PRIMARY SECONDARY CONFIGURATION
This function will allows you to link units together to run in a Primary-Secondary set-up, in which one unit will act as the controlling unit, and the others will react to the controlling unit’s built-in programs.
Any unit can act as a primary or as a secondary, but only one unit in a given system can be pro­grammed to act as the primary.
Connections and Settings:
1. Daisy chain your units via the XLR connectors on the rear panel of each unit. Use standard XLR data cables to link your units together. Remember that the male XLR connector is the input and the female XLR connector is the ouput. The rst unit in the chain (primary) will use the female XLR connector only, and the last unit in the chain will use the male XLR connector only.
2. Set the designated primary unit to the desired operating mode, as listed in the System Menu sec­tion of this manual.
3. For any unit that will operate in secondary mode, press the MODE button until “Secondary Mode”
is displayed on the screen. The secondary unit(s) will now follow the primary.
UNIVERSAL DMX CONTROL
This function allows a universal DMX-512 controller to control the unit’s chases and patterns, dimmer and strobe. A DMX controller allows the user to create unique programs tailored to his or her individ­ual needs. The xtures in this pack have 5 selectable DMX channel modes: 3 Channel, 5 Channel, 9 Channel, 12 Channel, & 18 Channel Mode. See the DMX Traits section of this manual for detailed
information.
• Control each individual xture’s traits with a standard DMX 512 controller
• To run your xture in DMX mode, follow the directions in the System Menu section of this manual
to set your DMX address and DMX Channel mode.
• Plug in the xture via the XLR connections to any standard DMX controller.

DMX SETUP
Power Supply: Each of these devices contains an automatic voltage switch, which will automatically
sense the voltage when the device is plugged into a power source. With this switch, there is no need to
worry about the correct power voltage, and this unit can be plugged in anywhere. Always use the power cord that is included with the device.
DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal protocol used as a form of communication between intelligent xtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions from the controller to the xture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from xture to xture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX xtures (most controllers only have a DATA “OUT” terminal).
DMX Linking: DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of different manufacturers to be linked together and operate from a single controller, as long as all xtures and the controller are DMX compliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, try to use the shortest cable path possible when linking several DMX xtures. The order in which xtures are connected in a DMX line does not inuence the DMX addressing. For example, a xture assigned a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in a DMX line: at the beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle. When a xture is assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to address 1 to that unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.
Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX Operation): The units in this package can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol and feature 5 selectable DMX modes. Please refer to the DMX Traits section of this manual for detailed information. The DMX address can be set using the controls on the rear panel of the unit. These units and your DMX controller require an approved DMX-512 110 ohm data cable for data input/output. We recommend Accu-Cable DMX cables. If you are making your own cables, be sure to use standard 110-120 Ohm shielded cable (This cable may be purchased at almost all pro lighting stores). Your cables should be made with a male XLR connector on one end and a female XLR connector on the other. Also remember that DMX cable must be daisy chained and cannot
be split.
14
Page 15
DMX SETUP
Notice: Be sure to the gures below when making your own cables. Do not use the ground lug on
the XLR connector. Do not connect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding the shield could cause a short
circuit and erratic behavior.
Special Note: Line Termination. When longer runs of cable are used, you may need to use a terminator on the last unit to avoid erratic behavior. A terminator is a 110-120 ohm 1/4 watt resistor which is con­nected between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector (DATA + and DATA -). This unit is inserted in the female XLR connector of the last unit in your daisy chain to terminate the line. Using a cable terminator (ADJ part number Z-DMX/T) will decrease the possibilities of erratic behavior.
5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors: Some manufacturers use 5-pin DMX-512 data cables for DATA trans­mission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin DMX xtures may be integrated into a 3-pin DMX line with a 5-pin to 3-pin adapter cable. These adapters are readily available at most electronics stores. Follow the chart
below for a proper conversion.

Page 16
DMX SETUP
DMX Addressing:
All xtures should be given a DMX starting address when using a DMX controller, in order to ensure that the correct xture responds to the correct control signal. This digital starting address is the channel number from which the xture starts to “listen” to the digital control signal sent out from the DMX controller. The assignment of this starting DMX address is achieved by setting the correct DMX address on the digital control display on the xture.
You can set the same starting address for all xtures or a group of xtures, or set different addresses for each individual xture. Setting all xtures to the same DMX address will cause all xtures to react in the same way; in other words, changing the settings of one channel will affect all the xtures simultaneously.
If you set each xture to a different DMX address, each unit will start to “listen” to the channel number you have set, based on the quantity of DMX channels of each xture. That means changing the settings of one channel will only affect the selected xture. For instance, when this unit is set to 3 Channel mode, you should set the starting DMX address of the rst unit to 1, the second unit to 4 (1 + 3), the third unit to 7 (1 + 3 + 3), etc...

POWER CORD DAISY CHAIN
This feature allows the xtures to be linked via the IEC input and output sockets.
The maximum number of xtures that can be connected in this manner is as follows:
• 7 xtures maximum for 120V
• 14 xtures maximum for 230V
After this maximum number of xtures has been linked, a new power outlet must be used for any additional xtures. All linked xtures should be of the same make and model type. DO NOT mix x-
tures.

ALTERNATE LIGHTING INSTALLATION
One of this system’s special features is the ability to mount two light effects on top of the T-bar. These lights can then be powered by plugging the power cords directly into the bar, with power sockets lo­cated on the right side and left side. There is also a middle power socket for power cord daisy chain-
ing only. Do not use the middle power socket to power your added lights.
To add the lights onto the top of the T-bar, rst make sure that the T-bar is secure and set up on the
stand correctly, then follow the instructions below.
1. Unscrew the black knob that is attached to the bolt.
2. Use the mounting bracket on the lighting effect to attach the lighting effect to the bolt on the T-bar.
3. Screw the black knob back in and tighten. See the sample pictures below.
4. Plug the mounted lights into their respective power jacks.

FUSE REPLACEMENT
Locate and remove the unit’s power cord, then locate the fuse holder inside the power socket. Insert a at-head screw driver into the power socket and gently pry out the fuse holder. Remove the bad fuse and replace with a new fuse of the same rating. Please note that the fuse holder has a built-in socket
for a spare fuse. Make sure not to confuse the spare fuse for the active fuse.
CLEANING
Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust, cleaning the internal and external optical lenses must be carried out periodically to optimize light output. Periodically use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe
down the outside casing.
Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the xture operates (i.e. smoke, fog residue,
dust, dew).
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Listed below are a few common problems the user may encounter, with possible solutions.
Unit does not respond to DMX:
Check that the DMX cables are connected and wired correctly (pin 3 is “hot”; on some other DMX devices pin 2 may be “hot”). Also, check that all cables are connected to the right connectors, as the
order in which the inputs and outputs are connected can affect the operation of the device.
Unit does not respond to sound:
• Quiet or high pitched sounds will not activate the unit.
• Make sure that Sound Active mode is activated.
