Page 13
Start the rigging process by blocking the work area below, and make sure the work is performed from a stable platform. Check that the clamps are undamaged and can bear at least 10 times the weight of the fixture. Check that the structure can bear at least 10 times the weight for all in- stalled fixtures, clamps, cables etc.
Connecting AC power The G-Profile can operate on any 200-240V, 50/60 Hz mains power supply. Connect the fixture to power using a cable with a Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 connector (supplied with the fixture). Connect both DMX in and DMX out cables in order to maintain the fixture IP65.
Select DMX address using the arrow buttons. Selecting module (G-Profile or G-Spot) If you replace the fixture’s module in order to switch from a G-Profile to a G-Spot or vice-versa, you need to change the fixture’s software settings. In the Control Menu, go to ‘Settings→Service Menu→Fixture Type” and select the fixture you are currently using.
Configuring the fixture using an Android device via RFID The G-Profile can also be configured wirelessly, via RFID, using the SGM Tool app installed on an Android device that has NFC support, App available in the Google™ Play Store (ISO 15693 and ISO 18000-3 mode 1 compatible, operating on 13.56 MHz ±7k Hz carrier frequency).
Using stand-alone operation Stand-alone operation is where the fixture is not connected to a control device, but is preprogrammed with a series of up to 24 scenes, that play continuously in a loop. This program can be set to run by default whenever the fixture is started. Manual control / Internal sequence editor The editor offers the ability to adjust all DMX parameters of the fixture.
Using the editor In the manual menu the following menus will be available: • Editor • Run Program • Stop Program • Run on power on • Capture DMX Editor In the “Editor” menu you have the following options: • Scene - Press OK and choose a scene (1 to 24) confirm with OK. •...
Connecting to a DMX control device The G-Profile is controllable using a DMX control device and it can be connected using either a DMX cable or via the fixture’s built-in LumenRadio CRMX wireless receiver system. If using a cabled DMX system, connect the DMX in cable (with male 5-pin XLR plug) and out cable (with female 5-pin XLR plug) to the DMX data link.
DMX mode that has been set). The first channel used to receive data from a DMX control device is known as the DMX start address. Each G-Profile must have a DMX start address set. For example, if a fixture has a DMX address of 10 and it is in 3-channel DMX mode, then it uses channels 10, 11, and 12.
The refresh rate can be set between 100,00 kHz and 1,41 kHz. It is recommended to have the G-Profile configured to operate the default refresh rate by setting the ‘Control channel’ to 0 (0%) (factory default settings) by DMX whenever possible to maintain the best possible dimming performance.
