unit operates in:

In CHASE mode: 1Hz / 2Hz / 4Hz fixed / S2L (with LED indicator)

In FADE mode: speed 0.25Hz fixed/ 0.5Hz fixed / 1Hz / 2Hz fixed

In MOOD mode: speed 0.05Hz fixed / 0.25Hz fixed/ 0.5Hz fixed / 1Hz fixed

In SCENE mode: no speed choice (this button disabled)

In FLASH (STROBE) mode: the strobe speed can bet set in 4 levels.

Note: the chosen speed setting will be stored for every mode, so once returning to the mode, the

previously chose speed will be recalled.

5. S2L (SOUND TO LIGHT) indicator

In chase mode you can use the SPEED-button select different speeds or you can choose to run the

patterns to the rhythm of the music, in this last mode the SOUND TO LIGHT indicator is lit.

6. ON/OFF indicator

Indicates if the LED Marvel is connected to the mains or not.

7. BASE

Used to mount the LED Marvel in many different ways: see the chapter “How to install” for more

information.

8. DMX in/out connectors

You can use the LED Marvel standalone, in master/slave or you can control it using an external DMX-

controller. Please check the chapter “How to connect” for more information.

9. Power adapter in/out

Used to connect the power adapter, you can connect 1 more LED Marvel on the same power adapter.

However the included power adapter does not support this. In short we suggest NOT using the power

adapter output.

10.Microphone

The internal microphone picks up the music so the chases can run to the rhythm of the music.

11.STANDBY (ON/OFF) button

Only available on the remote: sets the output in blackout mode (off). This has the same effect as setting

the level (button 1)

ENGLISH USER MANUAL

JB SYSTEMS®6/44 LED MARVEL

HOW TO INSTALL

The LED Marvel can be mounted in many different ways, you can choose one of these methods:

Table-Top operation: Mostly for “party” use!

Mount the included tripod to the bottom thread insert of the main unit.

Place the unit in a secure position where it can neither be touched by anyone or

could possibly become an objective for anyone to stumble.

If necessary or possible, fix the tripod with three screws (not included) to the

supporting surface.

Make sure the location and position secures safe distance from a spectator’s

direct eyesight.

For proper sound-to-light operation, leave the rear of the unit unobstructed.

Choose an angle that provides safe standing so that the unit cannot accidently flip

over. Make sure the two longer tripod legs direct to the back of the unit.

Connect the power supply and place the power supply in a location where nobody

can accidently stumble over the power supply or the cable.

Make sure to comply with cooling requirements of the used power supply if any.

Wall-mounted operation: Mostly used to color a wall while being mounted on that wall, see drawings A & B.

Mount the included tripod to the rear thread insert of the main unit.

Place the unit in a secure position where it can neither be touched by

anyone or could possibly become an objective for anyone to stumble

or bang his/her head on it.

Fix the tripod with three screws (not included) to the supporting

surface. Make sure the supporting surface can safely carry the weight

of the unit, which can be assumed when the surface can carry 10

times the unit’s weight as a point load.

Make sure the location and position secures safe distance from a

spectator’s direct eyesight.

For proper sound-to-light operation, leave the rear of the unit

unobstructed.

Connect the power supply and place the power supply in a location

where nobody can accidently stumble over the power supply or the

cable.

Make sure to comply with cooling requirements of the used power

supply if any.

Floor-mounted operation: Mostly used to color a wall while standing on the floor or hanging on the ceiling,

see drawings C & D.

Mount the included tripod to the rear thread insert of the

main unit.

Place the unit in a secure position where it can neither

be touched by anyone or could possibly become an

objective for anyone to stumble.

If necessary or possible, fix the tripod with three screws

(not included) to the supporting surface.

Make sure the location and position secures safe

distance from a spectator’s direct eyesight.

For proper sound-to-light operation, leave the rear of the

unit unobstructed.

Choose an angle that provides safe standing so that the

unit cannot accidently flip over.

Connect the power supply and place the power supply in

a location where nobody can accidently stumble over

the power supply or the cable.

Make sure to comply with cooling requirements of the used power supply if any.

ENGLISH USER MANUAL

JB SYSTEMS®7/44 LED MARVEL

HOW TO CONNECT

Standalone use:

Just connect the supplied Power adapter to the DC in (9) connector on the back of the unit.

Before using the IR-remote you should remove the protective plastic sleeve from the battery compartment.

Electrical installation for two or more units in Master/slave or DMX-mode:

The LED Marvel is equipped with a digital control interface connection which allows several units to be

synchronized. Since this digital control interface is based on the DMX512 protocol, it can also be used to

remotely control one or a chain of LED Marvel by means of an external DMX-512 controller. For space

reasons, the control interface however uses a 3.5mm jack connection (instead of the commonly used XLR

type), which means external DMX control requires a custom-made XLR-to-3.5jack cable (not supplied). A

further restriction is that the DMX start address cannot be set on the LED Marvel and is fixed to 001. The

interconnection between two units for synchronization requires a normal 3.5mm stereo jack/jack cable (not

included). The last unit in a chain shall be equipped with a proper 120 Ohm termination resistor equipped

3.5mm stereo jack-plug as shown in below drawing.

Cable connections for Master/slave:

You can connect several units together using an

optional good quality cable with 3.5mm stereo jack on

both sides.

The first unit in the chain will be the master: on this unit

you should press the buttons or use the IR-remote

control.

If you should use long cables the operation of the

slaves could become unreliable. In that case you should

use the 120ohm termination (see previous page) on the

DMX-output of last unit in the line.

Cable connections for DMX-operation:

You can connect several units to the output of any

DMX-controller using an optional good quality

conversion cable with 3.5mm stereo jack on one side

and XLR-connector on the other side. (see previous

page)

Keep in mind that you cannot choose the start address

of the units: the start address is always 001!

If you should use long cables the operation of the

slaves could become unreliable. In that case you should

use the 120ohm termination (see previous page) on the

DMX-output of last unit in the line.

ENGLISH USER MANUAL

JB SYSTEMS®8/44 LED MARVEL

While using an external DMX controller the 21CH DMX-chart can be used:

Channels 1 to 18 can be used to individually control the red, green and blue colors for the 6 panels, see

the chart for the exact information.

Channel 19 is the master dimmer for the 6 panels, see the chart for the exact information.

Channel 20 can be used to recall internal patterns, above DMX-value 247 channels 1 to 19 become active.

Channel 21 is used to set the speed of the internal patterns.

MAINTENANCE

This device does not need regular maintenance. It is protected by an internal fuse located on the power

supply PCB. If this fuse fails, this usually indicates an internal fault requiring servicing by a qualified

engineer. The fuse shall only be replaced by a fuse of same specification, and the replacement has to be

made by qualified personnel obeying applicable safety rules.
