Eco UV Bar DMX DMX Set Up
Eco UV Bar DMX DMX Set Up
Power Supply: The ADJ Eco UV Bar DMX contains a automatic volt-
age switch, which will auto sense the voltage when it is plugged into a power source. With this switch there is no need to worry about the correct power voltage, this unit can be plugged in anywhere.
DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal pro-
tocol used as a form of communication between intelligent fixtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions from the controller to the fixture. DMX data is sent as serial data that trav­els from fixture to fixture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR ter­minals located on all DMX fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA “OUT” terminal).
DMX Linking: DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of dierent manufactures to be linked together and operate from a single controller, as long as all xtures and the controller are DMX compli­ant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. The order in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle. When a fixture is assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to address 1 to that unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.
Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX Operation):
The Eco UV Bar DMX can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The Eco UV Bar DMX is a 3 Channel DMX unit. The DMX address is set on the rear panel of the Eco UV Bar DMX. Your unit and your DMX control­ler require a approved DMX-512 110 Ohm Data cable for data input and data output (Figure 1). We recommend Accu-Cable DMX cables. If you are making your own cables, be sure to use standard 110-120 Ohm shielded cable (This cable may be purchased at almost all professional sound and lighting stores). Your cables should be made with a male and female XLR connector on either end of the cable. Also remember that DMX cable must be daisy chained and cannot be split.
Figure 1
Notice: Be sure to follow gures two and three when making your own
cables. Do not use the ground lug on the XLR connector. Do not con­nect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behavior.

used, you may need to use a terminator on the last unit to avoid erratic behavior. A terminator is a 90-120 ohm 1/4 watt resistor which is con­nected between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector (DATA + and DATA -). This unit is inserted in the female XLR connector of the last unit in your daisy chain to terminate the line. Using a cable terminator (ADJ part number Z-DMX/T) will decrease the possibilities of erratic behavior.

connectors for DATA transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin XLR xtures may be implemented in a 3-pin XLR DMX line. When inserting standard 5-pin XLR connectors in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used, these adaptors are readily available at most electric stores. The chart below details a proper cable conversion.

Eco UV Bar DMX Operating Instructions Eco UV Bar DMX Operating Instructions
LED Display On/Off:
To set the LED display to turn off after 10 seconds, press the MODE but­ton until “dS-x” is displayed. “X” represents either “1” or “2”. Press the UP or DOWN buttons so that “dS-2” is displayed. Now the display will disappear after 10s. Press any button to turn the display on again. Be advised though that the display will turn off automatically after 10 sec-
onds.
“dS-1” = LED display on at all times. “dS-2” = LED display shuts off after 10 seconds.
DMX Mode:
Operating through a DMX controller gives the user the freedom to create their own programs tailored to their own individual needs. The Eco UV
Bar DMX has 3 DMX Channels.
1. This function will allow you to control each individual fixture’s traits with a standard DMX 512 controller.
2. To run your fixture in DMX mode press the MODE button until “1XXX” is displayed. “XXX” represents the current displayed ad­ dress. Use the UP or DOWN buttons to select your desired DMX
address.
3. Please see page 10 for the DMX values and traits.
4. After you have set your desired DMX address plug in the fixture via
the XLR connections to any standard DMX controller.
UV Fade Mode:
1. Plug the fixture in and press the MODE button until “AFXX” is dis­ played. “XX” represents a number between 1-3.
2. The fade speed can be adjusted between 1 (slowest) to 3 (fastest).
3. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to adjust the fade speed to your
desire.
Delay:
1. Plug the fixture in and press the MODE button until “dr-X” is dis­ played. “X” represents a number between 0-4.
2. The output intensity can be adjusted between 000 (off) to 255 (bright­ est).
3. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to adjust the output intensity to your
desire.
Note: The delay mode works in conjunction with Channel 3 values 101-
255.
Strobe Mode:
1. Plug the fixture in and press the MODE button until “2-XX” is dis­ played. “XX” represents a number between 1-20.
2. The strobe speed can be adjusted between 1 (slowest) to 20 (fastest).
3. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to adjust the speed to your desire.
Output Intensity:
1. Plug the fixture in and press the MODE button until “UXXX” is dis­ played. “XXX” represents a number between 000-255.
2. The output intensity can be adjusted between 000 (off) to 255 (bright­ est).
3. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to adjust the output intensity to your
desire.

Eco UV Bar DMX DMX Control
Eco UV Bar DMX UC IR/Airstream App Control
Universal DMX Control: This function allows you to use a univer-
sal DMX-512 controller to control the chases and patterns, dimmer and strobe. A DMX controller allows you to create unique programs tailored to your individual needs. The Eco UV Bar DMX has 3 DMX Channels. See page 11 for the DMX traits and values.
1. This function will allow you to control each individual fixture’s traits with a standard DMX 512 controller.
2. To run your fixture in DMX mode, set your desired DMX address following the directions on page 7, and the set-up specifications that come with your DMX controller.
3. Plug in the fixture via the XLR connections to any standard DMX
controller.
4. For longer cable runs (more than a 100 feet) use a terminator on the last fixture.
Eco UV Bar DMX Master-Slave Configuration
Master-Slave Operation: This function will allow you to link up to 16
units together and operate without a controller. The units will be sound activated. In Master-Slave operation one unit will act as the controlling
unit and the others will react to the controlling units programs. Any unit can act as a Master or as a Slave.
1. Using approved DMX data cables, daisy chain your units togeth- er via the XLR connector on the rear of the units. Remember the Male XLR connector is the input and the Female XLR connector is the output. The rst unit in the chain (master) will use the female XLR connector only - The last unit in the chain will use the male XLR connector only. For longer cable runs we suggest a termina­ tor at the last fixture.
2. On the Master unit set your desired settings.
3. Set the Slave units to DMX mode setting. The Slave units should now follow the Master.
The UC IR infrared remote (Included) gives you control of various functions (See below). To control the fixture you must aim the remote at the front of the fixture and be no more than 30 feet away.
The Airstream IR (sold separately) remote transmitter plugs into the headphone jack of your iOS phone or tablet. To control your IR fixture you must raise the volume to the maximum on your iOS phone or tab­let and aim the transmitter at the fixture sensor and be no more than 15 feet away. After you have purchased the Airstream IR transmitters, the app is a free download from the app store for your iOS phone or tablet. The app comes with 3 pages of control depending on the fix­ture you are using. Please see below for IR functions. This unit works with App page 1.
