Getting It Out Of The Box
Congratulations on purchasing a fi xture which will make you beam with pride (yuk, yuk)! Now that you’ve got your Torrent 90 Beam, you should carefully unpack the box and check the contents to ensure that all parts are present and in good condition. If anything looks as if it has been damaged in transit, notify the shipper immediately and keep the packing material for inspection. Again, please save the carton and all packing materials. If a fi xture must be returned to the factory, it is important that the fi xture be returned in the original factory box and
packing.
Powering Up!
All xtures must be powered directly off a switched circuit and cannot be run off a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch.
AC Voltage Switch - Not all fi xtures have a voltage select switch, so please verify that the fi xture you receive is suitable for your local pow- er supply. See the label on the fi xture or refer to the fi xture’ s specifi - cations chart for more information. A fi xture’s listed current rating is its average current draw under normal conditions. Check the fi xture or device carefully to make sure that if a voltage selection switch exists that it is set to the correct line voltage you will use.
Warning! Verify that the voltage select switch on your unit matches the line voltage applied. Damage to your fi xture may result if the line voltage applied does not match the voltage indicated on the voltage selector switch. All fi xtures must be
connected to circuits with a suitable Ground (Earthing).
Getting A Hold Of Us
If something is wrong, just give us a call or send an email. We’ll be happy to help, honest.

Fuse Replacement
With a fl at head screwdriver, wedge the fuse holder out of its housing. Remove the damaged fuse from its holder and replace with exact same type fuse. Insert the fuse holder back in its place and reconnect power.
Connecting A Bunch of Torrent 90 Beams™
You will need a serial data link to run light shows using a DMX-512 controller or to run shows on two or more fi xtures set to sync in mas- ter/slave operating mode. The combined number of channels required by all the fi xtures on a serial data link determines the number of fi x- tures the data link can support.
Fixtures on a serial data link must be daisy chained in one single line. Also, connecting more than 32 fi xtures on one serial data link without the use of a DMX optically-isolated splitter may result in deterioration of the digital DMX signal. The maximum recommended cable-run distance is 500 meters (1640 ft). The maximum recommended number of fi xtures on a serial data link is 32 fi xtures.
Data/DMX Cabling
To link fi xtures together you’ll need data cables. You should use data- grade cables that can carry a high quality signal and are less prone to electromagnetic interference.
For instance, Belden© 9841 meets the specifi cations for EIA RS-485 applications. Standard microphone cables will “probably” be OK, but note that they cannot transmit DMX data as reliably over long distanc­es. In any event, the cable should have the following characteristics:
2-conductor twisted pair plus a shield
Maximum capacitance between conductors – 30 pF/ft. Maximum capacitance between conductor & shield – 55 pF/ft. Maximum resistance of 20 ohms / 1000 ft. Nominal impedance 100 – 140 ohms

Cable Connectors
Cables must have a male XLR connector on one end and a female XLR connector on the other end. (Duh!)
CAUTION: Do not allow contact between the common and the fi x- ture’s chassis ground. Grounding the common can cause a ground loop, and your fi xture may perform erratically. Test cables with an ohm meter to verify correct polarity and to make sure the pins are not grounded or shorted to the shield or each other.
3-Pin??? 5-Pin??? Huh?!?
If you use a controller with a 5 pin DMX output connector, you will need to use a 5 pin to 3 pin adapter. They are widely available over the internet and from specialty retailers If you’d like to build your own, the chart below details a proper cable conversion:
Conductor 3-Pin Female
(Output)
5-Pin Male (Input)
Ground/Shield Pin 1 Pin 1 DMX Data (-) Pin 2 Pin 2 DMX Data (+) Pin 3 Pin 3 Not Used. No Connection. No Connection. Not Used. No Connection. No Connection.
Take It To The Next Level: Setting Up DMX Control
Step 1: Connect the male connector of the
DMX cable to the female connector (output) on the controller.
Step 2: Connect the female connector of the DMX cable to the fi rst fi xture’s male connec- tor (input). Note: It doesn’t matter which xture address is the fi rst one connected. We recommend connecting the fi xtures in terms of their proximity to the controller, rather than connecting the lowest fi xture number fi rst, and so on.
Step 3: Connect other fi xtures in the chain from output to input as above. Place a DMX terminator on the output of the fi nal fi xture to ensure best communication.

Fixture Linking (Master/Slave Mode)
1. Connect the (male) 3 pin connector side of the DMX cable to the output (female) 3 pin connector of the fi rst fi xture.
2. Connect the end of the cable coming from the rst fi xture which will have a (female) 3 pin connec- tor to the input connector of the next fi xture con- sisting of a (male) 3 pin connector. Then, proceed to connect from the output as stated above to the input of the following fi xture and so on.
A quick note: Often, the setup for Master­Slave and Standalone operation requires that the fi rst fi xture in the chain be initialized for this purpose via either settings in the control panel or DIP-switches. Secondarily, the fi xtures that follow may also re­quire a slave setting.
Check the “Operating Adjustments” section in this manual for com­plete instructions for this type of setup and confi guration.
Mounting & Rigging
This fi xture may be mounted in any SAFE position provided there is enough room for ventilation.
It is important never to obstruct the fan or vents pathway. Mount the xture using a suitable “C” or “O” type clamp. The clamp should be rated to hold at least 10x the fi xture’s weight to ensure structural sta- bility. Do not mount to surfaces with unknown strength, and ensure properly “rated” rigging is used when mounting fi xutres overhead.
Adjust the angle of the fi xture by loosening both knobs and tilting the xture. After fi nding the desired position, retighten both knobs.
• When selecting installation location, take into consideration lamp replacement access (if applicable) and routine maintenance.
• Safety cables MUST ALWAYS be used.
• Never mount in places where the fi xture will be exposed to rain, high humidity, extreme temperature changes or restricted ventilation.

5. APPENDIX
A Quick Lesson On DMX
DMX (aka DMX-512) was created in 1986 by the United States Institute for Theatre Technology (USITT) as a standardized method for connecting lighting consoles to lighting dimmer modules. It was revised in 1990 and again in 2000 to allow more fl exibility. The Entertainment Services and Technology Association (ESTA) has since assumed control over the DMX512 standard. It has also been approved and recognized for ANSI standard clas­sifi cation.
DMX covers (and is an abbreviation for) Digital MultipleXed signals. It is the most common communications standard used by lighting and related stage equipment.
DMX provides up to 512 control “channels” per data link. Each of these channels was origi­nally intended to control lamp dimmer levels. You can think of it as 512 faders on a lighting console, connected to 512 light bulbs. Each slider’s position is sent over the data link as an 8-bit number having a value between 0 and 255. The value 0 corresponds to the light bulb being completely off while 255 corresponds to the light bulb being fully on.
DMX data is transmitted at 250,000 bits per second using the RS-485 transmission stan­dard over two wires. As with microphone cables, a grounded cable shield is used to prevent interference with other signals.
There are fi ve pins on a DMX connector: a wire for ground (cable shield), two wires for “Primary” communication which goes from a DMX source to a DMX receiver, and two wires for a “Secondary” communication which goes from a DMX receiver back to a DMX source. Generally, the “Secondary” channel is not used so data fl ows only from sources to receiv- ers. Hence, most of us are most familiar with DMX-512 as being employer over typical 3-pin “mic cables,” although this does not conform to the defi ned standard.
DMX is connected using a daisy-chain confi guration where the source connects to the input of the fi rst device, the output of the fi rst device connects to the input of the next device, and so on. The standard allows for up to 32 devices on a single DMX link.
Each receiving device typically has a means for setting the “starting channel number” that it will respond to. For example, if two 6-channel fi xtures are used, the fi rst fi xture might be set to start at channel 1 so it would respond to DMX channels 1 through 6, and the next xture would be set to start at channel 7 so it would respond to channels 7 through 12.
The greatest strength of the DMX communications protocol is that it is very simple and robust. It involves transmitting a reset condition (indicating the start of a new “packet”), a start code, and up to 512 bytes of data. Data packets are transmitted continuously. As soon as one packet is fi nished, another can begin with no delay if desired (usually another follows within 1 ms). If nothing is changing (i.e. no lamp levels change) the same data will be sent out over and over again. This is a great feature of DMX -- if for some reason the data is not interpreted the fi rst time around, it will be re-sent shortly.
Not all 512 channels need to be output per packet, and in fact, it is very uncommon to fi nd all 512 used. The fewer channels are used, the higher the “refresh” rate. It is possible to get DMX refreshes at around 1000 times per second if only 24 channels are being trans­mitted. If all 512 channels are being transmitted, the refresh rate is around 44 times per second.
In summary, since its design and evolution in the 1980’s DMX has become the standard for lighting control. It is fl exible, robust, and scalable, and its ability to control everything from dimmer packs to moving lights to foggers to lasers makes it an indispensible tool for any lighting designer or lighting performer.

Keeping Your Torrent 90 Beam As Good As New
The fi xture you’ve received is a rugged, tough piece of pro lighting equip- ment, and as long as you take care of it, it will take care of you. That said, like anything, you’ll need to take care of it if you want it to operate as designed. You should absolutely keep the fi xture clean, especially if you are using it in an environment with a lot of dust, fog, haze, wild animals, wild teenagers or spilled drinks.
Cleaning the optics routinely with a suitable glass cleaner will greatly improve the quality of light output. Keeping the fans free of dust and debris will keep the fi xture running cool and prevent damage from overheating.
In transit, keep the fi xtures in cases. You wouldn’t throw a prized guitar, drumset, or other piece of expensive gear into a gear trailer without a case, and similarly, you shouldn’t even think about doing it with your shiny new light xtures.
Common sense and taking care of your fi xtures will be the single biggest thing you can do to keep them running at peak performance and let you worry about designing a great light show, putting on a great concert, or maximizing your cli­ent’s satistfaction and “wow factor.” That’s what it’s all about, after all!
Returns (Gasp!)
We’ve taken a lot of precautions to make sure you never even have to worry about sending a defective unit back, or sending a unit in for service. But, like any complex piece of equipment designed and built by humans, once in a while, something doesn’t go as planned. If you fi nd yourself with a fi xture that isn’t behaving like a good little fi xture should, you’ll need to obtain a Return Authori- zation (RA).
Don’t worry, this is easy. Just send an email to support@blizzardlighting.com, and we’ll issue you an RA. Then, you’ll need to send the unit to us using a trackable, pre-paid freight method. We suggest using USPS Priority or UPS. Make sure you carefully pack the fi xture for transit, and whenever possible, use the original box & packing for shipping.
When returning your fi xture for service, be sure to include the following:
1.) Your contact information (Name, Address, Phone Number, Email address).
2.) The RA# issued to you
3.) A brief description of the problem/symptoms.
We will, at our discretion, repair or replace the fi xture. Please remember that any shipping damage which occurs in transit to us is the customer’s responsibil­ity, so pack it well!
Shipping Issues
Damage incurred in shipping is the responsibility of the shipper, and must be reported to the carrier immediately upon receipt of the items. Claims must be made within seven (7) days of receipt.
