Getting It Out Of The Box

Congratulations on your purchase of LOOP™, the LED moving head packed with tons

of beamy, loopy goodness! Now that you’ve got your LOOP™ (or hopefully LOOPs)

, you

should carefully unpack the box and check the contents to ensure that all parts are pres-

ent and in good condition. If anything looks as if it has been damaged in transit, notify the

shipper immediately and keep the packing material for inspection. Again, please save the

cartonandallpackingmaterials.Ifaxturemustbereturnedtothefactory,itisimpor-

tantthatthexturebereturnedintheoriginalfactoryboxandpacking.

Powering Up!

Allxturesmustbepowereddirectlyoaswitchedcircuitandcannot be run o a

rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer

channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch.

AC Voltage Switch -Notallxtureshaveavoltageselectswitch,sopleaseverifythatthe

xtureyoureceiveissuitableforyourlocalpowersupply.Seethelabelonthextureor

refertothexture’sspecicationschartformoreinformation.Axture’slistedcurrent

ratingisitsaveragecurrentdrawundernormalconditions.Checkthextureordevice

carefully to make sure that if a voltage selection switch exists that it is set to the correct

line voltage you will use.

Warning! Verify that the voltage select switch on your unit matches the line

voltage applied. Damage to your xture may result if the line voltage applied does

not match the voltage indicated on the voltage selector switch. All xtures must

be connected to circuits with a suitable Ground (Earthing).

else, be sure that they also receive this User Guide.

• ALWAYS make sure that you are connecting to the proper voltage, and that

the line voltage you are connecting to is not higher than that stated on the de-

calorrearpanelofthexture.

• This product is intended for indoor use only.

•Topreventriskofreorshock,donotexposexturetorainormoisture.

•Makesuretherearenoammablematerialsclosetotheunitwhileoperating.

• The unit must be installed in a location with adequate ventilation, at least

20in(50cm)fromadjacentsurfaces.Besurethatnoventilationslotsare

blocked.

• ALWAYS disconnect from the power source before servicing or replacing fuse

Fuse Replacement

Remove the fuse holder from of its housing. Then take out the dam-

aged fuse from its holder and replace with exact same type of fuse.

Reattach the fuse holder, and then reconnect power.

Connecting A Bunch of LOOP™ Fixtures

You will need a serial data link to run light shows using a DMX-512

controllerortorunshowsontwoormorexturessettosyncinmas-

ter/slave operating mode. The combined number of channels required

byallthexturesonaserialdatalinkdeterminesthenumberofx-

tures the data link can support.

Fixtures on a serial data link must be daisy chained in one single line.

Also,connectingmorethan32xturesononeserialdatalinkwithout

the use of a DMX optically-isolated splitter may result in deterioration

of the digital DMX signal. The maximum recommended cable-run dis-

tance is 500 meters (1640 ft). The maximum recommended number

ofxturesonaserialdatalinkis32xtures.

Data/DMX Cabling

Tolinkxturestogetheryou’llneeddatacables.Youshouldusedata-

grade cables that can carry a high quality signal and are less prone to

electromagnetic interference.

Forinstance,Belden©9841meetsthespecicationsforEIARS-485

applications. Standard microphone cables will “probably” be OK, but

note that they cannot transmit DMX data as reliably over long distanc-

es. In any event, the cable should have the following characteristics:

2-conductor twisted pair plus a shield

Maximum capacitance between conductors – 30 pF/ft.

Maximum capacitance between conductor & shield – 55 pF/ft.

Maximum resistance of 20 ohms / 1000 ft.

Nominal impedance 100 – 140 ohms

Before replacing a fuse, disconnect the power cord.

ALWAYS replace with the same type and rating of fuse.

3. SETUP

Page 8

Cable Connectors

Cables must have a male XLR connector on one end and a female XLR connec-

tor on the other end. (Duh!)

CAUTION: Do not allow contact between the common and the

xture’schassisground.Groundingthecommoncancauseaground

loop,andyourxturemayperformerratically.Testcableswithan

ohm meter to verify correct polarity and to make sure the pins are not

grounded or shorted to the shield or each other.

3-Pin??? 5-Pin??? Huh?!?

If you use a controller with a 5-pin DMX output connector, it’s no problem! you can simply use the in-

stalled5-pinDMXinputand/oroutputconnectionsfoundonthebackofyourxture(s).

Conductor 3-Pin Female (Output) 5-Pin Male (Input)

Ground/Shield Pin 1 Pin 1

Data 1- (Primary Data Link) Pin 2 Pin 2

Data 1+ (Primary Data Link) Pin 3 Pin 3

Data 2- (Optional Secondary Data Link) Pin 4 Pin 4

Data 2+ (Optional Secondary Data Link) Pin 5 Pin 5

Take It To The Next Level: Setting Up DMX Control

Step 1: Connect the male connector of the DMX cable to the female connector (output) on

the controller.

Step 2: Connect the female connector of the

DMXcabletotherstxture’smaleconnector

(input). Note: It doesn’t matter which

xtureaddressistherstoneconnected.We

recommendconnectingthexturesinterms

of their proximity to the controller, rather than

connectingthelowestxturenumberrst,and

so on.

Step 3:Connectotherxturesinthechain

from output to input as above. Place a DMX

terminatorontheoutputofthenalxtureto

ensure best communication.

Installation

Thexturecanbeinstalledontheoorrestingonitsrubberfeet,ormounted

on truss.

●Chooseasuitableplacetoputorhangtheequipmentwheninstalling.When

hangingthexture,usetheincludedclampmountingbracketswithsuitable

clampstoproperlysupporttheweightofthexture.

●Wheninstallingtheequipment,ensurethatnoammableorexplosivemateri-

als are within 1/2 meter distance.

●Pleaseaskprofessionalstoinstalltheequipment.Anyimproperinstallation

cancausepersonalinjuryormaterialdamage.

●Theequipmentmustbeplacedinaventilatedarea,atleast50cmfromthe

ground, and always ensure that the vents are not clogged.

●Mountthextureusingsuitabletypeclamps.Theclampshouldberated

toholdatleast10xthexture’sweighttoensurestructuralstability.Donot

mount to surfaces with unknown strength, and ensure properly “rated” rigging

isusedwhenmountingxturesoverhead.

WARNING:Withtheexceptionofwhenthextureispositionedon

theoor,asafetycablemustalwaysbeused.Itmustbesecurelyxed

tothesupportstructureoftheprojectorandthenconnectedtothex-

ing point at the center of the base.
