Operation

This unit may be operated in one of the following modes:

Standalone mode: Utilizing numerous built in lighting programs and its

internal microphone for sound activation.

Slave mode: Connected to another lamp, mirroring the operation of that

lamp in Standalone mode.

External DMX control: Also in slave mode, with control being

accomplished by an industry standard DMX-512 controller.

Initially Powering the Unit

Upon initial power up, the unit will display its default DMX address, 001.

The letter A will preceed this, indicating it is in 3-channel DMX mode.

Note that the display will only remain lit for a period of approximately 20

seconds. This prevents the brightness of the LED display from interfering

with scenery. Pressing any button will relight the display.

Operating Modes

As mentioned above, the stand-alone mode utilizes multiple internal

programs to provide an assortment of automatic operations. While

operating in this manner, the unit is also operating as a DMX “master”, in

that any connected PAR lamps in “Slave” mode will mimic the operation

of this lamp. By placing this lamp in “Slave” mode, it allows it to be

controlled by another lamp, or DMX controller.

If this unit is going to be used in stand-alone mode, skip to the Built-In

Program Mode section.

Selecting a DMX Mode

If the unit is going to be controlled by an external DMX controller, slave

from another LED LAMP, or set as a DMX master, you must first

determine whether you would like to operate the unit in 3, 4 or 16 channel

DMX mode. Naturally, 16 DMX channels offers the greatest flexibility,

www.mcmelectronics.com 4

while three channels offers the simplest operation, four channel mode

being a compromise between the two. The best setting will depend upon

your individual situation.

To select one of these modes, press the MENU button, the display will

light A001. Press the DOWN button, one time, the display will read either

Nod1, Nod2 or Nod3 indicating the DMX mode. Pressing the ENTER

button will cause the “N” to blink, you will then be able to select one of

the following modes:

• Nod3 – 3CH RGB

• Nod2– 4CH RGB + Dimmer

• Nod1 –16CH RGB + individual lamp control + Program

Setting DMX Address

Once the desired mode is selected, Press The UP button and A001 will

again appear. Pressing the ENTER key will cause the “A” to blink,

allowing the DMX address to be set. Use the UP or DOWN button to

select the first DMX address of the unit. You may select any DMX address

between 001 and 512. Press ENTER to confirm. Addr will show again.

The unit is now ready to operate in SLAVE mode.

Built-In Program Mode

To set to Program Mode, press the MENU button to return to the root

menu. From the root menu, you can use the UP or DOWN buttons to

scroll through all built in programs, as well as select the number of DMX

channels and the DMX address. Following are a list of the built-in

programs. Within each program is the ability to select a numeric value

between 00~100. For example, if you select the first program, RL – –, you

then press ENTER, and 100 will be displayed. Using the UP and DOWN

keys, you may select any value from 00~100. Once the desired value is

achieved, press ENTER to lock that value.

DMX-512 Cables

DMX cables utilize 110ohm, twisted pair construction, surrounded by a

shield, and connected with industry standard XLR connectors. Industry

standard cables are available in 3-pin or 5-pin configurations. This fixture

utilizes the 3-pin type. While these cables appear virtually the same as

conventional microphone or balanced audio XLR cables, use of these

cables is not recommended as they may cause erratic intermittently

unreliable performance. Proper DMX cables are widely available at

professional audio dealers, and high quality Stellar Labs DMX cables are

available from MCM Electronics and its authorized dealers.

DMX-Connections

DMX controlled devices typically have input (male) and output (female)

connections. To connect multiple DMX devices to a chain, simply start at

the DMX controller or first DMX fixture output, then to the input of the

second device. Then connect the output of the second device, to the input

of the third, and so on until you reach the end of the chain. At the last

device, connect a DMX terminator to the output.

See www.mcmelectronics.com for a complete assortment of DMX cables

of varying lengths, DMX controllers, and DMX terminators.
