ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
Important: The electrical installation should be carried out by qualified personal only,
according to the regulations for electrical and mechanical safety in your country.
STANDALONE WITH BUILT-IN CHASES:
Use this function when you want an instant show on only 1 projector.
Connect the projector to the mains and turn it on.
Select one of the following modes in the setup menu:
SOUND mode: if you want chase programs running to the rhythm of the beat. See the section "setup
menu" for more information on the settings.
STANDALONE mode: if you want chase programs running automatically but you want a certain
control over the selected chase. See the section "setup menu" for more information on the settings.
AUTO RUN mode: if you want chase programs running automatically. See the section "setup menu"
for more information on the settings.
STANDALONE MASTER/SLAVE WITH BUILT-IN CHASES:
Use this function when you want an instant show on only 1 projector.
By linking the units in master/slave connection, the first unit will control the other units to show a
synchronized automatic or sound activated light show.
Connect the projectors as shown in the drawing below
Setup of the master: exactly the same procedure as the "STANDALONE" setup.
Setup of the slaves: all slaves should be set to "SLAVE MODE", See the section "setup menu" for more
information on the settings.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION FOR TWO OR MORE UNITS IN DMX-MODE:
Use this function when you want to control the projectors by any DMX controller.
Connect the projectors as shown in the drawing below.
First put the projectors in the desired DMX-mode: see the different DMX-charts and choose the one that
suits you best.
Give all projectors a start address: each projector shows its start + end address, make sure that the
addresses do not overlap!
Some general information on DMX:
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 balanced cable of good quality.
Both XLR-3pin and XLR-5pin connectors are used, however XLR-3pin is more popular because these
cables are compatible with balanced audio cables.
Pin layout XLR-3pin: Pin1 = GND ~ Pin2 = Negative signal (-) ~ Pin3 = Positive
signal (+)
Pin layout XLR-5pin: Pin1 = GND ~ Pin2 = Negative signal (-) ~ Pin3 = Positive
signal (+) ~ Pins4+5 not used.
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!
