Applications and Setup Options

The unit BEAM-8/RGBW can be used to create
effect illumination, e. g. on stage, in discotheques or
function rooms. It features 8 powerful RGBW LEDs,
mounted on a movable bar. (RGBW stands for the
individual colours red, green, blue and white)
The light effect unit is designed for control via a
DMX light controller (39 or 4 DMX control chan-
nels), but it can also be operated on its own, run-
ning automatic or music-controlled light show pro-

The unit can be set up on an even surface. For
upside-down installation on a crossbar, two clamps
are provided: Insert each clamp in two holes located
on the bottom side of the unit and then turn the bolts
clockwise (to the stop) to securely lock the clamp.

Setting the Unit into Operation

Important! The unit is equipped with PowerCon
connections for power supply. A PowerCon
must not be connected or disconnected while volt-
age is applied. Therefore, first make the Power-
Con ® connection and then connect the unit to the
mains socket; likewise, disconnect the unit from the
.
mains socket prior to disconnecting the Power -
Con connection.
®
1) For power supply, connect the mains jack
POWER IN of the unit to a mains socket
(230 V~/ 50 Hz) using the mains cable provided.
Insert the blue PowerCon
cable into the mains jack, and then turn the plug
to the right until it engages. To remove the plug,
pull back the safety latch of the plug and turn the
plug to the left.
2) If multiple BEAM-8 / RGBW are used, the jack
POWER OUT of the first unit can be connected
to the mains jack POWER IN of the second unit.
For this, a mains cable with PowerCon
(NAC-3FCB and NAC-3FCA) is required. The
second unit can then be connected to the third
unit, etc. until all units are connected in a chain.
Thus, up to 30 units can be connected with each
other.
If the unit is to be put out of operation
definitively, take it to a local recycling plant
for a disposal which is not harmful to the
environment.
