6. Setup
6.1 Mounting
The light bar comes with adjustable brackets for flexible mounting options. Ensure the mounting surface or truss is capable of supporting the fixture's weight. Use appropriate clamps or screws (not included) for secure installation.
- Surface Mounting: Use the pre-drilled holes on the brackets to secure the light bar to a flat surface.
- Truss Mounting: Attach appropriate clamps (e.g., C-clamps, O-clamps) to the brackets and then secure to a truss system. Always use a safety cable (not included) when mounting overhead.
6.2 Power Connection
- Connect the provided power cord to the "POWER IN" connector on the light bar.
- Plug the other end of the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet (110V-240V AC).
- For daisy-chaining multiple units, connect a power link cable (not included) from the "POWER OUT" of the first fixture to the "POWER IN" of the next. A maximum of 6 fixtures can be daisy-chained.
6.3 DMX Connection (Optional)
To control the light bar via DMX, connect a DMX cable (not included) from your DMX controller's output to the "DMX IN" port on the light bar. For multiple DMX fixtures, connect from the "DMX OUT" of the first fixture to the "DMX IN" of the next, forming a daisy chain.
7. Operating Instructions
