DMX-512 Connection
The fixture is equipped with 3 pin XLR Sockets for DMX input and output. The sockets are wired in parallel. Only use a shielded
twisted pair cable designed for RS-485 and 3 pin XLR plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller with the fixture or
the fixture with another.

Caution!
At the last fixture the DMX signal needs to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120
Ohm resistor between the (-) and the (+) signal into a 3 pin XLR plug and plug it in to the
last fixture on the signal run. Pre-manufactured terminator plugs are available for
purchase from your Mega-Lite dealer (HOS-DMXT).

Rigging the fixture
Caution!
1. The installations must be carried out by an authorized dealer or trained professional.
2. Unit may cause severe injures if you have doubts concerning the safety do not install.
3. Unit is to be 24inches away from flammable materials (decoration material)
4. Use high quality installation equipment to hang unit.
When rigging a unit it is very important that you follow common safety procedures. Rigging requires extensive experience including but not limited to calculating working loads, material being used and periodic safety inspections. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself, instead use a professional structural rigger.
When rigging the unit always be secured with a secondary safety attachment. The installation location of the projector has got to
be built in the way that it can hold 10 times the weight for 1 hour with out any harming. Installation should be checked at least
one time a year by a skilled person.

Main Control Menu
The control board on the fixture base is your interface
to access and control all the functions on the unit. Its
dipswitch interface gives you a code view of the options. The following will explain each function and its
options.

For example, if you wish the first unit to start on address channel 85 you
will need to turn on dipswitch 1,3,5 and 7 (1+4+16+64=85)
Functions
Turn dipswitch 10 to the UP position. This function will turn on the functions that will allow the unit to run a preprogram function. Additionally, this
unit may serve as a master unit where other units will copy it’s functions.
To create a master unit connect the XLR cable from the output to the input on the next unit. And address the next unit as fixture 1.

Cleaning and maintenance
Installation Maintenance: The operator has to make sure that the unit is operating safely and has the installations and electron-
ics checked by an expert every 2 years.
The following points have to be considered during the inspection:
1) All screws used for installing the device or part of the device have to be tightly connected and must not be corroded.
2) There must not be any deformations on the housing, fixation and installation spots (ceiling, suspension, trussing).
3) The electronic power supply cables must not show any damages, material fatigue (e.g. porous cables) or sediments. Further
instructions depending on the installation spot and usage have to be adhered by a skilled installer and any safety problems
have to be removed.
Disconnect from mains before starting maintenance operation!
Caution Danger to life!
We recommend a frequent cleaning of the device. Please use a moist, lint free cloth. Never use alcohol or solvents!
1) The plastic cover will require periodic cleaning on usage and environment. Environment with foggers will require more periodic cleaning as fog fluid tends to build up residues, reducing the light output.
Note: There is no serviceable parts inside the device except for the LED’s. Maintenance and service operations are to be carried
out by authorized dealers.
Replacing the fuse: Only replace the fuse with the same type and rating.
Replacing the power cable: If the power cable of this device becomes damaged, it has to be replaced by authorized dealers only
In order to avoid hazards.
Should you have further questions , please contact your dealer.
