DESCRIPTION

M12 connection system between Power supply and LED bar (All versions)
Powercon + XLR connectors (FOS 100 SOLO IP20)
Harting connectors (FOS 100 SOLO IP65 )

FOS 100 is a new compact self-contained LED bar designed for colouring large surfaces with a uniform
projection, either indoor and outdoor.
FOS 100 can be used for many applications, such as: professional, for an ample range of special events;
theatre and television, for uniform background colours and cycloramas; architectural, for lighting building
facades, public and commercial spaces, monuments, etc.
FOS 100 is made on aluminium and steel offering high resistance to mechanical stress, with an IP65
protection rating.
FOS 100 length is 99 cm.
Various FOS 100 units can be easily connected together: the LEDs distribution pattern guarantees no
black spaces between the LEDs of in-line bars, and an even coverage of lighted surfaces.
FOS 100 is available with or without a Z10 integrated power supply.
The Z10 power supply is available either with IP65 or IP20 protection rating.
Three dedicated lenses sets (Spot, Medium flood, Wide flood) are available for each model, offering
different light beam projection angles.
FOS 100 SOLO can be controlled via any DMX lighting console.
FOS 100 range comprises various models, which employ different sets of LEDs tailored for distinct
applications:

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Fire prevention:

Never locate the fixture on any flammable surface.
Minimum distance from flammable materials: 10 cm.
Replace any blown or damaged fuses only with those of identical value.

Prevention from electric shock:

High voltage is present inside the unit.
Unplug the unit prior to performing any operation which involves touching the inside of the unit.
This equipment must be grounded, do not connect to non-grounded supplies.

Use only AC supplies 90-260 V, 50-60 Hz.
FOS 100 SOLO IP20 model should never be located in position exposed to rain or in areas of
extreme humidity.
A good air ventilation is essential for proper equipment work.

Safety:

The external surface of the unit may exeed 50°C; never handle the unit until at least 5 minutes
have elapsed since the unit was turned off.

The use of a thermal magnetic circuit breaker is recommended for each FOS 100 SOLO unit.

For application where IP65 rating is not necessary, FOS 100 cabling connection can be
done with a standard UTP B2 category 5E cable.
The maximum distance between power supply and the unit should not exceed 100
meters (Z1 PLUS or Z10 LED Controller) or 50 meters (Z8 LED Controller).

For IP65 rating application, D.T.S. reccomend the use of a IP65/68 cable as the
Multipolar black cable (IP68) (D.T.S. Code: 0509C062).
The maximum distance between power supply and the unit should not exceed 100
meters (Z1 PLUS or Z10 LED Controller) or 50 meters (Z8 LED Controller).

DMX SIGNAL CONNECTION:

FOS 100 SOLO IP20 FULL RGBW
FOS 100 SOLO IP20 FULL WHITE CT

The unit operates using a digital DMX 512 signal. Connection between the controller and the unit or
between units must be carried out using a two pair screened ø 0.5 mm.

P. S :
If the display showing the DMX address flashes, then one of the following errors has occurred:

- DMX signal not present

- DMX reception problem

For Installations where long distance DMX cable connections are needed, we suggest to use a DMX
terminator.
The DMX terminator is a male XLR 3-5 pins connector with a 120 ohm resistor Between pin 2 and 3.
The DMX terminator must be plugged into the last unit (DMX out panel connector) of the DMX line.

Ensure that the conductors do not touch each other. Do not connect the cable ground to the DMX
connector chassis. The plug housing must be isolated. Connect the mixer signal to the DMX IN
projector plug and connect it to the next projector by connecting the DMX OUT plug on the first unit to
the DMX IN plug of the second one.
In this way, all the projectors are cascade connected.

The standard configuration of the FOS 100 SOLO is with XLR 5 pins connectors.

Selecting the DMX address

1) Press the UP-DOWN key until you reach the required DMX address. The numbers on the
display will start to flash (but the new DMX address hasn't yet been set).

2) Press ENTER to confirm your selection. The numbers on the display will stop flashing and the
projector is now controlled by the new DMX address.

TIPS: if you keep pushed the UP or DOWN keys, the channels are calculated more quickly and
you get a faster selection.

FOS 100 SOLO FULL RGBW and FOS 100 SOLO FULL WHITE CT can be used in seven different
modes: 10 DMX channels mode (default), 6 DMX channels mode (Shutter + Dimmer + RGBA),
WALL mode (6 DMX channels; for use with DTS Wall mounted DMX controller 0514L007), M4CH
mode (5 DMX channels; Dimmer + RGBA), RGBA mode (4 channels), 1 DMX channel mode or
CUSTOM DMX mode (not yet implemented).

If you want to use the FOS 100 SOLO FULL RGBW or FULL WHITE CT in “WALL” mode, select
the “WALL” mode from the MODE menu and set the following addresses on the mixer: (To be

used only with DTS Wall mounted DMX controller 0514L007)

Projector 1 A001
Projector 2 A006
Projector 3 A012

projector 6 A030

If you want to use the FOS 100 SOLO FULL RGBW or FULL WHITE CT in 10 channels mode,
select the 10 CH mode from the MODE menu and set the following addresses on the mixer:

FOS 100

If you want to select the next projector, just add “6”

DTS Wall mounted DMX controller 0514L007 assign 6 DMX
channels per unit also if some channels are not used

DISPLAY FUNCTIONS

DISPLAY FUNCTIONS

The FOS 100 SOLO display panel shows all the available functions . Using these functions, it is
possible to change some of the parameters and add some functions. Changing the D.T.S. setting
can vary the functions of the unit so that it does not respond to the DMX 512 signal used to
control it. Carefully follow the instructions below before carrying out any variations or selections.
NOTE: the symbol shows which key has to be pushed to obtain the desired function.
