kept at least 0.5m away from any flammable materials (decoration etc.). Always use and
install the supplied safety cable as a safety measure to prevent accidental damage and/or
injury in the event the clamp fails.
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.
7. UNDERSTANDING DMX
DMX-512:
DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal protocol used by most
lighting and controller manufactures as a form of communication between intelligent
fixtures and controllers. DMX allows all makes and models of different manufactures to
be linked together and operate from a single controller. This is possible as long as all
the fixtures and the controller are DMX compliant. A DMX controller sends the DMX data
instructions to the fixture allowing the user to control the different aspects of an intelligent
light. DMX data is sent out as serial data that travels from fixture to fixture via data “IN” and
data “OUT” XLR terminals located on the fixtures (most controllers will only have output
jacks).
DMX Linking:
To ensure proper DMX data transmission, always use proper DMX
cables and a terminator. When using several DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable
path possible. Never split a DMX line with a “Y” style connector. The order in which the
fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the DMX addressing. For example;
a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in the DMX chain, at the
beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle. The DMX controller knows to send data
assigned to address 1 to that fixture no matter where it is located in the DMX chain. The
Par can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The Par is a 9-channel DMX fixture. The DMX
address is set electronically using the controls on the LED menu.
Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX and Master/Slave
Operation):
Your fixture and your DMX controller require a standard 3-pin or 5-pin XLR
connector for data input and data output (the figure on the next page is of a 3-Pin XLR
connector). If you are making your own cables, be sure to use two conductor shielded
digital DMX cable rated at 120 ohms; this cable is designed for DMX transmission and
may be purchased from your Elation dealer or at most professional lighting retailers. Your
cables should be made with a male and female XLR connector on either end of the cable.
Also, remember that a DMX line must be daisy chained and cannot be split, unless using
an approved DMX splitter .
Be sure to follow the above figure when making your own cables. Do not use the ground
lug on the XLR connector. Do not connect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or
allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding the
shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behavior.
