Installation Instructions - Arena Series
WARNING
NEVER connect the bare or green insulation ground wire to the black (HOT) current-carrying or white (NEUTRAL)
supply wire, as this could energize the metal housing and create the risk of electrical shock. FAILURE TO FOLLOW
THIS WARNING MAY LEAD TO DEATH, SEVERE INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
WARNING
Do not damage or cut the wire insulation (covering) during installation. Do not permit wires to contact any surface
having a sharp edge, as this may damage the wire insulation and create the risk of electrical shock. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW THIS WARNING MAY LEAD TO DEATH, SEVERE INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
Control Wiring
WARNING
Always turn power to Luminaire OFF before performing any work on control wiring. Turn transmitters off before
working on main control lines. Performing any work on control connections while Luminaires are receiving the signal
may result in transient or fluttering control signals which can cause damage to the luminaire. FAILURE TO FOLLOW
THIS WARNING MAY LEAD TO LUMINAIRE INTERNAL DAMAGE AND FAILURE.
Control Standards
All control work shall conform to ANSI E1.11 – 2008 (r2013), USITT DMX512-A, Asynchronous Serial Digital Data Transmission
Standard for Controlling Lighting Equipment and Accessories. At a minimum, DMX cable shall be 1-pair (24AWG, 7x32
Stranding) Twisted (minimum of 4.8 twists/foot), Shielded (minimum of 100 ohms impedance) and <25pF/ft. Capacitance.
WARNING
Use caution when connecting any 24AWG wires as they are more prone to breaking. 24 AWG may be used in
terminal blocks. If wire will be connected with wire nut, wago connector, or other mechanical splices, use 22AWG
wire.

LANDBURST CONTROLSe:
Plug in the control lines via the 3-pin XLR whips provided with the luminaire. Use the male
XLR as the DMX input and the female as the DMX output to reduce the risk of injury and poor connection. Use an RDM
controller to set the DMX start channel(s) of the fixture.
