Caution: Devices in hanging installations may cause severe injuries when crashing down! If you have doubts
concerning the safety of a possible installation, do NOT install the device!
Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10 times the device's
weight.
When installing the device, make sure there is no highly-inflammable
material (decoration articles, etc.) within a distance of min. 0.5 m.
Mount the device to your trussing system using an appropriate clamp.
For overhead use, always install a safety-rope that can hold at least 12 times the weight of the fixture. You
must only use safety-ropes with quick link with screw cap. Pull the safety-rope through the attachment eyelet
and over the trussing system or a safe fixation spot. Insert the end in the quick link and tighten the safety
screw.
The maximum drop distance must never exceed 20 cm.
A safety rope which already held the strain of a crash or which is defective must not be used again.
Before taking into operation for the first time, the installation has to be approved by an expert!
DMX-512 connection
The wires must not come into contact with each other, otherwise
Only use a stereo shielded cable and 3-pin XLR-plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller with
the device or one device with another.
Occupation of the XLR-connection:
If you are using controllers with this occupation, you can connect the DMX-output of the controller directly with
the DMX-input of the first device in the DMX-chain. If you wish to connect DMX-controllers with other XLR-
outputs, you need to use adapter-cables.
Building a serial DMX-chain:
Connect the DMX-output of the first device in the DMX-chain with the DMX-input of the next device. Always
connect one output with the input of the next device until all devices are connected.
Caution: At the last device, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120
between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last device.
DANGER OF FIRE!
DANGER TO LIFE!
the devices will not work at all, or will not work properly.
