DMX512 CONNECTION
• At last unit, the DMX cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120Ω 1/4W resistor between
pin 2(DMX-) and pin 3(DMX+) into a 5-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last unit.
• Connect the unit together in a `daisy chain` by XLR plug from the output of the unit to the input of the
next unit. The cable cannot branched or split to a `Y` cable. DMX 512 is a very high-speed signal. Inadequate or damaged cables, soldered joints or corroded connectors can easily distort the signal and shut
down the system.
• The DMX output and input connectors are pass-through to maintain the DMX circuit, when one of the
units’ power is disconnected.
• Each lighting unit needs to have an address set to receive the data sent by the controller. The address
number is between 0-511 (usually 0 & 1 are equal to 1).
• The end of the DMX 512 system should be terminated to reduce signal errors.
• 5 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+), Pin 4/Pin 5: Not used.

APPENDIX A
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
TROUBLESHOOTING
Following are a few common problems that may occur during operation.
The unit does not work - light and fan do not turn on
• Check the connection of power and main fuse.
• Measure the mains voltage on the main connector.
Not responding to DMX controller
• DMX LED should be on. If not, check DMX connectors, cables to see if link properly.
• If the DMX LED is on and no response to the channel, check the address settings and DMX polarity.
• If you have intermittent DMX signal problems, check the pins on connectors or on PCB of the unit or the
previous one.
• Try to use another DMX controller.
• Check if the DMX cables run near or run alongside to high voltage cables that may cause damage or
interference to DMX interface circuit.
CLEANING
The cleaning of internal must be carried out periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends
on the environment in which the fixture operates damp, smoky or particularly dirty surrounding can cause
greater accumulation of dirt on the fixture’s optics.
• Clean with soft cloth using normal glass cleaning fluid.
• Always dry the parts carefully.
• Clean the external optics at least every 30 days.

Fan Speed and Control
All Vari-lite and Strand lighting luminaires will be governed by the same Fan
speed v Noise levels v Maximum power output rules as details below. These
noises related to these levels will confi rm to Noise Criteria levels details of
which are contained within the document.
There are 3 control parameters can be selected separately or in conjunction
when permitted to manage Fan speed v Noise levels v Maximum power output.
NOTE: Not all fi xture have all modes or functions refer to DMX map and User
interface menu tree to see if you product has one of more of these functions.
Item 1 - Fan ‘v’ Output Preset Modes
These modes are selectable at either / or the fi xtures DMX control channel or
via the fi xture user interface screen. The section of the modes works in conjunction with Items 3 and will also active or deactivate the Item 2.
Boost mode – LED output boosted to >120% of standard output fan speeds
increased manage heat level of LED (may be limited to only run for XXhrs).
Fixture will not exceed NC45 – NC55 sound levels in this mode
Standard mode - Full LED Output + Fan Spin at top speed (loudest setting).
Fixture will not exceed NC40 sound levels in this mode
Studio Mode - Fan speed reduced to appropriate amount to reduce dB levels
>10% of full speed + LED @ max output approximately 80% of Standard output
at appropriate level to ensure LED work at optimum temperature and output
e ciency (fan speed remains at a constant speed and do not ramp up or
down) NC35
Whisper mode - Fan speed reduced to appropriate amount to reduce dB levels
to >30% of the full speed + LED Max output approximately 60% of Standard
output at appropriate level to ensure LED work at optimum temperature and
output e ciency (Fan speed remains at a constant speed and do not ramp up
or down) NC25
Silent Mode – ideally Fans do not spin + output capped at appropriate level to
ensure LED work at optimum temperature and output e ciency (Fan should
never switch on in this mode or change speed if they on) NC15 target level.
