SETUP Lamp You will need to install a lamp prior to the initial operation of the fixture. An ELC3 250W halogen lamp is included. Warning! When replacing the lamp, please wait 15 minutes after powering down to allow the unit to cool down! Always disconnect from main power prior to lamp replacement. Do not touch the envelope (glass area) of the bulb with bare hands. If this happens, clean the lamp with alcohol and wipe it with a lint free cloth before installation.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Operating Modes The DMX-150SQ can be operated in three ways. A stand-alone mode will listen to sound and run through its diverse range of built in programs. An optional CH-X wired controller provides remote blackout control. Master/Slave mode will allow the command of up to as many units you want in a synchronized light show to the sound. DMX control mode will provide the greatest flexibility and creativity.
Operating Instructions on the channel indicated by the start address. For example, a fixture that occupies or uses 6 channels of DMX and was addressed to start on DMX channel 100, would read data from channels: 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, and 105. Choose start addresses so that the channels used do not overlap and notate the start address selected for future reference.
APPENDIX DMX Primer There are 512 channels in a DMX-512 connection. Channels may be assigned in any manner. A fixture capable of receiving DMX 512 will require one or a number of sequential channels. The user must assign a starting address on the fixture that indicates the first channel reserved in the controller. There are many different types of DMX controllable fixtures and they all may vary in the total number of channels required. Choosing a start address should be planned in advance.
