MonoBright™ LED DAYLIGHT 750 USER MANUAL MonoBright LED Daylight 750 - USER MANUAL 1
Thank you for choosing Genaray. MonoBright™ LED DAYLIGHT 750 INTRODUCTION The Genaray MonoBright™ LED Daylight 750 incorporates the HiBrite microLED PCB in an integrated circuit board to provide energy efficiency, high efficacy, and low heat in a small, lightweight monolight housing. The MonoBright emits an intense 8,000 lux (lx) of continuous light and draws only 50 W to deliver the equivalent output of a 750 W open-face tungsten light.
TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction.................................2-3 The MonoBright offers brightness adjustment from 100%–10%, which can be controlled from either the rear panel or the included 2.4 GHz wireless transmitter. With the transmitter, you can wirelessly adjust output for multiple MonoBright units—even at different outputs— making this a convenient tool for use in a sophisticated lighting setup.

MOUNTING THE MONOBRIGHT 1. Make sure the tilt adjustment knob is fully tightened. INSTRUCTIONS 2. Loosen the locking knob on the mounting socket and mount the MonoBright on your lightstand or other mounting equipment. 3. Tighten the locking knob until secure. You can adjust the tilt of the MonoBright by loosening the tilt adjustment knob. Keep one hand on the light to hold it steady. .
MOUNTING ACCESSORIES INSTRUCTIONS THE ACCESSORY MOUNT After mounting the MonoBright, you will need to attach the reflector or another light modifier. The MonoBright is equipped with an S-type accessory mount for attaching light-shaping tools like softboxes, beauty dishes, and snoots, as well as the included 7˝ umbrella/ grid reflector with an umbrella hole. Before mounting an accessory, remove the transport cover by pulling the accessory release and rotating the transport cover counterclockwise.
INSTRUCTIONS Note: When attaching an accessory with an umbrella hole, such as the included reflector, make sure the accessory’s umbrella hole is aligned with the MonoBright’s umbrella receptacle located above the mounting socket. 2. Insert your accessory into the S-mount and rotate it clockwise until it locks into place. If desired, the included diffuser cover can be stretched over the 7˝ reflector to help soften the light output.
POWERING THE MONOBRIGHT Important! Do not turn on the MonoBright while the transport cover is mounted. AC POWER To power the MonoBright via AC power, make sure the unit is turned off. Connect the AC cable to the AC/DC adapter and a wall outlet, and then connect the adapter’s XLR connector to the MonoBright’s XLR input. INSTRUCTIONS There are two ways to power the MonoBright: AC or a 12 V DC battery. To turn on the MonoBright, press the power switch.
INSTRUCTIONS 12 V DC BATTERY Important! To power the MonoBright via a 12 V DC battery, make sure both the MonoBright and the battery are turned off, and use a compatible Genaray MonoBright battery cable to connect the MonoBright’s DC XLR power socket to your 12 V DC battery. Both the battery and the cable are available separately.
Bi-Color Power Output THE CONTROL Orange ( ) Blue ( ) PANEL Channel None ADJUSTING POWER OUTPUT Channel None Press the knob to switch between power output and channel modes. The status LEDs indicate the current mode. Adjustments are made via the control panel’s dimmer knob. The knob is graduated, so each notch is one increment. Quickly moving the knob will accelerate the speed at which you’ll reach the top or bottom of the scale.
SELECTING CHANNELS INSTRUCTIONS On the MonoBright, 99 channels (1–99) are available. You can use this option with the included wireless transmitter to remotely control your MonoBright. You can also set multiple MonoBright units to different channels and adjust them in unison and at different power outputs. For more information, see The Wireless Transmitter on page 17. 16 MonoBright LED Daylight 750 - USER MANUAL To select a channel via the control panel, make sure the dimmer indicator is not glowing.
THE WIRELESS TRANSMITTER Power Output Blue ( ) Bi-Color Orange ( ) Channel None Press the Mode button to cycle through the three modes. The status LEDs indicate the current mode. Power Output Channel You can use the wireless transmitter to None Bluethe ( )MonoBright unit remotely control from a distance of up to 98´ (30 m). The transmitter lets you adjust power output and activate sleep mode.
INSTRUCTIONS 1. Press the transmitter’s mode ( ) button repeatedly to cycle through the modes until the channel mode appears on the transmitter’s display. In channel mode, neither of the transmitter’s status indicators will glow. Uniform Power Output: 2. Use the plus ( ) and minus ( ) buttons to select the channel. 1. If you are using multiple MonoBright units, make sure they and the transmitter are all set to the same channel.
Multiple Power Outputs: You can create a sophisticated lighting setup by positioning MonoBright units individually or in groups to function as main, fill, accent, and other lights. Setting the units at different power outputs to achieve specific looks affords a professional level of creative control. When using multiple MonoBright units at different output settings, you can adjust them incrementally with a single transmitter while maintaining the difference in their outputs.
a. INSTRUCTIONS b. 20 Press the transmitter’s mode ( ) button repeatedly to cycle through the modes until the channel mode appears on the transmitter’s LED display . In channel mode, neither of the transmitter’s status indicators will glow. Use the plus ( ) and minus ( ) buttons to select the channel that corresponds to the desired MonoBright unit. Press the transmitter’s mode ( ) button repeatedly to cycle through the modes until the transmitter’s blue ( ) status LED glows to indicate output mode.
SLEEP MODE The MonoBright incorporates a sleep mode that is activated by the transmitter. To activate the MonoBright’s sleep mode, press and hold the transmitter’s power ( ) button in output mode until the MonoBright’s LED turns off and “OF” appears on the displays of both the MonoBright and the transmitter. Note: If you turn off the MonoBright via its power switch without exiting sleep mode, the unit will automatically enter sleep mode the next time you turn it on.
