ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
The electrical installation should be carried out by qualified personal only, according to the
regulations for electrical and mechanical safety in your country.
How to connect the LED-projectors to the output of the unit:
Important: Switch the Mini Led Manager OFF before you install the LED-projectors! The maximum
total load of the Mini Led Manager is 100W, spread over 3 colors: each of the 3 colors has a max.
load of 33W! Make sure not to overload the output cable!
The output cable (6) uses a special 4pin connector. Two different types of passive LED projectors can be
connected:
A. LED Projectors with a special 4pin connector (ex. LED STRIP):
This is the easiest way to
make the connections. Fix
all projectors properly and
daisy chain their in/output
cables until you reach the
maximum allowed load. Make sure to fasten the plastic ring of the connector.
B. LED Projectors with open wires (ex. LED GROUND LIGHT):
Use the supplied conversion cable and connect the internal 4 wires to the corresponding 4 wires of
the LED projectors. (in most cases the colors of the wires match with the LED colors) Make sure not
to exceed the maximum allowed load:
White wire: This is the common wire (anode)
Red wire: This the power for the red LEDs (max. 33W)
Greenwire: This the power for the green LEDs (max. 33W)
Blue wire: This the power for the blue LEDs (max. 33W)
Electrical installation in Master/slave-mode:
You need to "daisy chain" the DMX in/outputs of 2 or more units with a good quality balanced cable
Switch the unit with the free DMX-input connector to master, the other units are automatically switched
as slaves. The DIP-switches on the slave units are disabled.
Electrical installation in Master/slave-mode with the LEDCON-02 (or LEDCON-01) remote:
You need to "daisy chain" the DMX in/outputs of 1 or more units with the output of the LEDCON-02
remote using a good quality balanced cable
The LEDCON-02 remote will be used to control all connected slaves. The Mini Led Managers are
automatically switched as slaves. The DIP-switches on the slave units are disabled.

Electrical installation in DMX-mode:
The DMX-protocol is a widely used high speed signal to control intelligent light equipment. You need to
"daisy chain" your DMX controller and all the connected units with a good quality balanced cable
To prevent strange behavior of the light effects, due to interferences, you must use
a 90Ω to 120Ω terminator at the end of the chain. Never use Y-splitter cables, this
simply won't work!
DIP-switch 10 must be set to OFF on all units. Each unit in the chain needs its
proper start address so it knows which commands from the DMX-controller it has to
decode. When you need a lot of power you can use several Mini Led Managers and give them the same
start address. See the previous chapter to learn how to set the DMX addresses.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
A. Standalone 1unit:
Connect the LED projectors to the Mini Led Manager as indicated in the previous chapters.
Switch the unit on and refer to the chapter "DIP SWITCH SETTINGS" to make yourself familiar with
the various functions of the faders and buttons.
B. Two or more units in master/slave setup:
Connect the LED projectors to the Mini Led Managers as indicated in the previous chapters.
Connect the units with each other as explained in the chapter about electrical installations.
Switch the Mini Led Managers on. You can only use the controls on the master unit, the controls on
the slaves are disabled. Refer to the chapter "DIP SWITCH SETTINGS" to make yourself familiar with
the various functions of the faders and buttons on the master unit.
C. Connect the optional LEDCON-02 (or LEDCON-01) for remote control:
In most cases the MINI LED MANAGER will be installed on a wall, close to the LED-projectors. If you
want to have easy access to its functions, you can connect the LEDCON-02 (or LEDCON-01) remote
controller to the (first) Mini Led Manager. The other connections are identical to those of the standalone
or master/slave setups.
D. Controlled by universal DMX-controller:
Connect the LED projectors to the Mini Led Manager(s) as indicated in the previous chapters.
Connect the Mini Led Manager(s) with all other DMX-appliances in the DMX-chain.
Switch all units on and set the proper DMX-addresses. (don't forget to set DIP-switch 10 to OFF)
Switch your universal DMX-controller on and refer to the DMX chart below to control the connected
Mini Led Managers:
