Safety instructions
NOTICE! Power supply Before connecting the device, ensure that the input voltage (AC outlet) matches the voltage rating of the device and that the AC outlet is protected by a residual current circuit breaker. Failure to do so could result in damage to the device and possibly injure the user. Unplug the device before electrical storms occur and when it is unused for long periods of time to reduce the risk of electric shock or fire.
NOTICE! Fire hazard due to exceedance of the maximum current The device can power other devices of identical construction. The current consumption of all other devices connected in series must not exceed the values indicated in the technical specifications. Otherwise you risk injuries and irreparable damages to the device. Only connect so many identical devices that the maximum current consumption is not exceeded. Ensure the sufficient dimensioning (wire cross section) of the power cables used for all devices connected in series.
NOTICE! Possible staining The plasticiser contained in the rubber feet of this product may possibly react with the coating of your surface and after some time cause permanent dark stains. In case of doubt, do not put the rubber feet directly on the surface and use a suitable underlay if neces- sary, i.e. felt pads or similar.

Features
Information about protection class IP65
Equipment with protection class IP65 are dust-tight and completely protected against contact (first code number). They are also protected against splash water from any angle (second code digit). That is why this equipment can also be used outdoors. Event technology equipment is generally only designed for temporary use however (event lighting) and not for permanent use outdoors.
The specified protection class does not make a statement about the weather resistance of the equipment (resistance to changing ambient conditions as well as against the effects of sun- light and UV rays).
The seals and screw connections of the equipment must be checked regularly to ensure a fault-free operation. In cases of doubt, consult a specialist workshop in due time.
For technological reasons, the light output of LEDs decreases over their lifetime. This effect increases with higher operating temperature. You can extend the service life of the illuminants by providing adequate ventilation and operating the LEDs with the lowest possible brightness.

Troubleshooting
10 Troubleshooting
NOTICE! Possible data transmission errors For error-free operation make use of dedicated DMX cables and do not use ordi- nary microphone cables. Never connect the DMX input or output to audio devices such as mixers or ampli- fiers.
In the following we list a few common problems that may occur during operation. We give you some suggestions for easy troubleshooting:

Troubleshooting
Symptom
The unit does not work, no light
No response to the DMX con- troller
Remedy
Check the mains connection and the main fuse.
1. When the display flashes, e.g. `d001′ , no valid DMX signal is received. Check whether the DMX controller is switched on. Check the DMX connectors and cables for proper connection.
2. If the display is not flashing but there is still no response, check the address settings and the DMX polarity.
3. Replace the DMX cable.
4. Check whether the DMX cables run near or parallel to high-voltage cables that may cause damage or interfer- ence to a DMX interface circuit.
If the procedures recommended above do not succeed, please contact our Service Center. You can find the contact information at www.thomann.de.
