Getting It Out Of The Box

CongratulationsonpurchasingoneofthecoolestLEDxturesanywhere!Nowthat

you’re the proud owner of a Puck Pro Zoom™ EXA (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offaswitchedcircuitandcannot be run off a

rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer

channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch.

AC Voltage Switch -Notallxtureshaveavoltageselectswitch,sopleaseverifythat

thextureyoureceiveissuitableforyourlocalpowersupply.Seethelabelonthe

xtureorrefertothexture’sspecicationschartformoreinformation.Axture’s

listed current rating is its average current draw under normal conditions. Check the

xtureordevicecarefullytomakesurethatifavoltageselectionswitchexiststhatitis

set to the correct line voltage you will use.

Warning! Verify that the voltage select switch on your unit matches the line

voltage applied. Damage to your xture may result if the line voltage applied

does not match the voltage indicated on the voltage selector switch. All

xtures must be connected to circuits with a suitable Ground (Earthing).

Getting A Hold Of Us

3. SETUP

Fuse Replacement

CAUTION! The Puck Pro Zoom™ EXA utilizes a high-output switch-

mode power supply with an internal fuse. Under normal operating

conditions,thefuseshouldnotrequirereplacement.Thefuseiseld

replaceable,howeveritisanadvancedproceduresuitedtoqualied

individuals. Should your Puck Pro Zoom™ EXA fuse require replacement,

please contact Blizzard Lighting for instructions, or to return your unit for

service.

Connecting A Bunch of Puck Pro Zoom™ EXA 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master/

slave operating mode. The combined number of channels required by all

thexturesonaserialdatalinkdeterminesthenumberofxtures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 distance 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specicationsforEIARS-485

applications. Standard microphone cables will “probably” be OK, but note

that they cannot transmit DMX data as reliably over long distances. 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

USING THIS FIXTURE WITH THE wiCICLE® WIRELESS

DMX SYSTEM

In addition to the unbridled thrill you already

receivedthersttimeyoupluggedinyourx-

ture,you’llbedelightedtoknowthatThisx-

ture also works seamlessly with our wiCICLE®

Wireless DMX system, without additional power.

•ONLYxturesbearingthislogoarecertiedforusewiththewiCICLE®

without external power.

• Unauthorized modication and/or using the wiCICLE®with un-

approved xtures may cause damage to the wiCICLE® or xture.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES IS BLIZZARD LIGHTING RESPON-

SIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE FROM SUCH OPERATION.

• Fixtures bearing the above logo MUST only use cable and connectors

which separate chassis/case ground from cable shielding. Cabling with

the shield connected to the connector’s case/chassis may cause malfunc-

tion and damage to the wiCICLE®orxture.

• wiCICLE®transmitters have additional power requirements and

thereforecannotbepowereddirectlyfromthexture.Youwill

need to utilize the supplied AC/DC adaptor to drive wiCICLE®

transmitters in your system.

Each wiCICLE®acts as both a transmitter and a receiver, depending on whether a

DMX source is applied to the integral XLR connector. This is an extremely pow-

erful feature of the system, however, it also requires 1 piece of due dilligence,

and that is the removal of extraneous DMX signals from your lighting rig BEFORE

proceeding.

SO: BEFORE DOING ANYTHING ELSE, YOU SHOULD DISABLE ANY BUILT-

IN PROGRAMS IN THE FIXTURES YOU WISH TO CONNECT AND/OR SET

THEM AS SLAVES PRIOR TO RETURNING THEM TO DMX MODE (IF APPLI-

CABLE). Most xtures contain a built-in automatic, sound active or cus-

tom program which is designed to operate with the xture NOT connected

to a DMX chain.

Someoftheseprogramswillautomaticallyrununlessthextureissettoslave

mode.ThesexturestypicallysenseDMXautomaticallyandswitchtoDMXmode

upon receiving DMX signal (our Pucks do that!)

If you plug a wiCICLE®“receiver”intoanautosensingxturesetasa“master,

“chances are good that the wiCICLE®“receiver” will begin transmitting the master

program. Most times, this is undesirable, and taking the two seconds to switch

these programs off will solve a lot of ails.

Got that done? Good! Then let’s proceed!

1. Plug the wiCICLE®Receiverintothe“DMXIN”connectorofthextureand

verify it is receiving power (the STATUS LED should illuminate.)

2. Connect the AC/DC adaptor to the the wiCICLE®Transmitter and verify it is

receiving power (the STATUS LED should illuminate.)

3. Press the RECESSED SELECTOR BUTTON on the Transmitter to select the

operating channel group. (The system will store this setting for future use)

The 7-Color Status LED will change color to indicate the current channel group:

· GROUP 1: RED

· GROUP 2: GREEN

· GROUP 3: YELLOW

· GROUP 4: BLUE

· GROUP 5: VIOLET

· GROUP 6: CYAN

· GROUP 7: WHITE

4. Follow the same procedure on the Receiver to select the channel group.

5. Once both the transmitter and receiver(s) are both set to the same channel

group,connectthetransmittertotheDMXcontrollerortheDMXoutofaxture

on your DMX chain.

6. Once a DMX signal is provided to the transmitter, the status LED will blink RED

slowly until communication is established with the receiver. The status LED on

thereceiver(s)willashGREEN slowly until communication is established.

7. Once the clearest channel is auto-selected, the status LEDs will blink quickly on

both the transmitter and receiver. NOTE: The color of the LED DURING opera-

tion does not indicate channel group, instead it indicates whether the unit is

transmitting or receiving. That’s It!

NOTE: “GROUP” number also

corresponds to the “GROUP”

setting on our LightCaster™

wireless DMX Transceiver.

Cable Connectors

Cables must have a male XLR connector on one end and a female XLR

connector 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, you will need to use a 5 pin to 3 pin adapter.

They are widely available over the internet and from specialty retailers. If you’d like to build your own,

the chart below details a proper cable conversion:

Conductor 3-Pin Female

(Output)

5-Pin Male

(Input)

Ground/Shield Pin 1 Pin 1

DMX Data (-) Pin 2 Pin 2

DMX Data (+) Pin 3 Pin 3

Not Used. No Connection. No Connection.

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.
