    FOR EQUIPMENT THAT CONNECTS TO THE POWER MAINS:
24. CAUTION: If the power cord of the device is equipped with earthing contact, then it must be connected to an outlet with a protective
    ground. Never deactivate the protective ground of a power cord.
25. If the equipment has been exposed to strong fluctuations in temperature (for example, after transport), do not switch it on immediately. Moisture and condensation could damage the equipment. Do not switch on the equipment until it has reached room temperature.
26. Before connecting the equipment to the power outlet, first, verify that the mains voltage and frequency match the values specified on the equipment. If the equipment has a voltage selection switch, connect the equipment to the power outlet only if the equipment values and the mains power values match. If the included power cord or the power adapter does not fit in your wall outlet, contact your electrician.
27. Do not step on the power cord. Make certain that the power cable does not become kinked, especially at the main outlet and/or power adapter and the equipment connector.
28. When connecting the equipment, make certain that the power cord or power adapter is always freely accessible. Always disconnect the equipment from the power supply if the equipment is not in use or if you want to clean the equipment. Always unplug the power cord and power adapter from the power outlet at the plug or adapter and not by pulling on the cord. Never touch the power cord and power adapter with wet hands.
29. Whenever possible, avoid switching the equipment on and off in quick succession because otherwise, this can shorten the useful life of the equipment.
30. IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Replace fuses only with fuses of the same type and rating. If a fuse blows repeatedly, please contact an authorized service center.
31. To disconnect the equipment from the power mains completely, unplug the power cord or power adapter from the power outlet
32. If your device is equipped with a Volex power connector, the mating Volex equipment connector must be unlocked before it can be removed. However, this also means that the equipment can slide and fall down if the power cable is pulled, which can lead to personal injuries and/or other damage. For this reason, always be careful when laying cables.
33. Unplug the power cord and power adapter from the power outlet if there is a risk of a lightning strike or before extended periods of disuse.
34. The device must only be installed in a voltage-free condition (disconnect the mains plug from the mains).
35. Dust and other debris inside the unit may cause damage. The unit should be regularly serviced or cleaned (no guarantee) depending on ambient conditions (dust etc., nicotine, fog) by qualified personnel to prevent overheating and malfunction.
36. Please keep a distance of at least 0.5 m to any combustible materials.
37. Power cables to power multiple devices must have a cross-section of at least 1.5 mm². Within the EU, the cables must correspond to H05VV-F, or similar. Suitable cables are offered by Adam Hall. With these cables, you can connect multiple devices via the power OUT connection to the power IN connection of an additional device. Make sure that the total current consumption of all connected devices does not exceed the specified value on all connected devices (label on the device). Make sure to keep power cable connections as short as possible.

CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the cover (or back). There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Maintenance and repairs should be exclusively carried out by qualified service personnel.

	The warning triangle with the lightning symbol indicates dangerous uninsulated voltage inside the unit, which may cause an electrical shock.
	The warning triangle with an exclamation mark indicates important operating and maintenance instructions.
	Warning! This symbol indicates a hot surface. Certain parts of the housing can become hot during operation. After use, wait for a cool-down period of at least 10 minutes before handling or transporting the device.
	Warning! This device is designed for use below 2000 meters in altitude.
	Warning! This product is not intended for use in tropical climates.

Important: Overhead installation may only be carried out by qualified personnel. Installation on a suitable tripod is possible using the integrated 35 mm tripod flange.

DMX TECHNOLOGY

DMX-512

DMX (Digital Multiplex) is the designation for a universal transmission protocol for communications between corresponding devices and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data to the connected DMX device(s). The DMX data is always transmitted as a serial data stream that is forwarded from one connected device to the next via the “DMX IN” and “DMX OUT” connectors (XLR plug-type connectors) that are found on every DMX-capable
device provided the maximum number of devices does not exceed 32 units. The last device in the chain needs to be equipped with a terminator (terminating resistor).

DMX CONNECTION
DMX is the common “language” via which a very wide range of types and models of equipment from various manufacturers can be connected with one another and controlled via a central controller, provided that all of the devices and the controller are DMX compatible. For optimum data transmission, it is necessary to keep the connecting cables between the individual devices as short as possible. The order in which the devices are integrated into the DMX network has no influence on the addresses. Thus the device with the DMX address 1 can be located at any position in the (serial) DMX chain: at the beginning, at the end, or somewhere in the middle. If DMX address 1 is assigned to a device, the controller “knows” that it should send all data allocated to address 1 to this device regardless of its position in the DMX network.

SERIAL CONNECTION OF MULTIPLE LIGHTS

1. Connect the male XLR connector (3-pin or 5-pin) of the DMX cable to the DMX output (female XLR socket) of the first DMX device (e.g. DMX-Controller).
2. Connect the female 3-pin XLR connector of the DMX cable connected to the first projector to the DMX input (male 3-pin socket) of the next DMX device. In the same way, connect the DMX output of this device to the DMX input of the next device and repeat until all devices have been connected. Please note that as a rule, DMX devices are connected in series and connections cannot be shared without active splitters. The maximum number of DMX devices in a DMX chain should not exceed 32 units. The Adam Hall 3 STAR, 4 STAR, and 5 STAR product ranges include an extensive selection of suitable cables.

DMX CABLES
When fabricating your own cables, always observe the illustrations on this page. Never connect the shielding of the cable to the ground contact of the plug, and always make certain that the shielding does not come into contact with the housing of the XLR plug. If the shielding is connected to the ground, this can lead to short-circuiting and system malfunctions.

DMX TERMINATORS (TERMINATING RESISTORS)
To prevent system errors, the last device in a DMX chain needs to be equipped with a terminating resistor (120 ohms, 1/4 Watt).
3-pin XLR connector with a terminating resistor: K3DMXT3
5-pin XLR connector with a terminating resistor: K3DMXT5 

DMX ADAPTER
The combination of DMX devices with 3-pin connectors and DMX devices with 5-pin connectors in a DMX chain is possible with suitable adapters.

Pin Assignment
DMX Adapter 5-pin XLR male to 3-pin XLR female: K3DGF0020 Pins 4 and 5 are not used.
Pin Assignment
DMX Adapter 3-pin XLR male to 5-pin XLR female: K3DHM0020 Pins 4 and 5 are not used.
