Waterfall™ Set Up

Special Note: Line Termination. When longer runs of cable are used, you may need to use a terminator on the last unit to avoid erratic behavior. A terminator is a 90-120 ohm 1/4 watt resistor which is con- nected between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector (DATA + and DATA -). This unit is inserted in the female XLR connector of the last unit in your daisy chain to terminate the line. Using a cable terminator will decrease the possibilities of erratic behavior.

 

Termination reduces signal errors and

and interference. It is always advisable

to connect a DMX terminal, (Resistance

120Ohm 1/4 W) between PIN 2 (DMX-) and PIN 3 (DMX +) of the last fixture.

Linking: Your unit comes with built in programs. These programs will automatically run to the beat of music. For a more dramatic effect, link several units together. Each unit can act a “Master Unit” that can control up to 3 more units. Link the units together using standard DMX cable. Follow the Master/Slave Dip Switch Chart on page 6 for proper dip switch settings. The built programs are optimized for a four unit chase.

Waterfall™ DMX Addressing

DMX stands for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal binary language used as a form of communication between intelligent fixtures. Each dip switch represents a binary value.

Dip Switch 10 is used to control the Master/Slave operation. Turning dip switch 10 on will activate that unit as a “Master Unit.”

Waterfall™ Operation

Stand Alone: This function is used when using only one unit or running more than one unit as individual fixtures.

A.Set dip switch 10 to the on position (see page 6).

B.Plug the unit in, the unit will react to sound via an internal microphone.

C.Use the audio sensitivity knob on the rear of the unit to make the unit more or less sensitive to sound. Turning the knob in a clock- wise direction will make the unit more sensitive to sound.

Master / Slave Operation: This function will allow you to link up to 4 units together. In this mode, the units will react to sound via the master units internal microphone. The units will also run to the built in programs.

A.Use XLR cables to daisy chain the fixtures together. Remembering the female XLR is the output, and the male XLR is the input.

B.Be sure to follow the dip switch chart on the top of page 6.

C.For longer cable runs, we suggest a terminator at the last fixture in the cable run (see terminator on page 4).

Universal DMX Control: This function allows you to use a universal DMX controller such as the Elation® Show Designer.™ The use of a DMX controller will allow you to customize the use of fixtures allowing you independent control of the color wheel and the ability to black out. This will allow you to create your own programs or use your fixtures as textured color changers.

A.The Waterfall™ is a one channel DMX fixture.

B.When using a DMX controller and setting up for DMX operation follow the standard DMX Binary Code for a one (1) channel unit.

C.For help running in DMX mode consult the manual that comes with your DMX controller.

D.For longer cable runs, we suggest a terminator at the last fixture in the cable run (see terminator on page 4).
