DMX-CONFIGURATION OF iMOVE 5S
HOW TO OPERATE THE UNIT
Every time you turn the unit on, it will show IM-5S on the display and move all the motors to their 'home'
position and you may hear some noises for about 20 seconds. After that the unit will be ready to receive
DMX signal or run the built in programs.
You can operate the unit in three ways:
By master/slave built-in preprogram function
o
By CA-8 easy controller
o
o
By universal DMX controller
BY MASTER/SLAVE BUILT-IN PREPROGRAM FUNCTION:
Select this function when you want an instant show. By linking the units in master/slave
connection, the first unit will control the other units to give an automatic, sound activated,
synchronized light show. Its DMX input will have nothing plugged into it, and its master-
LED will be constantly on and sound-LED will flash to the music.
Important! This function only works when the blackout mode in the menu of the
master is set to OFF, otherwise nothing will happen! Read more about this option in
the "Main Menu" paragraph.
MASTER has 2 built-in shows: You can select
(show 3) or
(show 4) directly in the menu of the master.
SLAVES have 2 working options: The other units are set to slave mode (slave-LED is
constantly on). In order to create a great light show you can introduce contrast
movements (pan/tilt of slave is inversed) In the menu of the slave units you can go to option
and select:
Normal slave: slave works in sync with the master.
o
2 light show: slave works in opposite with the master.

MAINTENANCE
Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during servicing.
Switch off the unit, unplug the mains cable and wait until the unit has been cooled down.
During inspection the following points should be checked:
All screws used for installing the device and any of its parts should be tightly fastened and may not be
corroded.
Housings, fixations and installations spots (ceiling, truss, suspensions) should be totally free from any
deformation.
When an optical lens is visibly damaged due to cracks or deep scratches, it must be replaced.
The mains cables must be in impeccable condition and should be replaced immediately when even a
small problem is detected.
In order to protect the device from overheat the cooling fans (if any) and ventilation openings should be
cleaned monthly.
The interior of the device should be cleaned annually using a vacuum cleaner or air-jet.
The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out periodically to
optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates: damp,
smoky or particularly dirty surroundings can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the unit's optics.
Clean with a soft cloth using normal glass cleaning products.
Always dry the parts carefully.
Clean the external optics at least once every 30 days.
Clean the internal optics at least every 90 days.
Attention: We strongly recommend internal cleaning to be carried out by qualified personnel!
