The electrical connection must be carried out by a qualified electrician. Ensure that the mains frequency and voltage correspond to those for which the device is designed, as shown in the electrical data label.
CONNECTION TO THE DMX CHAIN
Use a cable conforming to specifications EIA RS-485: pole twisted, shielded, 120Ohm characteristic impedance and low capacity (SAGITTER SG DMX3 – SG DMX5). Do not use microphone cable or other cable with different characteristics than those specified. Terminations must be made with male / female XLR 3-pin connectors. You must enter on the last device a terminal plug with a 120Ohm resistance (min 1/4 W) between terminals 2 and 3. IMPORTANT: The cables must not come into contact with each other or with the metal housing of the connectors. The housing itself must be connected to the shield braid and to pin 1 of the connectors.
The transceiver SG WECONBOX has 2 operative modes.
Setup mode and Working Mode. To switch from one operating mode to another, the device must not be connected to the DMX line.
USE
The transceiver SG WECONBOX leaves our warehouse already set as default in Transmitter Protocol 1: LED status (2) blue. If this is the desired Working Mode, it is possible to directly go to the section 5.2, specific section 5.2.3.
SETUP MODE
Setup mode is used in order to set the operative protocol. To enter in Setup mode:
- When the device is OFF, press and hold the multifunction button (3).
- Switch ON the device
- When the status LED (2) will turn white, release the multifunction button (3).
In this status, by pressing again and repeatedly the multifunction button (3) it will be possible to choose between 5 different operative protocols related to different colors of the status LED (2):
- RED: WECON protocol 6 groups
- GREEN: Receiver protocol
- BLUE: Transmitter protocol 1
- YELLOW: Receiver / Transmitter 7 groups protocol
- MAGENTA: Transmitter protocol 2
After selected the protocol to use, press and hold the multifunction button (3). After that the status LED (2) will have a little flash with different colors, release the multifunction touch button (3), the device will enter in Working mode and the the status LED will assume one of the colors described in the following sections.
WORKING MODE
WECON PROTOCOL 6 GROUPS (SETUP mode Red)
In this mode, the status LED (2) will assume 6 different colors corresponding to different transmitter / receiver modes depending on the color of the group. The color of the group will be chosen by repeatedly pressing the multifunction button (3).
| STATO E COLORE |
| Group 1 Red |
| Group 2 Green |
| Group 3 Blue |
| Group 4 yellow |
| Group 5 Cyan |
| Group 6 Magenta |
Switching between transmitter / receiver mode will take place automatically depending on whether a DMX console unit is connected to the device (transmitter), or whether a projector is connected (receiver).
RECEIVER PROTOCOL (SETUP mode: Green)
In this condition, the status LED (2) will assume different colors corresponding to different working modes as indicated in the table below:
| STATUS AND COLOR | DESCRIPTION |
| White fixed | The receiver is not linked to any transmitter |
| Red quickly blink | The receiver is linked to a transmitter, but the transmitter is OFF |
| Green slowly blink | The receiver is linked to a transmitter, the transmitter is ON, but not connected to a DMX signal |
| Green fixed | The receiver is linked to a transmitter, the transmitter is ON, and connected to a DMX signal |
| Green quickly blink | The receiver is linking to a transmitter. This phase lasts only a few seconds, then the LED will assume a status as described above. |
In order to unlink the receiver from the transmitter it is possible to follow 2 different ways:
- Do the massive unlink from the transmitter (see the section related to the Transmitter protocol operating mode)
- Do the single unlink in the receiver, by pressing and hold the multifunction button (3), until the status LED (2) will have a little blue flash. Then release the multifunction button (3) and the status LED (2) will come white again.
TRANSMITTER PROTOCOL 1 (SETUP mode Blue – DEFAULT SETTING)
TRANSMITTER PROTOCOL 2 (SETUP mode Magenta)
In this condition, the status LED (2) will assume different colors corresponding to different working modes as indicated in the table below:
| STATUS AND COLOR | DESCRIPTION |
| Blue slowly blink | Transmitter ON, but not connected to a DMX signal |
| Blu fixed | Transmitter ON, and connected to a DMX signal |
In order to link the receivers, press and hold the multifunction button (3). In this situation the LED status (2) will quickly blink in blue color for few seconds until the link is finished.
In order to unlink all the receivers at once (massive unlink), press and hold the multifunction button (3). When the status LED (2) will start to quickly flash in blue color, release the multifunction button (3). The status LED (2) will be RED for few seconds until the unlink is finished. After the status LED (2) will come in one of the status indicated in the table before.
RECEIVER TRANSMITTER 7 GROUPS PROTOCOL (SETUP mode Yellow)
In this mode, the status LED (2) will assume 7 different colors corresponding to different transmitter / receiver modes depending on the color of the group. The color of the group will be chosen by repeatedly pressing the multifunction button (3).
| STATUS AND COLOR |
| Group 1 Red |
| Group 2 Green |
| Group 3 Yellow |
| Group 4 Blue |
| Group 5 Magenta |
| Group 6 Cyan |
| Group 7 White |
Switching between transmitter / receiver mode will take place automatically depending on whether a DMX console unit is connected to the device (transmitter), or whether a projector is connected (receiver).
MAINTENANCE
To ensure optimal performance, the unit must be frequently cleaned. Unplug the device from the mains and let it cool for at least 35 minutes to avoid the risk of burns. Use a vacuum cleaner or an air compressor or a soft brush or a cloth to remove the dust deposited.
