Installation Steps:

1. Choose Location: Select a stable and secure location for the light. It can be placed on a flat surface, mounted on a truss, or attached to a T-bar using the provided bracket.
2. Attach Bracket: If mounting, securely attach the adjustable bracket to the base of the light using the provided screws.
3. Secure Mounting: Use appropriate clamps (not included) to attach the bracket to a truss or T-bar. Ensure all connections are tight and secure to prevent accidental falls.
4. Power Connection: Connect the power cord to the "Power IN" port on the light and then plug it into a suitable power outlet.
5. DMX Connection (Optional): If using DMX control, connect a DMX cable from your DMX controller to the "DMX IN" port. For multiple lights, daisy-chain them by connecting "DMX OUT" of the first light to "DMX IN" of the next.

6. Operating Modes

The UKing Moving Head Light supports four primary operating modes, selectable via the control panel or remote control.

Examples of the diverse patterns and color combinations achievable with the light.

Mode Selection:

• DMX512 Mode: For professional control using a DMX controller. Allows precise control over pan, tilt, color, gobo, strobe, and dimmer functions. The light supports 9 or 11 DMX channels. Refer to the DMX channel chart in the specifications section for details.
• Master/Slave Mode: Connect multiple lights via DMX cables. Set one unit as "Master" and others as "Slave." Slave units will synchronize their movements and effects with the Master unit.
• Sound Activated Mode: The built-in microphone detects music or sound, and the light's patterns and movements will react to the beat. Sensitivity can often be adjusted.
• Auto Mode (Standalone): The light runs through pre-programmed sequences of colors, patterns, and movements automatically. Several auto programs may be available.

Use the MENU button on the control panel to cycle through modes, and UP/DOWN buttons to select options, then ENTER to confirm.

7. Remote Control Operation

The included wireless remote control provides convenient access to basic functions and mode selection from a distance (10-30m range).

Layout and functions of the wireless remote control, including buttons for power, auto modes, sound modes, strobe, color, pattern, and pan/tilt control.

Remote Control Functions:

• Power Button: Turns the unit On/Off.
• Stroboscopic: Activates or deactivates the strobe effect.
• Auto 0/1/2: Selects different automatic programs.
• Sound Mode 0/1/2: Selects different sound-activated programs.
• Save: Saves current settings (specific functionality may vary).
• Color Buttons: Changes the color of the light.
• Pattern Buttons: Changes the gobo pattern.
• Manual Positioning Switch: Activates manual control for pan/tilt.
• Pan Running (X-/X+): Controls horizontal movement.
• Tilt Running (Y-/Y+): Controls vertical movement.

Note: The remote control offers basic functionality and cannot fully replace a DMX console for advanced programming and precise control. It primarily allows for power on/off, sound activation, positioning, and basic effect changes.

8. DMX Control (Advanced)

For professional lighting setups, the DMX512 protocol allows for precise control of the moving head light's functions. It is recommended to use a dedicated DMX console for optimal control rather than software downloaded from the internet.

DMX Channel Assignment (Example for 11-Channel Mode):

For detailed DMX programming, consult your DMX controller's manual and experiment with the channel values to achieve desired effects.

9. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your moving head light.

• Cleaning: Disconnect power before cleaning. Use a soft, lint-free cloth to wipe the exterior. For lenses and mirrors, use a specialized lens cleaning solution and cloth to avoid scratches. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Ventilation: Periodically check and clean the ventilation openings to ensure they are free from dust and debris.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect power cables, DMX cables, and mounting hardware for any signs of wear or damage. Replace damaged components immediately.
• Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the light in a dry, dust-free environment, preferably in its original packaging or a protective case.
