Operation:
Built-in programmes:
To activate the units built-in programmes, press the “MODE” button to show “01.STATIC” on the LCD screen. Press the “ENTER” button to choose between the 4 built-in programmes by using the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons. Now press the “ENTER” button to select the desired speed and adjust by using the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons. Press the “ENTER” button once more to select the desired ash value and adjust by using the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons.
Speed values: 00 - 99 (00 = slow, 99 = fast) Flash values: 00 - 99 (00 = slow, 99 = fast)
Programme 1 - Static colour
In this mode you can set the 60W Tri Par to any colour and any brightness. When you are in the “01.STATIC” mode, press the “ENTER” button to change the brightness of each individual colour.
The “R” represents Red, “G” = Green, “B” = Blue and “F” = strobe. The two digits after it are the brightness 00 to 99 or in “CF” they are the strobe speed.
Example: If you set R, G, and B all to zero, the 60W Tri will have no LEDs showing (blackout). If you set R to 99 and G, and B to zero the 60W Tri will be 100% Red.
Programme 2 - 7 colour change
In this mode the 60W Tri Par will run through its 7 preset colours.
Programme 3 - 3 colour change
In this mode the 60W Tri Par will run through its 3 colours.
Programme 4 - colour fade
In this mode the 60W Tri Par will fade through its 7 preset colours.
2. Dimmer Response
Press “MODE” until you get to “Dimmer Response”, press the “ENTER” button and use the “UP/DOWN” buttons to choose between Dimmer Response 01 or 02.
01 = Dimmer curve linear response LED 02 = Dimmer curve linear response Halogen
3. DMX Channel Mode
Press the “MODE” button until “Channel” is shown on the LCD display. Press the “ENTER” button and use the “UP/DOWN” buttons to select between 3 and 5 channel modes.
4. Slave Mode
To activate the unit in slave mode, rst you must link multiple units together and press the “MODE” button to show “SLAVE MODE” on the LCD screen. Now on the master unit press the “MODE” button to select the desired mode and the slave units will now run in sequence with the master unit.
5. Sound Active Mode
To activate the units sound active mode, rst press the “MODE” button until the “SOUND SENS” is displayed. Press “ENTER” and use the “UP/DOWN” buttons to change the amount of sensitivity between 00 and 31.
6. DMX Mode
To enter the DMX mode, press the “MODE” button to show “DMX MODE” on the LCD display. Now press the “ENTER” button and use the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons to select the DMX address from 001-512.
When you are happy with your setting, press the “ENTER” button to conrm it.

DMX-512:
• DMX (Digital Multiplex) is a universal protocol used as a form of communication between intelligent xtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions form the controller to the xture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from xture to xture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX xtures (most controllers only have a data “out” terminal).
DMX Linking:
• DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of different manufactures to be linked together and operate from a single controller, as long as all xtures and the controller are DMX compliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several DMX xtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. The order in which xtures are connected in a DMX line does not inuence the DMX addressing. For example; a xture assigned to a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle. When a xture is assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to address 1 to that unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.
DATA Cable (DMX cable) requirements (for DMX operation):
• The 60W Tri Par 64 be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The DMX address is set on the back of the unit. Your unit and your DMX controller require a standard 3-pin XLR connector for data input/output (gure 1).

Also remember that DMX cable must be daisy chained and cannot be split.

Notice:
• Be sure to follow gures 2 & 3 when making your own cables. Do not connect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behaviour.
Special Note: Line termination:
• When longer runs of cable are used, you may need to use a terminator on the last unit to avoid erratic behaviour.
Using a cable terminator (part number CABL90) will decrease the possibilities of erratic behaviour.
5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors:
• Some manufactures use 5-pin XLR connectors for data transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-Pin XLR xtures may be implemented in a 3-pin XLR DMX line. When inserting standard 5-pin XLR connectors in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used. The Chart below details the correct cable conversion.
Termination reduces signal transmission problems and interferance. it is always advisable to connect a DMX terminal, (resistance 120 Ohm 1/4 W) between pin 2 (DMX-) and pin 3 (DMX+) of the last fixture.
