Joliet 100 Zoom
Securing with a safety cable
Secure the fixture with a safety cable (or other secondary attachment) that is approved for
the weight of the fixture so that the safety cable will hold the fixture if a primary attachment
fails.
Loop the safety cable through the eyebolt in the back of the fixture and around a secure
anchoring point. Do not loop the safety cable around the fixture's mounting bracket only, as
this will leave the fixture unsecured if it separates from the bracket.
DMX-512 connection/connection between fixtures
Occupation of the XLR-connection:
DMX OUT
1- Ground
2- Signal (-)
3- Signal (+)
If you are using controllers with this occupation, you can connect the DMX-output of the
controller directly with the DMX-input of the first fixture in the DMX-chain. If you wish to
connect DMX-controllers with other XLR-outputs, you need to use adapter-cables.
Building a serial DMX-chain:
Connect the DMX-output of the first fixture in the DMX-chain with the DMX-input of the next
fixture. Always connect one output with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are
connected.
DMX-512 connection with DMX terminator:
For installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance or is in an electrically noisy
environment, such as in a discotheque, it is recommended to use a DMX terminator. This
helps in preventing corruption of the digital control signal by electrical noise. The DMX
terminator is simply an XLR plug with a 120 resistor connected between pins 2 and 3, which is
then plugged into the output XLR socket of the last fixture in the chain.
Caution: At the last fixture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a
120 Ω resistor between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the
DMX-output of the last fixture.
Power connection
Power Requirements
The Joliet 100 Zoom luminaire operates on 100 to 240 volts AC (+/- 10%, auto-ranging). The
luminaire contains an auto-ranging power supply.
Power linking between fixtures:
The fixture with powercon in and out socket. Connect the power out to the power in socket
in the next fixture till all are connected.
Caution: maximum power linking - 8 units.

Operation
The Joliet 100 zoom can operate different modes. In each mode you can run the fixture as a
standalone fixture or in a master/slave configuration. This next section will detail the
differences in the operating modes.

Addressing
All fixtures should be given a DMX starting address when using a DMX signal, so that the
correct fixture responds to the correct control signals. This digital starting address is the
channel number from which the fixture starts to listen to the digital control information sent
out from the DMX controller. The allocation of this starting address is achieved by setting the
correct number on the display located on the base of the device.
You can set the same starting address for all fixtures or a group of fixtures, or make different
address for each fixture individually.
