Saber Spot RGBW Safety Precautions

Saber Spot RGBW DMX Set Up

For Your Own Personal Safety, Please Read and Understand This

Manual Completely Before You Attempt To Install Or Operate

This Unit!

• To reduce the risk of electrical shock or re, do not expose this unit
rain or moisture

• Do not spill water or other liquids into or on to your unit.

• Be sure that the local power outlet match that of the required volt­ age for your unit.

• Do not attempt to operate this unit if the power cord has been
frayed or broken.

• Do not attempt to remove or break o the ground prong from
the electrical cord. This prong is used to reduce the risk of electrical
shock and re in case of an internal short.

• Disconnect from main power before making any type of connection.

• Do not remove the cover under any conditions. There are no user
serviceable parts inside.

• Never operate this unit when it’s cover is removed.

• Always be sure to mount this unit in an area that will allow proper
ventilation. Allow about 6” (15cm) between this device and a wall.

• Do not attempt to operate this unit, if it becomes damaged.

• This unit is intended for indoor use only, use of this product out­ doors voids all warranties.

• Always mount this unit in safe and stable matter.

• Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to
be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them,
paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience recep­ tacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.

• Cleaning -The fixture should be cleaned only as recommended by
the manufacturer. See page 30 for cleaning details.

• Heat -This fixture should be situated away from heat sources such
as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.

• The fixture should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:
A. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the appliance.
B. The appliance has been exposed to rain or water.
C. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits
a marked change in performance.

Power Supply: The ADJ Saber Spot RGBW 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 by most lighting and controller manufactures 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. Therefore, the first fixture controlled
by the controller could be the last fixture in the chain. 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 and Master/Slave
Operation): The Saber Spot RGBW can be controlled via DMX-512

protocol. The Saber Spot RGBW has 12 DMX channel modes. The
DMX address is set electronically using the con­trols on the rear panel of the unit. 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.

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.

5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors.

Some manufactures use 5-pin DMX-

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 stan­dard 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.

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 con-

When longer runs of cable are

nected 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.

Saber Spot RGBW Power Cord Daisy Chain

With this feature you can connect the xtures to one another

using the PowerCON input and output sockets. The quantity that

can be connected is 38 xtures maximum @ 110V and a maxi­mum 68 xture’s @ 240V. After maximum limit has been reached
you will need to use a new power outlet. They must be the same
xtures. DO NOT mix xtures.

Saber Spot RGBW Cleaning

Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the internal and exter­nal optical lenses and mirror should be carried out periodically to
optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environ­ment in which the fixture operates (I.e. smoke, fog residue, dust,
dew). In heavy club use we recommend cleaning on a monthly basis.
Periodic cleaning will ensure longevity, and crisp output.

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

side casing.

2. Use a brush to wipe down the cooling vents and fan grill.

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

4. Clean the internal optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth every
30-60 days.

5. Always be sure to dry all parts completely before plugging the unit
back in.

Saber Spot RGBW Trouble Shooting

Trouble Shooting: Listed below are a few common problems that
you may encounter, with solutions.

No light output in RGBW Dimmer Mode;

1. Be sure the strobe setting is set to value 255.
