PixelRange PixelLine 110 User Manual

General set up
1 Mount the fixture in the required position using the supplied
combi yoke or optional floor plate set (p/n: SSFLP).
Important
• When suspended off ground, always use safety wires rated
to a minimum of 53kg (117lbs) at both ends of the fixture
through the safety wire holes.
• Do not position the fixture close to fog machines. The fog
oil mist will be drawn in by the cooling fans and will short
out important components. The warranty will be void for all
fixtures returned in such a condition.
2 Connect the power in and DMX in connectors at the left end of
the fixture.
3 Where multiple fixtures are to be daisy-chained, connect power
out and DMX cables at the right end of the fixture.
Important
• When daisy-chaining fixtures, do not exceed a total load of
3kW in a single daisy chain (subject to supply and cabling
restrictions). Each PixelLine 110 fixture has a maximum power
requirement of 300 watts.
4 When all fixtures are connected, apply power.
5 Use the control panel to access the internal menu and choose the
appropriate operation mode and related settings (see over).
• To optionally clear all previous settings: At the rear panel,
press the middle two buttons (
and ) while the DMX
address is displayed (e.g. A001, A002, etc). The four digit
display will show
FACT then SET to indicate that the fixture
has been returned to its default condition.

Operation modes
The PixelLine 110 provides a range of operation modes. These
are selected using the MODE section of the control menu:
DMX
Allows RGBA control of all cells via DMX input. Using
the RES (resolution) option you can determine the
number of DMX channels required, from 20 channels
down to just 3 (the cell sizes and colour permutations
are adjusted accordingly). Internal chase effects are not
available within this mode.
MANU
Provides RGBA colour mixing independently of any
external control. Use the internal control menu (MAN
section) to select the required colour values.
EF M
Allows the display of the dual internal chase effects,
independently of any external control. Use the internal
control menu (
PROG section) to select the required
chase effects, speeds and cross fades.
20+E
Provides control of RGBA mixing on all 5 cells and se-
lection of the dual internal chase effects via DMX input.
Requires 27 DMX channels.
4+E
Provides control of RGBA mixing (the whole fixture acts
as a single cell) and selection of the dual internal chase
effects via DMX input. Requires 11 DMX channels.
PixelLine 110 personalities are available for a variety of
controllers. Please see www.pixelrange.com for details.
