    Assembly hints 1. Assembly (Skipping this can lead to troubles ! ) Ok, so we have your attention. These hints will help you to make this project successful. Read them carefully. 1.1 Make sure you have the right tools:  A good quality soldering iron (25-40W) with a small tip.
  • Page 5 Assembly hints 1.3 Soldering Hints : 1- Mount the component against the PCB surface and carefully solder the leads 2- Make sure the solder joints are cone-shaped and shiny 3- Trim excess leads as close as possible to the solder joint REMOVE THEM FROM THE TAPE ONE AT A TIME ! DO NOT BLINDLY FOLLOW THE ORDER OF THE COMPONENTS ONTO THE TAPE.

  • Page 15 1 and 511, channel 0 is not used. The switches from 1 to 9 generate a binary digit repre- senting the DMX channel. Switch 1 is the LSB, switch 9 is the MSB. Only modify the DMX channel when the K8039 is not live. Make sure to turn the kit live after every modification. Fig. 4.0 Please go to our website (www.velleman.be) and consult the...
  • Page 16 Connection & use 4. Switch 10 of the SW1 to ON when using the K8039 as sole connected DMX device or when it is the last connected device in the series.  Connect the last fixture in the series with a “terminator resistor” of 120 ohm. The PCB is already equipped with a terminating resistance.
  • Page 17 DMx error correction 28. DMX error correction mode (JP2 “mode”) In normal mode (JP2 not mounted) the dimmer reacts every time, i.e. as fast as possible to the destined DMX value. In this mode it is possible to make fast yet fluid fading effects. When the error correction mode is enabled (JP2 mounted) the set luminosity will be more stable.
