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.
Remark: if there's no output, please make sure to set the blackout mode [BLMd] of the projector to "no"
and sound sensitivity [SEnS] to a value over 50 (see previous chapter).
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 the units together using good quality balanced microphone cables. The first unit in the chain
has to be configured as the master, the other units as slave1 or slave2.
• Make sure that all units are connected to the mains.
• Done!
Remark: if there's no output, please make sure to set the blackout mode [BLMd] of the MASTER projector
to "no" and sound sensitivity [SEnS] to a value over 50 (see previous chapter).
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:
Pin layout XLR-5pin:
• 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.
HOW TO SET THE RIGHT STARTING ADDRESS:
Refer to the previous chapter (DMX Address [Addr]) to learn how to set the starting address on this unit. The
starting address of each unit is very important. Unfortunately it is impossible to tell you in this user manual
which starting addresses you have to set because this completely depends on the controller you will use...
So please refer to the user manual of your DMX-controller to find out which starting addresses you must set.
