USE OF LIGHT SHAPING ACCESSORIES
Light shaping accessories like a honeycomb can be inserted into
the guiding rails of the diffuser at the front of the SkyPanel:
•
Open locking pins (A) by pulling them out completely. Tilt
the diffuser forward.
•
Slide the accessory from above into the guiding rails of the
diffuser.
•
Open both locking pins (A) by pulling them out completely.
Tilt back the diffuser. Both locking pins (A) must snap in the
guide holes of the diffuser firmly.
DMX INTERFACE
The SkyPanel is equipped with two locking, 5-pin XLR connec-
tors (10 and 11) for the DMX / RDM data input and throughput.
USB INTERFACE
The SkyPanel is equipped with an USB A interface (9). The
interface can be used for uploading new firmware using a FAT32
formatted USB 1.0 / 2.0 memory stick. The firmware must be
stored in the root directory of the USB memory stick.
WARNING! Check the setting for the USB port in the menu USB
Mode before connecting the memory stick. Select the option
Normal. Otherwise the USB memory stick will not work.
ETHERNET CONNECTOR
The SkyPanel is equipped with an RJ45 Ethernet connector
(12). The interface can be used for uploading new firmware, set-
ting parameters and service purpose using the ARRI lighting
service manager.
The latest firmware and the ARRI Lighting Service Manager
software tool are located in the download area of our website
www.arri.com for free download.
WIRELESS DMX INTERFACE
The SkyPanel S360-C is equipped with a LumenRadio Wireless
DMX (CRMX) receiver. It can communicate DMX and RDM. To
activate this feature, go to the DMX Settings menu item and turn
the Wireless DMX Data State to „On". Link your LumenRadio
transmitter to the S360-C by pressing the „Link" button on your
transmitting device.
POWER-ON AND OPERATION
By switching the power switch on (or by applying the mains
power on SkyPanels without a power switch), the SkyPanel
starts lighting after a short startup time with the same setting
which had been active at its last switch off.
The SkyPanel can now be controlled over the DMX interface,
over the USB interface or by the integrated fixture menu (16).
Modes of Operation
WHITE LIGHT
The SkyPanel generates white light with an optimized color
rendition. The color temperature and the green / magenta point
can be continuously adjusted.
COLORED LIGHT
The SkyPanel generates white or colored light. The color tone
(hue) and the color saturation can be adjusted continuously. At
very low color saturation, the SkyPanel generates white light
without an optimized color rendition.
The operating modes can be changed by pressing the MODE
button short.
