GANTOM 7: COMPACT SEVEN COLOR DMX SPOTLIGHT

USER GUIDE

The Gantom 7 packs seven-color output into a tiny package. With a native 15 degree beam angle, this
LED spotlight produces a punchy yet soft beam with homogeneous color mixing even at a close distance.
Included micro-lens diffusers and the magnetic accessory holder offer easy beam control solutions;
diffusing the spotlight to a floodlight is literally a snap. Native DMX control and a balanced, non-linear
dimming curve satisfies the most demanding theming tasks. This compact spotlight features lime,
amber, and ultraviolet beyond the common RGBW to achieve colors unavailable in standard LED
fixtures. With the Gantom 7, lighting designers obtain a virtually unlimited color palette in a compact
and efficient 7-Watt LED fixture. The Gantom 7 is configured using our DMX Programmer app, available
free for Apple and Android devices.
Features

o Full spectrum output with 7 LED colors. Multiple color profiles selectable (RGB, RGBA, RGBW,

RGBAWUv, RGBAWLUv).

o Color control via DMX512 or DMX Programmer app.
o Precision-tuned non-linear dimming curve and color balance algorithm.
o Standalone mode allows set and forget operation without DMX signal (requires DMX

Programmer app).

o DMX address and configuration stored in memory.
o Low voltage and minimal heat for improved safety over incandescent sources.
o Internal constant current driver gives highly efficient and consistent output.
o Minimal maintenance required with over 50,000 hour lamp life.
o Indoor and outdoor use.

Available Models

The Gantom DMX is available in full color RGBW or Dynamic White. It is also available as either a Spot or
Flood light.

POWER AND WIRING REQUIREMENTS

The Gantom 7 has a maximum fixture wattage of 7.5W and an operating voltage of 12V DC. For
recommended power supplies check http://www.gantom.com/power-supplies/

Gantom’s standard DMX controllable light fixtures have a 2.1mm DC barrel jack for power and a 3.5mm
TRS jack for the control signal. Additionally, screw terminal adapters are included with every fixture to
simplify custom wiring. You can screw bare wires directly into these adapters

Rather than using a typical XLR cable for carrying the DMX signal, standard
Gantom fixtures use 3.5mm TRS cables. Gantom makes an XLR 5 Pin to 3.5mm
TRS adapter (product number CB51) that is perfect for connecting Gantom
products to an XLR based DMX environment.

The Gantom 7 is also available in our Gantom Pro configuration. This version has a single locking
connector which combines both power and data into one cable. This version is compatible with our G8
Power/Data Distribution Box and Pro Cable system. A single cable for power and data greatly simplifies
installation and the locking connector gives a secure connection for long term use. The Gantom Pro
series is recommended for permanent installations.

CONFIGURING THE LIGHT FIXTURE

The Gantom 7 is programmed and configured using the free DMX Programmer App by Gantom. In
addition to setting the DMX starting address for the fixture, the app allows you to save a default color
and brightness for standalone operation of the light fixture if the application does not require any DMX
control.

What you need:

o An Android or iOS device for running the Gantom Programmer app. Please note that a

headphone port is required to connect to the device to the fixture. The iPhone7 does work
with, but you will need to use the headphone port adapter that is included with the phone.

o A male-to-male 3.5mm audio 3.5mm cable. This is the same type of cable that you would use to

connect your Android or iOS device to headphones or to an AUX port.

o Power supply for the fixture. All Gantom fixtures accept 12v DC power. We recommend using

one of our PowerPak Mini units if you are just going to power a single fixture.

o The free DMX Programmer app by Gantom. This can be found by searching “Gantom” in iTunes

for an Apple device or Google Play for an Android device

o If you have a Gantom Pro series fixture, you will also need the CB107 programming adapter

cable

First, open the DMX Programmer app by Gantom. The app will open to
the screen you see here. From this screen, select Generic Console.

The app will then provide you instructions on how to connect the light
fixture to the tablet or smartphone. Please note the order in which the
cables should be connected. First connect the headphone cable to the
light fixture and to the tablet/smartphone. Next, connect the power to

the fixture. When prompted by the app, tap the “Next” button and you

will be taken to the control screen.
