ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION + ADDRESSING

Important: The electrical installation should be carried out by qualified personal only,
according to the regulations for electrical and mechanical safety in your country.
Electrical installation for 1 standalone unit:
 Just insert the mains cable. The unit starts working immediately in stand-alone mode.
Electrical installation for two or more units in master/slave:
In this mode the units will show a synchronized show, working to the rhythm of the beat.
 Connect 2 to maximum 16 units together using good quality balanced microphone cables. Put the first
unit in the chain in master mode (see Setup menu) and the other units as slaves (see Setup menu).
 Make sure that all units are connected to the mains.
 Done!
Electrical installation in DMX-mode:
 The DMX-protocol is a widely used high speed signal to control intelligent light equipment. You need to
"daisy chain" your DMX controller and all the connected units with a good quality balanced cable.
 Both XLR-3pin and XLR-5pin connectors are used, however XLR-3pin is more popular because these
cables are compatible with balanced audio cables.
Pin layout XLR-3pin:
 To prevent strange behavior of the light effects, due to interferences, you must use a 90Ω to 120Ω
terminator at the end of the chain. Never use Y-splitter cables, this simply won't
work!
 Make sure that all units are connected to the mains.
 Each light effect in the chain needs to have its proper starting address so it knows
which commands from the controller it has to decode. In the next section you will
learn how to set the DMX addresses.
