FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS
DESCRIPTION
The FXLD1012C4I is a PAR style RGBW LED lighting fixture. It is suitable for stage, disco, night club, and other artistic applications. It has several stand alone control modes and can operate via a DMX­512 external signal. A double yoke enables it to be operated in several positions.
INSTALLATION
LOCATION
The FXLD1012C4I is rated IP20 and is intended for
INDOOR USE ONLY.
Locate the unit in a well ventilated area away from moisture and heat. Holes are provided on the yoke to install a lighting bar pipe clamp. A safety cable should also be used.
POWER CONNECTIONS
The FXLD1012C4I has a line cord for connection to a 120 VAC, 15 Amp, 60Hz, grounded service.
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
CAUTION
The safety ground pin on the power cord must be used.
DMX CONNECTIONS
A system using DMX control should be connected as a chain of devices. In other words the control signal cable should proceed from the controller to the first receiving device and then to others in a continuous "daisy chain" fashion.
The fixture has a DMX IN and a DMX OUT connector to be used to connect the chain. The control cable should NOT be split into a multiple run star arrangement with a cable running from the controller directly to each receiving device pack.
DMX CONNECTOR PIN ASSIGNMENTS
There are two different connectors which can be used for DMX control. They are both XLR type connectors. Some units use 3 pin connectors. Others use 5 pin connectors. The FXLD1012C4I receives a DMX signal on the 3 pin MALE connector on the back of the unit. The 3 pin FEMALE connector is used to connect the next DMX device on the control chain. If your console uses a 5 pin connector you can make up an adapter cable to accommodate this. The table below shows the pin assignments for BOTH the 3 pin and 5 pin connectors.
DMX TERMINATION

installing a commonly available 1/4 Watt, 120 Ohm resistor across the DATA - and DATA + wires at the last device. If you have only a few fixtures very close together and a very short run to the controller then you may be able to operate without the terminator.
