Cineo Lighting Maverick - Manual (Page 7)

High Voltage setting (HV)
The Maverick fi xture is designed for use with a 24VDC AC adapter when used on house
power. The HV switch allows the fi xture to be confi gured for use at 120 watts or up to 135
watts, depending on the application.
For portable use, Cineo provides a small, lightweight AC adapter, capable of operating from
90-240 VAC, with a 24VDC output of 120 watts. The mounting bracket for this AC adapter is
designed for quick removal of the adapter from the fi xture when minimum weight is a factor.
Note the location of switch closest to the bottom of the fi xture, which controls the HV setting
(labeled “Option B”). To set the fi xture for 120 watt operation at 24 VDC, the switch position
should be DOWN. The Yellow LED on the back of the fi xture will illuminate, indicating the 120
watt mode is selected. This is the default mode when the fi xture is shipped from the factory.
When the position of this switch is
UP, the fi xture is running at 135 watts. In this mode the fi xture MUST be powered with a 150
watt or greater power source or damage to the power source may occur.
Local and Remote Dimming
When correct DC power is applied to the unit, the green LED illuminates on the back,
between the cooling fi ns. The output of the Maverick is controlled with the local control knob
on the back of the fi xture. The fi xture does not employ an on/off switch; when the knob
position is at 0, the fi xture is virtually off, as it draws only 10 ma of power. The dimming curve
is logarithmic in nature, providing a very “analog” characteristic to its control.
Remote Dimming via DMX
Cineo offers a DMX interface module for control of the fi xture via standard DMX lighting
protocol. The interface module (900.0087) attaches to either the yoke or the BackPak
accessory and connects to the Maverick fi xture’s AUX port via an included RJ45 cable. The
module includes both DMX IN and DMX THRU via standard
5-pin XLR connections. The DMX pin-out wiring is as follows:
• Pin 1: Signal Common
• Pin 2: Data -
• Pin 3: Data +
• Pin 4: Spare
• Pin 5: Spare
The DMX control line is automatically self-terminating and
does not require external DMX termination when no cable is
inserted into the DMX THRU connector.
Note that when the DMX control is in use and DMX control
signal is lost, the fi xture will hold its last level. When the
Maverick loses power, it retains all of its DMX settings when power is resumed.
