THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING GENARAY
The Genaray Square Sun LED light fixture provides
photographers and videographers with ultra-bright yet soft
continuous light. This 1024-LED fixture can operate on AC
or battery power, and it features flicker-free dimming from
100% to 10% with broad 120-degree coverage. The built-in
diffuser and the recessed placement of the LEDs within
the fixture contribute to a bright and punchy light that
also has a soft wraparound quality. This design eliminates
the multiple shadows that are often associated with LED
lighting.
The Square Sun supports DMX-512 so the light’s settings
can be remotely controlled from a DMX console. It has 512
selectable channels and a 3-pin XLR output jack to daisy
chain other DMX-compatible lights.
Square Sun fixtures come in a heavy-duty metal chassis
that can withstand the most demanding professional
environments. For compatibility in the studio, the
integrated yoke can be mounted to a light stand with a
baby-pin stud or a junior-pin receiver.

Mount the SS-12 on any heavy-duty light

POWERING THE SS-12
The SS-12 can be powered directly
from an AC outlet or by two V-mount
batteries (not included).
USING THE SS-12 WITH AC POWER
Important
The SS-12 is a multivoltage fixture
capable of running on 100–240 V,
50/60 Hz. The included cable has a 120 V,
50 Hz (North American) plug. To use this
fixture with other voltages, you must
use a plug adapter (sold separately).
Connect the AC power adapter to the
SS-12 with the 4-pin XLR cable, and
plug the power cable into an outlet.
The AC adapter comes in a mounting frame
that fits into one of the V-mounts. Align
the adapter with one of the V-mounts,
and slide it into the mount until it clicks.
To remove the AC adapter, press the
V-mount release button, and slide
the adapter off of the V-mount.
USING THE SS-12 WITH
BATTERY POWER
The SS-12 is powered by two V-mount
batteries. To operate the SS-12
on battery power, both V-mount
batteries must be attached.
When attaching the batteries, make sure
the power switch is in the Off position, and
the fixture is not plugged into a wall outlet.
Three-stud batteries can be used by
connecting them to the SS-12 with
D-tap power cables (not included).

USING DMX
ADJUSTING BRIGHTNESS AND
COLOR TEMPERATURE
Open the barndoors, and power the
SS-12 on. The LCD screen will show
the last setting that was used.
After powering on the SS-12, set the
brightness and color temperature by
rotating the knobs on the back of the fixture.
· Color temperature can be adjusted from
3200 to 5600 K in 100 K increments.
· Brightness can be adjusted from
100% to 10% in 1% increments.
For quieter operation, turn the fan
off via the fan on/off switch.
Note
When the fan is turned off, the maximum
brightness will be capped at 80%.
The SS-12 supports DMX-512 so the
light’s settings can be remotely controlled
from a DMX lighting control console.
To setup DMX operation on the
SS-12, follow these steps:
1. Use a 3-pin XLR cable to connect a DMX
controller to the SS-12 DMX input jack.
2. Use the SS-12 DMX output jack
to connect multiple lights.
3. To set the DMX address on the
SS-12, press the dimmer knob
to activate DMX mode.
4. Turn the knob to select a DMX address.
Important
Make sure the DMX address on the
SS-12 matches the DMX console.
Press the dimmer knob again to
return to brightness control mode.
