AC Power
This fixture accepts an input of 100~240 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. Also
make sure that the fixtures you are plugging into the DMX-4 LED match the input voltage.
Input voltage equals output voltage.
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 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.
Always connect the fixture to a circuit with a suitable electrical ground.
Notes on
“Switch” Operation
Dimmer/switch packs are primarily intended for lamp-based PAR cans. Connecting a fixture
equipped with an electronic (switching) power supply to a dimmer/pack switch may damage the
fixture or make it work erratically.
The improved DMX-4 LED
’s design now allows you to switch on and off loads equipped with
electronic power supplies, such as LED-based luminaries or laser fixtures. However, the DMX-4
LED
must be in “switch” mode before connecting this type of loads to it. Please see the
instructions on how to set the DMX-4 LED in switch mode below.
Always make sure that the DMX-4 LED is in switch mode before connecting a load
equipped with an electronic power supply to it. Doing otherwise could damage the load.
Changing between “Dimmer” and “Switch”
The DMX-4 LED has two different methods for controlling the output of the four (4) channels. This
must be set by the user via the control panel.
Please see the steps below for this procedure.
1. Unplug any units from the four output channels.
2. Plug the DMX-4 LED into power.
3. Press <MODE> until

6. Continue to set this for each of the 4 channels, using the process detailed in the steps
above, until complete.
