5. Technical specifications
5.1. Change internal Fuse
Push the out the fuse-holder with a screwdriver. Change the fuse only with one of the exact same
type. Push the fuse-holder back on its origin position and connect the mains cable to the socket again.
5.2. Link devices
You need 3-pin DMX cables to realize a lightshow with one or more devices. However you can run the
devices also by master/slave control. The maximum quantity of devices, in this mode, is given by the
maximum usable channels of DMX512. The addition of all fixture channels must not be higher than
the maximum channels of DMX512.
Important: Devices, which are controlled by DMX512, are connected by a serial cable. For a
proper operation, the EIA-485 provides, to run not more than 32 devices in one DMX
line. If want to use more than 32 devices, you need to use a DMX-splitter.
Maximum recommended link distance: 500m
Maximum recommended devices in on DMX line: 32
10 / 21
6. DMX Data Cable
Only use a cable, which is conform to the RS-485 standard. Standard microphone cable cannot
transfer DMX signal correct over long distances. The cable should fulfill following requirements:
2 conductors + ground (3-pole)
Maximum capacity between conductors 30pF/ft.
Maximum capacity between conductor and ground 55pF
Maximum electric resistance 20 Ohm/1000ft
nominal impedance 100 – 140 Ohm
6.1. Cable-connectors
The cables must have a male DMX connector on one side, and a female on the other side.
Pin-assignment:
Attention: Avoid contact between “common” and the ground of the device. This could produce a
ground loop and your device could react irrationally. Test the function of the cables
with a cable-tester before usage.
6.2. 3-pole to 5-pole adapter
If you use a controller with 5-pole output, you need a 3-pole to 5-pole adapter. The list below shows a
possible configuration.
Conductor
3-
pole female (output)
5-
pole male (Input)
ground Pin 1 Pin 1
Data (-) Pin 2 Pin 2
Data (+) Pin 3 Pin 3
Do not use Pin 4
Do not use Pin 5
11 / 21
7. Configuration of Connection
1. Connect the 3-pole connector of the DMX cable with the 3-pole output of the controller.
2. Connect the female connector of the cable with the input of the first device.
3. Then go on by connecting the output of the device with the input of the next device.
12 / 21
8. Master/Slave linking the devices
1. Connect the 3-pole connector of the DMX cable with the 3-pole output the first device.
2. Then connect the output of the second device with the input of the third device.
3. Then go on by connecting the output of the each device with each input of the next device.
9. Setup
9.1. Orientation
The fixture can be used in every position, as long as enough ventilation is given.
9.2. Rigging
It is important that the ventilation doesn´t get limited. Only use fitting “C”- or “O”-clamps for hanging
devices. Loosen the clamps, adjust the angle of the devices and tighten the clamps again.
• Select the place for rigging, that you are able to change the illuminant, respectively to maintain
the device.
• Always use safety steel cables.
• Never place the device at locations, where it is exposed to rain, high temperature changes or
humidity.

13. Mode of operation
13.1. Stand alone mode (Auto Mode)
This mode allows to use the device without DMX-controller by pre-programmed movement, included
two speed options.
1. To configure the device for fast auto-mode, choose “NAFA”. The display shows “FASt”.
2. To configure the device for slow auto-mode, choose “NASL”. The display shows “SLoW”.
13.2. Master/Slave mode
This mode allows to link up to 32 devices and to use them without DMX-controller.
1. Use standard DMX-cables to connect the devices to each other. It could be useful to use a
DMX-terminator after last device in the DMX-line.
2. Set the first device in the DMX-line as master. Choose “NAFA/NASL” or “NStS”, depending on
which program you want to use.
Master auto “NAFA” or “NASL”
Master sound to light “NStS” (SrUn appears in the display).
3. Set all the other devices to slave mode. Select “SLAv” in the menu with the “UP/DOWN”
buttons. They will react like the master.
Slave “SLAv” will be shown as “Son” in the display.
13.3. DMX mode
In this mode you can control the device by every usual in trade DMX controller. The default address is
“001” and will be shown in the display as “d001”. Adjust the the addresses of the devices according to
the addresses which are adjusted at the controller.
