Fixture Linking (Master/Slave Mode); Mounting/Rigging - Blizzard Lighting Blade QFX User Manual

Fixture Linking (Master/Slave Mode)

Check the "Operating Adjustments" section in this manual for
complete instructions for this type of setup and configuration.
Mounting & Rigging
This fixture may be mounted in any SAFE position provided there is
enough room for ventilation.
It is important never to obstruct the fan or vents pathway. Mount the
fixture using a suitable "C" or "O" type clamp. The clamp should be
rated to hold at least 10x the fixture's weight to ensure structural
stability. Do not mount to surfaces with unknown strength, and ensure
properly "rated" rigging is used when mounting fixtures overhead.
Adjust the angle of the fixture by loosening both knobs and tilting the
fixture. After finding the desired position, retighten both knobs.
• When selecting installation location, take into consideration lamp
replacement access (if applicable) and routine maintenance.
• Safety cables MUST ALWAYS be used.
• Never mount in places where the fixture will be exposed to rain,
high humidity, extreme temperature changes or restricted ventilation.

A quick note: Often,
the setup for Master-
Slave and Standalone
operation requires that
the first fixture in the
chain be initialized for
this purpose via either
settings in the control
panel or DIP-switches.
Secondarily, the fixtures
that follow may also
require a slave setting.
