3.3.1Power supply

115v ~ 60Hz AC (America’s),

Connected load 500W <=> 4.4 A (blind current compensation) or 230V ~ 50Hz AC (EU),

Connected load 500W <=> 2.2 A (blind current compensation)

Operating voltage is pre-selected at the factory and is not user selectable. Because line voltage may vary from venue to venue, you should be sure your fixture voltage matches that of the outlet. The voltage requirements for the fixture are clearly printed on the side panel near the power cord.

3.3.2DMX-512

3-Pin XLR Input/Output. [+] = Pin 3 / [-] = Pin 2 / [Ground] = Pin 1

3.4DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal protocol used by most lighting and controller manufactures as a form of communication between intelligent fixtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions from the controller to the fixture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from fixture to fixture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA “OUT” terminal). DMX Linking: DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of different manufactures to be linked together and operate from a single controller, as long as all fixtures and the controller are DMX compliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. The order in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle. Therefore, the first fixture controlled by the controller could be the last fixture in the chain. When a fixture is assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to address 1 to that fixture, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.

3.5Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX and Master/Slave Operation): The Power Wash 250B™ can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The Power Wash 250B™ is a 14 channel DMX fixture. The DMX address is set electronically

using the controls on the side panel of the fixture. Your fixture and your DMX
