Flat Par CWWW9 Set Up

Power Supply: The American DJ Flat Par CWWW9 contains a auto­matic voltage switch, which will auto sense the voltage when it is
plugged into the 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 compli-

ant. 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 Flat Par CWWW9 can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The Flat
Par CWWW9 has 3 DMX channel modes, please see pages 7-8 for the
dierent modes. The DMX address is set on the back panel of the Flat

Par CWWW9. Your unit and your DMX controller

require a standard 3-pin XLR connector 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 pro 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.

©American DJ® - www.Americandj.com - Flat Par CWWW9 User Manual Page 5

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 110-120 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.

512 data cables for DATA transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin DMX

these adaptors are readily available at most electric stores. The chart
below details a proper cable conversion.

unit can act as a Master or as a Slave however, only one unit can be pro-

grammed to act as the “Master.”

Master-Slave Connections and Settings:

1. Daisy chain your units via the XLR connector on the rear of the unit.
Use standard XLR data cables to link your units together. Remember
that the Male XLR connector is the input and the Female XLR con-
nector is the ouput. The first 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.

2. On the “Master” unit, set your desired operating mode. For the
“Slave” unit, press the MODE button until “SLAV” is displayed

3. Now connect the “Slave” unit to the “Master” unit using the XLR con-

Disconnect the unit from its power source. Remove the power cord
from the unit. Once the cord has been removed, you will find that the

fuse holder is located inside the power socket. Insert a flat-head screw

driver into the power socket and gently pry out the fuse holder. Remove

the bad fuse and replace with a new one. The fuse holder also has a
holder for a spare fuse.

Flat Par CWWW9 Cleaning

Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the internal and exter­nal optical lenses must be carried out periodically to optimize light
output.

1. Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the

outside casing.

2. Clean the external optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth
every 20 days.

3. Always be sure to dry all parts completely before plugging

the unit back in.

Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture

operates (i.e. smoke, fog residue, dust, dew).

Flat Par CWWW9 Installation

The Flat Par CWWW9 is fully operational in three dierent mounting

positions, hanging upside-down from a ceiling, hanging sideways on

trussing, or set on a at level surface. The unit should be mounted
using a mounting clamp (not provided), axing it to the mounting

bracket that is provided with the unit. Always ensure that the unit is

rmly xed to avoid vibration and slipping while operating. Always

ensure that the structure to which you are attaching the unit is secure

and is able to support a weight of 10 times the unit’s weight. Also,
always use a safety cable that can hold 12 times the weight of the
unit when installing the xture.

The equipment must be installed by a professional, and it must be

installed in a place where it is out of the reach of people’s grasp.

Flat Par CWWW9 Trouble Shooting

Listed below are a few common problems the user may encounter,
with solutions.

Unit not responding to DMX:

1. Check that the DMX cables are connected properly and are
wired correctly (pin 3 is “hot”; on some other DMX devices
pin 2 may be ‘hot’). Also, check that all cables are connected
to the right connectors; it does matter which way the inputs

and outputs are connected.

Unit does not respond to sound:

1. Quiet or high pitched sounds will not activate the unit.

2. Make sure that Sound Active mode is activated.
