SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
da
CAUTION!
Be careful with your operations. With a dangerous voltage you can suffer a dangerous
electric shock when touching the wires!
This device has left our premises in absolutely perfect condition. In order to maintain this condition and to
ensure a safe operation, it is absolutely necessary for the user to follow the safety instructions and warning
notes written in this user manual.
Important:
Damages caused by the disregard of this user manual are not subject to warranty. The dealer
will not accept liability for any resulting defects or problems.
If the device has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g. after transportation), do not switch it
on immediately. The arising condensation water might damage your device. Leave the device switched off
until it has reached room temperature.
Please make sure that there are no obvious transport damages. Should you notice any damages on the A/C
connection cable or on the casing, do not take the device into operation and immediately consult your local
dealer.
The LED display falls under protection-class III. The device must be operated with an appropriate power unit.
The DF control system, DF media player and the power unit fall under protection-class I. The power plug
must only be plugged into a protection class I outlet. The voltage and frequency must exactly be the same as
stated on the device. Wrong voltages or power outlets can lead to the destruction of the device and to mortal
electrical shock.
Always plug in the power plug last. The power plug must always be inserted without force. Make sure that
the plug is tightly connected with the outlet.
Never let the power-cord come into contact with other cables! Handle the power-cord and all connections
with the mains with particular caution! Never touch them with wet hands, as this could lead to mortal
electrical shock.
Never modify, bend, strain mechanically, put pressure on, pull or heat up the power cord. Never operate next
to sources of heat or cold. Disregard can lead to power cord damages, fire or mortal electrical shock.
The cable insert or the female part in the device must never be strained. There must always be sufficient
cable to the device. Otherwise, the cable may be damaged which may lead to mortal damage.
Make sure that the power-cord is never crimped or damaged by sharp edges. Check the device and the
power-cord from time to time.
If extension cords are used, make sure that the core diameter is sufficient for the required power
consumption of the device. All warnings concerning the power cords are also valid for possible extension
cords.
Always disconnect from the mains, when the device is not in use or before cleaning it. Only handle the
power-cord by the plug. Never pull out the plug by tugging the power-cord. Otherwise, the cable or plug can
be damaged leading to mortal electrical shock. If the power plug or the power switch is not accessible, the
device must be disconnected via the mains.
If the power plug or the device is dusty, the device must be taken out of operation, disconnected and then be
cleaned with a dry cloth. Dust can reduce the insulation which may lead to mortal electrical shock. More
severe dirt in and at the device should only be removed by a specialist.

There must never enter any liquid into power outlets, extension cords or any holes in the housing of the
device. If you suppose that also a minimal amount of liquid may have entered the device, it must immediately
be disconnected. This is also valid, if the device was exposed to high humidity. Also if the device is still
running, the device must be checked by a specialist if the liquid has reduced any insulation. Reduced
insulation can cause mortal electrical shock.
There must never be any objects entering into the device. This is especially valid for metal parts. If any metal
parts like staples or coarse metal chips enter into the device, the device must be taken out of operation and
disconnected immediately. Malfunction or short-circuits caused by metal parts may cause mortal injuries.
HEALTH HAZARD!
Never look directly into the light source, as sensitive persons may suffer an
epileptic shock (especially meant for epileptics)!
Keep away children and amateurs!
Never leave this device running unattended.

OPERATING DETERMINATIONS
The DF-40 is a flexible display equipped with bright tri-color RGB LEDs. It was specially designed for
projection of videos and graphics synchronous to the computer or the DF media player. The display bends,
rolls and moulds around almost any shape for waves, columns, circles, arcs and angles. The modular design
allows the horizontal and vertical built-up of indoor video screens. Control is via special PC software with the
DF control system and the DF media player (optional).
The display requires an operating voltage of 5 V direct current, supplied by the optional matching power unit.
A separate power unit is needed for each display. The power unit, the DF control system and the DF media
player are allowed to be operated with an alternating voltage of 100-240 V AC, 50/60 Hz. All products were
designed for indoor use only.
The ambient temperature must always be between -10° C and +45° C. Keep away from direct insulation
(particularly in cars) and heaters. The maximum relative humidity is 100 % with an ambient temperature of
25° C. This device must only be operated in an altitude between -20 and 2000 m over NN.
Do not shake the device. Avoid brute force when installing or operating the device.
When choosing the installation spot, please make sure that the device is not exposed to extreme heat,
moisture or dust. There should not be any cables lying around. You endanger your own and the safety of
others!
Make sure the area below the installation place is cordoned off when mounting or servicing the device.
The F-symbol means: this device can be installed on normal inflammable surfaces.
The symbol
---m
determines the minimum distance from lighted objects. The minimum distance
between light output and the illuminated surface must be more than the given value.
The maximum ambient temperature Ta= 45° C must never be exceeded.
Never use solvents or aggressive detergents in order to clean the device! Rather use a soft and damp cloth.
Please consider that unauthorized modifications on the device are forbidden due to safety reasons!
If this device will be operated in any way different to the one described in this manual, the product may suffer
damages and the guarantee becomes void. Furthermore, any other operation may lead to dangers like short-
circuit, burns, electric shock, lamp explosion, etc.

>> Control System with Control Software PC Studio
The control system consists of a control unit and the light effect software [PC Studio] and allows for control
of DF displays together with a computer with Windows operating system and network card. Configuration,
setting of control functions and design of light shows is done with the software. The data is transmitted from
the computer to the control unit via the included patch cable. If needed, a longer standard CAT5e patch
cable may be used. A control units connects a maximum of six DF displays in series. To built-up a large
video wall up to 255 control units can be connected in series using patch cables.
