1 This device falls under protection-class I, therefore it is essential that the device be grounded. The electrical connection must be
carried out by a qualified technician.
The device should only be used with rate voltage and frequency. Make sure that the available voltage is not higher than 120V as
stated at the end of this manual.
Make sure the power cord is never crimped or damaged in any way, as this could cause shock and damage. If your power chord is
damaged in any way, please purchase a new cable from your local MICROH dealer. Always disconnect power, when the device is
not in use or before cleaning it. Never pull out the plug by tugging the power cord.
During initial start-up, some smoke or smell may arise. This is a normal process, and does not necessarily mean that the device is
defective. It should decrease gradually. Please do not project the beam onto combustible substances.
Fixtures cannot be installed on or near combustible substances. Keep more than 50cm distance from wall for proper ventilation and
air flow. If your fixture is or has become damaged in any way, it shall be exclusively replaced or repaired by the manufacturer to
avoid any hazard.

xtures in areas outside walking pa
aths, seating are
eas, or in areas w
were the fixture m
might
be reached by unauthorized personnel. Befo
ore mounting the fixture to any su
urface, make sure
e that the installa
ation area can ho
old a
minimum po
oint load of 10 tim
mes the device’s weight. Fixture in
nstallation must always be securred with a second
dary safety attacchment,
such as an appropriate
a
safetty cable. Never stand
s
directly below the device w
when mounting, re
emoving, or servvicing the fixture.
Whether installing inverted on
o a truss or ceiling, Be sure this fixture is kept aw
way from any and
d all flammable m
materials (decora
ation
etc.). Always
s use and install the supplied saffety cable as a sa
afety measure to
o prevent acciden
ntal damage and
d/or injury in the e
event
the mounting
g fails.
Mounting Points:

Overhead
d mounting requiires extensive ex
xperience, includ

installation material
m
being us
sed, and periodic
c safety inspectio
on of all installatio
on material and tthe fixture are all imperative and should
only be perfo
ormed by a qualified technician. Improper installa
ation can result in

Regardless of the rigging op
ption you choose for your MICROH LED STAR DR
RAPE, always be
e sure to secure your fixture with a
safety cable. The fixture prov
vides a built-in rig
gging point for a safety cable on the hanging braccket as illustrated above. Be sure
e to
only use the
e designated rigging point for the safety cable.
5. DMX-512 CONTROL CONNECTION
C
NS
This fixture complies
c
with intternational USITT
T DMX standards and can be use
ed with either a 3 pin or 5 pin DM
MX connector. Plug in
the provided
d 3 pin XLR cable
e to the female 3-pin
3
XLR output of your controlle
er and the other sside to the male 3-pin XLR input of the
LED STAR DRAPE.
D
To conn
nect the units to DMX, you must daisy
d
chain the ffixtures together as referred in the
e diagram below
w.
Always end your DMX-512 connection
c
with a DMX terminator. For installatiions where the DMX
D
cable has to
o run a long dista
ance, or is in an e
electrically noisyy environment, it is recommended
d to
use a DMX terminator.
t
This helps in preventiing corruption of the digital contro
ol signal by electtrical noise. The DMX terminator is
simply an XL
LR plug with a 12
20 Ω resistor con
nnected between
n pins 2 and 3,wh
hich is then plugg
ged into the outp
put XLR socket o
of the
