General set up
1 Mount the fixture in the required position. The integral yoke can
act as a floor stand or hanger.
Important
• When suspended off ground, always use a safety wire rated
to a minimum of 34kg (75lbs) around the yoke.
• Do not position the fixture close to fog machines. The fog oil
mist will be drawn in by the cooling fan and will short out
important components. The warranty will be void for all
fixtures returned in such a condition.
2 Where external control is to be used, connect a DMX lead (XLR
5-pin female) to the input socket at the rear of the fixture.

Operation modes
The PixelPar 90 provides a range of operation modes. These are
selected using the
MODE section of the control menu:
DMX
Allows RGB control via DMX input. Internal chase
effects are not available within this mode.
MANU
Provides RGB colour mixing independently of any
external control. Use the internal control menu
(MAN section) to select the required colour values.
EF D
Superseded by MAX2 and operates in a similar manner
except that only chase effects can be selected via DMX
input (no RGB mixing). Requires 7 DMX channels.
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.
MAX2
Provides control of RGB mixing and selection of the
dual internal chase effects via DMX input. Requires 10
DMX channels.
16bt
Allows RGB control via DMX input, using two 8bit
channels per colour. Internal chase effects are not avail-
able within this mode.
PixelPar 90 personalities are available for a variety of controllers.
Please see www.pixelrange.com for details.
Factory reset (perform this prior to new use)
To clear previous settings: At the rear panel, press the middle
two buttons (
and
) while the current address and mode
are being displayed. The four digit display will show FACT then
SET to indicate that the fixture has been returned to its default
condition. This is useful to remove any settings that might cause
confusion in a new configuration (e.g. master intensity settings).
