• Do not expose to ammable sources, liquids or gases.

• Always disconnect the power from the mains when equipment is not in use or before

cleaning! Only handle the power-cable by the plug. Never pull out the plug by pulling the

power-cable.

• Make sure that the available voltage is between 220v/240v.

• Make sure that the power-cable is never crimped or damaged. Check the equipment and

the power-cable periodically.

• If the equipment is dropped or damaged, disconnect the mains power supply immediately.

Have a qualied engineer inspect the equipment before operating again.

• If the equipment has been exposed to drastic temperature uctuation (e.g. after

transportation), do not switch it on immediately. The arising condensation might damage

the equipment. Leave the equipment switched off until it has reached room temperature.

You should nd inside the Equinox carton the following items:

1, Equinox Predator 2, Power cable 3, Instruction manual

Technical Specications:

DMX channels: 4

Voltage: AC 240V - 50Hz

122 Ultra Bright LEDs (R: 32, G: 48, B: 42)

Fuse: 5 Amp

Power Consumption: 20W

Dimensions: 395 x 305 x 305mm

Weight: 4.0Kgs

Operations:

There are 3 operating modes to choose from:

1, DMX Mode 2, Auto Run 3, Master/slave mode

DMX Mode

To select DMX mode, set dipswitches 1 and 10 to ON. You can now set the required DMX address using

dipswitches 2 to 9. The start address for this xture is 1. Please refer to the chart overleaf for DMX

functions.

Auto Run Function Mode

To select auto pattern mode, set dipswitches 7, 8 and 9 to the ON position. The unit will now cycle

through all it’s built-in patterns. In this mode the LEDs will remain constantly chasing until the power is

turned OFF or the mode is changed.

Master/Slave Mode

To select the Slave mode, set dipswitches 1 and 10 to the ON position. The slave unit/s will now run in

sequence with the master unit in the above auto run function mode.

Sound Active Function

Please note that the sound active function will work on all modes including DMX.

Dipswich Functions:

To control the unit via the dipswitches please follow the dipswitch settings below.

For Strobe set dipswitch 9 to ON and use dipswitch 1 for speed.

For Red on only use dipswitches 1 - 3 (1 = dim, 1+2= med 1, 2 + 3 = full on).

For Green on only use dipswitches 4 - 6 (4 = dim, 4+5= med 4, 5 + 6 = full on).

For Blue on only use dipswitches 7 - 8 (8 = dim, 7 + 8 = full on).

For pattern 1 set dipswitches 1, 2 + 9 to the ON position and use dipswitches 4 - 7 for speed control.

For pattern 2 set dipswitches 4 + 9 to the ON position and use dipswitches 5 - 7 for speed control.

For the fade pattern set dipswitches 1, 2 , 3 + 9 to the ON position.

Equinox Predator Technical specications

Master/Slave connection

1) Connect the 3-pin (male) connector of the DMX

cable to the output 3-pin (female) connector on

the master unit

2) Now connect the opposite end of the DMX cable

to the input socket on the slave unit/s.

Proceed to connect from the output as stated above

into the following xture and so on.

DMX-512:

• DMX (Digital Multiplex) is a universal protocol used as a form of communication between

intelligent xtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions form the

controller to the xture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from xture to xture via the DATA

“IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX xtures (most controllers only have a data “out”

terminal).

DATA Cable (DMX cable) requirements (for DMX operation):

• The Equinox Predator can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The DMX address is set on the back of

the unit. Your unit and your DMX controller require a standard 3-pin XLR connector for data input/output

(gure 1).

Figure 1

Also remember that DMX cable must be daisy chained and cannot be split.

Further DMX cables can be purchased from

all good sound and lighting suppliers or

Prolight dealers.

Equinox Predator DMX Set up

Notice:

• Be sure to follow gures 2 & 3 when making your own cables. Do not connect the cable’s shield

conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing.

Grounding the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behaviour.

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 behaviour.

Using a cable terminator (part number CABL90) will decrease the possibilities of

erratic behaviour.

5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors:

• Some manufactures use 5-pin XLR connectors for data transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-Pin

XLR xtures may be implemented in a 3-pin XLR DMX line. When inserting standard 5-pin

XLR connectors in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used. The Chart below details the

correct cable conversion.

Termination reduces signal transmission problems

and interferance. it is always advisable to connect a

DMX terminal, (resistance 120 Ohm 1/4 W) between

pin 2 (DMX-) and pin 3 (DMX+) of the last fixture.
