FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS
DESCRIPTION
The FXLE30C4N is a four color LED ellipsoidal fixture that is suitable for stage, houses of worship, entertainment venues and other artistic applications. It has automatic stand-alone control modes and can operate via an external DMX-512 signal.
A mounting yoke enables the fixture to be installed and operated in various positions and orientations.
INSTALLATION
LOCATION
Locate the unit indoors in a well-ventilated area away from moisture or heat. Maintain a minimum spacing of 20" between the unit and other objects. The maximum ambient operating temperature is 40ºC (104ºF). Keep the vent holes clear. Holes are provided on the yoke to install a traditional lighting C-clamp for mounting on batten pipe. Use a safety cable attached to the safety eye when hanging the fixture.
GOBO/FX SLOT ALIGNMENT
To rotate barrel, loosen the two 3mm hex socket head screws on both sides of body behind the shutter handles. Then loosen both adjustment knobs at top and bottom of fixture behind the shutter handles. Once GOBO or FX slot is aligned, retighten screws and knobs.
LENS TUBE ADJUSTMENT
To focus beam, loosen the knobs at top and bottom of the barrel, extend/retract tube as needed for intended beam and tighten knobs. Support lens tube in process.
YOKE ADJUSTMENT
To slide yoke along track, loosen 4 screws on both side brackets with #2 Phillips screwdriver, adjust yoke and retighten screws once in desired position.
POWER CONNECTIONS
The FXLE30C4N has a blue turn and lock 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 approx. 1/8 turn clockwise to latch it. Do not power the unit from a dimmer pack. The white turn and lock connector on the unit is used to pass power on to another FXLE30C4N unit. A mating white connector is also provided.
The safety ground pin on the power cord must be used.
When using 120VAC, only connect a maximum of four FXLE30C4N fixtures together with power connectors.

DMX CONNECTIONS
A system using DMX control should be connected as a chain of devices. In other words, the control signal cable should originate at the controller to the first receiving device and then to others in one continuous chain. An optically isolated DMX splitter is recommend when installing the FXLE30C4N in a system with various other DMX devices.
The FXLE30C4N has a DMX IN and a DMX OUT connector which are used to connect the DMX data chain. The control cable can NOT be split into a Y or multiple run/star arrangement with a cable running directly from the controller to each receiving device.
DMX CONNECTOR PIN ASSIGNMENTS
Predominantly two connectors are used for connecting fixtures and other DMX devices to a DMX control chain. They are both “XLR type” connectors. Some units use 3 pin connectors, others use 5 pin
unit. This interface is used to set the operating options and settings. It consists of a backlit LCD display and four buttons (MODE, DOWN, UP and ENTER).
Use MODE to scroll through the available choices. The current setting for the option will be shown. Use UP and DOWN until you reach the desired setting or mode then push ENTER to lock in the new setting.
In case of loss of power to fixture, the fixture will return to the last setting that was locked in with ENTER being pressed.
MENU OPTIONS
connectors. The FXLE30C4N receives a DMX signal on the 3 pin MALE connector on the rear of the unit.
MENU
Function
The 3 pin FEMALE connector is used to connect to the next DMX device on the control chain.
If your console uses a 5 pin XLR connector, an adapter cable can be purchased or fabricated to accommodate this conversion. The following table shows the pin assignments for both 3 pin and 5 pin XLR
connectors:

DMX TERMINATION
It is recommended that a DMX data chain 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 installed very close together and with a short run of DMX cable to the controller, then you may be able to operate without the terminator.
OPERATION
Power is applied once the power cord is connected to a live power source. There is not an on/off switch. Connect power cord to fixture first, then outlet. A display and user interface is located on the back of the

• Check the address settings or patch at the controller.
CLEANING
DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD BEFORE HANDLING THE UNIT.
A mild detergent can be used sparingly if needed. Apply to cloth only; do not apply directly to fixture. Do not use chemicals or solvents when cleaning the fixture. Ensure that the unit is dry before use.
REPAIR
The only FXLE30C4N user serviceable part is a 5 mm x 20 mm externally accessible fuse on the rear panel.
DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD BEFORE CHECKING OR REPLACING THE FUSE.
Replace fuse ONLY with 5.0 Amp, 250VAC, fast acting fuse. Requires #2 Philips head screwdriver to access. Use care to not overtighten.
Internal service on the unit by other than Lightronics authorized agents will void the warranty.
If service is required, contact the dealer from whom you purchased the item, or contact the Lightronics Service Department, 509 Central Drive, Virginia Beach, VA 23454. Tel: 757 486 3588.
