JB Systems Light LED MANAGER Mode D'emploi page 5

ENGLISH
• Blue wire: This the power for the blue LEDs (max. 50W)
Just connect these 4 wires to the corresponding 4 wires of the projector. (in most cases the colors of
the wires match with the LED colors) Make sure not to exceed the maximum allowed load!
Example: you can connect up to 50 "GROUND LIGHT" on each output cable (total = 100pcs!)
Electrical installation in Master/slave-mode:
• You need to "daisy chain" the DMX in/outputs of 2 or more units with a good quality balanced cable (ex.
JB Systems ref. 7-0063).
• The unit with a free DMX-input connector automatically becomes the master (master LED is lit), the other
units are automatically switched as slaves (slave LED is lit). The controls on the slave units are disabled.
Electrical installation in Master/slave-mode with the LEDCON-01 remote:
• You need to "daisy chain" the DMX in/outputs of 1 or more units with the output of the LEDCON-01
remote using a good quality balanced cable (ex. JB Systems ref. 7-0063).
• The LEDCON-01 remote will be used to control all connected slaves. The LED Managers are
automatically switched as slaves (slave LED is lit). The controls on the slave units are disabled.
Electrical installation in DMX-mode:
• The DMX-protocol is a widely used high speed signal to control intelligent light equipment. You need to
"daisy chain" your DMX controller and all the connected units with a good quality balanced cable (ex. JB
Systems ref. 7-0063).
• To prevent strange behavior of the light effects, due to interferences, you must use
a 90Ω to 120Ω terminator at the end of the chain. Never use Y-splitter cables, this
simply won't work!
• Each unit in the chain needs its proper start address so it knows which commands
from the DMX-controller it has to decode. When you need a lot of power you can
use several LED managers and give them the same start address. In the next chapter you will learn how
to set the DMX addresses.
