What’s In The Box?
• 1 x LightCaster™ Wireless DMX Transceiver
• 1 x Antenna
• An AC power adaptor (12VDC, 500ma)
Getting It Out Of The Box
The LightCaster Wireless DMX Transceiver is a teeny-tiny, really power-
ful, really useful tool for decableifying your existence. Just think, no more
becoming wrapped from head to toe in DMX cables and struggling to escape
for hours on end. Whew! Well, now that you’ve got your LightCaster™, you
should carefully unpack the box and check the contents to ensure that all
parts are present 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 ma-
terials. If a fi xture must be returned to the factory, it is important that the
fi xture be returned in the original factory box and packing.
Powering Up!
All fi xtures must be powered directly off a switched circuit and cannot be
run off a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the
rheostat or dimmer channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch.
Getting A Hold Of Us
If something is wrong, just give us a call or send an email. We’ll be
happy to help, honest.
