Inno Color Beam Z19 Safety Precautions
Inno Color Beam Z19 Installation
• 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.
• Never plug this unit in to a dimmer pack
• 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.
• During long periods of non-use, disconnect the unit’s main power.
• 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 the point they exit from the unit.
• Cleaning -The fixture should be cleaned only as recommended by
t he manufacturer. See page 22 for cleaning details.
• Heat -The appliance should be situated away from heat sources
such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (inclu d ing amplifiers) that produce heat.
• The fixture should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:
A. The power-supply cord or the plug has been damaged.
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the appliance.
C. The appliance has been exposed to rain or water.
D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a
marked change in performance.
When installing the unit, the trussing or area of installation must be
able to hold 10 times the weight without any deformation. When
installing the unit must be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. and appropriate safety cable. Never stand directly below
the unit when mounting, removing, or servicing the unit.
Overhead mounting requires extensive experience, including calculating working load limits, installation material being used, and perodic
safety inspection of all installation material and unit. If you lack these
qualications, do not attempt the installation yourself.
These installaiton should be checked by a skilled person once a year.
The Inno Color Beam Z19 is fully operational in two dierent mounting positions, hanging upside-down from a ceiling or set on a at level
surface. To avoid internal damage to the unit, never mount the unit on
its side as illustrated above. Be sure this xture is kept at least 0.5m
away from any ammable materials (decoration etc.). Always use
and install the supplied safety cable as a safety measure to prevent
accidental damage and/or injury in the event the clamp fails (see next
page). Never use the carrying handles for secondary attachment.

NOTICE: The suitable enviromental temperature for this light-
ing xture is between -25˚ C to 45˚ C. Do not place this lighting
xture in an enviroment where the temperatures are under or
above the temperatures stated above. This will allow the xture
to run at its best and help prolong the xture life.
Power Supply: The ADJ Inno Color Beam Z19 contains a automatic
voltage 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
dierent 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 Inno Color Beam Z19 can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The
Inno Color Beam Z19 is a 14 Channel DMX unit. The DMX address is
set on the front panel of the Inno Color Beam Z19. Your unit and your
Screw one clamp via a M12 screw and nut onto the Omega
holder. Insert the quick-lock fasteners of the Omega holder into
the respective holes on the bottom of the Inno Color Beam Z19.
Tighten the quick-lock fasteners fully clockwise. Pull the safetycable through the eyehole hook on the bottom of the base and
over the trussing system or a safe xation spot. Insert the end in
the carabine and tighten the safety screw.

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.

Special Note: Line Termination.
When longer runs of cable are
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.

Some manufactures use 5-pin XLR

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
