POWERING UP
• Use only Apollo cable or other approved cable. Approved cable should have two
conductors of 14 AWG wire for power and two shielded and twisted conductors
of 22 AWG wire for data.
Pin "OUT" for the 4-pin connector:
Pin 1 = 24 volts DC Ground (-)
Pin 2 = DMX data (-)
Pin 3 = DMX data (+)
Pin 4 = 24 volts DC (+)
• Insert a 4-pin XLR connector into the plug on the Smart Color
®
Pro marked
“IN”. Additional Smart Color
®
Pros, Smart Color

or Smart Move
®
products can
be daisy chained together using the “OUT” plug.
• Apply power and DMX signal to the Smart Color
®
Pro. A short homing sequence
will occur, running the gel string from end to end. The fan will run at full speed
during homing.
• The Smart Color
®
Pro has finished homing when frame #1 of the gel string is
parked in the aperture.
• If a valid DMX signal is present, the LED display will show the DMX address at
a steady brightness. If DMX is not present, the LED display will flash.
Do not apply power to a lighting
fixture without first powering up
the Smart Color
®
Pro. Heat from
the lighting fixture will cause damage
to the Smart Color
®
Pro and the gel strings.
