HELIOS 3W
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for having chosen the item. You will see you have acquired a powerful
and versatile device. Unpack your item. Before you initial start-up, please make sure that there
is no damage caused by transportation. Should there be any, consult your dealer and do not
use the device.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Be careful with your operations. With a dangerous voltage you can suffer a dangerous
electric shock when touching the wires!
Keep this device away from rain and moisture!
Unplug mains lead before opening the housing!
For your own safety, please read this user manual carefully before you initial start-up.
If the device has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g. after transportation), do
not switch it on immediately. The arising condensation water might damage your device.
Leave the device switched off until it has reached room temperature. Never let the power-cord
come into contact with other cables! Handle the power-cord and all connections with the mains
with particular caution! Make sure that the available voltage is not higher than stated on the
rear panel. During the operation, the housing becomes very hot. Do not switch the device on
and off in short intervals as this would reduce the lamp’s life. Never look directly into the light
source, as sensitive persons may suffer an epileptic shock (especially meant for epileptics)!
Keep away from children and amateurs! This product is designed for both indoor and outdoor
use with IP65 ingree protection. This device is designed for professional use, e.g. on stages, in
discotheques, theatres etc. The minimum distance between light-output and the illuminated
surface must be more than 0.5 meters. Always fix the fixture with an appropriate safety-rope.
The maximum ambient temperature t
a
= 45° C must never be exceeded. Operate the device
only after having become familiar with its functions.
Features
Four operation modes: DMX 512 protocol, auto and master/slave and sound active operating
in various modes to form different led effects
Installation
On the rear panel of the item 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. Connect the DMX OUT-jack with the DMX IN-plug of the next device.
DMX-512 connection / connection between fixtures
The wires must not come into contact with each other, otherwise
Occupation of the XLR-connection:
If you are using controllers with this occupation, you can connect the DMX-output of the
controller directly with the DMX-input of the first fixture in the DMX-chain. If you wish to
connect DMX-controllers with other XLR-outputs, you need to use adapter-cables.
Building a serial DMX-chain:
Connect the DMX-output of the first fixture in the DMX-chain with the DMX-input of the next
fixture. Always connect one output with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are
connected.
Caution: At the last fixture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a
120
resistor between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the
DMX-output of the last fixture.
Connection with the mains
Connect the device to the mains with the enclosed power supply cable.
OPERATION
1) DMX operation mode
Addressing
After you connect the item to the mains, the item 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. The four-digital LED display on the back side of
the item allows you to assign the DMX fixture address, which is defined as the first channel
from which the item will respond to the controller. If you set, for example, the address to
channel 7, the item will use the channel 7 to 12 for control. Please, be sure that you don’t have
any overlapping channels in order to control each item correctly and independently from any
other fixture on the DMX data link. If two, three or more items are addressed similarly, they will
work similarly. When the item finishes resetting, R-OO1 will flash in the led display and then
set the desired DMX address by pressing the UP or DOWN buttons.
DMX Controlling:
After having addressed all items, you may now start operating these via your lighting controller.
After switching on, the item will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or not.
If the data is received, the red led dot in the display flashes. DMX Mode: In DMX mode, press
the FUNCTION button. The LED menu display will show either d001 or d-Px"d001" denotes
that the unit initiative address to receive DMX signals. Press UP or DOWN to adjust the
address between 001 to 512; enter d-Px, denotes the mode of reception of DMX signal, press
UP or DOWN to choose P1, P2 ,P3, P4 and P5, please see the chart as below:
