IP65 NOTICE IP65 RATED An IP rated lighting fixture is commonly installed in outdoor environments and has been designed with an enclosure that effectively protects the ingress (entry) of external foreign objects such as dust and water. The Ingress Protection (IP) rating system is commonly expressed as “IP” followed by two numbers (i.e.
(available at most electrical suppliers) to prevent water ingress/condensation and/or corrosion. The 15 Hex Bar IP is fully operational in three different mounting positions: hanging upside-down, mounted sideways on trussing, or set on a flat level surface. Be sure this fixture is kept at least 12m (40ft) away from any flammable materials (decoration etc.).

INSTALLATION NOTE: Safety cable attachment points are located at both ends. Its recommended to use safety cables on both ends. ALWAYS ATTACH A SAFETY CABLE WHENEVER INSTALLING THIS DEVICE IN A SUSPENEDED ENVIRONMENT IN ORDER TO ENSURE THE FIXTURE WILL NOT FALL IF THE CLAMP FAILS.
MANUAL TILT ADJUSTMENT The bar angle is adjustable manually using the brackets located on each side of the unit. Simply loosen the tilt adjustment knobs attached to each mounting bracket and adjust the bracket accord- ingly. After making your desired set up, securely tighten the tilt adjustment knobs. The image below illustrates a 90-degree configuration.
DMX-512 protocol. The 15 Hex Bar IP has 10 DMX channel modes. The DMX address is set on the back panel of the 15 Hex Bar IP. Your unit and your DMX controller require a standard 5-pin XLR connector for data input and data output. We recommend Accu-Cable DMX cables. If you are making your own cables, be sure to use standard 110-120 Ohm shielded cable (This cable may be purchased at almost all pro lighting stores).
SYSTEM MENU The fixture includes an easy to navigate system menu control panel display where all necessary settings and adjustments are made. During normal operation, pressing the MENU button once will access the fixture’s main menu. Once in the main menu, you can navigate through the different functions and access the sub-menus with the UP and DOWN buttons.

DMX ADDRESSING All fixtures should be given a DMX starting address when using a DMX controller, so the correct fix- ture responds to the correct control signal. This digital starting address is the channel number from which the fixture starts to “listen” to the digital control signal sent out from the DMX controller. The assignment of this starting DMX address is achieved by setting the correct DMX address on the digi- tal control display on the fixture.
