Before You Begin

The CORE StripPoint is a battery-powered wireless LED batten capable of providing portable and instant
architectural and feature lighting anywhere. With high-powered red, green, blue and white LEDs the
fixture is capable of producing any colour or shade of white using combinations of those LEDs. Ideal for
illuminating buildings in colour, both indoors and outdoors, the fixture is powerful enough to light buildings
of 3 or 4 storeys. Lighting effects may be created by connecting to effects generators such as lighting
desks or other CORE Master units using the in-built Wireless DMX receiver. Simply connect wirelessly to
the transmitter of the generator.
The product is designed, manufactured and supported in the UK plus local distributor support.

Power

The unit can be run either from the battery or off the mains inlet on the side. When the unit is
plugged into the flightcase the battery will be charged but note that while in the flightcase the
unit will be switched off to prevent overheating.

Mains input voltage: 100 -240VAC 50/60Hz
Rated power: 150W

! Power reduction on over-temperature

Note that the internal workings of the unit are protected from over-temperature conditions to
protect the battery. If the unit is used for a long period on mains power in higher ambient
temperature, with all LEDs activated on full output then the thermal cutout sequence will be
activated based on the internal temperature.

Initially the unit will adjust the LED output back to 75% to reduce power consumption, and
then under more severe conditions the internal power supply will cut out, to leave the fixture
running on battery only until the internal temperature drops. At this point the internal power
supply will recover to restore normal power.

It is advisable to use the fixture on single colour white channel only, if a white colour effect is
desired to be output from the unit.

If the power cable is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer or service agent.

!

Ensure the product is used only with correct voltage and frequency of mains supply.

Never connect the fixture or charging case to a dimmer circuit, even when a dimmer has
been configured for ‘non-dim‘ or ‘switched’ operation.

Ventilation and Mounting

Always use the product in a safe position and ensure there is enough room around it for ventilation.

!

Do not close the lid during charging; this allows escape of heat.
