Installation
Before installing the xture, the supporting structure (ie. truss) must be able to hold a minimum of 10
times the xtures weight without any deformation (eg. 15kg - 150kg point load). The xture must be
secured with a secondary safety attachment when being installed (ie. an appropriate safety cable).
Never stand directly below the xture when mounting, removing, and/or servicing.
Overhead installation requires experience and qualications to calculate working load limits, the
material being used at the installation area and periodic safety inspections of the xture and installation
material. If you do not have the relevant experience and/or qualications please do not attempt the
installation yourself. The installation should be checked annually by a qualied person.
The eLumen8 Virtuoso 1000 Prole RGBAL can be operated in a number of mounting positions as
shown in the diagram above, hanging upside-down from the ceiling or truss, mounting sideways on truss
or stood upright on a at level surface. Always use a safety wire as an extra safety precaution to prevent
damage/injury in the event a clamp fails (see the next page for clamp installation).
Never use the carry handles for secondary attachments.

DMX setup
Setting the DMX address:
The DMX mode enables the use of a universal DMX controller. Each xture requires a “start address”
from 1- 512. A xture requiring one or more channels for control begins to read the data on the channel
indicated by the start address. For example, a xture that occupies or uses 7 channels of DMX and was
addressed to start on DMX channel 100, would read data from channels: 100, 101, 102, 103, 104,
105 and 106. Choose a start address so that the channels used do not overlap. E.g. the next unit in
the chain starts at 107.
DMX 512:
DMX (Digital Multiplex) is a universal protocol used as a form of communication between intelligent
xtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions form 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 manufactures 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, when using several DMX xtures try to use the shortest
cable path possible. The order in which xtures are connected in a DMX line does not inuence the
DMX addressing. For example; a xture assigned to 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):
This xture can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The DMX address is set on the back of the unit.
Your unit requires either a standard 3-pin or 5-pin XLR connector for data input/output,
see images below.
Further DMX cables can be purchased from all good sound and lighting suppliers or Prolight Concepts dealers.
Please quote:
Also remember that DMX cable must be daisy chained and cannot be split.

DMX setup
Be sure to follow the diagrams below when making your own cables.
Do not connect the cables shield conductor to the ground lug or
allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLRs
outer casing. Grounding the shield could cause a short circuit
and erratic behaviour.

Line termination:
When longer runs of cable are used,
you may need to use a terminator on
the last unit to avoid erratic behaviour.
Using a cable terminator will decrease
the possibilities of erratic behaviour.

Termination reduces signal
transmission problems and
interference. It is always
advisable to connect a DMX
terminal, (resistance 120

(DMX-) and pin 3 (DMX+) of
the last xture.

5-pin XLR DMX connectors:
Some manufactures use 5-pin XLR connectors for data transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin XLR xtures
may be implemented in a 3-pin XLR DMX line. When inserting standard 5-pin XLR connectors in to a
3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used. The diagram below details the correct cable conversion.

Multiple xture power linking
Power linking:
This xture provides power linking via the power output on the rear allowing multiple units to be
connected together. The maximum number of xtures that can be connected is 6 xtures @ 240V
or 3 xtures @ 120V (including the rst xture). After the maximum number of xtures are
connected a new power run will need to be started.
Please note: Caution should be used when power linking other xtures to the Virtuoso 1000 Prole as
the power consumption of other xtures will vary. Fixtures tted with lamps often require 2/3 times
more current on startup, these may require their own power source.
