5. How To Control The Unit

You can operate the unit in three ways:

1. By master/slave built-in preprogram function

2. By easy controller

3. By universal DMX controller

5.1 Master/Slave Built-in Preprogram Function

Linking the units as the diagram, select show for the first unit (master) and set other units to

slave1 or slave 2 via menu. The master unit will control the other units to give an automatic,

sound activated, synchronized light show. This function is good when you want an instant

show.

2-light show

In slave mode, slave 1 means the unit run as the master unit and slave 2 means 2-light

show. In order to create a great light show, you can set slave 2 on the second unit to get

contrast movement to each other, even if you have two units only.

5.2 Easy Controller

The easy remote control is used only in master/slave mode. By connecting

to the 1/4” microphone jack of the first unit, you will find that the remote

controller on the first unit will control all the other units for Stand by,

Function and Mode selection.

SW-90 RGBW

5.3 Universal DMX Controller

5.3.1 Connection

1. If you using a controller with 5 pins DMX output, you need to use a 5 to 3 pin

adapter-cable.

2. At last unit, the DMX cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 ohm

1/4W resistor between pin 2(DMX-) and pin 3(DMX+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it

in the DMX-output of the last unit.

3. Connect the unit together in a `daisy chain` by XLR plug from the output of the unit to

the input of the next unit. The cable can not branched or split to a `Y` cable. DMX 512 is

a very high-speed signal. Inadequate or damaged cables, soldered joints or corroded

connectors can easily distort the signal and shut down the system.

4. The DMX output and input connectors are pass-through to maintain the DMX circuit,

ATTENTION

Termination reduces signal errors and to avoid signal transmission problems and

interference. It is always advisable to connect a DMX terminal (Resistance 120

ohm 1/4W between pin2 (DMX-) and pin3 (DMX+) of the last fixture).

when power is disconnected to the unit.

5. Each lighting unit needs to have an address set to receive the data sent by the

controller. The address number is between 0-511 (usually 0 & 1 are equal to 1).

6. The end of the DMX 512 system should be terminated to reduce signal errors.

7. 3 pin XLR connectors are more popular than 5 pin XLR.

3 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+)

5 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+)

Pin 4/5: Not used.

5.3.2 Channel Mode Setting

Enter menu mode, select Channel Mode, press ENTER button to confirm, present channel

mode will blinking on the display, use UP and DOWN button to select Mode1 (4 channels

mode) or Mode 2 (5 channels mode) or Mode 3 (7 channels mode), press ENTER button to

store. Press MENU button back to the last menu or idling one minute to exit menu mode.

5.3.3 Address Setting

If you use a universal DMX controller to control the units, you have to set DMX address

from 1 to 512 so that the units can receive DMX signal.

Press MENU button to enter menu mode, select DMX Address, press ENTER button to

confirm, the present address will blinking on the display, use UP and DOWN button to

adjust the address from 0 to 512, press ENTER button to store. Press MENU button back to

the last menu or idling one minute to exit menu mode.

Please refer to the following diagram to address your DMX512 channel for the first 4 units.

6. Troubleshooting

Following are a few common problems that may occur during operation. Here are

some suggestions for easy troubleshooting:

A. The unit does not work, no light and the fan does not work

1. Check the connection of power and main fuse.

2. Measure the mains voltage on the main connector.

3. Check the power on LED.

B. Not responding to DMX controller

1. DMX LED should be on. If not, check DMX connectors, cables to see if link properly.

2. If the DMX LED is on and no response to the channel, check the address settings and

DMX polarity.

3. If you have intermittent DMX signal problems, check the pins on connectors or on PCB

of the unit or the previous one.

4. Try to use another DMX controller.

5. Check if the DMX cables run near or run alongside to high voltage cables that may

cause damage or interference to DMX interface circuit.

C. Some units don’t respond to the easy controller

1. You may have a break in the DMX cabling.

2. Check the LED for the response of the master/ slave mode signal.

D. No response to the sound

1. Make sure the unit does not receive DMX signal.

2. Check if the sound sensitively is too low.

E. One of the channels is not working well

1. The cable connected to the PCB may broken.

7. Fixture Cleaning

The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out

periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in

SW-90 RGBW

18-

which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or particularly dirty surrounding can cause greater

accumulation of dirt on the unit’s optics.

y Clean with soft cloth using normal glass cleaning fluid.

y Always dry the parts carefully.

y Clean the external optics at least every 20 days. Clean the internal optics at least every

30/60 days.
