LP304 D
The dimmer bar consists of four par cans mounted on a rectangular steel beam that houses a
four-channel dimmer pack. The steel beam is designed to mount onto a self-supporting stand with
a pipe diameter of 1-3/8 inch.

PeratiOn
When the dimmer bar is initially plugged into the AC wall outlet, a lamp test program will illuminate
each lamp sequentially. This will confirm that the dimmer pack microprocessor is operational.
(This test does not occur if the foot controller is connected.) The foot controller may be used to
test the lights individually.

Four, 300 Watt, Par 56 cans are mounted on each LP304 Dimmer Bar (two on each LP302).
Each dimmer bar is factory supplied with eight colored gels. The frames to mount the gels are
located at the mouth of each par can. Always operate the par cans in an open, well-ventilated
area. Never obstruct the ventilation holes on the can bodies. To reduce the possibility of fire, keep
flammable materials away from the can bodies.

There are two XLR connectors (one male and one female) mounted on the back of the LP302
and LP304 Dimmer Bars. Two female XLR connectors are on the LP608 Foot Controller.
Standard XLR, shielded microphone cables are used as the controller cables. A single controller
cable is connected from the foot controller female XLR to the male XLR input connector on the
dimmer bar. Another controller cable can be connected to the dimmer bar female XLR output to
allow a daisy-chain to additional dimmer bars. This allows connection of several dimmer bars (in
parallel). Note that each dimmer bar in the chain receives the same control signal.

ii. Use of LP302 With an LP Series Controller
When used with an LP608 controller, the LP302 is enabled to dim the lights and set up
presets. See Figure 5 for connection details. Daisy-chain connections using the XLR jacks
must be used to link units when controlled by a LP Series controller. The 1/4 inch jacks
should not be used when using the LP Series controller. It's possible to daisy-chain several
units (even mixing LP302 and LP304 dimmers bars). When using a controller, the override
switches should be left in the out position. For convenience, the Override switches may be
used when aiming the lights.
iii. 500 Watt Lamp Conversion
The LP302 Dimmer Bar can use 500 Watt par 56/NSP lamps, just replace the 300 Watt
lamps with the 500 Watt par 56/NSP lamps.
