Overhead Rigging; Electrical Installation + Setup - JB Systems Light LED PIPE RGB 230V Manual De Instrucciones

ENGLISH
1. LED PIPE SIGNAL INPUT: low voltage signal input to be connected with the signal output of the
previous tube or with the signal output cable from the controller. Extra 1m, 5m or 10m signal cable
extensions are optionally available.
2. LED PIPE SIGNAL OUTPUT: low voltage signal output to be connected with the signal input of the next
tube. Extra 1m, 5m or 10m signal cable extensions are optionally available.
3. POWER INPUT CABLE: To be connected with power output cable of the previous tube or directly with
the mains.
4. POWER OUTPUT CABLE: To be connected with the power input cable of the next tube.
5. LED PIPE HOLDERS: Needed to fix the tubes easily against a surface. The shape of the enclosure and
the holders makes it possible to hide your cables perfectly behind your construction.
6. DIP SWITCHES: used to setup the different user modes of the tube.
7. PLASTIC COVER: The milky white plastic cover is used to mix the 3 primary colors. If you like you can
install the LED PIPE tubes behind a big milky white opaque surface to create an "ever color changing
wall". In this case you can try to remove the plastic cover from the LED PIPE to obtain more light output.
This can be easily done by removing the 2 small screws on one side of the plastic cover. Once the end
cap removed you can easily slide the plastic cover out of the base.

OVERHEAD RIGGING

 Important: The installation must be carried out by qualified service personal only. Improper installation can
result in serious injuries and/or damage to property. Overhead rigging requires extensive experience!
Working load limits should be respected, certified installation materials should be used, the installed
device should be inspected regularly for safety.
 Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during rigging, de-rigging
and servicing.
 Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10times the device's
weight.
 The device should be well fixed; a free-swinging mounting is dangerous and may not be considered!
 The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by
an expert before using them for the first time. The installations should be inspected every year by a skilled
person to be sure that safety is still optimal.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION + SETUP

Important: The electrical installation
should be carried out by qualified
personal only, according to the regulations
for electrical and mechanical safety in your
country.
You can install the tubes in 2 ways: with or without
controller.
INSTALLATION WITH CONTROLLER:
1. Fix all the tubes properly to wall or ceiling.
2. Connect the signal cables of all tubes together.
Make sure to fasten the plastic ring well. (see
n°3 on the picture)
3. Connect the power cables of all tubes together
and connect the first unit to the mains. (see n°2
and 3 on the picture) PS: to connect the first unit
to the mains, you need an optional mains cable
with IEC-socket on one end.
4. Connect the signal input cable of the first tube to
the signal output connector of the LED PIPE
controller. Eventually use the optional extension
cables. (See n°1 on the picture)
5. Switch the controller on and follow the setup of
the controller like suggested in the manual of
the LED PIPE controller

6. Done!
Remarks:
You can daisy chain up to 1000 tubes on 1 controller. The DIP-switch settings on the individual LED PIPES
have no effect in a setup with controller. For detailed explanations on how the controller works and how you
can control your setup by DMX, please refer to the user manual for the LED PIPE controller.
INSTALLATION WITHOUT CONTROLLER:
The installation without controller is almost identical so please refer to points 1 to 3 above.
When no controller is connected, the first unit in the chain will act as the master: only use the DIP-switches
on this master unit. The DIP-switch settings on the other (slave) LED PIPES have no effect.
 PATTERN REPETITION
Dipswitch 1+2: used to choose after how many tubes the build-in patterns are repeated.
Patterns are repeated every 32 tubes.
Patterns are repeated every 16 tubes.
Patterns are repeated every 8 tubes.
Patterns are repeated every 4 tubes.
 PATTERN PLAYBACK SPEED
Dipswitch 5+6: used to set the playback speed of the patterns in auto mode
Playback speed is very slow.
Playback speed is slow.
Playback speed is fast.
Playback speed is very fast.
 AUTO MODE (DIP3 = OFF - DIP4 = OFF)
DIP10 = switch ON for pattern inversion
Random mode (7 chases)
Auto fade
One color in one way
One color in two way
Multicolor in one way
Multicolor in two way
Multicolor strobe
Strobe in white light
