The Solaris LED SoLED W840 white LED strobe offers the same look and feel as xenon strobes at a fraction of 

the power consumption.  Using high-intensity Cree

®

 LEDs, the SoLED provides ultra-bright whites with 92,000 

lumen peak output.  Compact and lightweight, the SoLED is very portable and hides well in any application. 

 

  Ultra-bright – 840 Watts of brilliant white output, 92,000lm peak output 

  Compact and lightweight – Fits almost anywhere 

  Easy to use – Same control modes and personalities as other popular strobes 

  DMX512 with RDM – Easy to control plus continual operational feedback 

  LED design – Longer life than xenon lamps for reliability and long-term cost savings 

  Built-in yoke – Application and mounting flexibility

Upon receipt of the fixture, carefully unpack the carton and check the contents to ensure that all parts are 

present and in good condition.  Notify the shipper immediately and retain packing material for inspection if any 

parts appear to be damaged from shipping or if the carton itself shows signs of mishandling.  Save the carton 

and all packing materials. In the event that a fixture must be returned to the factory, it is important that the fixture 

be returned in the original factory box and packing.

EQUIREMENTS

 

 

Before powering the unit, make sure the line voltage is within the range of accepted voltages.  This fixture 

accommodates 100-240VAC, 50/60Hz. All fixtures must be powered directly from a switched circuit and cannot 

be operated with a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel is used 

solely as a 0-100% switch.

 

 

When powered up, SoLED performs a preprogrammed internal test.  On initial power-up the factory default DMX 

address appears on the display screen and SoLED is ready for operation.  After initial power-up, the last-saved 

DMX address will appear.

ETTING

 

 

Depending on location, change the Default Frequency setting to match the mains power (e.g., US and Canada 

should be set at 60Hz).  Proper frequency setting will ensure minimum amount of visible artifacts when using 

Solaris LED on camera.
