PixelRange pixelline 1044 User Manual

General set up
 Mount the fixture in the required position using the supplied
combi yoke or optional floor plate set (p/n: SSFLP).
Important
• When suspended off ground, always use safety wires rated
to a minimum of 55kg (121lbs) at both ends of the fixture
through the safety wire holes.
• Do not position the fixture close to fog machines. The fog
oil mist will be drawn in by the cooling fans and will short
out important components. The warranty will be void for all
fixtures returned in such a condition.
2 Connect the power in and DMX in leads at the left end of the
fixture.
3 Where multiple fixtures are to be daisy-chained, connect power
out and DMX leads at the right end of the fixture.
Important
• When daisy-chaining fixtures, do not exceed a total load of
3kW in a single daisy chain (subject to supply and cabling re-
strictions). Each PixelLine 1044 fixture has a maximum power
requirement of 140 watts.
4 When all fixtures are connected, apply power.
5 Use the control panel to access the internal menu and choose the
appropriate operation mode and related settings (see over).
