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.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION + ADDRESSING
Important: The electrical installation should be carried out by qualified personal only, according to the regulations for electrical and mechanical safety in your country.
Every time you turn the unit on, it will show [Led-RGBUYu] on the display and move all the motors to their
‘home’ position and you may hear some noises. After that the unit will be ready to receive DMX signal or run
the built-in programs.
YOU CAN OPERATE THE UNIT IN THREE WAYS:
o By master/slave built-in preprogram function o By universal DMX controller (5CH, 9CH and 15CH DMX mode) o By IR remote control
BY MASTER/SLAVE BUILT-IN PREPROGRAM FUNCTION:
Select this function when you want an instant show. By linking the units in master/slave connection, the
first unit will control the other units to give an automatic, sound activated, synchronized light show. Its DMX
input will have nothing plugged into it. The display will indicate “Sh 1, … Sh 4”.
Important! This function only works when the blackout mode in the menu of the master is set to
“no”, otherwise nothing will happen! Read more about this option in the “Main Menu” paragraph.
MASTER has 4 built-in shows: You can select show 1, show 2, show 3 or show 4 directly in the menu of the master.
SLAVES have 2 working options: The other units are set to slave mode. In order to create a great light show you can introduce contrast movements (pan/tilt of slave is inversed) In the menu of the
slave units you can go to option “SLMd” and select:
o “SLA1” Normal slave: slave works in sync with the master. o “SLA2” 2 light show: slave works in opposite with the master.
HOW TO CONNECT THE UNIT BY DMX
The DMX-protocol is a widely used high speed signal to control intelligent light equipment. You need to “daisy chain” your DMX controller and all the connected light effects with a good quality XLR M/F balanced cable. To prevent strange behavior of the light effects, due to interferences, you must use a 90Ω to 120Ω terminator at the end of the chain. Never use Y-
Electrical installation for several units on a DMX line:
Page 11
ENGLISH OPERATION MANUAL
JB SYSTEMS® 9/11 CLUBWASH MINI
Each light effect in the chain must have its proper starting address so it knows which commands from the controller it has to decode.
HOW TO SET THE RIGHT STARTING ADDRESS:
Refer to the previous chapter (DMX-512 address setting) to learn how to set the starting address on this unit. The starting address of each unit is very important. Unfortunately it is impossible to tell you in this user manual which starting addresses you have to use because this completely depends on the controller you will use… So please refer to the user manual of your DMX-controller to find out which starting addresses you must set.

MAINTENANCE
Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during servicing.
Switch off the unit, unplug the mains cable and wait until the unit has been cooled down.
During inspection the following points should be checked:
All screws used for installing the device and any of its parts should be tightly fastened and may not be corroded.
Housings, fixations and installations spots (ceiling, truss, suspensions) should be totally free from any deformation.
When an optical lens is visibly damaged due to cracks or deep scratches, it must be replaced.
The mains cables must be in impeccable condition and should be replaced immediately when even a
small problem is detected.
In order to protect the device from overheat the cooling fans (if any) and ventilation openings should be cleaned monthly.
The interior of the device should be cleaned annually using a vacuum cleaner or air-jet.
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 which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or particularly dirty surroundings can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the unit’s optics.
Clean with a soft cloth using normal glass cleaning products.
Always dry the parts carefully.
Attention: We strongly recommend internal cleaning to be carried out by qualified personnel!
