Check the contents: Check that the carton contains the following items: Operating instructions LED BALL unit Chain M6 eyebolt Electrical installation for two or more units in DMX-mode: The DMX-protocol is a widely used high speed signal to control intelligent light equipment. You need to "daisy chain" your DMX controller and all the connected units with a good quality balanced cable (ex. To prevent strange behavior of the light effects, due to interferences, you must use a 90 to 120 terminator at the end of the chain. Never use Y-splitter cables, this simply won't work!Make sure that all units are connected to the mains. Each light effect in the chain needs to have its proper starting address so it knows which commands from the controller it has to decode. In the next section you will learn how to set the DMX addresses. How to set the DMX addresses: There are 2 ways to set the DMX-address of the units A. Setting individual DMX-addresses per projector: Make sure the DMX cables of all units are connected. Set the DMX-channel, that you want to assign as DMX-start address on you projector, tot maximum (value 255) Press the "Auto DMX address" button (6) on the projector shortly. If you want to set another projector to the same DMX-start address, simply press it's "Auto DMX address" button (6) and it will receive the same address. An example to make things clear: We will set the DMX start address of a projector to 106: Connect the projector to the DMX-controller as described above and make sure all is switched on. Automatic DMX-addressing, starting from any given start address: To save a lot of time (imagine the time it takes to set the DIP switches of 16 units. ) you can set the DMX addresses of all units in the DMX-chain just by the push of a button. No need to calculate the starting address of each individual unit, this will be done for you!Make sure the DMX cables of all units are connected. Set the DMX-channel, that you want to assign as DMX-start address on you projector, tot maximum (value 255) Press the "Auto DMX address" button (6) on the first projector in the chain for about 5seconds.
