  • Page 13: Ethernet Installation

    Ethernet installation Electrical installation via Ethernet in/out: Art-Net is nothing more than a protocol for transmitting DMX-512 over an ethernet network, developed by Artistic Licence Engineering (UK) Ltd. Thanks to the much larger bandwidth it is now possible to send to more than 256 DMX-universes at one time. This unit can be connected in such ethernet network using routers and switches etc. The network topology is exactly the same for a normal PC network. However the IP addresses cannot be optained via DHCP. See the previous page on how to manually set up the IP address, Net mask and DMX universe. MATRIX MATRIX MATRIX PANEL PANEL PANEL RJ45 RJ45 RJ45 RJ45 RJ45 RJ45 CAT 5 CAT 5 CAT 5 MAX ±10 units IMPORTANT NOTE: This fixture has both Ethernet input and output so you can daisy chain several units. However the number of units in one chain should be limited to ±10 units to avoid unwanted signal delays. In bigger installations you should use the “STAR-topology” using ethernet switches (or a combination of both): MATRIX MATRIX PANEL PANEL...
  • Page 14 Rigging Rigging: NOTE: The installation of this unit must be carried out by qualified service personal only. Improper installation can result in serious injuries and/or damage to the property. Overhead rigging requires extensive experience! Working load limits should be respected, certified installation materials should be used and the installed unit should be inspected regular intervals for safety.
  • Page 15 Rigging Rigging with optional flying bracket (ELUM085A): - This flying bracket is used for hanging vertical arrays of the Tri Pixel Panel 25. - To attach the flying bracket, first you must remove the supplied hanging bracket from the unit. To do this simply unscrew the tightening knobs on the side of the unit and slide off. - On the top of the flying bracket there is 2 clamp points (M12). Please use these to attach suitable clamps before fitting to the unit. - Place the flying bracket on top of the unit making sure that both carry handles are folded flat. Line up the bracket with the steel locating pins. - Now using a size 8 allen key turn the coffin lock and turn anti clockwise until you hear it lock into position. Make sure that you hear a click and cannot turn the lock any more. - Fix 2 suitable safety cable(s) to the safety eyes to make sure the unit cannot drop more than 20cm should the hanging bracket or clamps fail. LOCK If you cannot lock the bracket as described please check that it is in the correct position before attempting to join the units. Turn the lock clockwise until the pin is in the correct position see below. www.prolight.co.uk Matrix Tri Pixel Panel 25 MKII User Manual...
  • Page 16 Multi array setup Multi array setup: Once the flying bracket has been fixed to the unit securely, you can add a maximum of 4 units horizontally for the array and vertically you can fix as many columns as you like, each column must feature an array bracket at the top. NOTE: Please be sure that each unit is fixed together properly using the coffin locks on the left side and bottom side of the unit following the same method for the flying bracket. Safety Wire Safety Wire Safety Wire Safety Wire Safety Wire When the units are lined up against each other use a size 8 allen key to turn the coffin lock, turn the coffin lock anti clockwise until you hear it lock into position.

  • Page 17: Rdm Functions

    RDM functions RDM functions and remote setup: RDM means “Remote Device Management”. The Tri Pixel Panel 25 works with a brief set of RDM functions that means it can setup a bidirectional communication with an RDM compatible DMX controller. See below for these functions: - The DMX controller will send out a “discovery command”, the RDM unit(s) respond and send their unique unit ID. - The DMX controller asks each RDM unit for basic data so it knows which unit(s) are connected. The Elumen8 Tri Pixel Panel 25 will show: - Unit name: Tri Pixel Panel 25 - Manufacturer: Elumen8 - Category: LED Dimmer - Firmware: XXXX (version of the software of the unit) - DMX address: XXX (current DMX start address of the unit) - DMX footprint: XX (current number of DMX channels used by the unit) - Personality: XX (current working DMX mode/personality of the unit) The DMX controller can send certain commands to each to each RDM unit which allows remote setup of the units. The following functions can be managed remotely: - DMX start address: The DMX start addres can be set remotely from 001 to 512 - DMX personality: Set the DMX personality/mode remotely.

  • Page 18: Dmx Setup

    DMX setup Setting the DMX address: The DMX mode enables the use of a universal DMX controller. Each fixture requires a “start address” from 1- 511. A fixture requiring one or more channels for control begins to read the data on the channel indicated by the start address. For example, a fixture that occupies or uses 7 channels of DMX and was addressed to start on DMX channel 100, would read data from channels: 100,101,102,103,104,105 and 106. Choose a start address so that the channels used do not overlap. E.g. the next unit in the chain starts at 107. DMX 512: DMX (Digital Multiplex) is a universal protocol used as a form of communication between intelligent fixtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions form the controller to the fixture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from fixture to fixture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX fixtures (most controllers only have a data “out” terminal). DMX linking: DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of different manufactures to be linked together and operate from a single controller, as long as all fixtures and the controller are DMX compliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. The order in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned to a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle. When a fixture is assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to address 1 to that unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain. DATA cable (DMX cable) requirements (for DMX operation): This fixture can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The DMX address is set on the back of the unit. Your unit and your DMX controller require a standard 3-pin XLR connector for data input/output, see image below. Further DMX cables can be purchased from all good sound and lighting suppliers or Pro Light Concepts dealers.

  • Page 19: Line Termination

    DMX setup Notice: Be sure to follow the diagrams below when making your own cables. Do not connect the cables shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLRs outer casing. Grounding the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behaviour. Special note: Line termination: When longer runs of cable are used, Termination reduces signal transmission you may need to use a terminator on problems and interference. It is always advisable to connect a DMX terminal, the last unit to avoid erratic behaviour. (resistance 120 Ohm 1/4 W) between pin 2 Using a cable terminator will decrease (DMX-) and pin 3 (DMX+) of the last fixture. the possibilities of erratic behaviour. (3-pin - Order ref: CABL90, 5-pin - Order ref: CABL89) 5-pin XLR DMX connectors: Some manufactures use 5-pin XLR connectors for data transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin XLR fixtures may be implemented in a 3-pin XLR DMX line. When inserting standard 5-pin XLR connectors in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used. The diagram below details the correct cable conversion.
