installed following the manufacturer´s instructions.The earth has to be connected! Cord plug connections: Cable Pin International Brown Live L Light blue Neutral N Yellow/Green Earth This device falls under protection class I.Therefore the ArcPower 360 has to be connected to a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing connection. 4.2.Mounting the ArcPower 360 The ArcPower 360 should be be placed on a non-f lammable f lat surface in any orientation and fixed by the 6 screws.
2.RJ45 patch cables category 5 that connect the ArcPower 360 each other are wired 1:1,that is,pins with the same numbers are connected together. Pin 1: Not used Pin 2: Not used Pin 3: Not used Pin 4: Not used Pin 5: Not used Pin 6: Data + Pin 7: Data - Pin 8: GND Pin 1: Not used Pin 2: Not used Pin 3: Not used Pin 4: Not used Pin 5: Not used Pin 6: Data + Pin 7: Data Pin 8: GND 5.Installing instructions. 5.1.DMX operating 1.
Multiple ArcPower 360 installation: Connect the DMX output of the first ArcPower 360 with the DMX input of the next ArcPower 360. Always connect one output with the input of the next ArcPower 360 until all fixtures are connected.In this way,up to 32 fixtures can be chained together. At the last ArcPower 360 the data link has to be terminated with a terminator. A termination plug is simply a RJ45 connector with a 120 Ω resistor between pins Data (–) and Data (+).
5.2.Master-slave operating 1.Unplug from the mains before installation. 2.Connect the LED modules to the fixtures. 3.Connect the DMX output of the master fixture in the data-chain with the DMX input of the first slave. Always connect output with the input of the next slave until all slaves are connected.Up to 32 fixtures can be connected in master/slave chain 4.
5.3. Operating via DyNet protocol 1.Unplug from the mains before installation. 2.Connect LED modules to the fixtures. Connect first fixture to the control panel which uses DyNet protocol (e.g. DLP 8100) 3.Connect the DMX output of the first fixture in a data link with the DMX input of the second fixture. Always connect output with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are connected.Up to 32 fixtures can be connected in data chain. 4.
A description of each byte in DyNet protocol is the following: Byte 0: 1C - hexadecimal Logical Message Byte 1: 01 - Area Byte 2: 00 – Channel level Byte 3: 80 - Channel Byte 4: ff – Channel Offset Byte 5: 00 – Fade Rate Byte 6: FF Byte 7: 1C Checksum (fixed value) (fixed value) Area - (0 to 255), as set on the Arcpower to give a unique address for each Arcpower unit (i.e.

8.Control board The control panel situated on the top cover of the ArcPower 360 allows DMX addressing,calling Built-in programs and setting the fixture behaviour Control elements: [ENTER] button- enters menu,confirms adjusted values and leaves menu. , [UP] button and[DOWN] button- moves between menu items on the the same level, sets values. In order to leave the menu without saving value,press [UP] and [DOWN ] at the same time.
1. Enter "EdI." menu 2. Press [UP] or [DOWN] to select the desired program which you wish to edit and press [ENTER]. 3. Press [UP] or [DOWN] to select the desired program step ("S.01" - "S.30") and press [ENTER]. 4. Press [UP] or [DOWN] to select the desired item and press [ENTER]-button.Now you can edit by using [UP] or [DOWN] buttons the DMX values selected item (the list of items depends on selected DMX mode): "End" - a total number of the program steps (value 1-30).
8.4 Test sequences Use the item to run a special demo-test sequences without an external controller,which will show you some possibilities of using the fixture. 8.5 Stand-alone mode Select this menu to set fixture behaviour in stand-alone mode without an external controller. Synchronous operation of multiple fixtures requires that they must be connected on a data link and one of them is set as a master ("MSt") and the rest as the slaves ("SLA").Only one fixture can be set as the master.
Prt --- Protocol selection - Selects a required communication protocol. dMH - the fixture will communicate using DMX 512 signal. dYn - the fixture will communicate using the DyNet protocol. d.On. --- Display permanent on - If this item is set On, the fixture´s display lights permanent. If this item is OFF, the display will be extinguished 2 minutes after last button pressing. SA.d. --- Safe as default - If you press this item, the current DMX value for each effect will be saved to driver´s memory.
