Finally, just FYI 25.4mm is 1 inch.
Method 2 : Installation using U Bracket Claps with half Cheeseboros/couplers.
[The U brackets and the appropriate base for the mounting these brackets are an after sales accessory.
They do not come as standard when the fixture is purchased].
U brackets can be used as an alternative installation method. They can have either half cheeseboros or C
clamps fitted to them.
Fit the half cheeseboros or C clamps to the U brackets. Then fit the U brackets to the MY150 using the
camlocs.
Finally, fit a safety chain to MY 150. Don’t clamp the safety to the half cheeseboros or C clamp. That defeats
the reason for a safety cable….namely a SEPARATE backup to the primary hanging mechanism.
DMX-512 control connection.
Connect the 3 pin XLR cable to the DMX controller and then to the first MY150 in the daisy chain. Doing this
way round avoids the pain of rewiring, if you get the wrong end of the cable back at the controller.
Continue wiring from one MY 150 to another in a daisy chain manner. Never try to Y split cables. Never try to
“star wire” a DMX cable run. It will not work.
If additional cable needs to be made up then two-core cable with a screen needs to be purchased. For wiring
please see the diagram below.
