The FL5200 is designed for use with both side and end-emitting fiber optics. Models The FL5200 is offered with a single colored light source or a multicolored light source. All models can be equipped with a motorized “twinkle wheel” for use with bundled strands of fiber.
Each mode corresponds to different twinkle speeds as described in the Table 1 below. Table 1: Preset twinkle speed modes that can be selected using the “Wheel Speed” pushbutton Mode Wheel Speed Slow Slow-med Medium Med-fast Fast FiberLamp Manual Operation Page 6 of 20 Copyright 2015 5870081 A1...

Modes 8-11 can be programmed as static colors or Playlists. Table 2 lists the factory-preprogrammed settings for each model of FL5200. All modes, except for mode 0, can be reprogrammed using the LightMix software described in section 4 of this manual.
Before installing LightMix, be sure to completely uninstall any existing versions of LightMix from your computer. To install, insert the CD that accompanies the FL5200 into the CD drive. Open the contents of the CD and click on the Setup file. A window with the Setup Wizard will appear with instructions.
When in DMX master mode, the fixture will not follow DMX commands. DMX Slave: If the fixture is in DMX slave mode, the FL5200 will receive DMX commands. If the commands are for addresses identical to those set on the fixture, the fixture will execute according to the commands.

Click the Save button on the right hand side of the Step Parameters section. After naming the ‘Profile’, it will be displayed in the Saved Profiles section. To write the ‘Profile’ to the FL5200, Click and Drag the saved ‘Profile’ from the Saved Profile section to the Selected Profile section.
DMX Hardware The FL5200 is equipped with two RJ45 female connectors, an XLR5 female connector and an XLR5 male connector. These connectors are provided such that they can be placed in a DMX daisy chain with DMX input and output ports.
It is always recommended to terminate DMX daisy chains with a resistor of the same characteristic impedance as the cable (typically 100-120 Ohms). To terminate a DMX daisy chain, place the resistor across Data pin (+) and Data pin (-), which are specified in Table 3. FiberLamp Installation Recommendations Page 12 of 19...
The FL5200 is controlled with 8 DMX channels and must be assigned to 8 DMX addresses. The DIP-switch on the side of the FL5200 defines the first DMX address of the sequence of 8 DMX addresses. The 7 remaining addresses are automatically assigned to the 7 addresses that succeed the address set on the DIP-switch.
Channels 1-6, in the sequence of 8 shown in Table 5, are channels that control the light output of the FL5200. As DMX controls operate on an incremental number scale from values of 0 to 255, a DMX value of 0 corresponds to no light and a DMX value of 255 corresponds to maximum light output.
Master/Slave Operation The FL5200 is able to act as a DMX Slave or a Master on the DMX line, depending on the settings declared using the software. Each FL5200 is preprogrammed to DMX Slave mode as a factory default setting.
Install the FL5200 in a location free from dust and debris, as the fan will pull in any dust and debris within a close proximity. Excessive dust and debris build up within and around the FL5200 will decrease the performance of the thermal management system, resulting in a shortened lifetime of the LED light source.
There is no light output environmental temperature range defined in the Specifications section. and the unit is no longer cool to the touch Make sure there is nothing obstructing the airflow to the FiberLamp. FiberLamp Troubleshooting Page 17 of 19...
