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.

Electrical installationfor 1 standalone unit:

 Just insert themains cable. The unit starts working immediately in stand-alone mode

Remark: You can connect a CA-8 remote controller to the unit if you want to have more control. Refer to section “C”to learn how to do this.

Electrical installationfor twoor more unitsin master/slave:

 Connect 2 to maximum 16 units together using good quality balanced microphone cables (like for

example JB Systems ref. 7-0063). The unit that has no cable connected to its DMX-input will react as “master”,the others are the slaveunits.

 Make sure that all units are connected to the mains.  Done!

Remark: You can connect a CA-8 remote controller to the master unit if you want to have more control over the master/slave operation. You can also connect the LEDCON 01 remote controller, in this case all units willrespondequally(all units havethe samecolor)

Electrical installation for two or more units in DMX-mode:

 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 units with a good quality balanced cable (ex. JB Systems ref. 7-0063).

 To prevent strange behavior of the

light effects, due to interferences, you must use a 90Ω to 40Ω terminator at the end of the chain. Never use Y-splitter cables, this simplywon’t work!

 Make sure that all units are connected to the mains.  Each light effect in the chain needs to have its proper starting address so it knows

which commands from the controller it has to decode. In the next section you will learn how to set the DMX addresses.

How to settheDMX addresses:

There are 2 ways to set the DMX-address ofthe units

A. Setting individual DMX-addressesperprojector:

 Make sure the DMX cables of all units areconnected.  Connectthe first unit to a universalDMX controller.  Connectall units to the mainsso they are switched on.  Set all DMX-channels on your DMX-controller to zero (value 000).  Set the DMX-channel, that you want to assign as DMX-start

address on you projector,tot maximum(value 255)

 Press the “Auto DMX address” button(7) on the projector shortly.  If you want to set another projector to the same DMX-start

address,simplypress it’s “AutoDMX address” button(7) and it will receivethe same address.

 Done!

An exampleto make things clear:

We will set the DMX start address of a projector to 106:

 Connect the projector to the DMX-controller as described above and make sure all is switched

on.

 Set all DMX-channels on the controllerto zero (000)  Now setDMX-channel 106 tomaximum (255)  Press the “Auto DMX address” button(7) on the projector shortly.  Done!  Your projectornowhas DMX address 106!

B. Automatic DMX-addressing, startingfromany givenstart address:

To save a lot of time (imagine the time it takes to set the DIP switches of 16 units…) you can set the DMX addresses of all units in the DMX-chain just by the push of a button. No need to calculate the starting address of each individual unit, this will be done for you!

000).

 Set the DMX-channel, that you want to assign as DMX-start

address on you projector,tot maximum(value 255)

 Press the “Auto DMX address” button(7) on the first projector in the chain for about 5seconds.  Done!  The first projector in the chain will receive the DMX-start address you chose and it will

automatically calculate and program the DMX addresses ofall the other unitsin the DMX-chain!

An exampleto make things clear:

We want to set the DMX-addresses of 16 units, the DMX start address of the first projector must be 202:

 Connect all projectors to the DMX-controller as described above and make sure all are switched

on.

 Set all DMX-channels on the controllerto zero (000)  Now setDMX-channel 202 tomaximum (255)  Press the “Auto DMX address” button (7) on the first projectorin the chain forabout 5seconds.  Done!  The first projector in the chain will receive DMX-start address 202 and it will

automatically calculate and program the DMX addresses of all the other units in the DMX-chain! This means that the 2ndprojector automatically receives address 206, the 3rdhas address 210, …, untilthe 16thprojectorwho automatically receivesstart address 262.

You justprogrammed 16 projectors,this took you about 10seconds!!!

Remark: you can mix the units with other DMX-effects that don’t have the automatic DMXaddressing option. In that case you still have to set the DMX-addresses of these DMX-effects manually!

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 shouldbe used, theinstalled device shouldbe inspected regularlyfor safety.

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

andservicing.

 The deviceshould be installed out of reach of peopleand 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 than20cm if the main attachmentfails.

 Thedevice should be well fixed; a free-swinging mountingis dangerous and maynot beconsidered!  The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installationsare approvedby

an expert before using them forthe first time. The installations should be inspectedevery year by a skilled person to besure that safety is still optimal.

 3 different fixing methods are possible:

 Fixed to ALU truss: use anoptional truss clamp.  Fixedto wall or ceiling: use 2 adapted screws to fix the base plate (5) to a wall orceiling.  On a horizontal surface:just fix the unit on the includedbase plate (5) and put it on a stable, horizontal

surface.
