Gantom Precision DMX User Manual

PRECISION DMX USER GUIDE

The Precision DMX is the world’s smallest DMX controllable theatrical floodlight. This RGB fixture is

smaller than a fist yet packs comparable punch to traditional fixtures several times its size! No other
fixture on the market comes close to the compactness of this fixture with all the internal circuitry and
intelligence built in. The Precision DMX is a microprocessor based intelligent lighting fixture that can be
controlled to generate a wide range of vivid colors. Tunable preset functions allow the user to generate
various patterns without complex signaling. A built-in flicker generator can create unique and realistic
flame, surge, and lightning effects with ease. Standalone operation is achievable when the fixture is
configured with our free DMX Programmer iOS app, making the Precision DMX a fully color and effects
tunable floodlight that can operate without signal. The user simply sets the desired look of the Precision
DMX with the DMX Programmer iOS app and the output settings will be stored in the fixture’s memory.
Afterward, the Precision DMX may be unplugged from DMX signal and simply powered on; the fixture
will output according to the stored settings. This is an excellent feature for applications that need a fully
configurable light without DMX cabling.

POWER AND WIRING REQUIREMENTS

The Precision DMX has a maximum fixture wattage of 3.8W and an operating voltage of 12V DC. For
recommended power supplies check http://www.gantom.com/power-supplies/

Rather than using a typical XLR cable for carrying the DMX signal, the
Precision DMX 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 into an XLR based DMX environment.

Additionally, screw terminal adapters are included
with every fixture to simplify custom wiring. You
can screw bare wires directly into these adapters.
