CAUTION: Do not allow contact between the common and the fixture's chassis
ground. Grounding the common can cause a ground loop, and your fixture may
perform erratically. Test cables with an ohm meter to verify correct polarity and
to make sure the pins are not grounded or shorted to the shield or each other.

Take It To The Next Level: Setting Up DMX Control

Step 1: Connect the male connector of the DMX cable to the female connector
(output) on the controller.
Step 2: Connect the female connector of
the DMX cable to the first fixture's male
connector (input). Note: It doesn't
matter which fixture address is the
first one connected. We recommend
connecting the fixtures in terms of their
proximity to the controller, rather than
connecting the lowest fixture number
first, and so on.
Step 3: Connect other fixtures in the
chain from output to input as above.
Place a DMX terminator on the output
of the final fixture to ensure best
communication.

Fixture Linking (Master/Slave Mode)

1. Connect the (male) 3-pin connector side of the DMX cable to the output
(female) 3-pin connector of the first fixture.
2. Connect the end of the cable coming from the first fixture which will have a
(female) 3-pin connector to the input connector of the next fixture consisting of
a (male) 3-pin connector. Then, proceed to connect from the output as stated
above to the input of the following fixture and so on.
Mounting & Rigging
• This fixture may be mounted in any SAFE position provided there is enough
room for ventilation.
• Mount the fixture using a suitable "C" or "O" type clamp. The clamp should
be rated to hold at least 10x the fixture's weight to ensure structural stability.
Do not mount to surfaces with unknown strength, and ensure properly "rated"
rigging is used when mounting fixtures overhead.
• Adjust the angle of the fixture by loosening both knobs and tilting the fixture.
After finding the desired position, retighten both knobs.
• Safety cables MUST ALWAYS be used.
• Never mount in places where the fixture will be exposed to rain, high humid-
ity, extreme temperature changes or restricted ventilation.
