Orbitron™ General Information

ower Supply:

Power Supply:P

Before plugging your unit in, be sure the source

voltage in your area matches the required voltage for your American

Orbitron.™ Because line voltage may vary from venue to venue,

you should be sure your unit voltages matches the wall outlet voltage

before attempting to operate you  xture.

DMX-512:

DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal pro-

tocol used as a form of communication between intelligent fixtures

and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions from

the controller to the fixture. DMX data is sent as serial data that trav-

els from fixture to fixture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR ter-

minals located on all DMX fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA

“OUT” terminal).

DMX Linking:

DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of

different manufactures to be linked together and operate from a sin-

gle controller, as long as all  xtures and the controller are DMX com-

pliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several

DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. The order

in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the

DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1

may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end,

or anywhere in the middle. When a fixture is assigned a DMX address

of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to address 1

to that unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.

Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX and Master/

Slave Operation):

The Orbitron can be controlled via DMX-512 pro-

tocol. The American DJ

Orbitron™ is a four channel DMX unit. The

DMX address is set on the side panel using the three function buttons

under the LCD. Your unit and your DMX controller require a standard

3-pin XLR connector for data input and data

output (Figure 1). If you are making your own

cables, be sure to use standard two conductor

shielded cable (This cable may be purchased at

almost all pro sound and lighting stores). Your

cables should be made with a male and female

XLR connector on either end of the cable.

Also remember that DMX cable must be daisy

chained and can not be split.

Special Note:

Line Termination.

When longer runs of cable are

used, you may need to use a terminator on the last unit to avoid erratic

behavior. A terminator is a 90-120 ohm 1/4 watt resistor which is con-

nected between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector (DATA + and

DATA -). This unit is inserted in the female XLR connector of the last

unit in your daisy chain to terminate the line. Using a cable terminator

(ADJ part number ZDMX/T) will decrease the possibilities of erratic

behavior.

Notice:

Be sure to follow  gure three when making your own cables.

Do not use the ground lug on the XLR connector. Do not connect the

cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield conduc-

tor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding the

shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behavior.

5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors:

Some manufactures use 5-pin XLR

connectors for DATA transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin XLR  xtures

may be implemented in a 3-pin XLR DMX line. When inserting stan-

dard 5-pin XLR connectors in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be

used, these adaptors are readily available at most electric stores. The

The Orbitron

™

may be operated in three dif-

ferent modes, however you must be sure to disconnect the power

supply after you change the operating mode. This allows the unit to

reset to the new operating mode. Failure to disconnect the power

supply after changing the operating mode may cause the unit to

function improperly.

•

Stand alone mode -

The unit will react to sound, chasing through

the several built in programs. You can also use the optional MINI/C

remote to control a blackout function.

• Master/Slave mode -

You can daisy chain up to 16 units together

to get a synchronized light show that will react to sound chasing

through several built in programs. You can also use the optional

MINI/C remote to control a blackout function.

•

DMX control mode -

This function will allow you to control each

individual fixtures traits with a standard DMX 512 controller such as

the American DJ

and LSC

DMX Operator™ or Show Designer.

™

Stand-Alone Operation (Sound Active):

This function allows a

single unit to run to the beat of the music. Only use this function when

running a single unit, or when running several units as individuals.

Please note this function does not allow individual control of the DMX

traits and will only run to the units built-in programs.

To activate the Sound-Active mode, use the function button to

select either a large or small program pattern (See “Master” on

the function button chart above). Large or Small is used to refer-

ence the room size the unit will be used in. A large program type

will use programs that cover a wide area and small program type

will use programs that cover a narrow area.

Orbitron™ Operation Orbitron™ Operation

The unit will now react to the low frequencies of music via the

internal microphone.

Adjust the audio sensitivity knob on the side of the unit to make

the unit more or less sensitive to sound.

Turning the sensitivity

knob in the clockwise direction will increase the sensitivity, turning

the knob in the counter-clockwise direction will decrease the

 xture’s sensitivity to sound.

The optional MINI/C Blackout Controller may be used in this

mode to control blackout.

Note: Stand-Alone operation require sound to activate! The units will

blackout in this mode to conserve bulb life when there is no sound

present.

Master-Slave Operation (Sound Active):

This function will allow

you to link up to 4 units together and operate to the built-in programs

without the use of an external controller. The units will all operate to

sound, via the “Master” unit’s internal microphone and sound sensitiv-

ity setting. In Master-Slave operation one unit will act as the controlling

unit and the others will react to the controlling units programs. Any unit

can act as a Master or as a Slave. Please note this function does not

allow individual control of the DMX traits and will only run to the units

built-in programs.

Using standard XLR microphone cables, as described on pages

 ve and six, daisy chain your units together via the XLR connec-

tors on the rear of the units. Remember the Male XLR connector

is the input and the Female XLR connector is the output. The  rst

unit in the chain (master) will use the female XLR connector only.

The last unit in the chain will use the male XLR connector only.

For longer cable runs we suggest a terminator at the last fixture.

Follow the chart at the end of this section for proper addressing.

Use the chart on the next page to set the program type, either

large or small. Large or Small is used to reference the room size

the unit will be used in. A large program type will use programs

that cover a wide area and small program type will use programs

that cover a narrow area.

Orbitron™ Cleaning

Orbitron™ Trouble Shooting

Fixture Cleaning:

Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the internal and exter-

nal optical lenses and mirror should be carried out periodically to

optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environ-

ment in which the fixture operates (I.e. smoke, fog residue, dust,

dew). In heavy club use we recommend cleaning on a monthly basis.

Periodic cleaning will ensure longevity, and crisp output.

Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the out-

side casing.

Use a brush to wipe down the cooling vents and fan grill.

Clean the external optics and mirror with glass cleaner and a soft

cloth every 20 days.

Clean the internal optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth every

30-60 days.

Always be sure to dry all parts completely before plugging the unit

back in.

Trouble Shooting:

Listed below are a few common problems that you may encounter,

with solutions.

No light output from the unit;

Be sure you have connected your unit into a standard 120V wall

outlet.

Be sure the external fuse has not blown. The fuse is located on

the bottom panel of the unit.

Remove the lamp cover and be sure the lamp is seated in its

socket properly. Occasionally lamps become loose during ship-

ping be sure the lamp is push in to its socket all the way.

Be sure the fuse holder is completely and properly seated.

Unit does not respond to sound;

Low frequencies (bass) should cause the unit to react to sound.

Tapping on the microphone, quiet or high pitched sounds may

not activate the unit.

Be sure the

SENSITIVITY KNOB (5)

is not set to the minimum

position.

Orbitron™ Fuse & Lamp Replacement

Caution:

Always replace with the exact same type lamp and fuse,

unless otherwise specified by an authorized American

techni-

cian. Replace with anything other than the specified part can damage

your unit and will void your manufactures warranty.

Warning:

If, after replacing the lamp or fuse either one continues

to blow, STOP using the unit. Contact customer support for further

instructions, you may have to return the unit for servicing. Continuing

to use the unit may cause serious damage.

Fuse Replacement:

Disconnect the unit’s main power sup-

ply. Insert a standard flat head screw driver in to the fuse holder

housing. Turn the screwdriver in counter-clockwise direction

to remove the fuse holder. Remove the fuse holder to expose

the fuse. Remove the old fuse and discard it. Replace the fuse

with the same type. Insert the fuse holder back into it’s hous-

ing and turn it in clockwise direction to lock the holder in place.

Lamp Replacement:

Caution! Never attempt to change the lamp

while the fixture is plugged in. Always disconnect the main power and

allow the unit ample time to cool before attempting to replace the

lamp. Lamp replacement has been made simple by incorporating the

use of a flip-up front cover that is retained by thumb screws.
