Listed below are a few common problems the user may encounter,
with solutions.
Unit not responding to DMX:
1. Check that the DMX cables are connected properly and are
wired correctly (pin 3 is “hot”; on some other DMX devices
pin 2 may be ‘hot’). Also, check that all cables are connected
to the right connectors; it does matter which way the inputs
and outputs are connected.
Unit does not respond to sound:
1. Quiet or high pitched sounds will not activate the unit.
2. Make sure that Sound Active mode is activated.
Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the internal and exter-
nal optical lenses must be carried out periodically to optimize light
output.
1. Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the
outside casing.
2. Clean the external optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth
every 20 days.
3. Always be sure to dry all parts completely before plugging
the unit back in.
Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture
operates (i.e. smoke, fog residue, dust, dew).
Disconnect the unit from its power source. Remove the power cord
from the unit. Once the cord has been removed, you will find that the
fuse holder is located inside the power socket. Insert a flat-head screw
driver into the power socket and gently pry out the fuse holder. Remove
the bad fuse and replace with a new one. The fuse holder also has a
holder for a spare fuse.
With this feature you can connect the fixtures to one another
using the IEC input and output sockets. The quantity that can be
connected is 24 fixtures maximum. After 24 fixtures you will need
to use a new power outlet. They must be the same fixtures. DO
NOT mix fixtures.

Flat Par Tri7X Installation
The Flat Par Tri7X is fully operational in three different mounting
positions, hanging upside-down from a ceiling, hanging sideways on
trussing, or set on a flat level surface. The unit should be mounted
using a mounting clamp (not provided), affixing it to the mounting
bracket that is provided with the unit. Always ensure that the unit is
firmly fixed to avoid vibration and slipping while operating. Always
ensure that the structure to which you are attaching the unit is secure
and is able to support a weight of 10 times the unit’s weight. Also,
always use a safety cable that can hold 12 times the weight of the
unit when installing the fixture.
The equipment must be installed by a professional, and it must be
installed in a place where it is out of the reach of people’s grasp.
