DESCRIPTION
The FXLD1018FRP5I is a RGBWA LED lighting
fixture. It is suitable for stage, disco, night club, and
other artistic applications. It has several stand alone

A double yoke enables the fixture to be operated in
several positions.
INSTALLATION
LOCATION
The FXLD1018FRP5I is rated IP20 and is intended for
INDOOR USE ONLY.
Locate the unit in a well ventilated area away from
moisture and heat. Keep the vent holes clear. Holes
are provided on the yokes to install a lighting bar pipe
clamp. Use a safety cable when hanging the fixture.
POWER CONNECTIONS
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
CAUTION
The FXLD1018FRP5I has a blue powercon style
connector for power input. A compatible power cable
is provided for connection to a 120 VAC, 15 Amp,
60Hz, grounded service. Push the blue connector on
the cable straight into the blue connector on the unit
and twist aprox. 1/8 turn clockwise to latch it.
The white powercon style connector on the unit is used
to pass power on to another FXLD1018FRP5I unit. A
mating white connector is also provided.
Caution is advised since the line cord is rated for
aprox. 7 Amps maximum.
THE SAFETY GROUND TERMINAL ON THE POWER
CABLE 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 generally used for
DMX control. They are both XLR type connectors.
Some units use 3 pin connectors. Others use 5 pin. The
FXLD1018FRP5I has both. DMX can be received on
either the 3 pin or 5 pin MALE male connector on the
back of the unit. The 3 and 5 pin FEMALE connectors
are used to connect to the next DMX device on the
control chain.
The table below shows the pin assignments for BOTH
the 3 pin and 5 pin connectors.
DMX TERMINATION
PIN # SIGNAL NAME
1 DMX COMMON
2 DMX DATA 3 DMX DATA +
4 NOT USED
5 NOT USED
A DMX chain should be terminated at the last
receiving device on the chain. This is done by
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.
OPERATION
A control panel on the back of the unit is used to set
the operating options. It consists of an LED display
and four buttons
(MENU, UP, DOWN, and ENTER)
