Both fixtures offer built-in wireless DMX support, stand-alone programs, dimming, RGB color mixing (Q-7 only), ...
  • Page 11: Preparing For Installation

    Unpack the fixture and inspect it to ensure that it has not been damaged during transport. ™ The Q-7 is shipped with two quarter-turn brackets, that can be used to mount the fixture at elevation, and a W-DMX wireless antenna.
  • Page 12: Installing The Q-7

    Installing the Q-7 The Q-7 may be installed in any  orientation, but if installed horizontally with a downward beam-angle, water can  potentially pool in the fan wells. Under normal operation the moisture will  evaporate. However, in locations with high rainfall, you may wish to fabricate a rain 300 (11.8 in.)
  • Page 13 Two quarter-turn brackets are supplied with the fixture if it is to be flown above the ground. Remove the floor stand/base and rig the Q-7 to a support truss or  structure using the supplied brackets and suitable clamps. Fasten a safety cable (not shown) between the support structure and the attachment point on the fixture.
  • Page 14: Connecting Ac Power

    Connecting AC power The Q-7 can operate on any 208–240 V, 50/60 Hz AC mains power supply. It draws approximately 2 amps at full power. For permanent installation, have a qualified electrician wire the mains cable directly to a suitable branch circuit. ...
  • Page 15: Configuring The Fixture

    Configuring the fixture using an Android telephone via RFID Q-7 fixtures can also be configured wirelessly, via RFID, using the SGM Tool app installed on an Android smart phone that has NFC support (ISO 15693 and ISO 18000-3 mode 1 compatible, operating on 13.56 MHz ±7k Hz carrier frequency).
  • Page 16: Master/Slave Configuration

    Master/Slave configuration You can set a Q-7 fixture to operate as master fixture to another Q-7 fixture (which then becomes a slave fixture), or an entire group of Q-7 fixtures (which then becomes slave fixtures). The assigned slave fixture(s) will mimic the settings of the master...
  • Page 17: Setting A Static Color Manually

    Setting a static color manually The fixture can be configured to display a predefined and static color (or white color, depending on the Q-7 model) using the “Manual→Quick color” menus (see “Control menu” on page 38). Note that whenever the “Manual→Quick color” settings are changed, the fixture will be set by default to automatically start in quick color mode whenever it is powered on.
  • Page 18: Using Stand-Alone Operation

    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.
  • Page 19: Connecting To A Dmx Control Device

    Connecting to a DMX control device The fixture is controllable using a DMX control device and it can be connected using either DMX cable or via the Q-7’s  built-in wireless W-DMX G4 receiver system. If using a cabled DMX system, connect the DMX in cable (with male 5-pin XLR plug) and out cable (with female 5-pin XLR plug) to the DMX data link.
  • Page 20: Enabling The W-Dmx G4 Wireless Receiver

    Enabling the W-DMX G4 wireless receiver The W-DMX G4 wireless receiver is an included accessory and is recommended for long-range wireless operation.   Before you connect the wireless receiver, ensure that there is no DMX cable connected to the fixture. Attach the supplied wireless DMX antenna to the connector on the back of the fixture.
  • Page 21: Configuring The Fixture For Dmx Control

    The first channel used to receive data from a DMX control device is known as the DMX start address. Each Q-7 must have a DMX start address set. For example, if a Q-7 has a DMX address of 10 and it is in 3-channel DMX mode, then it uses channels 10, 11, and 12.
  • Page 22: Setting The Dmx Mode

    Using the “DMX mode” menu available from the control panel, specify the DMX mode that provides the fixture controls that you require: Q-7 DMX mode Function Shutter, Intensity, and RGBW XC-5 Emulation RGBW Q-7 W DMX mode Function Shutter & Intensity (individual panels) X-5 Emulation Intensity (individual panels) Intensity & Strobe (individual panels) Intensity (all panels)
  • Page 23: Full Color Calibration And Color Temperature Correction (Q-7 Only)

    Full Color Calibration and Color Temperature Correction (Q-7 only) All channel modes except 3 Channel Mode RGB: Lets you choose between raw or white-calibrated color (6500K default) via the Control Menu (“Settings→White Calibrated”) 3 Channel Mode RGB: Features full color calibration (irrespective of current color setting) when you mix 2 or 3 colors to ensure uniform color between products.
  • Page 24: Fixture Personality Settings

    Linear control provides uniform adjustment throughout the control action, whereas gamma corrected dimming provides finer control at low light levels, where the eye is more sensitive to change. By default, the Q-7 uses gamma corrected dimming. For uniform response, set all fixtures to the same dimming curve. To set the desired dimming curve, use the “Settings→Dimming curve”...
  • Page 25: Setting The Fan Mode

    Setting the fan mode For operating environments where low-noise is a requirement or where the fixture will be operating in high temperatures, it is possible to adjust the default fan speed to low or high using the “Settings→Fan mode” menu.
  • Page 26: Service

    If in doubt, consult your SGM dealer for a suitable maintenance schedule. Clean the Q-7 using a soft cloth dampened with a solution of water and a mild detergent. Do not use products that contain solvents, abrasives or caustic agents for cleaning, as they can cause damage to both hardware, cables and connectors.
