When installing standard type C circuit breakers there will be no limitations due
to the fixture in-rush current. Due to the nominal current of the fixture, ensure
that no more than:
4 fixtures are connected through the same type C, 10A circuit breaker.
7 fixtures are connected through the same type C, 16A circuit breaker.
The fixture must be grounded/earthed and be able to be isolated from AC
power. The AC power supply must incorporate a fuse or circuit breaker for fault
protection.
After connecting the fixture to power, run the on-board test, using the
“
Mode
→
Mode = Demo
”
menu, to ensure that the fixture and each LED are
functioning correctly. See
“
Control menu
”
on page 13.
CAUTION:
Do not open the fixture to replace the supplied power cable, or
connect the fixture to an electrical dimmer system, as this can damage it.

Configuring the fixture
Set up the fixture using the control panel and LCD display at the base of the
fixture.
Navigate the menus and options using the arrow buttons and select items using
the Enter button. The options available are listed in “Control menu” on page 13.
After powering on, the display shows the currently selected operating mode
and other information.
The fixture is set by default to be controlled in DMX mode.
Master/Slave configuration
You can set a fixture to operate as master fixture to another fixture (which then
becomes a slave fixture), or an entire group of fixtures (which then becomes
slave fixtures). The assigned slave fixture(s) will mimic the settings of the
9
master fixture. Use the
“
Mode
→
AutoSlip/
AutoSkip/
Scene
”
menu to set your
fixture as master fixture, then other fixture set to DMX mode as slave fixture.
Setting a static color manually
The fixture can be configured to display a predefined and static color using the
“
Mode
→
Scene
”
menus (see
“
Control menu
”
on page 13).
There are 99 static color you can choose, it may suit your needs when you
without a DMX controller to do the color mixing.
Using stand-alone operation
Stand-alone operation is where the fixture is not connected to a control device,
but is preprogrammed with 3 modes (AutoSlip/AutoSkip/Demo), that play
continuously in a loop, the run speed of “AutoSlip” and “AutoSkip” are
adjustable.
To define a stand-alone program, use the
“
Mode
”
menus (see
“
Control
menu
”
on page 13).
8.
Connecting to a DMX control device
The fixture is controllable using a DMX control device and it can be connected
using a DMX cable.
If using a cabled DMX system, connect the DMX in cable (with male 3-pin XLR
plug) and out cable (with female 3-pin XLR plug) to the DMX data link.
Terminate the DMX out cable of the last fixture in the data link. For outdoor
installations, use only IP-rated XLR connectors suitable for outdoor use.
The DMX512 is widely used in intelligent lighting control,with a DMX 512
controller.connect several lights together,dmx in and dmx out, 3 pin XLR
connectors: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+)
