IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Fire prevention:
Never locate the fixture on any flammable surface.
Minimum distance from flammable materials: 10 cm
Replace any blown or damaged fuses only with those of identical value
Prevention from electric shock:
High voltage is present inside the unit.
Unplug the unit prior to performing any operation which involves touching the inside of the unit.
This equipment must be grounded, do not connect to non-grounded supplies.
Use only AC supplies 90-260V, 50-60Hz
The unit should never be located in position exposed to rain or in areas of extreme humidity.
A good air ventilation is essential for proper equipment work.
Safety:
The external surface of the unit may exceed 50°C; never handle the unit until at least 5 minutes
have elapsed since the unit was turned off.
Never install the unit in an enclosed area lacking sufficient air flow.
The ambient temperature should not exceed 40°C and should not be lower than -10°C

For application where IP65 rating is not necessary, Z8 LEDs cabling connection can be done with a
standard UTP B2 category 5E cable.
For IP65 rating application, D.T.S. reccomed the use of a IP65/68 cable as the
multipolar black outdoor cable (D.T.S. Code: 0509C062).
The Maximum distance between the Z8 and the last LED unit in the line should not exceed
meters FOS 100 RGBA / WHITE, FOS 33 RGBA / WHITE (3pcs on the same line).

DMX SIGNAL CONNECTION:
The unit operates using a digital DMX 512 signal. Connection between the controller and the unit or
between units must be carried out using a two pair screened ø 0.5 mm cable and a CANNON XLR 5 pins
connector.
P.S:If the display showing the DMX address flashes, then one of the following errors has occurred:
- DMX signal not present
- DMX reception problem
For Installations where long distance DMX cable connections are needed, we suggest to use a DMX
terminator.
The DMX terminator is a male XLR 3-5 pins connector with a 120 ohm resistor Between pin 2 and 3.
The DMX terminator must be plugged into the last unit (DMX out panel connector) of the DMX line.
Ensure that the conductors do not touch each other. Do not connect the cable ground to the XLR
chassis. The plug housing must be isolated. Connect the mixer signal to the DMX IN of the Z8 plug and
connect it to the next unit by connecting the DMX OUT plug on the first Z8 to the DMX IN plug of the
second one.
This way, all the projectors are cascade connected.

DMX ADDRESS
Z8 LED CONTROLLER can be used in 8 DMX modes: 112 ch, 80 ch, 64 ch, 32 ch,14 ch, 10 ch,
1ch or CUSTOM channels mode.
Full type - 8 bit
If you want to select the next projector, just add “32”
Z1 type - 8 bit
Projector 1 A001
Projector 2 A011 If you want to select the next projector, just add “10”
Projector 3 A021
….. A….
projector 6 A051
Selelcting the DMX address
1) Press the UP-DOWN key until you reach the required DMX address. The numbers on the
display will start flashing (but the new DMX address hasn't yet been set).
2) Press ENTER to confirm your selection. The numbers on the display will stop flashing and the
projector is now controlled by the new DMX address.
TIPS: if you keep pushed the UP or DOWN keys, the channels are calculated more quickly and
you get a faster selection.
If you want to use the Z8 in 32 channels mode, select the “ ” mode from the
DMX MODE menu under MODE SETTINGS and set the following addresses on the mixer:
Projector 1 A001
Projector 2 A033
Projector 3 A065
….. A….
projector 6 A161
If you want to use the Z8 in 10 channels mode, select the “ ” mode from the
DMX MODE menu under MODE SETTINGS and set the following addresses on the mixer:
