The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by a skilled person once a year.
Procedure:
The device should be installed outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated.
IMPORTANT! OVERHEAD RIGGING REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE, including (but not limited to) calculating working load limits,
installation material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all installation material and the device. If you lack these qualifications, do not
attempt the installation yourself, but instead use a professional structural rigger. Improper installation can result in bodily injury and or damage
to property.
The device has to be installed out of the reach of people.
If the device shall be lowered from the ceiling or high joists, professional trussing systems have to be used. The device must never be fixed
swinging freely in the room.
Caution:
Devices in hanging installations may cause severe injuries when crashing down! If you have doubts concerning the safety of a
possible installation, do NOT install the device!
Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10 times the device's weight.
DANGER OF FIRE
!
When installing the device, make sure there is no highly-inflammabl
e
material (decoration articles, etc.)
within a distance of min. 0.5 m
.
Mount the device to your trussing system using an appropriate clamp.
For overhead use, always install a safety-rope that can hold at least 12 times the weight of the fixture. You must only use safety-ropes with
quick link with screw cap. Pull the safety-rope through the attachment eyelet and over the trussing system or a safe fixation spot. Insert the end
in the quick link and tighten the safety screw.
The maximum drop distance must never exceed 20 cm.
A safety rope which already hold the strain of a crash or which is defective must not be used again.
Adjust the desired inclination-angle via the mounting-bracket and tighten the fixation screws.
Connect the fixture to the mains with the power-plug.
The occupation of the connection-cables is as follows:
The earth has to be connected!
If the device will be directly connected with the local power supply network, a disconnection switch with a minimum opening of 3 mm at every
pole has to be included in the permanent electrical installation.
Lighting effects must not be connected to dimming-packs.
DANGER TO LIFE!
Before taking into operation for the first time, the installation has to be approved by an expert!
OPERATION
Initialization

Roll the rolling wheel till it displays desired address number or menu options. Press the rolling wheel to enter settings of the desired number or
option. When press one more time after pressing to enter, display will go to another menu setting.
Addressing
The Control Board allows you to assign the DMX fixture address, which is defined as the first channel from which the device will respond to the
controller.
For address setting, press the rolling wheel and turn it, clock-wise to increase value, anti to decrease. Press again to confirm.
Note
: Overlapped address codes for different fixtures are not suggested. Exception, see
