U

SITT

DMX

512

All the functions of Palco 3 and Palco 5 can be controlled via Usitt DMX 512 Standard serial digital signal,

or RS 232 serial signal; Palco 5 has an integrated DMX wireless interface. Palco generates a proprietary

data transmission protocol when Master-Slave self-controlled systems are created by on-board

programming.

Palco requires six channels to control all its parameters. All the parameters are controlled and can be

programmed by an integrated processor, MOTOROLA DSP 56F 803 for Palco 3, and DSP 56F805 for

Palco 5.

C

OOLING

Palco 3 does not use any type of forced ventilation as cooling system, thus improving silent running and

preventing the accumulation of dust or particles inside the projector. The radiator, installed on the back

panel of the LED lighting sector, ensures the correct cooling by convection.

Palco 5 uses a forced ventilation system regulated by a software algorithm, which ensures a high degree

of noiselessness.

An integrated temperature self-regulating system ensures continuous operation even in critical thermal

conditions.

OLOR

:

Three groups of Red, Green and Blue LEDs make up the matrix that generates Palco’s light beam. Their

layout in the matrix ensures that the emitted light can be controlled as far as Colour, Intensity and

Temperature are concerned. Palco’s colour generation system is therefore based on the concept of

additive colour mixing, where the sum of the various intensities of Red, Green and Blue, (RGB) enables to

create any other colour with the required tone or saturation.

P

ALCO

W

HITE

:

Thanks to two different types of LEDs (White - Amber) forming the lighting sector, it is possible to

accurately recreate the fluctuation and nuances of natural daylight.

The temperature of the white can be regulated without any light efficiency loss in a range from 2000°K to

6700°K approximately.

The electronic control of the luminous intensity of the LEDs ensures precise emission adjustment, without

colour or colour temperature variation over the entire range from 0 to 100 %, in a regular uniform

manner.

S

HUTTER

The shutter control parameter ensures instant light beam opening and closing effects. The characteristics

of the LEDs allow to obtain strobe effects with adjustable or random flash power and rate with

exceptional precision and intensity, thanks to the lack of any mechanical form of beam blackout.

M

ACRO

The Macro parameter allows to select (via DMX) a series of preset on-board colour and dimmer (or

combined) effects whenever they are required. Rainbow effects with different speeds and random or

Colour-dimming and Color-strobe, can be enabled without having to be programmed beforehand.

The Macro parameter of Palco White enables to select -via DMX- different colour temperatures for the

white light beam.

M

EMORIES

Comprehensive programming can be carried on-board the fixture, thus enabling playback in a fully stand-

alone status without the aid of external DMX control. It’s also possible to program playback times and

modes in the space of 24 hours, with a 7-day repetitive cycle.

Complete stand-alone systems can be realized, with absolutely no external controls and up to 30 fixtures;

with operating times and modes programmed and controlled using Master/Slave connections.

Five shows, each made up of ten scenes can be programmed on each fixture.

2.1 Unpacking the fixture

Before installing the fixture, make sure that the packing contains the items indicated in the following list

and the fixture has not been damaged.

In case of doubts, do not use the fixture and contact an SGM authorised assistance service centre and

the transportation company. The consignee only can claim for damages to the fixture caused during

transportation.

DO NOT DESPERD THE PACKING ELEMENTS.

THE PACKING ELEMENTS (PLASTIC BAGS, FOAM, NAILS, ETC.), MUST NEVER BE LEFT NEAR CHILDREN, AS

DANGEROUS. USE THE ORIGINAL PACKAGE IN CASE OF FIXTURE RETURN TO THE MANUFACTURER FOR REPAIR OR

MAINTENANCE SERVICE, IT HAS BEEN SPECIFICALLY MADE TO PROTECT THE FIXTURE DURING THE TRANSPORT.

2.2 Mounting the fixture

ATTENTION!

Before installing the fixture, make certain the AC mains cable is disconnected.

W

IRING

Being a fixture protected to IP65, the unit is already fitted with wiring and dedicated cable gland. Palco

only requires its AC plug to be wired, following the indications below:

Simbolo Pin EU US UK

L Live Brown Yellow/Copper Red

N Neutral Blue Silver Black

Ground Yellow/Green Green Green

ATTENTION!

 Wiring and connection work must be carried out by experienced qualified staff.

 Class one equipment must be earthed (grounded)

 Do not power Palco units with dimmers, as this could damage their on-board power

supply

 Before connecting the unit, make certain that the mains power supply is the same

as indicated on the fixture’s ID plate

 The unit must be protected by a thermal/magnetic circuit-breaker

Palco is controlled via DMX 512 serial digital signal. Cables for connection to the signal (supplied) are

fitted with standard XLR 5-Pin connectors. It is indispensable to use cables that meet EIA RS-485

specifications to connect the fixtures to the control console.

NOTE FOR USA AND CANADA

The version of the light with ETL/UL certificate, for US and Canadian markets, does not come with the

DMX cable. It will be the responsibility of the installer to set up the light with a cable with the

appropriate specifications for the type of installation. We recommends to use for outdoor installation the

Belden cable 7921A UL certified type CMX-outdoor. For these versions come with DMX out-door XLR

connectors.

NSTALLATION AND POSITIONING

Palco is an automated colour-changing fixture suitable for use in decorative/architectural and show

lighting. The type of installation can therefore be varied according to its use.

Palco can be permanently mounted, in the case of fixed installations, by means of the four holes on its

base, using the M6 screws as shown in the diagram. The distance between the holes is 180 mm on the

front and 204.5 mm on the side.

It’s also possible to fit a display safety cover to avoid any unauthorized use of the front control panel.

 Turn the bracket 45° to uncover the top fixing screws of the front panel

 Remove the first two screws with a Phillips screwdriver (not supplied)

 Turn the head’s horizontal positioning bracket –45° until the other two front panel screws can be seen

 Remove the last two screws with a Phillips screwdriver (not supplied)

 Now remove the front panel

 Fit the protective cover to the display

 Replace the front panel again, following the procedure described above

User’s Manual 1.03

- 14 - Palco Series

ATTENTION!

 Do not install the fixture near naked flames

 Do not install the fixture near inflammable liquids

 Avoid violent impacts or conditions in which the unit is subject to continuous

vibrations

 Install the unit in a ventilated location

The Palco can be hung on any support or truss structure using Fast-Lock “G” or “Aliscaff” clamps. In the

event of an Aliscaff-type clamp being used, a Fast-Lock Omega support must be used as shown in the

diagram.

There are no indications against using any particular the position for the clamps in the fixture’s base.

ATTENTION!

If the fixture is suspended from a truss suspended above ground or floor level, fix the

fixture with a steel safety cable.

GB SGM Technology for lighting

Palco Series - 15 - User’s Manual 1.03

Palco can be panned through + or – 45° and tilted –75° (backwards) and +15° (forwards).

The required movement is fixed by means of the screws on the head support, as shown in the diagram.

The hex keys for fixing PAN and TILT are supplied with the fixture and are (respectively) 6 mm. and 3

mm. keys

DDRESSING THE FIXTURE

Palco 3 and Palco 5 are fitted with an on-board microcomputer, which enables them to be configured and

addressed for the control of their programming.

There are two fundamental modes in which the units can operate:

Controlled via DMX by an external console

Stand-alone Mode with on-board programming and the possible control of a series of other fixtures using

a MASTER-SLAVE set-up.

We’ll now cover the addressing of a Palco for DMX control using an external console. Stand-Alone mode

on the other hand is covered in the “Stand-alone Programming chapter”

Once the fixture is switched on, its name appears in the display (PALCO 3 or PALCO 5) along with the

version of the software installed on the microcomputer (e.g.: 1.0). As soon as the start-up sequence is

finished, “ADDR = 1” will appear on the display, showing that the fixture is addressed to DMX channel 1.

ATTENTION!

If the flashing message NO SIGNAL or SIGNAL ERROR appears, this means that the

fixture is not receiving a DMX signal from the Console or is receiving an incorrect

signal.

SGM Technology for Lighting GB

User’s Manual 1.03

- 16 - Palco Series

To change the DMX address, proceed as follows:

Press the UP key. The message Addr=1 will appear

Press Enter and “Addr=” will begin to flash

Use the UP and Down arrow keys to choose the required address

channel

Press Enter again to confirm

Palco requires 8 DMX channels for the control of all its functions.

With a DMX 512 control universe, up to 64 can therefore be controlled simultaneously and separately

ATTENTION!

D

o not use more than 25 fixtures on any one DMX line! Should it be necessary

to connect a larger number of fixtures, the appropriate Buffers or Splitter must

be used for each 25 fixtures, to ensure that the signal quality remains

unchanged.
