Page 7: In-Rush Currents
INTERCONNECTING Each Pixel Bar fixture has a short cabled power input plug at one end and an integral power/ signal output socket at the other. When fixtures are daisy chained (and are directly abutted), the input plug of one fixture can connect directly to the output socket of the previous fixture. -

Page 19: Testing Emitter Output
TESTING EMITTER OUTPUT After you have addressed each Pixel Bar fixture we recommend that you also test each one prior to installation. This can be achieved with your RDM (Remote Device Management) tool. Various third party DMX/RDM tools are available; we recommend the Acclaim Lighting XMT-350 for this task. -
Page 20: Further Information
• Check that power is correctly applied to the fixture and that there is no damage to the power input cord. • Use an RDM tool (such as the Acclaim Lighting XMT-350) to check the settings and internal temperature of the fixture. -
