cable appropriate for your application. Allow one hour warm up if ambient temperature is below 10˚C (50˚F) .
CONNECTING POWER
Depending on the application, the luminaire’s AC input cable may require a diff erent connector. If required,
install a new connector meeting your requirements using the following wire color code reference:

WARNING
: It is not recommended to power any Vari-Lite luminaire from a dimmer - even in ‘NONDIM’ mode.
Dimmer and non-dim modules are not suitable sources of power because their output modifi es the AC wave
form. This may work for a short time, but will eventually result in power problems, luminaire mis-operation and/
or failure and may void the luminaire’s warranty.
DMX TERMINATION CONNECTOR
A DMX termination connector is required at the last luminaire (or “far end of the line”) to prevent signal refl ec-
tions. Signal refl ections may cancel out the signal at certain line lengths, resulting in errors. The terminator is
also necessary for software downloads and running tests on multiple luminaires. To construct your own connec-
tor, you will need a 5-pin, male XLR connector.
NOTE
: A DMX termination connector assembly is available as an accessory from Vari-Lite.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
HANGING THE LUMINAIRE
The VL5LED WASH can be hung horizontally or vertically from any structure
designed to work with the type of load created by this moving luminaire. Two
mounting truss hooks or other mounting hardware are required. Many compat-
ible truss hooks are available from diff erent manufacturers for your particular
needs. A minimum of two hooks per luminaire is required. If mounting method
does not use truss hooks, two attachment points, per luminaire, are required.
To install mounting hardware and brackets:
Step 1.
Install truss hooks on two provided truss hook brackets as required.
Step 2.
Determine required confi guration of bracket installation. Brackets may
be installed in many diff erent orientations.
Step 3.
While pulling up on locking mechanism release, fi t keyed holes onto
raised mounting buttons at bottom of enclosure. Slide forward and
release locking mechanism to lock in place. Ensure brackets are locked
securely.
WARNING
: Ensure that the bracket locking mechanism is fully seated after the bracket is installed on the
luminaire.
