3.3 DMX 512 connection
The fixture is equipped with 5-pin XLR connectors for DMX input/output. Only use a shielded twisted-pair cable designed for RS-485 5-pin XLR- connectors in order to connect the controller with the fixture or one fixture with another.
Wiring of the XLR connectors: DMX input DMX output
XLR socket: XLR plug
To build a DMX chain
1. Connect the DMX output of the controller directly with the DMX input of the first fixture in the DMX chain.
2. Connect the DMX output of the first fixture in the DMX chain with the DMX input of the next fixture.
3. Always connect the DMX output with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are connected.
1 – Shield 2 - Signal (-) 3 - Signal (+) 4 – Not connected 5 – Not connected
Do not overload the link. Max. 32 fixtures may be connected on a DMX link.

Note: If you do not want to continue in the software update, you have to switch off and on the fixture to escape from the updating mode. We recommend to cancel all running programs on your computer before starting the software update.
5. Double-click the software uploader file (e.g. DSU_RobinCycBar15_17010625.exe) in the extracted files.
The Software Uploader program will start running.
6. Select correct "COM " number if you use a Flash cable RS232/DMX or select "Robe Universal Interface " if you
use the Robe Universal Interface/Robe Universal Interface WTX and then click on the "Connect" button.
7. If the connection is OK, click the “Start Uploading" button to start software uploading. It will take several
minutes to perform software update. If the option "Incremental Update" is not checked, all processors will be updated (including processors with the same software version). If you wish to update only processors with not topical versions of software, check the “Incremental Update box“. Avoid interrupting the process. Update status is being displayed in the "Info Box" window. When the update is finished, the line with the text “The fixture is successfully updated“ will appear in this window. In case upload process is interrupted (e.g. power loss), the fixture stays in “Updating mode” and you will have to repeat the software update again.
Another way, how to update software in the fixtures (especially large installation of fixtures) is to use the ROBE Uploader. It is a software for automatized software update of Robe and Anolis fixtures. It can take advantage of Ethernet ports and RDM support if present in the units.

8. RDM
This fixture is ready for RDM operation.RDM (Remote Device Management) is a bi-directional communications protocol for use in DMX512 control systems, it is the new open standard for DMX512 device configuration and status monitoring. The RDM protocol allows data packets to be inserted into a DMX512 data stream without adversely affecting existing non-RDM equipment. By using a special „Start Code,“ and by complying with the timing specifications for DMX512, the RDM protocol allows a console or dedicated RDM controller to send commands to and receive messages from specific moving lights. RDM allows explicit commands to be sent to a device and responses to be received from it. The list of commands for the CycBar 15 is the following.

10. Cleaning and maintenance
DANGER !
Disconnect from the mains before starting any cleaning or maintenance work
The front transparent cover will require monthly cleaning as smoke fluid tends to build up residues, reducing the light output very quickly. For cleaning use a wet clout or an air-jet. Do not use solvents or any other aggressive cleaning fluid. Maintenance and service operations are only to be carried out by a qualified person or ROBE service worker only. Should you need any spare parts, please use genuine parts.
10.1 Disposing of the product
To preserve the environment please dispose or recycle this product at the end of its life according to the local regulations and codes.
