ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION + ADDRESSING
Important: The electrical installation should be carried out by qualified personal only,
according to the regulations for electrical and mechanical safety in your country.
Electrical installation for 1 standalone unit:
Just insert the mains cable. The unit starts working immediately in stand-alone mode.
Remark1: You can connect a CA-8 or RF-8 remote controller to the unit if you want to have more control.
Refer to “how to operate the unit” to learn how to do this.
Remark2: if there’s no output, please make sure to set the unit in master mode and set the blackout mode
to “NO” and Sound State to “On” (see previous chapter)
Electrical installation for two or more units in master/slave:
In this mode the units will show a synchronized show, working to the rhythm of the beat.
Electrical installation for two or more units in DMX-master/slave:
In this mode the units will show a synchronized show, working to the rhythm of the beat but you can still
control some functions on the master by 1 or 4 DMX-channels.
To assure proper operation you need an optional “Mini DMX-SPLITTER” (order code: 4630) to isolate
the master/slave line from the main DMX-line, see drawing.
Connect 2 to maximum 16 units together using good quality balanced microphone cables. The first unit
in the chain will act as the master, the other units will act automatically as slaves.
Set the master to 1MSL or 4MSL channel mode (see previous chapter). Check the DMX-chart below to
see the difference between both channel modes.
For the DMX-controller the master and his slaves can now be considered as 1 virtual effect that needs a
start address so it can be controlled as any other DMX-unit in the DMX chain: see “DMX Address” in the
chapter “Main Menu” to see how you can set the DMX-start address.
Make sure that all units are connected to the mains.
Set the DMX-controller according to the DMX-chart below.
Done!
Remark: in order to work well to the rhythm of the music, make sure that the option “Sound State” on the
master is set to “On” (see previous chapter)
DMX-Chart for 1MSL and 4MSL working modes
1 MSL4 MSL
Connect 2 to maximum 16 units together using good quality balanced microphone cables. The first unit
in the chain will automatically act as the master, the other units will act automatically as slaves.
Make sure that all units are connected to the mains.
Done!
Remark: You can connect a CA-8 or RF-8 remote controller to the master unit if you want to have more
control over the master/slave operation
Remark2: if there’s no output, please make sure to set the first unit in master mode and set the blackout
mode to “NO” and Sound State to “On” (see previous chapter)

Electrical installation in DMX-mode:
The DMX-protocol is a widely used high speed signal to control intelligent light equipment. You need to
“daisy chain” your DMX controller and all the connected units with a good quality balanced cable.
Both XLR-3pin and XLR-5pin connectors are used, however XLR-3pin is more popular because these
cables are compatible with balanced audio cables.
Pin layout XLR-3pin:

ENGLISHUSER MANUAL
ENGLISHUSER MANUAL
Pin layout XLR-5pin:
To prevent strange behavior of the light effects, due to interferences, you must use a 90Ω to 120Ω
terminator at the end of the chain. Never use Y-splitter cables, this simply won’t work!
Make sure that all units are connected to the mains.
Each light effect in the chain needs to have its proper starting address so it knows
which commands from the controller it has to decode. In the next section you will
learn how to set the DMX addresses.
HOW TO SET THE RIGHT STARTING ADDRESS:
Refer to the previous chapter (DMX-512 address setting) to learn how to set the starting address on this unit.
The starting address of each unit is very important. Unfortunately it is impossible to tell you in this user
manual which starting addresses you have to set because this completely depends on the controller you will
use… So please refer to the user manual of your DMX-controller to find out which starting addresses you
must set.
DMX-CONFIGURATION OF SIRIUS:
Pin1 = GND ~ Pin2 = Negative signal (-) ~ Pin3 = Positive signal (+) ~ Pins4+5 not used.
OPERATE THE UNIT BY CA8 OR RF8SET
When used in standalone or master/slave mode we strongly advise you to use the CA-8 “Wired easy
controller” or RF-8SET “Wireless easy controller”.
CA-8 wired remote: Connect the controller to the jack input of the first unit (master).
RF-8SET wireless remote: the wireless remote has two parts:
RF-8T: small RF-transmitter that can control up to 5 effects.
RF-8R: small RF-receiver that should be connected to the DIN 5pin input of
Now you can control all the connected units:

MAINTENANCE
Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during servicing.
Switch off the unit, unplug the mains cable and wait until the unit is cooled down.
During inspection the following points should be checked:
All screws used for installing the device and any of its parts should be tightly fastened and may not be
corroded.
Housings, fixations and installations spots (ceiling, truss, suspensions) should be totally free from any
deformation.
When an optical lens is visibly damaged due to cracks or deep scratches, it must be replaced.
The mains cables must be in impeccable condition and should be replaced immediately when even a
small problem is detected.
In order to protect the device from overheat the cooling fans (if any) and ventilation openings should be
cleaned monthly.
The interior of the device should be cleaned annually using a vacuum cleaner or air-jet.
The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out periodically to
optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates: damp,
smoky or particularly dirty surroundings can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the unit’s optics.
Clean with a soft cloth using normal glass cleaning products.
Always dry the parts carefully.
Clean the external optics at least once every 30 days.
Clean the internal optics at least every 90 days.
Attention: We strongly recommend internal cleaning to be carried out by qualified personnel!
