Functions; Control Panel - Briteq DB-150 Mode D'emploi

ENGLISH
 The device should be installed out of reach of people and outside areas where persons may walk by or be
seated.
 Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10times the device's
weight.
 Always use a certified safety cable that can hold 12times the weight of the device when installing the unit.
This secondary safety attachment should be installed in a way that no part of the installation can drop
more than 20cm if the main attachment fails.
 The device should be well fixed; a free-swinging mounting is dangerous and may not be considered!
 Don't cover any ventilation openings as this may result in overheating.
 The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by
an expert before using them for the first time. The installations should be inspected every year by a skilled
person to be sure that safety is still optimal.

FUNCTIONS

1. CHANNEL OUTPUTS: Each channel output has its own output socket to connect any resistive and/or
inductive projector(s) or small light effects.
2. CHANNEL FUSES: Each channel is equipped with a fuse and "blown fuse" detector. The detector lights
up when the channel fuse is blown. Always replace the blown fuse with a fuse that has the same
characteristics! (250V/8A).
IMPORTANT NOTE: It's very important to know that the maximum load for each channel is rated at
2000Watts. However the total load for all 4 channels may not exceed 20A or 4600Watts!
3. POWER INPUT: mains input, equipped with a Neutrik Powercon
and the projectors (and/or light effects) are properly connected to the channel output sockets (1) before
you connect an earthed mains cable to this input. The maximum total load is 20A or 4600Watts.
4. INPUT FUSE: This is an automatic circuit breaker. When the fuse is blown, first locate and solve the
problem that caused the fuse to blow. When the problem is solved, simply push the button to reset the
circuit breaker.
5. DMX OUTPUT: 3pin female XLR-connector used to connect the DB-150 with the next unit in the DMX
chain.
6. DMX INPUT: 3pin male XLR-connector used to connect universal DMX-cables.
This input receives instructions from a DMX-controller.
7. STAND ADAPTER: used to put the DB-150 easily on top of a light stand. Two
different stand adapters can be used:
 35mm adapter: (included) to be used on stands with a standard 35mm
top section.
 28mm TV-Spigot: (optional) to be used on stands equipped with a TV-
spigot adapter on top.
8. SLIDING MECHANISM: used to distribute your projectors evenly over the DB-
150. On the top rail you can install 2 clamps to fix the DB-150 easily under any
ALU-truss. Also see number 9 for more information.
9. END CAP: To install the bolts/nuts (needed to fix the projectors) and stand
adapter you have to remove this end cap on one side of the unit: simply
unscrew the 4 screws  remove the cap  put the nuts/bolts and/or stand
adapter in the sliding rail  put the cap back in place  fix the 4 screws 
done!
10. CONTROL PANEL: multifunctional display + 4 buttons to navigate the setup menu. See the numbers
