Mounting points
: Overhead mounting requires extensive experience, including
amongst others calculating working load limits, a fine knowledge of the installation
material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all installation material and the
fixture. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself. Improper
installation can result in bodily injury.
Be sure to complete all rigging and installation procedures before connecting the main
power cord to the appropriate wall outlet.
Clamp Mounting:
The LED BEAM provides a unique mounting bracket assembly that
integrates the bottom of the base, the included “Omega Bracket,” and the safety cable
rigging point in one unit (see the illustration below). When mounting this fixture to truss
be sure to secure an appropriately rated clamp to the included omega bracket using a
M10 screw fitted through the center hole of the “omega bracket”. As an added safety
measure be sure to attached at least one properly rated safety cable to the fixture using
on of the safety cable rigging point integrated in the base assembly
Regardless of the rigging option you choose for your LED super beam, always be sure
to secure your fixture with a safety cable. The fixture provides a built-in rigging point for
a safety cable on the hanging bracket as illustrated above. Be sure to only use the
designated rigging point for the safety cable and never secure a safety cable to a
carrying handle.

6. DMX-512 control connections
Connect the provided XLR cable to the female 3-pin XLR output of your controller and
the other side to the male 3-pin XLR input of the moving head. You can chain multiple
Moving head together through serial linking. The cable needed should be two core,
screened cable with XLR input and output connectors. Please refer to the diagram
below.
DMX-512 connection with DMX terminator
CONTROLLER
For installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance or is in an electrically
noisy environment, such as in a discotheque, it is recommended to use a DMX
terminator. This helps in preventing corruption of the digital control signal by electrical
noise. The DMX terminator is simply an XLR plug with a 120 Ω resistor connected
between pins 2 and 3,which is then plugged into the output XLR socket of the last
fixture in the chain. Please see illustrations below.
