The P-6 is controllable using a DMX control device, and it can be connected using either a DMX cable or via the fixture’s
built-in LumenRadio CRMX wireless receiver system.
If using a cabled DMX system, connect the DMX IN cable to the input connector and DMX OUT cable to the output. Both connectors
are placed on the rear of the fixture’s base (chassis mounted male 5-pin XLR connectors).
For outdoor events, use at least IP65-rated XLR connectors. If using a wireless DMX system, remember to use the protective caps
in any unused DMX connector in order to maintain the fixture’s IP-rating.
Connecting to a DMX control device
Configuring the device
The P-6 can be set up by using the control panel and OLED multi-line display at the top of the fixture’s head or through RDM.
The OLED display is the human interface of the fixture, as it displays the current status and menu of the fixture. The display panel
can be used to configure individual fixture settings, check the fixture’s wireless status, confirm the firmware version, and read error
messages.
The complete list of the menu and all commands available are listed in “Control Menu” on page 12.
Before turning on the P-6, make sure the Neutrik TRUE1 power in cable is properly connected. To turn off the device, simply
disconnect the Neutrik TRUE1 power in cable. When the fixture is powered on, it boots and resets before displaying the currently
selected operating mode and the DMX start address. Navigate through the menus and options using the arrow buttons, and select
items using the ENTER button.
