FS600LED Set Up

Power Supply: The ADJ FS600LED 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

different 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 FS600LED can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The FS600LED
has 3 DMX channels. The DMX address is set on the rear panel of the
FS600LED. 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.

ADJ Products, LLC - www.adj.com - FS600LED 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.

5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors.

512 data cables for DATA transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin DMX
xtures may be implemented in a 3-pin DMX line. When inserting stan-

dard 5-pin data cables 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.

FS600LED Operating Instructions

FS600LED Control Features

DMX Mode:

Operating through a DMX controller gives the user the freedom to
create their own programs tailored to their own individual needs.
This function also allows you to use your fixtures as spot lights. The

FS600LED has 3 DMX channels. See page 8 for the DMX traits.

1. This function will allow you to control each individual fixture’s

traits with a standard DMX 512 controller.

2. Plug in the fixture via the XLR connections to any standard DMX
controller.

FS600LED Fuse Replacement

FS600LED Cleaning

The fuse holder located at the rear of the unit above the power cord.
Disconnect from the main power supply. Insert a standard flat head
screw driver in to the fuse holder housing, located on the back of the
unit. Turn the screwdriver in counter-clockwise direction to remove the
fuse holder. Remove the old fuse and discard it, replace the fuse with

the same type. Insert the fuse back into it’s housing.

FS600LED Photometric Chart

FS600LED Installation

The unit should be mounted using a mounting clamp (not provided),

afxing it to the mounting bracket that is provided with the unit.
Always ensure that the unit is rmly xed to avoid vibration and slip-

ping 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.

Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the internal and exter-

nal 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).

FS600LED 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.
