DMX start address and wireless channel (see page 20). Dyna Drum HO fixtures feature automated operation when light levels fall below a certain level together with a timer for auto shut off. The internal auto-sensing power supply can accept mains inputs between 100 to 277VAC at 50 or 60Hz. -

Page 6: Installation
INSTALLATION MOUNTING THE UNIT Each Dyna Drum HO fixture includes a sturdy yoke mount with multiple holes in its base for various fixing options. Dyna Drum HO fixtures weigh 30lbs (13.6Kg) - ensure that the mounting surface and the fixings used are sufficiently rated for the task (including wind shear forces). -
Page 7: Using A Tenon Mount
USING A TENON MOUNT Optional tenon mounts are available for use when a Dyna Drum HO needs to be mounted on top of a vertical pole. Tenon mounts are available for use with 2” and 4” poles of sufficient rigidity for the weight of the fixture. -
Page 8: Fitting A Spread Lens
FITTING A SPREAD LENS You can widen the native beam angle using a spread IMPORTANT: The frosted lens. It is possible to use both a spread lens and a side of the lens must face snoot. Fit the lens first and then add the snoot. inwards to the emitters. -
Page 9: Fitting A Snoot
Acclaim Lighting are attached to the Dyna Drum HO units in the same way. It is possible to use both a spread lens and a snoot. Fit the lens first and then add the snoot. -
Page 10: Power And Control Wiring
POWER AND CONTROL WIRING The combined power and control cord (roughly five feet, 1.5m in length) enters the casing via a water-tight gland at the rear of the fixture. The cord is supplied with bare tails. The power cord color designations are as follows: r t h [ E a l o w... -

Page 12: Wireless Dmx Control
USING A DYNA DRUM HO AS A WIRELESS HUB When a Dyna Drum HO fixture receives a wireless input (and it has no wired DMX input signal), it will automatically output the full received DMX universe on its output wires. This means that you can wire through and control up to 32 non-Aria DMX fixtures (such as Dyna Flood DMX), or more, if an active repeater is used. -
Page 13: Configuration
ACCLAIM panel will first show ACCLAIM and the model type. Dyna Drum HO Color QS If a valid DMX input is present, the display will then show the current DMX address of the fixture, before blanking out. - Page 14 MAIN MENU ITEMS DMX Address Allows you to set the DMX start address for this fixture. Depending on the model, between one and five DMX addresses are required. See page 13. Factory Setting Clears all user settings and returns all options to their default states.
-
Page 15: Setting The Dmx Address
• The DMX address is completely independent of the Aria wireless radio channel setting. • When a valid DMX input is attached to the Dyna Drum HO fixture it will override any internal color output; additionally, the user display will show the configured DMX address. -
Page 16: Adjusting The Gamma Setting
ADJUSTING THE PWM FREQUENCY As with most LED fixtures, the Dyna Drum HO dims its emitters by using a technique called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM). This involves switching the emitters on and off at a high frequency and then varying the lengths of the respective on and off periods according to the required dimming level. -
Page 17: Changing The Display Settings
CHANGING THE DISPLAY SETTINGS This option contains four settings related directly to the user display: • Invert - allows you to invert the text on the user display so that it reads correctly when the fixture is mounted upside-down. • Display Warning - when set to On, a warning will appear on the display if the internal temperature becomes too high, either due to the external environment or an internal issue. -
Page 18: Running A System Test
Note: White balance is only possible on Dyna Drum HO color models. White balance is useful when your Dyna Drum HO installation will be required to regularly present particular shades of white using the R, G, B emitters, (plus the white emitters, if necessary). -

WiFi access points, and set up parallel wireless links between different sets of Aria units. Dyna Drum HO fixtures are shipped with the wireless system disabled and the radio channel set to 0 as standard. For more details about choosing the most suitable radio channel, see page 25. -
Page 20: Using The Automation Features (Photocell)
USING THE AUTOMATION FEATURES (PHOTOCELL) The fixture includes two related features which allow you to automate standalone operation: • The in-built photocell can enable fixture output (at 100%) when the ambient light level falls below a pre-determined level. • The auto shutoff timer determines how long the fixture should remain outputting after it has been triggered by the photocell. -
Page 21: Determining Solo Behavior
DETERMINING SOLO BEHAVIOR You can choose how the fixture should behave when it is running solo, either because an external control input is not being used at all or because a connection has been temporarily lost. There are three solo behavior choices: •... -

- Page 25 TESTING EMITTER OUTPUT VIA RDM After you have addressed each Dyna Drum HO fixture we recommend that you also test each one. This can be achieved either using the System Test option within the internal menu (see page 16) or using your RDM (Remote Device Management) tool. Various third party DMX/RDM tools are available;...

Page 27: Optimizing Signal Strength Via Channel Selection
2412 2437 2462 Before installing Aria wireless devices, such as the Dyna Drum HO, we strongly recommend you carry out a radio spectrum survey to determine any potential sources of temporary or permanent interference issues. If you have control over the nearest WiFi access points, it is suggested that you lock them down to one or more of the common channels (to prevent them from roaming) and select radio channels that sit comfortably alongside. -
Page 28: Choosing The Right Location
• Avoid installing either the Aria transmitter or the Dyna Drum HO receiver unit(s) near to metallic objects. • Maintain a clear ‘line of sight’ path between the Aria transmitter and the Dyna Drum HO. Maintain a clear line of sight... -
