Preparing for installation Unpacking Unpack the fixture and inspect it to ensure that it has not been damaged in transport. The P-1 is shipped with: • User manual Filter frame • One Neutrik TRUE1 power input connector, 2 m (78 in.) •...
Location/application The fixture is IP65-rated and designed for use in wet locations. This means that it is protected from: • Dust; to the degree that dust cannot enter the fixture in sufficient quantities to interfere with its operation. • Lower pressure jets of water from any direction. When selecting a location for the fixture, ensure that: •...
Installation / Rigging WARNING! Always secure elevated fixtures with a safety cable. The P-1 may be installed in any orientation. Always use an omega bracket to rig the fixture. Lock the bracket with the 1/4-turn fasteners. The fasteners are locked only when turned fully clockwise.
Rigging process Start the rigging process by blocking the work area below, and make sure the work is performed from a stable platform. Check that the clamp is undamaged and can bear at least 10 times the weight of the fixture. Check that the structure can bear at least 10 times the weight of all installed fixtures, clamps, cables etc.
Ceiling / wall mount The P-1 can be installed with an optional ceiling / wall mount. The ceiling / wall mount is design to fit the base bracket on the P-1. Installation • Loosen the lock screw on the ceiling / wall mount.
Connect the fixture to power using a cable with a Neutrik TRUE1 power connector (supplied with the fixture). The P-1 can also run on battery power, up to 12 hours with the possibility to extend the battery time up to 24 hours.
Battery charging and use The batteries are charging when connected to AC power and; when the P-1 is off or when the P-1 is on, but idle / not in use. The batteries do not charge while the fixture is in active use, e.g. when the light source is on.
Press the ‘UP’ and ‘DOWN’ arrows simultaneously to flip the display upside-down. • To turn off the P-1, press and hold the ‘ESC’ button until the fixture turns off or go to MENU → POWER OFF. • To turn on the P-1, press any button and the fixture will power on.
Display Wireless signal strength Displays the signal strength of the wireless CRMX connection. The wireless signal strength symbol will be flashing if the paired transmitter is out of range. If no transmitter is paired the symbol will be off. Current input type •...
Connecting to a DMX control device The P-1 is controllable using a DMX control device and it can be connected using either a DMX cable or via the fixture’s build-in LumenRadio CRMX wireless receiver system. If using a cabled DMX system, connect the DMX in- and output cables to the connectors on the rear of the base of the fixture (chassis mounted 5-pin XLR connectors).
The P-1 operates in various DMX modes. See “DMX modes overview” on page 37 for details. The first channel used to receive data from a DMX control device is known as the DMX start address. Each P-1 must have a DMX start address set.
Using stand-alone operation Stand-alone operation is where the fixture is not connected to a control device, but is preprogrammed with a series of up to 24 scenes, that play continuously in a loop. Up to three stand-alone programs can be defined and run from the menus, and one of the programs can be set to run by default whenever the fixture is started.
Installing the frames only requires positioning it in front of the light, and it quickly snaps in to place. The frames are fitted with a safety wire to secure the frame to the yoke on the P-1. The a filter frame can be mounted simultaneously with a barndoor.
• Release the lock pins and check that the lock pins are correctly in place. • Attach a safety wire to the barndoor and secure it to the yoke on the P-1. The barndoor can be mounted simultaneously with a filter frame.
See the table below for supported RDM functions. The controller communicates with the fixtures to show only the available options for each RDM function. The P-1 supports and enable RDM, Remote Device Management, as per the ANSI E1.20 standard. Actions...
Sensors RDM enables various sensor readouts for remote device monitoring. See the table below for available sensors and sensor types. Name Sensor Type Name Sensor Type Main Board Temp.

If in doubt, consult your SGM dealer for a suitable cleaning schedule. Clean the P-1 using a soft cloth dampened with a solution of water and a mild detergent. Do not use any product that contains solvents, abrasives or caustic agents for cleaning, as they can cause damage to both hardware, cables, connectors, plastic and painted surfaces.
Go to the MENU → INFO → FIRMWARE VERSION. To perform firmware updates, use a Windows-based personal computer, the SGM Firmware Tool software (available on the SGM website, www.sgmlight.com) and a SGM USB 5-Pin-XLR upload cable (available from your SGM dealer).
