent interference in signal transmis-

sion: For long cables or for a great number of
units connected in series, terminate the DMX
output of the last DMX unit in the chain with a
120 Ω resistor (> 0.3 W): Connect an appro-
priate terminating plug (e. g. DLT-123 from
“img Stage Line”) to the XLR inline jack of the
supplied adapter cable. For outdoor installa-
tion, protect the XLR inline jack and the ter-
minating plug against humidity.

8.2 Setting the DMX operation mode

To operate the ODW-2410RGBW by means of a
light controller, set the DMX start address
(

chapter 8.3) and the DMX operation mode.

The DMX operation mode selected will deter-
mine the number of the DMX channels required
(3 – 11 channels). Please refer to chapter 10.1
for the functions that can be controlled with the
respective DMX operation modes, and then,
based on this information or based on the num-
ber of the control channels available at the light
controller, select the DMX operation mode:

1) Call up the menu item

Personality

2) The following settings are available:

ƊStage

11 channels

/10 channels without

subaddressing
(

chapter 10.1.7)
