Getting It Out Of The Box
Congratulations on your purchase of LOOP™, the LED moving head packed with tons
of beamy, loopy goodness! Now that you’ve got your LOOP™ (or hopefully LOOPs)
, you
should carefully unpack the box and check the contents to ensure that all parts are pres-
ent 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
cartonandallpackingmaterials.Ifaxturemustbereturnedtothefactory,itisimpor-
tantthatthexturebereturnedintheoriginalfactoryboxandpacking.
Powering Up!

rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer
channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch.

Fuse Replacement
Remove the fuse holder from of its housing. Then take out the dam-
aged fuse from its holder and replace with exact same type of fuse.
Reattach the fuse holder, and then reconnect power.
Connecting A Bunch of LOOP™ Fixtures
You will need a serial data link to run light shows using a DMX-512
controllerortorunshowsontwoormorexturessettosyncinmas-
ter/slave operating mode. The combined number of channels required
byallthexturesonaserialdatalinkdeterminesthenumberofx-
tures the data link can support.
Fixtures on a serial data link must be daisy chained in one single line.
Also,connectingmorethan32xturesononeserialdatalinkwithout
the use of a DMX optically-isolated splitter may result in deterioration
of the digital DMX signal. The maximum recommended cable-run dis-
tance is 500 meters (1640 ft). The maximum recommended number
ofxturesonaserialdatalinkis32xtures.
Data/DMX Cabling
Tolinkxturestogetheryou’llneeddatacables.Youshouldusedata-
grade cables that can carry a high quality signal and are less prone to
electromagnetic interference.
Forinstance,Belden©9841meetsthespecicationsforEIARS-485
applications. Standard microphone cables will “probably” be OK, but
note that they cannot transmit DMX data as reliably over long distanc-
es. In any event, the cable should have the following characteristics:
2-conductor twisted pair plus a shield
Maximum capacitance between conductors – 30 pF/ft.
Maximum capacitance between conductor & shield – 55 pF/ft.
Maximum resistance of 20 ohms / 1000 ft.
Nominal impedance 100 – 140 ohms
Before replacing a fuse, disconnect the power cord.
ALWAYS replace with the same type and rating of fuse.

Cable Connectors
Cables must have a male XLR connector on one end and a female XLR connec-
tor on the other end. (Duh!)
CAUTION: Do not allow contact between the common and the
xture’schassisground.Groundingthecommoncancauseaground
loop,andyourxturemayperformerratically.Testcableswithan
ohm meter to verify correct polarity and to make sure the pins are not
grounded or shorted to the shield or each other.
3-Pin??? 5-Pin??? Huh?!?
If you use a controller with a 5-pin DMX output connector, it’s no problem! you can simply use the in-
stalled5-pinDMXinputand/oroutputconnectionsfoundonthebackofyourxture(s).

Take It To The Next Level: Setting Up DMX Control
Step 1: Connect the male connector of the DMX cable to the female connector (output) on
the controller.
Step 2: Connect the female connector of the

so on.
Step 3:Connectotherxturesinthechain
