Applications
The light effect panel RGBL-412DMX serves for
effect illumination (e. g. for radiating coloured light
or for creating running light and stroboscope
effects) and is suitable for application on stage, in
discotheques etc. As a light source, 16 extra bright
RGBW LEDs are used.
The light effect panel is designed for control via
a DMX light controller (4, 6, 10, 18, 32 or 34 DMX
control channels at option). However, it can also be
operated without controller, either as a single unit
or interconnected with several RGBL-412DMX
units in the master-slave mode.

Mounting
Always place the unit so that a sufficient air ventila-
tion is ensured during operation. The air vents at
the housing must never be covered.
If a surface is illuminated, the distance to the sur-
face should be 50 cm as a minimum.
1. The light effect panel can be screwed to a suit-
able place via its mounting support (5), e. g. with
a stable mounting screw or a support for lighting
units (C hook) to a cross bar.
2. As an alternative, the unit can also be mounted
to a wall or ceiling via the two mounting brack-
ets (2) or be set up on the floor. Fix the brackets
with a knurled screw (1) on the left and on the
right of the unit.
To align the unit, release the two locking screws
(1 or 4). Adjust the desired inclination of the unit
and retighten the screws.

Setting into Operation
Connect the supplied mains cable to the mains jack
(12) first and then to a socket (230 V~
/
50 Hz).
Thus, the unit is switched on. The display (9) will
show the last adjustment (fig. 2) for a few seconds
before it is extinguished.
Note: The unit has an overheating protection. Thus, it is
switched off in case of excessive temperatures and
switched on again automatically after cooling-down.

Operation
The operating mode and the different functions are
selected via a menu (fig. 2) with the buttons MENU/
ESC, UP, DOWN and ENTER (8). For operation via
a DMX light controller see chapter 6.6.
6.1 Operation via the menu
1) Press the button MENU/ESC repeatedly until
the indication on the display does not change
any more. Thus, the highest menu level is
reached (
fig. 2 on the very left).
2) Select the desired menu item with the button UP
or DOWN.
3) Press the button ENTER. The display now
shows the present adjustment of the selected
menu item.
4) Change the adjustment with the button UP or
DOWN.
5) When submenu items are available, they can be
activated with the button ENTER and their
adjustments can be changed with the button UP
or DOWN.
6) To memorize an adjustment, press the button
ENTER.
WARNING Never look directly into the light
source for a longer time, this may
cause eye damage.
Please note that fast changes in light-
ing may trigger epileptic seizures with
photosensitive persons or persons
with epilepsy!
WARNING The light effect panel must be
mounted in a safe and expert way. If
it is installed at a place where people
may walk or sit under it, it must addi-
tionally be secured [e. g. by a safety
rope; lead the safety rope through
the safety lug (3) and fix it so that the
maximum falling distance of the unit
would not exceed 20 cm].
If the unit is to be put out of operation
definitively, take it to a local recycling plant
for a disposal which is not harmful to the
environment.
