8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues, consult the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No power | Power cable disconnected, no power from outlet, blown fuse. | Check power connections, test outlet, replace fuse (T3.15A, 250V). |
| No DMX control | Incorrect DMX address, faulty DMX cable, DMX controller issue, incorrect DMX profile. | Verify DMX address on fixture and controller. Test DMX cables. Ensure DMX profile matches fixture's 22-channel layout. |
| Only white light output | DMX profile misconfiguration, internal fault. | Review DMX channel assignments, especially for R, G, B, W channels. Ensure they are not all set to white or that individual color channels are not stuck. If issue persists, contact support. |
| Excessive fan noise | Normal operation, dust in fan, fan malfunction. | Some fan noise is normal, especially when LEDs are active. Clean fan and vents. If noise is abnormal, contact support. |
| No movement (Pan/Tilt) | DMX channel for Pan/Tilt not active, motor fault. | Check DMX channel values for Pan/Tilt. Ensure fixture is not in a static mode. |
