Preparing for installation

Unpacking

Unpack the device and inspect it to ensure that it has not been damaged during transport.
The Q-8 is shipped with:
• 1 x Input power cable, 2 m/78 in
• Two Omega brackets with 1/4-turn fasteners
• Safety information leaflet

Location / application

The fixture is IP66-rated and designed for both indoor and outdoor installations.
This means that it is protected from:
• Dust, to the degree that dust cannot enter the device in sufficient quantities as to interfere with its operation.
• High pressure jets of water from any direction.
When selecting a location for the device, ensure that:
• It is situated away from public thoroughfares and protected from contact with people.
• It is not immersed in water or exposed to high-pressure water jets.
• It has adequate ventilation.
When using the fixture for outdoor events, ensure that:
• For wireless DMX or standalone operation, the protective cover is securely mounted in any unused DMX connectors in
order to ensure the IP-rating.
• For cabled DMX operation, the DMX out of the last fixture is terminated with a 120 Ohm resistor between pin 2 and 3
(according to the RS485 standard), and the DMX out is properly sealed, in accordance with the ingress protection (IP)
requirements. A maximum of 32 fixtures can be connected to the same DMX link.

Transportation

Always use the supplied packaging or suitable flight case for transportation and storage.
Never carry the fixture by connected cables or wires; use the handle.

Installing / rigging the Q-8

All SGM luminaries have locking points in the base for installation and rigging. The distance between the points from center to
center is always 106 mm (See figure 2 for more measurements).
The base of the standard fixtures always include 1/4 turn fasteners camlocks to mount the omega brackets.
The standard Q-8 may be installed in any orientation and it might take up to three omega brackets per fixture. Always use the
supplied omega brackets to rig the fixture and lock the bracket with the 1/4-turn fasteners.
PLEASE NOTE!!
The 1/4-turn fasteners are only locked when turned fully clockwise.
Depending on the structure, please use appropriate and secure methods for mounting the Omega brackets.
