ETL version:
This version of ArcPower 36 is equipped with auto-switching power supply that automatically adjusts to any
50/60Hz AC power source from 100-120 Volts.
Connect the ArcPower 36 directly to AC power with the supply cord.
This device falls under protection class I.Therefore the ArcPower 36 has to be con-
nected to a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.
4.2.Mounting the ArcPower 36
The ArcPower 36 should be be placed on a non-f lammable f lat surface in any orientation and xed by the two
screws.There are two mounting holes of diameter 5 mm in housing of the driver. Ensure that instalation place
is enough ventilated.
4.3.Conection cables
1.The adapter cable RJ45/XLR connects the ArcPower 36 to the DMX controller.If your DMX controller has
RJ45 socket for DMX output,use RJ45 patch cable for connection with the ArcPower 36.

5.Installing instructions.
5.1.DMX operating
1.Unplug from the mains before installation.
2.Connect the LED modules to the xture.
3.Connect DMX controller to the xture
4.Connect the xture to the mains
5.Set the DMX address on the control board of the xture (see chapter "Control board").
Warning!
Accidental connection DMX 512 Input/Output to non-DMX 512 device (e.g.Ethernet
network Hub) can damage the ArcPower 36.
Maximum total cable length between Arcpower 36 and all connected LED modules
is 80 metres.
Single ArcPower 36 installation:
Multiple ArcPower 36 installation:
Connect the DMX output of the rst ArcPower 36 with the DMX input of the next ArcPower 36. Always connect
one output with the input of the next ArcPower 36 until all xtures are connected.In this way,up to 32 xtures
can be chained together.
At the last ArcPower 36 the data link has to be terminated with a terminator. A termination plug is simply a
RJ45 connector with a 120 Ω resistor between pins Data (–) and Data (+).Plug terminator in the DMX output
of the last ArcPower 36.
Maximum number of LEDs connected to the one ArcPower 36 is 42 (but maximum12 LEDs per colour).

5.2.Master-slave operating
1.Unplug from the mains before installation.
2.Connect the LED module to the xtures.
3.Connect the DMX output of the master xture in the data-chain with the DMX input of the rst slave. Always
connect output with the input of the next slave until all slaves are connected.Up to 32 xtures can be connected
in master/slave chain
4.Insert the termination plug (with 120 Ohm) into DMX input of the master xture and into the DMX output of
the last slave xture in the link in order to ensure proper transmission on the data link.
5.Connect the xtures to the mains.
6.See chapter "Stand-alone mode" in order to set the xture as a master or slave.
