Mounting & Rigging
This fixture may be mounted in any SAFE position provided there is enough
room for ventilation. The fan or vents pathway must never obstructed.
A mounting bracket assembly is provided that secures the bottom of the base,
the Omega bracket, and the safety cable rigging point together. When mounting
to truss, be sure to secure an appropriately rated clamp to the omega bracket.
IMPORTANT: Regardless of the rigging option you choose for your fixtures,
always be sure to secure your fixture with a safety cable.
Attach the 2x ¼-turn quick lock Omega brackets to
the base, and the clamps to the brackets.
Mount the fixture using a suitable "C" or "O" type clamps. The clamps should be
rated to hold at least 10x the fixture's weight to ensure structural stability. Do
not mount to surfaces of unknown strength, and ensure properly rated rigging
is used when mounting fixtures overhead.
Overhead mounting requires extensive experience, which includes calculating
working load limits, knowledge of the installation material being used, and
periodic safety inspections. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the
installation yourself. Improper installation can result in bodily injury.

connector to the input connector of the next
fixture consisting of a male connector. Then,
proceed to connect from the output as stated
above to the input of the following fixture
and so on.
A quick note: Often, the setup for Master-Slave and
Standalone operation requires that the first fixture in the
chain be initialized for this purpose via either settings in the
control panel or DIP-switches. Secondarily, the fixtures that

follow may also require a slave setting.
