2. Avoiding damage
Do not point the front of the fixture towards the sun or other strong light sources. Strong
light can cause internal damage to the fixture, melting components or starting an
internal fire within seconds.
Figure 1. Avoiding damage from light sources
Damage can occur whether the fixture is powered on or off. See Figure 1. Damage
can also occur if the light hits the front of the fixture at an angle: the fixture does not
need to be pointing directly at the sun or other light source.
To avoid problems from strong light sources:
• Do not expose the front of the fixture to sunlight or any other strong light source.
• For outdoor applications during daylight, make sure that the front face of the fixture
is shielded or points away from the sun, even when not in use.
• Avoid pointing other high-powered beam lights directly at the fixture.
Do not pick up or carry the fixture by the head. The LCD display is also fragile. Picking
up or supporting the fixture in these spots could result in damage that is not covered by
the warranty.
Use only original spare parts. Do not make any structural modifications to the fixture or
you will void the product warranty.
Clean optical components only as directed. Oils, solvents, and other chemicals
commonly used for cleaning can damage the lens coatings and surfaces.
Do not drop the fixture or expose it to mechanical stress.
Do not expose the fixture to heat (from other lighting fixtures for example).
Transportation and storage
Transport the fixture either in a flightcase or in its original packaging to protect it from
damage caused by shocks during transportation.
Store the fixture in a dry location when not in use.

4. Features
The impression JDC1 from GLP represents a whole new class of moving head
combined strobe/color effect lighting fixture. It delivers unprecedented levels of bright,
cool white light output combined with a full-face color wash panel that uses 1320 highquality RGB LEDs. The strobe tube and the color panel can each be split into 12
segments with individual control, and the whole array can be fully pixel mapped
through any standard controller. Strobe and color effects can be controlled
separately, but they can also be combined for stunning strobe, blinder and wash
effects. The JDC1 also features a fast-action moving head with 16-bit control and a
185° tilt range.
The JDC1 is designed for permanent or temporary indoor use. It can be used outdoors
if it is protected from moisture and precautions are taken to prevent damage from
direct sunlight. It may be placed upright on a level surface or suspended from a
suitable structure as described this manual.
The JDC1 is not suitable for household use, for use in any location where unattended
children have access to it, or for use in permanent outdoor installations.
Beam
The JDC1 features a traditional central single-tube element, the Beam, containing 216
cool white LEDs that produce powerful white light.
You can run powerful shutter effects (including a strobe at up to 16.67 Hz) and
dynamic FX patterns on the Beam, or you can operate it continuously to give highoutput blinder and wash effects with an 86° beam angle. If you set an intensity on the
Beam, it will be used as the background intensity if you run a shutter effect or FX
pattern on the Beam.
You can control the Beam as one unit or divide it into 12 segments that you can use as
separately controllable pixels.
Color Plates
The JDC1 has two RGB color panels – the Plates – on either side of the central Beam
tube. Each Plate contains 660 RGB LEDs.
You can run a wide range of color effects including shutter / strobe effects and
dynamic FX patterns on the Plates, or you can operate them continuously using RGB
color mixing to provide a wide (148°) color wash. If you set a color mix on the Plates, it
will be used as the background color if you run a shutter effect or FX pattern on the
Plates.
You can control the Plates as one unit or divide them into 12 segments that you can
use as separately controllable pixels.
DMX control modes
Five DMX control modes are available in the JDC1. All five modes offer the same
functions on DMX channels 1-14. DMX Mode 1 offers the standard functions on
channels 1-14 only, while DMX Modes 2-5 offer additional functions using additional
DMX channels.
12 JDC1
User Manual Rev. 3.0
Page 13
German Light Products®
The following DMX modes are available:
• DMX Mode 1 (Compressed Pro) uses 14 DMX channels. It gives the following control
options that are used as standard in all DMX modes:
- 16-bit control of tilt, allowing the head to be tilted through 185°, using channels 1
and 2.
- Beam shutter effects (strobe, ramp up/down etc.) with variable intensity, duration
and rate using channels 3-6.
- Adjustment of a range of fixture settings from the DMX controller using the Special /

Pixel grouping
The JDC1 gives two LED pixel grouping options, depending on which DMX mode the
fixture is in:
• Control of the Beam as one unit and control of both the Plates as one unit (see
Figure 3).
• Control of the Beam as 12 separate pixels and control of the Plates as 12 separate
pixels (see Figure 4).

German Light Products®
Pixel Orientation
Figure 4 on the previous page shows the default pixel layout on the Plates. The default
pixel orientation setting is:
• Pixel Orientation = OFF (Normal)
• 2nd Plate pixel Orientation = OFF (Normal).
You can invert pixel orientation by either sending a DMX command on the Special
/Control DMX channel 7 or using the Settings menu in the control panel. Inverting pixels
lets you set up symmetrical effects in multiple fixtures quickly without the need to
reprogram cues.
See Figure 5. You can invert the order of all the pixels on the Plates and the pixels in the
Beam by setting pixel orientation to ON (Inverted). Inversion status in the control panel
display will change from NNN (tilt, pixel orientation and 2nd Plate pixel orientation all
Normal) to NIN (tilt Normal, pixel orientation Inverted, 2nd Plate pixel orientation
Normal) and the pixel layout will be as shown below:
Figure 5. Pixel orientation = ON (Inverted), 2nd Plate pixel orientation = OFF (Normal)
See Figure 6. You can invert the order of the pixels on only the second Plate by setting
only 2nd Plate pixel orientation to ON (Inverted). Inversion status in the control panel
display will be NNI and the pixel layout will be as shown below:
Figure 6. Pixel orientation = OFF (Normal), 2nd Plate pixel orientation = ON (Inverted)
JDC1 User Manual Rev. 3.0 15
Page 16
www.glp.de
See Figure 7. You can invert the order of all the pixels on the Plate and at the same
time invert the order of the pixels on the second Plate by setting Pixel orientation to ON
(Inverted) and 2nd pixel orientation to ON (Inverted). Inversion status in the control
panel display will be displayed as NII and the pixel layout will be as shown below:
Figure 7. Pixel orientation = ON (Inverted), 2nd Plate pixel orientation = ON (Inverted)
Tilt
The head tilts through 185° with coarse and fine control channels and self-correcting
position feedback.
Using the control panel, you can disable tilt position feedback and you can invert tilt
direction. Inverting tilt is a fast way of creating symmetrical effects in multiple fixtures.
You can also set tilt operation to one of three options:
• Enabled with DMX control.
• Disabled.
• Enabled but without DMX control. In this setting, power is applied to the tilt motor
but the fixture will not respond to movement commands sent via DMX. The tilt motor
will therefore act as a brake and hold the head in position.
Barndoor tilt operation
If you mount barndoors or any other accessory on the front of the fixture, set Barndoors
to ON either on the Special / Control channel using DMX or in the Tilt menu using the
control panel. Barndoor tilt operation reduces tilt speed to avoid any damage that
could be caused to barndoors, if fitted, by sudden tilt movements.
Auto-Blackout
To avoid any possibility of unexpected behavior from a powerful strobe in the middle
of a show or event, you can use the Shutter menu in the control panel to set the fixture
to black out automatically if it detects an internal error. If this happens, the error will be
listed in Information – System Errors in the control panel.
You can also set the fixture to black out automatically if more than three seconds
passes without the fixture receiving a valid DMX signal.
16 JDC1
User Manual Rev. 3.0
Page 17
German Light Products®
Custom settings and factory defaults
The Init Positions menu in the control panel lets you replace the fixture’s factory default
settings with any custom settings (DMX Mode, pixel orientation, etc.) that you have
stored using the control panel or via DMX. If you apply an Init Positions – Save
command, the fixture will return to these custom settings after a power off/on cycle or
after a reset.
You can delete all saved custom settings at once and return to the factory default
settings using an Init Positions – Reset command.
Dimming curves
See illustration on right. Three dimming curves are
available: Linear, Soft, and Extra soft. You can
select a curve using the control panel or using
the Special / Control DMX channel.
Behavior when a DMX signal is lost
You can choose how the fixture behaves if it is
receiving a DMX signal but the signal stops. Three
options are available in the DMX Hold menu in
the control panel: the fixture can:
• black out immediately,
• fade down to a blackout, or
• continue obeying the last DMX command it received.
PWM frequency
You can adjust the PWM frequency of the LEDs from 582 to 618 Hz in 1 Hz increments, or
you can set the PWM frequency to 1200 or 2400 Hz.
Effect offsets
Effect offsets are a fast way to set up effect chases in multiple fixtures. You can set
effect offsets with starting points in the effect cycle from 10° to 360° in 10° increments.
You can set an offset for the Beam on channel 7 and set an offset for the Plates on
channel 11 in all DMX modes.
Any offset that you set will apply to the standard shutter effects available in all DMX
modes and also the FX patterns available in DMX Modes 2 and 3.
Flash control modes
The JDC1 offers three flash control modes that can be selected either in the control
menus or via DMX on the Special / Control channel:
In Normal flash control mode, you set the rate and duration of Beam and Plate flashes
on their respective rate and duration channels. If you increase the flash rate, the
duration of flashes will not change but the intervals between flashes will become
shorter. Normal flash control mode gives you full control over flash duration, but it
means that you may need to adjust flash duration if you change the flash rate.
JDC1 User Manual Rev. 3.0 17
Page 18
www.glp.de
In Percentage flash control mode, you set the duration of Beam and Plate flashes on
their respective duration channels as a percentage of the flash on/off cycle. Once
you have set this percentage, flash duration is automatically adjusted to match flash
rate. If you increase the flash rate, the duration of flashes will be reduced. Percentage
flash control mode makes it easy to control flashes using the rate channel only.
In Aggressive flash control mode, flash rate and duration are controlled as in Normal
flash mode, but if intensity on the Plates is below 100%, the extra available power is
pushed to the Beam LEDs. This gives an even more powerful Beam flash than in the
other flash modes.
If Plate LEDs are at zero intensity, enabling Aggressive flash mode will give maximum
Beam flash intensity. If you increase Plate intensity, Beam and Plate output will be
balanced to give the best performance. If you set Plate intensity to maximum, Beam
intensity will be the same as in Normal flash mode.
Flash Modes can be changed very quickly (hold for 0.5 seconds) by programming the
setting in the cue directly. This means that it is possible to swap between flash modes in
the middle of a show.
Dimmer flash control mode
Producing single flashes is quick and easy if you activate Dimmer Flash mode in the
Settings control menu. Activating this mode affects both the Beam and the Plates.
With Dimmer flash mode enabled, if the Shutter channel (6 for the Beam and 10 for the
Plates) is set to zero, any new DMX value that you input on the Intensity channel (3 for
the Beam and 8 for the Plates) will produce a single flash on the Beam or Plates. In
effect, all you need to do is 'nudge the dimmer fader' to produce a flash.
FX
DMX Modes 2 and 3 include pre-programmed FX on channels 15-19. The FX are
dynamic patterns that are superimposed onto the Beam and/or the Plate LEDs.
Normally, all the Beam or all the Plate pixels flash at the same time. But when you
select an FX, only the pattern pixels flash.
The following control options are available via DMX when using FX:
• Select FX pattern and speed for the Beam
• Select FX pattern and speed for the Plates
• Adjust crossfade time (fade time between FX pattern and background).
For tables showing all the patterns available on the Beam and the Plates, see pages 60
and 65.
18 JDC1
User Manual Rev. 3.0
Page 19
German Light Products®
Plate color priority
The JDC1 lets you set an RGB color for strobe flashes and FX patterns that are
superimposed on the Plates as well as setting an RGB color for the background on the
Plates. You can choose from three options that define how strobe flash and FX pattern
colors are superimposed over background colors using the settings available via DMX
on channel 7:
• FX Pattern Priority: A strobe flash or FX pattern on the Plates will always use the
FX/flash color and override the plate background color.
For example, if you have created a 100% intensity red FX or flash and a 50% intensity
green background, the FX or flash will always be visible as 100% intensity red over a
50% intensity green background.
• Color Mix: A strobe flash or FX pattern on the Plates will mix with the plate
background color using additive color mixing. The color of the FX pattern or flash will
change if you adjust the FX pattern / flash color, and it will also change if you adjust
the plate background color.
For example, if you have created a 100% intensity red FX or flash and a 50% intensity
green background, the FX or flash will appear as 100% intensity yellow over a 50%
intensity green background.
• Background Color: An FX pattern or flash on the Plates will only be visible if no
background color is set on the Plates. If a background color is set on the Plates, the
FX pattern or flash will use the plate background color.
For example, if the fixture is in Background Color mode and you have:
- created a 100% intensity red FX or flash, and
- created a 50% intensity green background,
then the FX or flash will be not visible: you will only see the 50% intensity green
background. However, if you dim the background intensity down to zero, you will
see the 100% intensity red FX pattern or flash.
The Plate Color Priority settings can help you set up interesting effects when the Plates
are controlled as one pixel, but they can give even richer, more complex effects when
the Plates are controlled as twelve separate pixels. In Color Mix and Background Color
modes, setting different Plate pixels to different colors and intensities will affect the
appearance of any FX patterns or flashes that are superimposed on those pixels.
For example, if the fixture is in Background Color mode and you have:
• created a 100% intensity red FX or flash,
• set even-numbered pixels (2, 4, 6, etc.) to zero intensity, and
• created a 50% intensity green background on odd-numbered pixels,
then the FX or flash will only be visible on the even-numbered pixels. On the oddnumbered pixels you will only see the 50% intensity green background.

Display
The illuminated graphic LCD display with self-charging battery lets you change fixture
settings even when the power is off. See Chapter 6 for settings, readouts, and related
information.
You can adjust the contrast and brightness of the display in the Display menu in the
control panel. You can also invert the display for easier reading if the fixture is flown
head-down in a rig, and you can set the display to flash if the DMX signal to the fixture
is lost, giving a discreet indication of DMX signal status.
Cooling modes
Cooling fans can be set to one of two modes:
• Auto for temperature-regulated operation. This mode optimizes cooling for
quietness.
• High for constant high-speed operation. This mode minimizes the possibility that the
fixture will reduce its light output if it exceeds thermal safety limits. This will normally
only happen when the fixture is worked hard for extended periods in high ambient
temperatures.
Fixture information
The Information menu in the control panel gives access to a long list of information
items. You can see a list of any internal errors that the fixture may have detected,
check main and distributed software and hardware versions, check temperature
sensor readouts, see logs of operating hours and boot count and check whether the
fixture is running on AC mains or battery power.
You can monitor the DMX values being received on the main DMX channels, and you
can monitor cooling fan operation.
Manual control
The Manual Control menu in the control panel lets you reset the entire fixture, reset tilt
only, or reset left or right LED drivers only. It also lets you control the main functions of
the fixture without DMX.
Test sequences
The Test menu lets you run test sequences to ensure correct operation of Tilt movement
only, color output from the RGB LEDs on the Plates only, or the entire fixture.
Service menu
The Service menu is password-protected and is intended for use by GLP Service.
Clamp attachment
The base provides Camlock attachment points for easy fastening of an omega clamp
attachment bracket that accepts two half-coupler clamps.

5. Preparation for use
Warning! Read ‘Safety’ starting on page 5 for important safety information
that you must understand before you install or operate the fixture.
Included items
The JDC1 is supplied with a power cord with Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 connector and
an omega bracket (Part No. 87036) that lets you fasten two half-coupler rigging
clamps to the fixture.
Mounting
Figure 8: Mounting options (safety cable not shown)
The JDC1 may be rigged in any orientation or placed on a level surface. When
installing, keep the head at least 1 m (3.3 ft.) from flammable materials including
curtains and stage scenery.
JDC1 User Manual Rev. 3.0 21
Page 22
www.glp.de
Mounting upright on a level surface
The JDC1 may be placed upright on a level surface.
Make sure that persons cannot accidentally touch the
fixture when it is installed.
See illustration on right. You can align fixtures side by
side by inserting the alignment pins (arrowed) on the
right-hand side of one fixture into the holes on the lefthand side of the next fixture.
Figure 9: Alignment pins
Suspension or horizontal/angled truss mounting
You can fasten the JDC1 to a rigging truss with the head hanging vertically
downwards, or you can fasten the JDC1 to a truss horizontally or at any angle. To
fasten to a truss:
Bolt two suitable half-coupler rigging clamps to the supplied omega clamp
attachment bracket.
Figure 10: Camlock sockets
See illustration above. Fasten the omega bracket to the base of the fixture with
four Camlock quarter-turn fasteners by lining up the pins in the fasteners with the
keyways in the sockets, inserting the pins into the sockets and turning a full 90°
clockwise to lock them.
Fasten the rigging clamps securely around a chord on a rigging truss or similar bar.
Secure as directed below.

Securing with a safety cable
If the fixture can cause injury or damage if it falls, secure it with a secondary
attachment such as a safety cable that is approved for the weight of the fixture as
soon as you have fastened it in position.
To secure the fixture:
See illustration below. Attach a safety cable to the safety cable attachment point
in the fixture base and loop it around the truss chord or bar so that it will hold the
fixture if one or both of the rigging clamps fail. Take up as much slack as possible in
the safety cable (by looping it more than once around a truss chord, for example).
Figure 5: Safety cable attachment point
Make sure that the fixture is secure and that the head will not collide with any
objects when it tilts.
Connecting to power
The AC mains power supply must include a connection to ground / protective earth. It
must be protected against ground / earth leakage and overload. The autosensing
power supply accepts AC power at 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz. Do not connect the fixture to
power at any other voltage or to an external dimmer.
The JDC1 does not have a power ON/OFF switch. Power is applied to the fixture as
soon as the power cable becomes live.
The JDC1 has a 3-conductor Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 socket that accepts AC power
from a TRUE1 female cable connector. Although TRUE1 connectors support hotplugging, it is still good practice to shut down power to power cables or move Power
ON/OFF switches to OFF before connecting power cables to fixtures.
To connect the fixture to power:
If possible, shut down power to the power input cable.
See Figure 2 on page 11. The Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 AC mains power input
socket is located on the base of the fixture. Note the position of the keys and
keyways on the TRUE1 connectors. Line them up carefully, then connect the power
input cable to the power input socket by inserting the cable connector and
twisting clockwise to lock.
JDC1 User Manual Rev. 3.0 23
Page 24
www.glp.de
Check that the head is unlocked and can move freely and check that nobody is
looking directly into the front of the fixture. Apply power to the fixture by energizing
the power cable.
To disconnect the power cable, pull the latch on the cable connector outwards to
release it, then twist the connector counterclockwise and remove it from the socket.
Installing power connectors
It is possible to install a cord cap / mains power plug that is suitable for your local
convenience receptacles / mains power sockets on the supplied power input cable. If
you do this, check that the cord cap / plug is rated minimum 250 V, 16 A, that it has a
connection to ground / earth and that it has an integral cable grip. Follow the cord
cap / plug manufacturer’s assembly instructions.
If you need to install a Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 connector on a power cable, follow
the instructions given in the Support area of the Neutrik website at www.neutrik.com.
Respect the color coding used in the supplied power cable and in your local mains
power wiring system. US and EU systems use the color coding shown below:
Live or L Neutral or N
Ground / Earth or
US system Black White Green
EU system Brown Blue Yellow/green
Main fuse
See Figure 2 on page 11. The main fuse sits in a holder in the base.
If the fixture appears to be completely shut down even though power is applied, the
main fuse may have blown. Disconnect the fixture from power before replacing the
fuse. Replace only with a fuse of the same type and rating.

Connecting to a DMX control data link
The JDC1 provides 5-pin XLR IN and THRU sockets for connection to a USITT DMX512
data link.
Connectors use standard DMX pinout:
• Pin 1 = Ground
• Pin 2 = Negative / data cold
• Pin 3 = Positive / data hot.
• Pins 4 and 5 are not used.
If you would like any advice with planning and installing a DMX link, your GLP supplier
will be happy to provide assistance.
Starting and stopping operation
Warning! Before you apply power to the fixture or operate it after a
blackout, make sure that nobody is looking directly into the front glass from
close to the fixture.
Check that the tilt lock has been released before operating the fixture.
The JDC1’s TRUE1 AC mains power input connector supports hot-plugging, and it can
be quickest to disconnect a live power cable if you need to shut down power urgently,
but it may still be wise to show caution and connect and disconnect power cables
without power applied. Apply power to the AC mains circuit to start operation. Shut
down power to the AC mains circuit to stop operation.
Transportation and Storage
We strongly recommend that you transport the JDC1 either in a flightcase or in its
original packaging to protect it from damage caused by shocks during transportation.
Lock the head in the horizontal position for transport by sliding the tilt lock lever to the
locked position. The position of the tilt lock lever is shown in Figure 2 on page 11.
When the fixture is not installed, disconnect it from power and store it in a dry location.

11. Cleaning and maintenance
WARNING! Any service operation that requires removal of a cover must be
performed by a professional service technician with the necessary tools,
skills and personal protective equipment to maintain high-powered
lighting equipment safely and efficiently.
Suggested maintenance intervals
The cleaning schedule depends on the operating environment. The intervals below are
suggestions from our experience with typical installations. Adjust as necessary.
Maintenance task Interval How
Front glass Weekly Soft cloth and glass cleaning fluid

Cleaning
JDC1 components require occasional cleaning to prevent the buildup of dust, dirt,
and smoke fluid residue. Pay special attention to the air vents and glass plate. Failure
to keep the fixture clean will significantly reduce light output and may cause damage.
Regular cleaning will ensure maximum performance and reliable operation.
You can clean the front glass with household or automotive glass cleaning products.
