4. Setup and Installation
Proper setup is crucial for the performance and safety of your moving head light.
4.1. Mounting
The unit can be floor-mounted or securely attached to a truss using the provided Omega bracket. Ensure the mounting surface or structure can safely support the unit's weight (approximately 29 pounds).
- Attach the Omega bracket to the bottom of the fixture using the designated screws.
- Secure the Omega bracket to a truss or other suitable mounting point with appropriate clamps (not included).
- Always use a safety cable (not included) as a secondary attachment when mounting overhead.
4.2. Power Connection
Connect the provided power cable to the unit's power input and then to a standard 110V AC power outlet. Ensure the power source is stable and properly grounded.
4.3. DMX Connection (Optional)
For DMX control, connect a DMX cable from your DMX controller's output to the unit's DMX input. If using multiple units, daisy-chain them by connecting the DMX output of the first unit to the DMX input of the next, and so on. Terminate the last unit in the chain with a DMX terminator.
5. Operating Modes
The DJCLUB 100W LED Moving Head Light supports several operating modes:
- Automatic Operation Mode: The unit runs through pre-programmed light sequences without external control.
- Sound-Activated Mode: The light reacts to ambient sound, changing patterns and movements in sync with music.
- DMX512 Mode: Provides full control over all functions (pan, tilt, color, gobo, prism, dimming, strobe) via a DMX controller. Refer to the DMX channel chart (typically found in a separate DMX manual or appendix) for specific channel assignments.
- Master-Slave Mode: Link multiple units together. One unit acts as the "master" (e.g., in Auto or Sound-Activated mode), and the other units (slaves) will synchronize their operations with the master.
- Strobe Mode: Activates a continuous strobe effect.
- Pattern Dithering: Refers to the gobo shaking effect.
Use the control panel display and buttons on the base of the unit to select and configure the desired operating mode.
