4.2 Fixed installation
For fixed installation to a wall or ceiling, fasten the
two mounting brackets (c) in an appropriate way at
a suitable location. Use the knurled screws sup-
plied (d) to fasten the controller to the brackets
(fig. 4).
4.3 Aligning the spotlights
To align the spotlights, loosen the corresponding
setscrews (1 and 2) and turn and tilt the spotlight
into the direction desired, making sure that the
cables are neither squeezed nor stretched. Then
retighten the screws.
On the upper side of the controller, additional
threaded holes are available so that the spotlights
can also be mounted there: Remove the screws (1)
of the spotlights and fasten the spotlights in the
same way on the upper side of the controller, using
the rubber washers and the screws.
4.4 Power supply
Use the mains cable supplied to connect the mains
jack (4) of the spotlight set to a mains socket
(230 V~/ 50 Hz). The unit will be switched on. The
display (11) will indicate the operating mode most
recently selected and will extinguish after 30 sec.
Then only a dot will light up to indicate that the spot-
light set is switched on. When a control button (12)
is pressed, the display will light up for 30 sec. again.
WARNING To prevent damage to your eyes,
never look directly into the light
source for a longer period of time.
Please note that fast light changes
may trigger epileptic seizures with
photosensitive persons or persons
with epilepsy!
If multiple spotlight sets PARL-SET45 are used,
connect the jack POWER OUT (5) of the first unit to
the mains jack (4) of the second unit by means of a
mains cable with 3-pin IEC plug and 3-pin IEC
inline jack (e. g. AAC-170 / SW from the MONACOR
product line). Then connect the second unit to the
third unit, etc. until all units are connected in a
chain. Up to 20 units may be connected in this way.
The jack POWER OUT may also be used to pro-
vide power to other (light effect) units. The current
load of the jacks POWER IN and POWER OUT,
however, must not exceed 6.3 A; otherwise, over-
load may result in short circuit and fire. The jacks
POWER IN and POWER OUT are not protected by
the fuse (3).

Hint: Setting the brightness of the colours red, green
and blue will not only change their brightness but also
their hue in a colour mix. Therefore, first set the colour
that is to dominate to the brightness desired and then
add the other two colours. If the intended colour mix is
