Ion 280F is a beam moving head wered by the famous Os­ram Sirius® HRI 280W lamp. Thanks to its advanced optical
system, this moving head achieves a razor-edge 1.3º beam
angle, defining notoriously its beam. With a luminous flux
of 170.000 Lux @ 32 . the fixture easily stands out on larg­er-scale stages and in the most demanding applications.
Ion 280F sports 14 dichroic filters + open, 14 static & index­able gobos, frost filter and an 8-facet rotating prism. Last
but not least - thanks to its 3 phase motor - Ion 280F is ca­pable of extremely fast & precise movements.

5. DMX connection and
DMX protocol

DMX addressing:

The device is controlled by universal DMX 512 protocol,
DMX address is the start channel used to receive instruc­tions from the external controller. For independent con­trol, each fixture must be assigned its unique address con­trol channels. For example, this device has four channel
modes: 11/13, if we set the mode at standard 13 channels
mode, and there are several models need to be inde­pendently controlled, we just simply address first fixture
at 1, and second fixture at 12, third one at 23, etc.
If the devices have the same address, they will behave syn­chronically.
DMX addressing is limited, don’t set the address so high
that without enough control channels for the fixtures.
Display is flashing when no DMX signal is received.

OUTPUT INPUT

Pin 1:GND
Pin 2: Signal (-)
Pin 3: Signal(+)

This device is equipped with 3-pins DMX in and out sockets only.
