DESCRIPTION:

1. HANGING BRACKETS: Fix one bracket at each extremity of the bar by using the 2 knobs. You can now

fix a mounting hook (or fast clamp) in each bracket hole so you can hang the unit in the truss.

2. 35mm POLE STAND ADAPTER: can be used to install the unit directly on a light stand

3. DMX OUTPUT: 3pin female XLR-connector used to connect the bar with the next unit in the DMX chain.

4. DMX INPUT: 3pin male XLR-connector used to connect universal DMX-cables. This input receives

instructions from a DMX-controller (in DMX mode) or from the previous bar (in Master/Slave mode).

5. M-DMX INPUT: Please note that this USB-connector is NOT used for updates or to connect the unit to a

PC! Instead this USB-connector makes it very easy to add wireless DMX to the unit! Just add the
(optional) WTR-DMX DONGLE from BRITEQ® and you will get wireless DMX! Moreover you will be able
to connect other DMX-controlled equipment to the DMX-output so you can share the wireless DMX
function with all connected units! No extra settings to be made in the setup menu, just follow the
procedure in the user manual supplied with the WTR-DMX DONGLE from BRITEQ®. The separate

WTR-DMX DONGLE is available from WWW.BRITEQ-LIGHTING.COM (order code: 4645)

6. MAINS LINK OUTPUT: you can use a special IEC power cable to connect this output with the mains

input of the next bar or projector for easier linking (Max. total load on one power line = 10A)

7. MAINS INPUT: IEC socket with integrated fuse holder, connect the supplied mains cable here.

8. INTERNAL MICROPHONE: is used to synchronize the sound controlled shows to the beat of the music.

9. SENSITIVITY KNOB: turn this knob anti-clockwise to decrease the sensitivity or turn it clockwise to

increase the sensitivity of the integrated microphone.

10. DISPLAY: shows all the necessary information about settings and working modes.

11. CONTROL PANEL: Used to select the different functions of the bar, see further to learn how to operate

the unit.

OVERHEAD RIGGING

• Important: The installation must be carried out by qualified service personal only. Improper

installation can result in serious injuries and/or damage to property. Overhead rigging requires
extensive experience! Working load limits should be respected, certified installation materials
should be used, the installed device should be inspected regularly for safety.

• Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during rigging, de-rigging

and servicing.

• The device should be installed out of reach of people and outside areas where persons may walk by or be

seated.

• Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10times the device’s

weight.

• Always use a certified safety cable that can hold 12times the weight of the device when installing the unit.

This secondary safety attachment should be installed in a way that no part of the installation can drop
more than 20cm if the main attachment fails.

• The device should be well fixed; a free-swinging mounting is dangerous and may not be considered!

• Don’t cover any ventilation openings as this may result in overheating.

• The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by

an expert before using them for the first time. The installations should be inspected every year by a skilled
person to be sure that safety is still optimal.
