To enable independent operation of several Shadow projectors each must be
assigned a unique address code. This procedure calls for the presence of an autho-
rized technician.
Projectors are wired up to the controller and one to the next using two-core screened
cable and Cannon 5 pin XLR type plug/socket connectors.
To connect a DMX line, a terminating plug (
9
) with a 100 Ω resistor wired between
pins 2 and 3 must be fitted to the last projector connected in series; the plug is not
required when using an RS232/423(PMX) signal.
The wires must not come into contact with each other or with the metal casing
of the plug.
The casing of the plug/socket must be connected to the screen and to pin 1 of
the connectors.

The response of the iris to the move-
ment of the potentiometer is linear and
continuous through the full 0… 100%
range, so that the slider can be
stopped in any position to obtain the
desired aperture diameter.

In the 0% to 50% range of adjustment
the dimmer opens gradually to maxi-
mum aperture. Strobe effect is pro-
duced from 54.7% to 95% with fre-
quency increasing from 1 to 7 flash-
es/second. The aperture remains
fixed from 95% to 100% of the slider
range.
