Warning! Read safety information before connecting the Cyclone 1320 LED to AC
mains power.
Warning! For protection from electric shock,the Cyclone 1320 must be
grounded(earthed).The power distribution circuit must be equipped with a fuse or
circuit breaker and ground-fault(earth-fault)protection.
Warning!Socked outlets or external power switches used to supply the Cyclone 1320
with power disconnected from power.
Important!Do not use an external dimming system to supply power to the Cyclone
1320,as this may cause damage to the fixture that is not covered by the product
warranty.
Power Voltage
Warning!Check that the voltage range specified on the fixture serial number label
matches the local AC mains power voltage before applying power to fixture.
The Cyclone 1320 has an auto-ranging power supply that accepts mains power at
100-240VAC nominal,50/60Hz,do not apply AC mains power at any other voltage or
frequency to the fixture.
The Cyclone 1320 can draw significant peat currents during normal use,to avid
overload,allow one 16 or 20amp branch circuit per fixture to operate at full power,two
fixtures may be placed on a 16 amp branch circuit,but considerations for the type of
MCB(Miniature Circuit Breaker)must also be respected:16 A type C will fit most needs.
Power cable and Power plug
The Cyclone 1320 power input cable must meet the requires listed under Protection from
electric shock,keep cable runs as short as possible.
If you install a power plug on the power cable for connection to an AC power outlet,install a
grounding-type plug with an integral cable grip that is rated 250V,20A minimum,in the EU
the plug must be rated 250V,16A minimum,follow the plug manufactures instructions,the
table shows standard wire color-coding schemes and some possible pin identifications
schemes;if pins are not clearly identified,or if you have any doubts about proper
installation,consult a qualified electrician.

DATA link
Warning!Read safety information before installing,powering,
Operating or servicing the Cyclone 1320.
A DMX 512 date link is required in order to control the Cyclone 1320 via DMX.
The Cyclone 1320 has 3-pin XLR connectors for DMX data input and output,the pin-out
on all connectors is PIN 1=shield,PIN 2= Cold(-),and PIN 3=hot(+).
Note that if independent control of a fixture is required,it must have its own DMX
channels,fixtures that are required to behave identically can share the same DMX channels.
You may connect up to 4 Cyclone 1320 on one daisy
Chained DMX link,to add more fixtures when the above limit is reached,create a new DMX
universe and another daisy-chained link. Tips for reliable data transmission
Use shielded twisted-pair cable designed for devices:standard microphone cable cannot
transmit control data reliably over long runs.
Connecting the data link
To connect the Cyclone 1320 to data:
Connect the DMX data output from the controller to the closest Cyclone 1320 3-pin XLR
DMX input connector.
Installation
Overhead rigging
The installation of the device has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10
times the weight for 1 hour without any harming deformation.
The installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment,e.g. an
appropriate catch net,this secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that no
part of the installation can fall down if the main attachment fails.
When rigging, servicing the device staying in the area below the installation place,on
bridges,under high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are
approved by an expert before taking into operation for the first time and after changes before
taking into operation another time.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are
approved by an expert after every four year in the course of an acceptance test.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are
approved by a skilled person once a year.
Procedure:
The device should be installed outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated.
IMPORTANT:OVERHEAD RIGGING REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE,including(but not
limited to)calculating working load limits,installation material being used,and periodic safety
inspection of all installation material and the device,if you lack these qualifications,do not
8
attempt the installation yourself,but instead use a professional structural rigger,improper
installation can result in bodily injury and or damage to property.
The device has to be installed out of the reach of people.
If the device shall be lowered from the ceiling or high joists,professional trussing systems
have to be used,the device must never be fixed swinging freely in the room.
Caution:Device in hanging installations may cause severe injuries when crashing down!if
you have doubts concerning the safety of a possible installation,do NOT install the device!
Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10
times the devices weight.
DMX 512 control
Only use a DMX cable and 3-pin XLR plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller with
the fixture or one fixture with another.
Occupation of the XLR connection:
DMX-output DMX-input
XLR mounting-socket XLR mounting-plug
If you are using controllers with this occupation,you can connect the DMX output of the
controller directly with the DMX input of the first device in the DMX chain.If you wish to connect
DMX controllers with other XLR outputs,you need to use adapter cables.
Building a serial DMX chain:
Connect the DMX output of the first device in the DMX chain with the DMX input of the next
device,always connect one output with the input of the next device until all devices are
connected.
Caution:At the last fixture,the DMX cable has to be terminated,Plug the terminator with a 120
Resistor between Signal(-) and Signal(+) in the DMX output of the last fixture.
Connection with the mains
Connect the device to the mains with the power-Plug.
The occupation of the connection-cables is as follows:
