SAFETY GUIDELINES
• DO NOT shake device, and avoid brute force when installing and operating.
• DO NOT operate device if the power cord has been frayed, crimped, damaged, and/or if
any of the power cord connectors are damaged and do not insert easily into the device.
• NEVER force a power cord connector into the device. If the power cord or any of its connectors are damaged, it must immediately be replaced with a new cord or connector of
the same power rating.
• DO NOT block any air ventilation slots.
• All fan and air inlets must remain clean and never blocked.
• For proper cooling, allow approx. 6” (15cm) between the device and other devices or a
wall.
• When installing the device in a suspended environment, always use mounting hardware
that is at least M10x25mm, and always install the device with an appropriately rated
safety cable.
• Always disconnect the device from its main power source before performing any type of
service or cleaning procedure.
• Handle the cord only by the plug end. NEVER pull out the plug by tugging on the wire portion of the cord.
• Consistent operational breaks will ensure that the device functions properly for many
years.
• Use ONLY the original packaging and materials to transport the device in the event that
service or repair is required.

MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES
DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE!
CLEANING
Frequent cleaning is recommended to ensure proper function and extended life. The
frequency of cleaning depends on the environment in which the device operates: damp,
smoky, or particularly dirty environments can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the
device and air vents. Clean the external surface regularly with a soft cloth to avoid dirt/
debris accumulation.
NEVER use alcohol, solvents, or ammonia-based cleaners.
MAINTENANCE
Regular inspections are recommended to ensure proper function and extended life. There
are no user serviceable parts inside this device. Please refer all other service issues to an
authorized Elation service technician. Should you need any spare parts, please order genuine
parts from your local Elation dealer.
Please refer to the following points during routine inspections:
• A detailed electrical check by an approved electrical engineer every three months, in
order to make sure the circuit contacts are in good condition and prevent overheating.
• Be sure all screws and fasteners are securely tightened at all times. Loose screws may fall
out during normal operation, resulting in damage or injury as larger parts could fall.
• Check for any deformations on the housing, rigging hardware, and rigging points (ceiling,
suspension, trussing). Deformations in the housing could allow for dust to enter into the
device. Damaged rigging points or unsecured rigging could cause the device to fall and
seriously injure a person(s).
• Electrical power supply cables must not show any damage, material fatigue, or sediments.
NEVER remove the ground prong from the power cable.

Device MUST be installed following all local, national, and country commercial electrical and
construction codes and regulations.
Before rigging/mounting the device to any metal truss/structure or placing the device on any
surface, a professional equipment installer MUST be consulted to determine if the metal truss/
structure or surface is properly certied to safely hold the combined weight of the device,
clamps, cables, and accessories. Overhead device installation must always be secured with a
secondary safety attachment, such as an appropriately rated safety cable that meets all local,
national, and country codes and regulations.
Device ambient operating temperature range is 14° to 113°F (-10° to 45°C). Do not use the
device when the ambient temperature falls outside of this range.

PIXEL DRIVER 4000 V3 supports Kling-NET, Art-NET, and sACN control protocols. It can be
controlled by an Art-NET compatible controller/console and for advanced pixel programming,
or it can be controlled via a computer with media software such as ArKaos Media Master. The
driver also includes 16 internal programs for easy stand-alone demo proposes, which can be
accessed manually from the 4-button LCD control menu display.
PC – DRIVER DIRECT CONNECTION
Up to 5 PIXEL DRIVER 4000 V3 units can be linked (daisy-chained) from a computer.
For systems requiring more than 5 drivers, see the next section for more information.
PC – NETWORK SWITCH CONNECTION
Up to 50 PIXEL DRIVER 4000 V3 units can be linked (daisy-chained) from a computer and a
Gigabit Ethernet Switch (not included) that supports IGMP (Internet Group Management
Protocol). Using a Gigabit Ethernet Switch that does not support IGMP can cause erratic
behavior of all connected devices to the switch. Up to 5 PIXEL DRIVER 4000 V3 units can be
connected per ethernet switch port and up to 10 total ethernet switch ports can be used in
a system. Click link below for more information about IGMP.
NOTE: In order for RDM to work properly, RDM enabled equipment must be used
throughout the entire system, including DMX data splitters and wireless systems.
Remote Device Management (RDM) is a protocol that sits on top of the DMX512 data
standard for lighting, allowing the DMX systems of the device to be managed, modified,
and monitored remotely (hence, remote device management). This protocol is ideal for
fixtures installed in locations that are not easily accessible.
With RDM, the DMX512 system becomes bi-directional, allowing a compatible RDM
enabled controller to send out a signal to devices on the wire, as well as allowing
the fixture to respond (known as a GET command). The controller can then use it’s
SET command to modify settings that would typically have to be changed or viewed
directly via the unit’s display screen, including the DMX Address, DMX Channel Mode,
and Temperature Sensors.

PIXEL GROUPING
Each pixel requires three channels (red, green, and blue) to operate, and therefore the number
of pixels (and consequently, the number of devices) that the driver can control is limited by the
total number of control channels available on the driver.
However, this driver also gives the user the ability to adjust the pixel grouping conguration. In
the standard conguration, individual pixels are controlled independently for ner control over
the resolution of the lighting display. Alternately, multiple individual pixels may be grouped
together under a common set of control channels in order to reduce the number of required
control channels. This also reduces the eective pixel count for each xture. The downside to
this is the reduced resolution of the lighting display.
In each pixel control mode, the rst number denotes the number of individual pixels that make
up each control group, while the second number denotes the number of control groups. Each
control group will always occupy 3 DMX channels (for red, green, and blue control). This means
that within each control group, all pixels will be controlled by the same set of 3 DMX channels.
For example, let us examine a 30-pixel strip, as shown below. Selecting 2x15 mode means that
the pixels will be divided into 15 control groups, with each group containing 2 LEDs.
In this mode, a total of 45 DMX channels are used: 3 DMX channels (for Red, Green, Blue) per
group multiplied by 15 groups.
If we want to reduce the number of control groups required, one possible solution is to select a
dierent pixel grouping mode. For instance, selecting 3x10 mode will result in the LED display
being divided into 10 control groups each containing 3 pixels. Therefore, the number of DMX
channels required drops to 30: 10 control groups multiplied by 3 DMX channels (for Red, Green,
and Blue) per group.
Available pixel grouping modes are shown in the tables on the following pages.
