VDPL300CB

• Familiarise yourself with the functions of the device before actually using it. Do not allow operation

by unqualified people. Any damage that may occur will most probably be due to unprofessional use of the device.

• All modifications of the device are forbidden for safety reasons. Damage caused by user modifications

to the device is not covered by the warranty.

• Only use the device for its intended purpose. All other uses may lead to short circuits, burns,

electroshocks, lamp explosion, crash, etc. Using the device in an unauthorised way will void the warranty.

• Damage caused by disregard of certain guidelines in this manual is not covered by the warranty and

the dealer will not accept responsibility for any ensuing defects or problems.

6. Installation

Mounting the device

• Have the device installed by a qualified person, respecting EN 60598-2-17 and all other applicable

norms.

• The carrying construction must be able to support 10 times the weight of the device for 1 hour

without deforming.

• The installation must always be secured with a secondary attachment e.g. a safety cable.

• Never stand directly below the device when it is being mounted, removed or serviced. Have a

qualified technician check the device once a year and once before you bring it into service.

• Install the device in a location with few passers-by that is inaccessible to unauthorised persons.

V. 01 – 05/07/2012 4 ©Velleman nv

VDPL300CB

• Overhead mounting requires extensive experience: calculating workload limits, determining the

installation material to be used… Have the material and the device itself checked regularly. Do not attempt to install the device yourself if you lack these qualifications as improper installation may result in injuries.

• Make sure there is no flammable material within a 0.5 m radius of the device.

• Have a qualified electrician carry out the electric connection.

• Connect the device to the mains with the power plug. Do not connect it to a dimming pack.

• The installation has to be approved by an expert before the device is taken into service.

DMX-512 connection

• When applicable, connect an XLR cable to the female 3-pin XLR output of a controller (not incl.) and

the other side to the male 3-pin XLR input [4] of the VDPL300CB. Multiple VDPL300CBs can be linked through serial linking. The linking cable should be a dual core, screened cable with XLR input and output connectors.

• Maximum recommended serial data link distance is 500 meters (1640 ft). Maximum recommended

number of fixtures on a serial data link is 32 fixtures.

• A DMX terminator is recommended for installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance

or is in an electrically noisy environment (e.g. discos). The terminator prevents corruption of the digital control signal by electrical noise. The DMX terminator is simply an XLR plug with a 120Ω resistor between pins 2 and 3, which is then plugged into the XLR output socket [5] of the last device in the chain.

7. Operation

The VDPL300CB can be used in the following modes:

• stand-alone mode: automatic or sound-activated

• master/slave

• with a DMX512 controller.

7.1 Control Panel Navigation

Access the control panel functions using the four panel buttons [2] located directly underneath the display [1]. From left to right:

Button Function

<MENU> used to access the menu or to return to a previous menu option <UP> scrolls through the menu options in ascending order <DOWN> scrolls through the menu options in descending order <ENTER> used to select and store the current menu or option within the menu

• The control panel display shows the menu items you select from the menu map. When a menu

function is selected, the display will show immediately the first available option for the selected menu function. To select a menu item, press <ENTER>.

• Use the <UP> and <DOWN> buttons to navigate the menu map and menu options. Press <ENTER>

to access the menu function currently displayed or to enable a menu option. To return to the previous option or menu without changing the value, press the <MENU> button.

7.2 Stand-alone mode

In stand-alone mode, the device runs one of the built-in programs: automatic or sound-controlled. To set the device to stand-alone mode:

1. Connect nothing to the DMX input [4] of the device.

2. Press <MENU> until <AXX> is displayed and press <ENTER>.

3. Use <UP> and <DOWN> to select a built-in program: From To Description

From To Description

A61 A69 Fade in and out, motor rotates from fast to slow A71 A79 Strobe mode, motor rotates from fast to slow So1 So1 Sound control, coloured lights and rotation So2 So2 Sound control, white light and rotation

7.3 Master/slave mode

The master/slave mode allows for connecting several devices to a single master device. All slave devices then work synchronously with the master device. You need to set one device to master mode and all other devices to slave mode.

1. Connect all devices in series with DMX cables.

2. The first unit in the chain functions as the master fixture. Set up the unit as described in Stand-

alone mode.

3. On each of the connected slave units, set the DMX starting address to <A001> as follows: press

<MENU> until <A001> is displayed and press <ENTER>. Use <UP> and <DOWN> to select <A001> and press <ENTER>.

4. Repeat for each slave unit.

7.4 DMX mode

This mode allows you to control the fixture by any universal DMX controller.

• All DMX-controlled devices need a digital start address so that the correct device responds to the

signals. This digital start address is the channel number from which the device starts to “listen” to the DMX controller. The same starting address can be used for a whole group of devices or an individual address can be set for every device.

• When all devices have the same address, all the units will “listen” to the control signal on one

particular channel. In other words: changing the settings of one channel will affect all devices simultaneously. If you set individual addresses, each device will “listen” to a separate channel number. Changing the settings of one channel will only affect the device in question.

• In case of the 6-channel VDPL300CB, you will have to set the start address of the first unit to 1

(CH1~6), the second to 7 (1 + 6) (CH7~12), the third to 13 (7 + 6) (CH13~18), and so on.

To set the device to work with a DMX controller:

1. Press <MENU> until <A001> is displayed and press <ENTER>.

2. Use <UP> or <DOWN> to set the DMX starting address (A001 ~ A512) and press <ENTER>.

8. Cleaning and maintenance

• All screws should be tightened and free of corrosion.

• The housing, the lenses, the mounting supports and the installation location (e.g. ceiling, suspension,

trussing) should not be deformed, modified or tampered with; e.g. do not drill extra holes in mounting supports, do not change the location of the connections…

• Mechanically moving parts must not show any signs of wear and tear.

• The electric power supply cables must not show any damage. Have a qualified technician maintain

the device.

• Disconnect the device from the mains prior to maintenance activities.

• Wipe the device regularly with a dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use alcohol or solvents.

• There are no user-serviceable parts, apart from the fuse.

• Contact your dealer for spare parts if necessary.

Replacing the fuse

Only replace the fuse by a fuse of the same type and rating.

1. Before replacing the fuse, unplug the mains lead.

2. Unscrew the fuse holder on the rear panel of the base with an appropriate screwdriver.

3. Remove the old fuse and install the new fuse in the fuse holder.

4. Replace the fuse holder in the housing and tighten it.
