Connect the Power Supply to AC power
Plug the AC cord into a non-dimmed power circuit. The power supply
automatically accommodates 100 - 132 VAC (50/60 Hz) or 170 - 240 VAC (50/60
Hz).
Power at the Coloram II Power Supply is indicated by the red display which can
be viewed from the stage. Power is also indicated on the bottom of each color
changer by a red or yellow LED.
The connected color changers will automatically "check in" with the power supply
and "initialize" the gelstring installed by doing the following actions:
1.
Moving the gelstring toward the last frame, in search of the long foil tag.
2.
Turning around at the long foil tag and then searching for the short foil tag
at the beginning of the gelstring.
3.
Stopping at the short foil tag and staying there if no DMX signal is present
or going to it's commanded position if DMX signal is present.
Note: It may take up to 30 seconds before all color changers start to initialize.
Upon power up, the power supply will scroll a short message which includes the
software version installed in it.The power supply will then initiate a "roll call"
which tells the color changers to "check in" and initialize the gel string.
Caution: Do not power the power supply from a dimmer. Severe damage
will result and is not covered by product warranty.
4.
Set the Power Supply/Color Changer Channels
Each color changer is assigned a DMX address to which it will respond. Valid
DMX addresses are 001 - 512.
First, set the first channel for the block of DMX channels selected for the power
supply. Then, set the color changer for the first, second, etc channel of that
block of channels.
For example, if you want a color changer to respond to DMX channel 105, first
set the power supply channel block to start on channel 105 and then set the color
changer to 1 which is the first channel in the block of power supply channels -
channel 105.
The block of channels varies with the power supply model. For the 24-way power
supply, the block is 48 channels. For the 12-way, it is 24 channels and for the 6-
way, it is 12 channels.
Set the power supply starting DMX channel by using the SETUP menu. If
talkback is enabled on the power supply, the starting power supply channels are
limited to 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, etc.
