The device must only be connected with an electric installation carried out in compliance with the IEC-
standards. The electric installation must be equipped with a Residual Current Device (RCD) with a maximum
fault current of 30 mA.
Lighting effects must not be connected to dimming-packs.
OPERATION
After you connected the effect to the mains, the TF-5 starts running. During the Reset, the motors are
trimmed and the device is ready for use afterwards.
Turn the objective-lens for adjusting the focus in order to obtain a sharp projection.
Stand Alone operation
In the Stand Alone mode, the TF-5 can be used without controller. You can do without a controller as the TF-
5 features a built-in microphone, which provides automatic sound control.
Disconnect the TF-5 from the controller and select "Sound-controlled Program-Run" (F4 – yes) or "Program-
Run" (F5 – yes).
Master/Slave-operation
Connect the master and slave-devices and adjust the settings as desribed above.
Master/Slave-operation
The master/slave-operation enables that several devices can be synchronized and controlled by one master-
device.
On the rear panel of the TF-5 you can find an XLR-jack (DMX Out) and an XLR-plug (DMX In), which can be
used for connecting several devices.
Choose the device which is to control the effects. This device then works as master-device and controls all
other slave-devices, which are to be connected to the master-device via a balanced microphone lead.
Connect the DMX OUT-jack with the DMX IN-plug of the next device.
Set the Master-mode for the master-device (F6 – yes). You can connect 32 slave-devices.
DMX-controlled operation
You can control the projectors individually via your DMX-controller. Every DMX-channel has a different
occupation with different features. In order to call up the different features, you first have to open the dimmer
(control channel 2, DMX-value 255).
Only use a stereo shielded cable and 3-pin XLR-plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller with
the fixture or one fixture with another.
