1. GETTING STARTED
What’s In The Box?
• 1 x G-Mix™ 200
• An Ever-So-Handy Power Cord
• 1 x Set of Mounting Brackets
• This Lovely User Manual
Getting It Out Of The Box
Congratulations on your purchase of the G-Mix™ 200! Now that you’ve got your G-Mix™
200 (or hopefully more)
, you should carefully unpack the box and check the contents to
ensure that all parts are present 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 carton and all packing materials. If a xture must be
returned to the factory, it is important that the xture be returned in the original factory
box and packing.
Powering Up!
All xtures must be powered directly o a switched circuit and cannot be run o a
rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer
channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch.
See the label on the xture or refer to the xture’s specications for more information.
The listed current rating is its average current draw under normal conditions. All xtures
must be connected to circuits with a suitable Ground (Earthing).
DISCLAIMER:
The power connector tted to the xture and xture cord are designed for compatibility
with products manufactured by Neutrik AG, Neutrik USA and their related entities, however
they are not manufactured by, aliated with or endorsed by Neutrik AG, Neutrik USA, or

3. SETUP
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 G-Mix™ 200 Fixtures
You will need a serial data link to run light shows using a DMX-512
controller or to run shows on two or more xtures set to sync in mas-
ter/slave operating mode. The combined number of channels required
by all the xtures on a serial data link determines the number of x-
tures the data link can support.
Fixtures on a serial data link must be daisy chained in one single line.
Also, connecting more than 32 xtures on one serial data link without
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
of xtures on a serial data link is 32 xtures.
Data/DMX Cabling
To link xtures together you’ll need data cables. You should use data-
grade cables that can carry a high quality signal and are less prone to
electromagnetic interference.
For instance, Belden© 9841 meets the specications for EIA RS-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 the fuse, disconnect the power cord.
ALWAYS replace it with the same type and rating.

G-Mix™ 200 User Manual - Rev. C (c) 2019 Blizzard Lighting, LLC
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’s chassis ground. Grounding the common can cause a ground
loop, and your xture may perform erratically. Test cables with an
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-
stalled 5-pin DMX input and/or output connections found on the back of your xture(s).
Conductor 3-Pin Female (Output) 5-Pin Male (Input)
Ground/Shield Pin 1 Pin 1
Data 1- (Primary Data Link) Pin 2 Pin 2
Data 1+ (Primary Data Link) Pin 3 Pin 3
Data 2- (Optional Secondary Data Link) Pin 4 Pin 4
Data 2+ (Optional Secondary Data Link) Pin 5 Pin 5
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
DMX cable to the rst xture’s male connector
(input). Note: It doesn’t matter which
xture address is the rst one connected. We
recommend connecting the xtures in terms
of their proximity to the controller, rather than
connecting the lowest xture number rst, and
so on.
Step 3: Connect other xtures in the chain
from output to input as above. Place a DMX
terminator on the output of the nal xture to
ensure best communication.

G-Mix™ 200 User Manual - Rev. C (c) 2019 Blizzard Lighting, LLC
Fixture Linking (Master/Slave Mode)
1. Connect the (male) 3/5-pin connector side of the
DMX cable to the output (female) 3/5-pin connector
of the rst xture.
2. Connect the end of the cable coming from the
rst xture which will have a (female) 3/5-pin
connector to the input connector of the next xture
consisting of a (male) 3/5-pin connector. Then,
proceed to connect from the output as stated above
to the input of the following xture and so on.
A quick note: Often,
the setup for Master-
Slave and Standalone
operation requires that
the rst xture in the
chain be initialized for
this purpose via either
settings in the control
panel or DIP-switches.
Secondarily, the xtures
that follow may also
require a slave setting.
Check the “Operating Adjustments” section in this manual for com-
plete instructions for this type of setup and conguration.
Mounting & Rigging
This xture may be mounted in any SAFE position provided there is
enough room for ventilation.
It is important never to obstruct the fan or vents pathway. Mount the
xture using a suitable “C” or “O” type clamp. The clamp should be
rated to hold at least 10x the xture’s weight to ensure structural sta-
bility. Do not mount to surfaces with unknown strength, and ensure
properly “rated” rigging is used when mounting xtures overhead.
Adjust the angle of the xture by loosening both knobs and tilting the
xture. After nding the desired position, retighten both knobs.
• When selecting installation location, take into consideration lamp
replacement access (if applicable) and routine maintenance.
• Safety cables MUST ALWAYS be used.
• Never mount in places where the xture will be exposed to rain,
high humidity, extreme temperature changes or restricted ventilation.

G-Mix™ 200 User Manual - Rev. C (c) 2019 Blizzard Lighting, LLC
Mounting Points
Overhead mounting requires extensive experience, which includes
calculating working load limits, knowledge of the installation material
being used, and periodic safety inspection of all installation material
and the xture. If you lack these qualications, do not attempt the
installation yourself. Improper installation can result in bodily injury.
Caution!
Please be aware, you should have a qualied electrician performing all
of your electrical connection needs.
Be sure to complete all rigging and installation procedures before
connecting the main power cord to the appropriate wall outlet.
