2. SETUP

2.1. Installation

Pay attention to safety! Please respectively consider the EN 60598-2-17 and

the national standard during the installation. The authorized dealer must

only carry out the installation.

The installation of the xture has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold

10 times the weight for 1 hour without any harming demolition. The installation must

always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. an appropriate catch net.

This secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that no part of the

installation can fall down if the main attachment fails.

When rigging, de-rigging or servicing the xture staying in the area below the instal-

lation place, on bridges, under high working places and other endangered areas is

forbidden. The operator has to make sure that the safety measure and the machine’s

technical installation is approved by an expert before taking into operation for the rst

time and after changes before taking into operation anther time. He has also to make

sure that an expert approves safety measure and the machine’s technical installation

once a years.

2.2. Module Mechanical Connection

Each module can be used either individually or in blocks of several modules. In the

case of Master/Slave mode, the maximum number is 16; in the case of external com-

puter software (not supplied), the maximum number is dened by the capacity of the

software and the number of DMX outputs of the DMX control unit connected from the

computer to the modules. For more information, refer to the section “4.5. DMX Control-

ler or PC software” on page 16.

Single module Use

As you can see from the following gure, the cabinet of each module is provided with a

swivel bracket and 2 small brackets for truss mounting. The screws on each side of the

swivel brackets allow the user to block the module in the desired position.

In the case of truss mounting with the brackets, it also advisable to use hooks (see

www.soundsationmusic.com website for details on available models) connected to the

ENGLISH

Multiple Module Use

Each module, in addition, is equipped with 4 rotatable hooks (1 to 4 in the gure) which

can be hooked to 4 pins (5 to 8).

Bracket

In this way, each module can be easily xed to another by simply turning the 4 hooks

with a hex key.

Each module, in addition, is equipped with 4 rotatable hooks (1 to 4 in the gure)

which can be hooked to 4 pins (5 to 8). In this way, each module can be easily xed to

another by simply turning the 4 hooks with a hex key (9). Of course, in this case, the

adjustable bracket must be removed and only the small brackets have to be mounted

on the upper row of modules as shown below.

 Theearthmusttobeconnected!Payattentiontosafety!

In case of a large number of units, it is advisable to use a three-phase mains connec-

tion and distribute the modules in equal parts on the three lines. Before taking into

operation for the rst time, the installation has to be approved by an expert.

DMX-512 Connection

Wires must not come into contact with each other; otherwise the xtures will not work

at all, or will not work properly.

Only use a dual-shielded cable and 3-pin XLR plugs and connectors in order to control

with the xture or one xture with another.

ENGLISH

MTR-25-10W-RGBW User manual

If you are using a DMX controller, you can connect the DMX output of the controller

directly with the DMX input of the rst xture in the DMX chain.

3.2.3. Building a Serial DMX Chain

Connect the DMX output of the rst xture in the DMX chain with the DMX input of the

next xture. Always connect one output with the input of the next xture until all xtures

are connected.

DMX Termonator

Unit 1 Unit 2 Last Unit

DMX 512

A word on termination: DMX is a resilient communication protocol, however errors

still occasionally occur. Termination reduces signal errors, and therefore best practices

include use of a terminator in all circumstances. If you are experiencing problems with

erratic xture behavior, especially over long signal cable runs, a terminator may help

improve performance.

DMX Terminator

120ohm, 1/4W

resistor

To build your own DMX Terminator: Obtain a 120-ohm, 1/4-watt resistor, and wire it

between pins 2&3 of the last xture. They are also readily available from specialty

retailers.

4.4. LED Operation

LED Function

If you have a large-scale performance, mainly use computer software or dmx controller

to control lights, and you are worried will have one or more DMX signal cables dam-

aged to lead to the program run automatically, resulting in light run around. At this time,

you expect the lights automatically exterminate (black), then please following below

step to set.

Press MENU button to (led on), choose (led off), then press MENU but-

ton to choose (Standby function), after nished above action does not affect the

operation of the DMX control, when the DMX signal appears abnormal, the device will

jump to standby function automatically (black out).

4.5. DMX Controller or PC software

In the case of large-scale performances with ledwalls composed of many SOUNDSA-

TION MTR-25-10W-RGBW units where you are willing to control each pixel, you must

have a DMX controller or a DMX Lighting Control Software (not included) able to man-

age a large number of channels simultaneously. Note that each module, when used in

this mode, requires 75 DMX channels; therefore, in the case of 16 modules ledwall, the

control system has to manage 1200 DMX channels at one time.

Taking into account that an equipment such as this is always used in combination with

other xtures and ambient effects (moving heads, smoke machines, strobe lights, etc.),

it is then evident that the DMX controller must have 4 or even 8 simultaneous DMX512

outputs. In the market, there are many professional DMX controllers as there are many

software able to handle such huge numbers of DMX signals.

About software, some examples may be Emulation Pro Control Software

by Elation

www.elationlight.com, Eclipse DMX™ Software by Blizzard Lighting www.blizzard-

lighting.com, Sulite Suite 2™ by Nicolaudie www.nicolaudie.com, Madrix 3 by Madrix

www.madrix.com, and many more. Just pay attention to choose packages or bundles

that offer DMX control units with 4 or more DMX outputs.

PC connection

As explained before, In the case of PC software, you needs a computer-to-DMX inter-

face with 2 or more DMX outputs. The following example show how to setup a system

with 8-out DMX control unit.

ENGLISH

MTR-25-10W-RGBW User manual

Connect your PC to the DMX control unit using a Cat-5 cable (or USB, depending on

control software characteristics - consult with the software seller).

Connect the control box to mains.

Connect the DMX outputs to all MTR-25-10W-RGBW according to the number of de-

vices and the following instructions:

f Set all modules We take 75CH channel mode as shown in “2. - Channel

Mode” on page 15

f Set the rst module to channel 001 following the instructions in “1. DMX512

Address Setting” on page 18 and connect to DMX Output 1 of the control unit

f Set the second module to channel 001 + 75 = 76 and connect to DMX output of

Module 1

f Set the third module to channel 076 + 75 = 151 and connect to DMX output of Mod-

ule 2

f Set the fourth module to channel 151 + 75 = 226, and connect to DMX output of

Module 2

f Do the same for each additional module, need plus the number of selected chan-

nels, and so on...

f When the number of additional channels exceeds 512, we need to pass to another
