7- VOLTAGE AND FREQUENCY
KATANA operates at 100-240Vac 50-60 Hz.
8- INSTALLATION
The unit is suitable for dry locations only.
KATANA may be either floor or ceiling mounted.
For floor mounting installations, KATANA is supplied with 2 brackets on the base with
rubber mounting feet.
For ceiling mounted installations, we recommend the use of appropriate clamps to fix
the unit to the mounting surface.
The supporting structure from which the unit is hung should be capable of bearing the
weight of the unit, as should any clamps used to hung it.
Four 1/4 turn Fast Locks connections placed in the base of the unit allow to hang the
KATANA by using the two Omega brackets (provided in the box) in conjuction with
fixing clamps for truss (clamps are not included into the unit box).
The Omega brackets can be installed on the unit even without remove the brackets
for ground installation fixed on the base of the unit.
8.1- Safety cable
A safety cable must be securely fixed to the KATANA and to the suspension truss in
order to avoid the fixture accidentally falling should the main fixing point fail.

10- DMX SIGNAL CONNECTION
KATANA operates using the digital DMX 512 (1990) signal.
Connection between the mixer and the LED bar or between LED bars must be carried
out using a two pair screened ø 0.5 mm cable and a XLR 5 pins connector.
Ensure that the conductors do not touch each other.
Do not connect the cable ground to the XLR chassy.
The plug housing must be isolated. Connect the mixer signal to the DMX IN projector
plug and connect it to the next projector by connecting the DMX OUT plug on the first
projector to the DMX IN plug of the second one.
This way, all the projectors are cascade connected.
NB. If the display showing the DMX address flashes, then one of the following errors
has occurred:
- DMX signal not present
- DMX address not valid
- DMX reception problem
For Installations where long distance DMX cable connections are needed, we suggest
to use a DMX terminator.
The DMX terminator is a male XLR 5 pins connector with a 120 ohm resistor between
pin 2 and 3.
The DMX terminator must be plugged into the last unit (DMX out panel connector) of
the DMX line.
PLACE A 120 OHM RESISTOR BETWEEN PIN 2
AND 3 OF A MALE XRL CONNECTOR AND PLUG IT
INTO THE DMX OUT PANEL CONNECTOR OF THE
LAST UNIT CONNECTED TO THE DMX LINE
