Immediately upon receiving the product, carefully unpack the carton, check the contents to ensure that all parts are present, and
have been received in good condition. Notify the shipper immediately and retain packing material for inspection if any parts appear damage from
shipping or the package itself shows signs of mishandling. Save the package and all packing materials. In the event that the product must be returned to
the factory, it is important that the product be returned in the original factory box and packing.
If the unit has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g. after transportation), do not switch it on immediately. The arising condensation water
might damage your unit. Leave the unit switched off until it has reached room temperature.
The label on the backside of the unit indicates the mains voltage to which it must be connected. Check that the mains voltage corresponds to this. Any
other voltage than the one indicated may cause irreparable damage to the unit. The unit must also be connected directly to the mains voltage and no
dimmer or adjustable power supply may be used.
The unit has a powerconnector output on board. Depending on the local conditions several units can be linked by powerconnector in- and output. Connect
a maximum of four (when using 230V/16A) units in a row. Use an approved three-core cable with a cross-section of at least 1.5 mm². The installation
instructions of the manufacturer and the colour coding of the cable must be observed. Do not turn off the unit by turning the powerconnector but use the
power on/off switch or schuko!
Always connect the unit to a protected circuit (circuit breaker or fuse). Make sure the unit has an appropriate electrical ground to
avoid the risk of electrocution or fire.
The unit may be set up on a stable and even surface. By means of the fixing facilities of the baseplate, the unit can also be mounted upside down to a truss,
see below picture. For fixing, certified clamps with correct save working load are required. According to the figure, the quick lock bolts of the omega
brackets are placed into the openings provided in the base plate and turned clockwise until they lock (to the stop). The mounting place must be of
sufficient stability and be able to support a weight of 10 times of the unit's weight. Secure the unit with a safety cable so that it cannot fall down.
When carrying out any installation, always comply European and national guidelines concerning rigging, truss and all other safety issues. Always let the
installation checked out by an authorized dealer !
If you are using a standard DMX controller, you can connect the DMX output of the controller directly to the DMX input of the first unit in a DMX chain.
Always connect the output of one unit with the input of the next unit until all units are connected.
At the last unit, you must close the DMX line with a terminating resistor. Take an XLR connector and solder a 120 Ohm resistor
between signal (-) and signal (+) and connect it to the DMX output of the last unit in the line.
Units with protection class IP65 are dust-tight and completely protected against contact (first code number). They are also protected against splash water
from any angle (second code digit). That is why this unit can also be used out‐ doors. Events units are generally only designed for temporary use however
(event lighting) and not for permanent use outdoors. The specified protection class does not make a statement about the weather resistance of the units
(resistance to changing ambient conditions as well as against the effects of sunlight and UV rays). The seals and screw connections of the units must be
checked regularly to ensure a fault-free operation.
