CONNECTIONS
Power Supply
Use the cable provided inside the special junction box. The power line must be protected by a differential magneto
thermal circuit breaker, while metal parts that might be electrically charged through the projector must be grounded.
Hypercolor 575 absorbs 940W at 230V. Makes sure the projector does not pull the cable in all different working
positions, and that sources of heat are not placed in the vicinity.
When in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Don’t power the projector with a dimmer circuit
Be careful with your operations. With a high voltage you can suffer a dangerous electric shock when touching the
wires! Inside the projector, the ignitor circuit have very high voltage, over 5Kv.
The User must ensure that the power supply is provided with a highly sensitive differential circuit breaker 30m/A to
protect the projector from indirect contacts, and that the grounding system PE is working properly.
Control Unit
HYPERCOLOR Projectors can be controlled by practically all types of controllers on the market that can execute the standard
DMX 512 protocol. Controller-projector and projector-projector connections require a two-core screened cable provided with
CANNON XLR 3 pin plugs and sockets. The ground braid on the screened cable must be connected to just one end of the
cable. The projector and cables must not be installed near overhead ducts for electrical cables or intense magnetic fields.
Projector Address
To make sure the projector functions properly, the dip-switches in the DMX ADDRESS AREA, on the rear panel(page 3,
object#7), must be correctly configured. Keep in mind that each HYPERCOLOR occupies 6 DMX channels . Each projector
must be set separately on its own BASE CHANNEL (or STARTING CHANNEL). The BASE CHANNEL assignment is obtained
by summing the values for each switch in the DMX SECTION (for example, to set a projector on BASE CHANNEL #39, you
must set dip-switches 32, 4, 2, and 1 to the ON position, because 32+4+2+1=39). In the Standard Operating Mode, this means
the HYPERCOLOR will receive signals on 6 channels following the BASE CHANNEL, BASE CHANNEL included (for example,
if the projector is set on BASE CHANNEL #39, it will receive signals on channels #39, 40, 41, 42, 43 and 44).
RESET procedure
To enable RESET proc. keep a stable DMX signal between 240 and 250 on all 6 channels for 5 seconds.
Do not forget to change the values after the reset start to avoid the continuous reset procedure.
