AC Power:
This fixture runs on 110~220 VAC, 50/60 Hz. Before powering on the unit, make sure the line voltage to which
you are connecting it is within the range of accepted voltages.
Always connect the fixture to a switched circuit. Never connect the fixture to a rheostat (variable
resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel is used only as a 0 to 100% switch.
To determine the power requirements for a particular fixture, see the label affixed to the back plate of the
fixture or refer to the fixture’s specifications chart. A fixture’s listed current rating indicates its average
current draw under normal conditions.
Always connect the fixture to a circuit with a suitable electrical ground.
To connect the power cord to the LGMEGAx plug the female side of the power cord into the power cord input which is
on the rear of the unit. Then plug the male side of the power cord to an electric outlet. When linking LGMEGAx units to
each other connect the power output on the first unit to power input on the next unit.
The AC power cords supplied purposefully have 2 blades and one grounding prong. If your outlet is not equipped to
handle this type of plug, do not attempt to forcefully plug this AC power cord into the outlet, and do not alter the plug so
that it can fit in the outlet. The only course of action you can take is to find another outlet which is properly equipped to
handle a grounded plug or have an electrician upgrade your electrical outlet. Be sure that the plug is well connected so
that it does not disconnect in the middle of usage. If at any point in time the supplied AC power cord is punctured or
damaged replace it with a new power cord from a local electrician.
AC Power Linking:
This fixture comes equipped with an AC Input (10) and AC Output (11) allowing you to link multiple fixtures together.
The maximum quantity of fixtures that may be linked is 30.
Fixture Linking via XLR Input / Output:
You will need a serial data link to run light shows of one or more fixtures using a DMX controller or to run
synchronized shows on two or more fixtures set to a master/slave operating mode. The combined number of
channels required by all the fixtures on a serial data link determines the number of fixtures the data link can
support.
Fixtures on a serial data link must be daisy chained in one single line. To comply with the EIA-485 standard,
no more than 32 fixtures should be connected on one data link. Connecting more than 32 fixtures on one
serial data link without the use of a DMX optically-isolated splitter may result in deterioration of the digital
DMX signal.
Maximum recommended serial data link distance: 500 m (1640 ft)
Maximum recommended number of fixtures on a serial data link: 32
