Pixel Bar 12 MKII 

Maintenance 

The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are to be 
inspected by an expert after every year in the course of an acceptance test.  
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are to be 
inspected by a skilled person once a year. 
 
The following points have to be considered during the inspection:  
01)

 

All screws used for installing the device or parts of the device have to be tightly connected and must 
not be corroded. 

02)

 

There may not be any deformations on housings, fixations and installation spots. 

03)

 

Mechanically moving parts like axles, eyes and others may not show any traces of wearing. 

04)

 

The electric power supply cables must not show any damages or material fatigue. 

 
The Showtec Pixel Bar 12 MKII requires almost no maintenance. However, you should keep the unit clean. 
Otherwise, the fixture’s light-output will be significantly reduced. Disconnect the mains power supply and 
then wipe the cover with a damp cloth. Wipe the front glass panel clean with glass cleaner and a soft 
cloth. Do not use alcohol or solvents. The front glass panel will require weekly cleaning, as smoke-fluid 
tends to build up residues, reducing the light-output very quickly. Do not immerse in liquid. 
Keep connections clean. Disconnect electric power, and then wipe the DMX and audio connections 
with a damp cloth. Make sure connections are thoroughly dry before linking equipment or supplying 
electric power. 
 

Replacing a Fuse 

Power surges, short-circuit or inappropriate electrical power supply may cause a fuse to burn out. If the 
fuse burns out, the product will not function whatsoever. If this happens, 

follow the directions below:

 

01)

 

Unplug the unit from electric power source

02)

 

Insert a flat-head screwdriver into a slot in the fuse cover. 

Gently pry up the fuse cover. The fuse will 

come out.

 

03)

 

Remove the used fuse. If brown or unclear, it is burned out

04)

 

Insert the replacement fuse into the holder where the old fuse was. Reinsert the fuse cover. Be sure to 

use a fuse of the same type and specification. See the product specification label for details. 

 

Troubleshooting 

 

No Light 

This troubleshooting guide is meant to help solve simple problems.  
If a problem occurs, follow the steps below in sequence until a solution is found. Once the unit operates 
properly, do not carry out the following steps. 
If the light effect does not operate properly, refer servicing to a technician. 
Suspect three potential problem areas as the power supply, the LEDs, the fuse. 
01)

 

Power supply. Check that the unit is plugged into an appropriate power supply. 

02)

 

The LEDs. Return the 

Pixel Bar 12 MKII 

to your Showtec dealer. 

03)

 

The fuse. Replace the fuse. See page 26 for replacing the fuse. 

04)

 

If all of the above appears to be in order, switch the unit on again. 

05)

 

If you are unable to determine the cause of the problem, do not open the 

Pixel Bar 12 MKII

, as this 

may damage the unit and the warranty will become void. 

06)

 

Return the device to your Showtec dealer. 

 

No Response to DMX 

Suspect the DMX cable or connectors, a controller malfunction, a light effect DMX card malfunction. 
01)

 

Check the DMX setting. Make sure that DMX addresses are correct. 

02)

 

Check the DMX cable: Unplug the unit; change the DMX cable; then reconnect to electrical power. 
Try your DMX control again. 

03)

 

Determine whether the controller or light effect is to blame. Does the controller operate properly with 
other DMX products? If not, take the controller in for repair. If it does, take the DMX cable and the 
light effect to a qualified technician.
