CONNECTING POWER
The power cable color coding is given in figure 6:
• Connect the black wire to live
• Connect the white wire to neutral (or phase 2 on 208V
supplies)
• Connect the green/yellow wire to ground (earth)
For a temporary outdoor installation the mains cable must be fitted with a grounded connector intended for exterior
use.
For permanent installations, a qualified electrician must wire the mains cable directly to a suitable branch circuit and
as per local code. The junction’s ingress protection (IP) rating must be suitable for the location. Always use a junction
box with a proper IP class suitable for the environment.
After connecting the fixture to power, run the on-board test by selecting the option “TEST→ SELFTEST” in the menu,
to ensure that the fixture and each LED are functioning correctly. (POI versions are tested through RDM.)
PLEASE NOTE! THE PROTECTIVE CAPS MUST BE SECURELY MOUNTED ON ANY UNUSED CONNECTORS, IN OR-
DER TO MAINTAIN INGRESS PROTECTION (IP RATING).
CAUTION!
DO NOT CONNECT THE FIXTURE TO AN ELECTRICAL DIMMER SYSTEM, AS DOING SO MAY
CAUSE DAMAGE
CONNECTING DATA
The fixture is controllable using a DMX control device, and it can be connected using either a DMX cable, or via the
fixture’s built-in CRMX wireless receiver system.
When using a cabled DMX system, connect the DMX-In cable to the input connector and DMX-Out cable to the out-
put, both on the rear of the fixture’s base (chassis mounted male and female 5-pin XLR plugs). For outdoor installa-
tions, use only IP-rated XLR connectors suitable for outdoor use. Terminate the DMX out cable of the last fixture in the
data link with a 120 ohm DMX termination.
Note that SGM fixtures provide a passive DMX Thru signal as DMX Out, instead of an active output signal.
PLEASE NOTE! FOR POI VERSIONS, PLEASE REFER TO “INSTALLATION POI FIXTURE”
CONNECTING A WIRELESS TRANSMITTER
The fixture is designed to look for wireless transmitters in ‘connect’ state when this option is not yet enabled. The fix-
ture comes tested for wireless functionality from the factory, therefore the beginning of the pairing process is discon-
nect from the factory wireless DMX transceiver.
To connect the fixture to a wireless transmitter:
1. Log off the currently paired wireless transmitter. Go to SETTINGS → WIRELESS DMX → LOG OFF in the menu.
Fixture confirms logged off.
2. Press the connect button on the wireless transmitter.
3. Confirm that the fixture has paired with the wireless transmitter.
PLEASE NOTE! FOR POI VERSIONS, REFER TO “"WIRELESS DATA CONNECTION" ON PAGE 17” .
SIGNAL PRIORITY
The fixture can be paired to an active wireless transmitter while also being connected to a cabled DMX signal. By de-
fault, the fixture will prioritize cabled DMX over wireless DMX. Through the Settings menu in the display or RDM, this
can be changed so that the fixture will prioritize the wireless DMX signal over cabled DMX.
The active input type is displayed under the wireless signal strength indicator. The signal strength can be also checked
via RDM data by using an external RDM device.
PLEASE NOTE! IN POI VERSION WITH WIRELESS, THE DMX SIGNAL STRENGTH IS CHECKED THROUGH RDM.
