DESIGN LED 12 BRICK™ 6. MOUNTING AND INSTALLATION Yoke Assembly – Single Unit Operation The device can be placed directly on the stage floor or rigged in any orientation on a truss without altering its operation characteristics. When connecting the hanging yoke to the fixture, refer to the illustration below. Yoke Assembly – Multiple Unit Operation You can connect up to four Design LED 12 Bricks together in a bar assembly.
DESIGN LED 12 BRICK™ Please note: To ensure maximum stability, no more than for units should be mounted together in this fashion. Connecting more than four units will result in an unstable assembly, which could collapse and damage the units. Cautions: For added protection mount the fixtures in areas outside walking paths, seating areas, and away from areas were the fixture might be reached by unauthorized personal.
DESIGN LED 12 BRICK™ Mounting The Design LED 12 Brick™ is fully operational in three different mounting positions, hanging upside-down from a ceiling, side mounted, or set on a flat level surface. Be sure this fixture is kept at least 0.5m away from any flammable materials (decoration etc.). When clamp mounting; always use and install the supplied safety cable as an added safety measure to prevent accidental damage in the event of a clamp failure. See the image below.
DESIGN LED 12 BRICK™ CAUTION! Be sure all electrical connections are performed by a qualified electrician before attempting any operation. Clamp Mounting The Design LED 12 Brick™ provides a unique mounting bracket assembly that allows the unit to stand on flat surface, hang on truss via a clamp, or be used in cluster allow multiple units to rigged together (see the illustration below).
DESIGN LED 12 BRICK™ Securing the Design LED 12 Brick™ Always be sure to secure your fixture with a safety cable when suspending the unit from truss or other means. The fixture provides a built-in rigging point for a safety cable as illustrated above. Be sure to only use the designated rigging point for the safety cable and never secure a safety cable to the hanging bracket. ©Elation Professional, Los Angeles Ca. 15 www.ElationLighting.
DESIGN LED 12 BRICK™ 7. UNDERSTANDING DMX Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX and Master/Slave Operation): Your fixture and your DMX controller require a standard 3-pin XLR connector for data input and data output (see figure below). Be sure to only use properly rated DMX cables for DMX operation and not standrd audio cables.
DESIGN LED 12 BRICK™ Always be sure daisy chain your in and out data connections, never split or “Y” your DMX connections unless you are using an approved DMX splitter such as the Elation Opto Branch 4™ or DMX Branch/4™. DMX-512 connection with DMX terminator When longer runs of cable are used, you may need to use a terminator on the last fixture to avoid erratic behavior. A terminator is a 120 ohm 1/4 watt resistor that is connected between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector (DATA + and DATA -).
DESIGN LED 12 BRICK™ Understanding Fixture DMX addressing; All fixtures should be given a DMX starting address when using a DMX controller, so the correct fixture responds to the correct control signal. This digital starting address is the channel number from which the fixture starts to “listen” to the digital control information sent out from the DMX controller. The allocation of this starting DMX address is achieved by combining various dipswitches located on the rear of the fixture.
DESIGN LED 12 BRICK™ 8. OPERATING MODES This fixture can run in three different DMX modes. The chart below describes how to access the different DMX modes. The chart below also defines the how the channel will function in the different DMX modes.
