Control Mode

The fixtures are individually addressed on a data-link and connected to the controller.

The fixtures respond to the DMX signal from the controller.

DMX Addressing

The control panel on the front side of the base allows you to assign the DMX fixture address, which is the

first channel from which the Galactic will respond to the controller.

Please note when you use the controller, the unit has max. 10 channels.

When using multiple Galactic’s, make sure you set the DMX addresses right.

Therefore, the DMX address of the first Galactic should be 1(001); the DMX address of the second

Galactic should be 1+10=11; the DMX address of the third Galactic should be 11+10=21, etc.

Please, be sure that you don’t have any overlapping channels in order to control each Galactic

correctly. If two or more Galactic’s are addressed similarly, they will work similarly.

For address settings, please refer to the instructions under ”Addressing’ (menu d001)

Controlling:

After having addressed all Galactic’s, you may now start operating these via your lighting controller.

Note: After switching on, the Galactic will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or not.

The problem may be:

• The XLR cable from the controller is not connected with the input of the Studiobeam.

• The controller is switched off or defective, the cable or connector is detective, or the signal wires are

swapped in the input connector.

Note: It’s necessary to insert a XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) in the last fixture in order to ensure

proper transmission on the DMX data link.
