Laser Warning
Laser light can cause instant eye injury if the product is not set up and used correctly.
Avoid direct eye contact with the laser light. Never intentionally expose your eyes or others to direct laser light. This laser product can potentially cause instant eye damage or blindness if laser light directly strikes the eyes. The heat from a laser cannot be felt, but it can still injure or blind people. This can occur even with very small amounts of exposure at a long distance.
This product contains a Class 3B Laser. It is critical to prevent the possibility of ANY direct eye exposure.
- Do not operate the laser without reading and understanding the safety information contained in this manual.
- Do not assume exposure to an individual laser beam is safe.
- Do not assume a moving laser light is safe. Eye injury can occur instantly.
- ORBIT2 must be installed at least 3 metres above ground level and at least 3 metres horizontally from any person. See the Product Installation section for details.
- Do not point the laser at any person or animal.
- Do not point the laser towards any area where people could be exposed to it.
- Do not point the laser towards any reflective surfaces, such as windows, mirrors and metals. Laser reflections can also cause injury.
- Do not point the laser towards any area where you or the operator do not know where it is being directed.
- Do not point the laser into the sky or towards any aircraft.
- The legal requirements for operating laser products vary between jurisdictions. It is the user’s responsibility to meet the legal requirements in the location/country of use.
Additional laser warning stickers (pictured above) are included with this user manual. Please attach these to the power supply.

DMX Chart
The device is controlled by universal DMX 512 protocol, DMX address is the start channel used to receive instructions from the external controller. For independent control, each fixture must be assigned its unique address control channels. For example, this device has three channel modes: 2/11, if we set the mode to standard 2 channels mode, and there are several models that need to be independently controlled, we just simply address first fixture at 1, and second fixture at 3, third one at 5, etc.
- If the devices have the same address, they will behave synchronically.
- Display is flashing when no DMX signal is received.
