SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:

This lighting fixture has left our factory in perfect condition. In order to
maintain this condition and to ensure safe operation, it is absolutely
necessary for the user to follow the instructions and caution notes written in
this user manual.
This fixture falls under protection-class 1. Therefore it is essential that the
device should be grounded.

111111 MAKE SURE TO PRESS

11t11THE MIDI/ADD BUTTON AFTER

A qualified person must carry out the Electrical connection (to power). If the

external “flexible” cable or power cord of this fixture is damaged, it HAS to

be and will be replaced by the manufacturer or service agent or a similarly
qualified person in order to avoid hazard or electrical shock.

Make sure that the available voltage is NOT higher than stated at the end of
this instruction guide / manual.

Make sure the power cord is NEVER “crimped” or damaged by sharp edges.

If it is – replacing a cable must be done by an authorized dealer trained in
electrical repair.

Always disconnect from electrical MAINS, when the 1018 Lumenator is NOT
in use or before cleaning it. Definitely before cleaning it.
You could wind up getting a severe electrical shock.

Only handle power cord by the PLUG.
Never PULL out the plug by tugging on the power cord.
Very strong possibility of getting serious electrical shock.

NEVER LOOK DIRECTLY INTO THE LIGHT FIXTURE WHILE IT IS
POWERED UP – SENSITIVE PEOPLE MAY SUFFER FROM EPILECTIC
SHOCK (far fetched) BUT IT COULD HAPPEN.

IMPORTANT:
Damage caused by the disregard of this user manual IS NOT SUBJECT TO
WARRANTY. The DEALER is not and will not ACCEPT LIABILITY for any
resulting defects or problems caused by not following instructions.
IGNORANCE is NOT A VALID WARRANTY ISSUE.

*** PLEASE MAKE NOTE:
The power cord has been deliberately left OFF as most IP65 FIXTURES
ARE USED OUTSIDE and are usually hardwired into APPROVED
OUTSIDE WEATHER-PROOF JUNCTION BOXES.

Do not plug into standard unprotected outlet, except for test purposes.

DMX-512 Control Connection

Product has a DMX Input fitted with 3-pin XLR outdoor connectors.
Screened cables in compliance with EIA-485 specifications and the
following characteristics MUST be used for connections.

- 2 Conductors plus screen

- 120 Ohm impedance

- Low capacitance

- Max. transmission rate 250 kBaud

DMX-512 Connection with DMX Terminator

For installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance or is

in an electrically “noisy” environment, such as a Dance Venue, it is

recommended to use a DMX Terminator. This helps in preventing

“ghosting signal” corruption of the original signal by electrical noise.

The DMX Terminator is simply an XLR plug with a 120 ohm resister
between pins 2 and 3, which is plugged into the output XLR socket of
the last fixture in the chain.

MAIN FUNCTIONS:

Axxx: Current DMX Address

A – Setting DMX Address using Buttons

1 – Press Enter Button when the display shows Axxx
Menu, then adjust the DMX address by pressing {UP}
or {DOWN} to get to desired Base address channel
number.

PRESS {ENTER} to confirm or {ESC} return to Menu

B – Setting DMX address by Controller

1 – Set the DMX Value of Channel 5 to 10-15, Channel 6 to

20-26, Channel 7 to 30-36, Channel 8 to 40-46. Then
the fixtures connected to the controller will enter the
address setting mode.

2 - Set the DMX value of Channel 1 from 0-59, then you will

see the first number of the address change ( Channel

1

value) 10. For example: when you set the value of
channel 1 to 20, the first DMX address number will be
2 (20/10=2)

3 – Set the DMX value of Channel 2 from 0-99, then you will

see the first number of the address change (Channel 2

value)/10.

For example: when you set the value of channel 2 to
30, the first DMX address number will be 2(30/10=3)

4 - Set the DMX value of Channel 3 from 0-99, then you will

see the first number of the address change (Channel 3

value) 10.
