There are 512 channels in a DMX-512 connection. Channels may be assigned in any manner. A fixture capable
of receiving DMX 512 will require one or a number of sequential channels. The user must assign a starting
address on the fixture that indicates the first channel reserved in the lighting console. There are many different
types of DMX controllable fixtures and they all may vary in the total number of channels required. Choosing a
start address should be planned in advance. Channels should never overlap. If they do, this will result in erratic
operation of the fixtures whose starting address is set incorrectly. You can however, control multiple fixtures
of the same type using the same starting address as long as the intended result is that of unison movement
or operation. In other words, the fixtures will be slaved together and all respond exactly the same.
DMX fixtures are designed to receive data through a DMX Chain. A DMX Chain connection is where the DMX
OUT of one fixture connects to the DMX IN of the next fixture. The order in which the fixtures are connected
is not important and has no effect on how a lihgting console communicates to each fixture. Use an order that
provides for the easiest and most direct cabling. Connect fixtures using shielded two conductor twisted pair
cable with three pin XLR male to female connectors. The shield connection is pin 1, while pin 2 is Data Negative
(S-) and pin 3 is Data positive (S+). Company NA carries 3-pin and 5-pin XLR DMX compliant cables.

To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear fixtures should be cleaned frequently. Usage and
environment are contributing factors in determining frequency. As a general rule, fixtures should be cleaned
at least once a month. Dust build up reduces light output performance and can cause overheating. This can
lead to reduced LED count life and increased mechanical wear. Be sure to power off fixture before conducting
maintenance.
Unplug fixture from power. Use a vacuum or air compressor and a soft brush to remove dust
collected on external vents and internal components. Clean all glass when the fixture is cold with a mild solution
of glass cleaner or Isopropyl Alcohol and a soft lint free cotton cloth or lens tissue. Apply solution to the cloth
or tissue and drag dirt and grime to the outside of the lens. Gently polish optical surfaces until they are free of
haze and lint.
The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out periodically to optimize
light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or
particularly dirty surrounding can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the unit’s optics. Clean with soft cloth
using normal glass cleaning fluid. - Always dry the parts carefully. – Clean the external optics at least every
30 days. Clean the internal optics at least every 60 / 90 days.

Returned merchandise must be sent prepaid and in the original packing, call tags will not be issued. Package
must be clearly labelled with a Return Merchandise Authorization Number (RMA #). Products returned without
an RMA # will be refused. Call Company NA and request RMA # prior to shipping the fixture. Be prepared to
provide the model number, serial number and a brief description of the cause for the return. Be sure to properly
pack fixture, any shipping damage resulting from inadequate packaging is the customer’s responsibility.
Company NA reserves the right to use its own discretion to repair or replace product(s). As a suggestion,
proper UPS packing or double-boxing is always a safe method to use.
