To avoid condensation to be formed inside, allow this unit to adapt to the surrounding
temperatures when bringing it into a warm room after transport. Condense sometimes
prevents the unit from working at full performance or may even cause damages.
3) Heat
The apparatus should be located away from heat sources such as radiators, stoves or
other appliances that produce heat. Don not use it when maximum ambient temperature is higher than 40°C.
4) Ventilation
Do not block areas of ventilation opening. Failure to do could result in re. Always
install according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
5) Object and Liquid Entry
Objects do not fall into and liquids are not spilled into the inside of the apparatus for
safety.
6) Power Cord and Plug
Protect power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two poles; a
grounding-type plug has two poles and a third grounding terminal. The third prong is
provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not t into your outlet, refer to an
electrician for replacement. Unplug the unit when it is not used for a longer time.
7) Power Supply
In case of external power supply, the apparatus should be connected to the power supply only of the type as marked on the apparatus or described in the manual. Failure to
do could result in damage to the product and possibly the user. Unplug this apparatus
during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
8) Electrical Connection
Always disconnect from the power source before servicing or replacing fuse and be
sure to replace with same fuse size and type. Cut off power before moving, repairing
and cleaning the unit. Improper electrical wiring may invalidate the product warranty.

2. OVERVIEW
Lightblaster LED blinders series combines the benets of LED technology (energy saving, reliability and durability over time) with lighting requirements in the photographic,
television and stage industry. The design is very essential and functional; the chassis
is completely metal to facilitate the cooling of light sources. Programming and setting
are extremely simple, and DMX512 allows these blinders to be remote controlled. All
PARs are equipped with color temperature regulation system, which allows you to mix
cold and warm white (3200 - 6500K) depending on your needs. The advanced cooling
system reduces fan noise according to the internal temperature and allows them to be
used even in situations where low noise is required. The advanced dimmer system pro-
vides various adjustment curves to t the device to different requirements. Finally, the
absence of icker and dithering allows the use in television studios. The xtures come
with 100W COB LEDs (50W CW + 50W WW) with high brightness and durability

The earth must to be connected! Pay attention to the safety! Before taking
into operation for the rst time, the installation has to be approved by an
expert.
5. DMX CONNECTION
DMX xtures are designed to receive data through a serial Daisy Chain. A Daisy Chain
connection is where the DATA OUT of one xture connects to the DATA IN of the next
xture. The order in which the xtures are connected is not important and has no effect
on how a controller communicates to each xture. Use an order that provides for the
easiest and most direct cabling.
DMX Termonator
DMX use of 3-Pin XLR Connectors
OUTPUTINPUT
DMX 512
Unit 1 Unit 2 Last Unit
3-Pin XLR
Pin 1: GND
Pin 2: DMX Pin 3: DMX +
Connect xtures using shielded 2-conductor twisted pair cable with 3-pin XLR male to
female connectors. The shield connection is pin 1, while pin 2 is Data Negative (S-), and
pin 3 is Data positive (S+).
CAUTION: Wires must not come into contact with each other; otherwise the
xtures will not work at all, or will not work properly.
5.1. DMX Terminator
DMX is a resilient communication protocol, however errors still occasionally occur.
In order to prevent electrical noise from disturbing and corrupting the DMX control
signals, a good habit is to connect DMX output of last xture in the chain to a DMX
terminator, especially over long signal cable runs.
The DMX terminator is simply an XLR connector with a 120Ω (ohm), 1/4 Watt resistor
connected across Signal (-) and Signal (+), respectively, pins 2 and 3, which is then

illustrated below.

resistor
Complimentary signal cable can transmits signals to 20 unit xtures at most.
Signal amplier is a must to connect more xtures.
5.2. 3-Pin vs 5-Pin DMX cables
DMX connection protocols used by controllers and xtures manufacturers are not standardized around the world. However, two are the most common standards: 5-Pin XLR
and 3-Pin XLR system. If you wish to connect MOOD 185 WASH to a 5-Pin XLR input
xture, you need to use an adapter-cable or make it by yourself.
