Introduction
Welcome
Welcome to the Dyna Drum HO range from Acclaim Lighting. These ruggedized LED-
powered fixtures are designed to replace traditional external flood lights while using
a fraction of the power. Featuring a die-cast aluminum body throughout with full IP66
environmental rating, these fixtures are built to last.
External control using the industry standard DMX-512A is supported or you can opt to
create static or chasing color outputs internally using the intuitive user menu.
A range of spread lenses and snoots are available to widen and restrict the light output as
required so that it perfectly matches your installation.
Safety
•When fixtures are mounted off-ground, ensure that a suitably rated safety wire is used to
attach the fixture to a secure secondary point.
•Ensure that the power input is supplied from a correctly fused, earthed and
environmentally protected location.

Installation
Mounting the unit
Each Dyna Drum HO fixture includes a sturdy yoke mount with multiple holes in its base
for various fixing options. Dyna Drum HO fixtures weigh 30lbs (13.6Kg) - ensure that the
mounting surface and the fixings used are sufficiently rated for the task (including wind
shear forces).
Safety wire
anchor hole
IMPORTANT: When mounting a Dyna
Drum HO xture o ground, ensure
that a safety wire (with a SWL rating
of at least 30lbs (13.6Kg)) links the
anchor hole at the rear of the Dyna
Drum HO with a suitably sturdy
secondary xing point.
The yoke adjusters on each side of the
Dyna Drum HO require a 5/16”(8mm)
hex key to focus the fixture.
A useful angle chart is provided on each
side to assist with initial adjustment.
Use a 5/16” or
8mm hex key
Angle chart
When installing each Dyna Drum HO fixture, ensure that the surface
is level and that nothing is protruding to damage the mounting
yoke. The yoke has three mounting holes and is designed to be
surface mounted. Approved mounting surfaces include steel,
aluminum, concrete or wood structures. Bolts or screws (not
supplied) should be suitable for the surface and ensure a secure
mount for the fixture.

Fitting optional snoots
Snoots help to reduce
or eliminate light spill
into unwanted areas.
The full and half snoots
available from Acclaim
Lighting are attached
to the Dyna Drum HO
units in the same way:
Trim
ring
Silicone
ring
Lens
Full or half
snoot
Fitting optional spread lenses
The Dyna Drum HO fixtures have
a 6oor 10o(QW models) beam
angle as standard. You can
widen these using one of
the optional spread lens
kits.
Note: It is possible to use both
a spread lens and a snoot. Fit
the lens, silicone ring and trim
ring, then add the snoot and
then secure all these items with
four screws.
Tip: All of this is much easier if
the Dyna Drum HO front face is
pointing vertically upwards.
IMPORTANT: Ensure the frosted
side of the lens is facing
inwards to the emitters.

Power and control wiring
The power and control cords (roughly five feet, 1.5m in length) enter the casing via water-
tight glands at the rear of the fixture. As standard the cords are supplied as bare tails.
Power
The power requirements are as follows:
•Voltage: 100-277VAC 50/60Hz
•Power: 228W at steady state
The power cord color designations are as follows:

In-rush current
Although LED fixtures are low power devices compared to their incandescent equivalents,
their power supplies exhibit a trait known as ‘in-rush current’ when they are first powered
on. This is caused by the various components within the switching power supplies topping
themselves up with power. The in-rush current period lasts only milliseconds and does not
cause any effect when a handful of units are powered on at the exact same time. However,
if many fixtures are linked to the same power input, they will momentarily pull a current that
may greatly exceed their normal operating level. This may affect over-current trips when
power is applied. For this reason it is advisable to limit the number of fixtures on any one
power input.
7
Control
The control cord has five cores
to provide DMX512-A input and
output connections:
When connecting multiple fixtures, connect the DMX control input lines to the first fixture
and feed the output of that fixture to the next. The final fixture in the line should have a
120Ω terminating resistor connected between the DMX + and DMX – lines:
Tips for achieving successful DMX control
•Do not exceed a total cable length of 3,900 ft (1200m) without buffering.
•Do not exceed a total of 32 fixtures on a single line without buffering.
•Use only connection cables with a characteristic impedance of 120Ω, preferably where
the DMX + and DMX – data lines are twisted around each other and the ground link exists
as a coaxial screen surrounding the inner cores.
•Connect a 120Ω terminating resistor between the DMX + and DMX – output connections
of the final fixture.
•Do not introduce a passive Y-split into the control cabling. If it is necessary to split the
control link in order feed fixtures located in different directions, use a powered DMX
splitter/buffer.
•Ensure that the DMX + and DMX – connections do not become crossed at any point.

Operation
Operation of the fixture will commence as soon as
power is applied and the user display on the rear
panel will first show ACCL (Acclaim) and then either
show Addror a DMX address number (if a valid
DMX input is present). The fixture may or may not
immediately show output from its emitters - this will
depend upon the settings within the menu and/or
control input.
Note: The sealed control buttons use capacitive sensors
similar to your smartphone screen and will not respond
to touch if you are wearing gloves.
Entering the menu
Press and hold the MENU button for roughly 8 seconds until the Addr entry flashes. You can
now access the menu.
If the keylock feature has been enabled (see page 13), ‘0’ will flash on the display. Enter the
password (between 1 and 9999) using the and buttons and press the ENTER button.
Note: The menu will automatically exit one minute after the last button press. While the menu
remains active, all emitter output will be suppressed.
Menu navigation
Once you have entered the menu you can use the four control buttons to navigate around
the menu and alter settings as necessary. The next two pages list the main menu items.
