• If FLEX color does not match its corresponding channel, rewire and retest each channel. Once FLEX color matches corresponding channel, reset DMX module and move on to Step 5 (pg. 9)

• If any channel is not functioning, check wiring, and retest each channel. If channel error persists, contact Optic Arts at (213) 250-6069.

A. Hold down all three buttons for 5 seconds to reset eldoLED® Linear100D. If eldoLED® Linear100D display does not turn on, move on to next step.

B. Wire a different eldoLED® Linear100D to same driver. If eldoLED® Linear100D display does not turn on, repeat Step A with multiple eldoLED® Linear100D modules. If multiple eldoLED® Linear100D displays still do not turn on, move on to next step.

C. Wire eldoLED® Linear100D to another driver. Driver must be off first. Do not wire hot. If eldoLED® Linear100D display does not turn on, repeat Step A with multiple eldoLED® Linear100D modules on the most current driver. If multiple eldoLED® Linear100D

displays do not turn on, turn to next page to review TROUBLESHOOTING MALFUNCTIONING ELECTRONIC DRIVER.

A. Wire one channel of FLEX product directly into ELECTRONIC DRIVER. If FLEX product does not turn on, move on to next step.

B. Wire the same channel of FLEX product to a different ELECTRONIC DRIVER. If FLEX product still does not turn on, repeat Step A & B with a different FLEX channel or FLEX product. If FLEX product still does not turn on, check input power to driver(s) (120/277 VAC).

• If issue is found with input power, resolve issue and return to Step 2 (pg. 3).

• If input power is not the issue, contact Optic Arts at (213) 250-6069 to replace ELECTRONIC DRIVER(s).

All DMX cabling shall conform to ANSI E1.27-2-2009 (R2014), recommended practice for permanently installed control cables for use with ANSI E1.11 (DMX512-A) and USITT DMX512/1990 products. The maximum total length of a daisy-chain DMX control run is 300 meters (1,000 feet) using the lowest grade cabling

conforming to ANSI E1.27-2-2009 (R2014). Improved wire gauge and shielding can extend this limitation. Some additional devices such as repeaters or splitters may also extend this limitation. Consult manufacturer to validate any limitation extensions. Every DMX control run must be terminated after the last DMX

control module in a daisy-chain sequence with a DMX terminator..

TROUBLESHOOTING DMX CONTROLLER

A. If controller is unresponsive, push to turn off controller (red LED will light on Controller), then push to turn on (blue LED will light on controller) & retest controller functionality. If light fixture does not turn on, move on to next step.

B. Turn on controller and hold down to test and see if light fixture ramps up or down. Repeat, hold down button 2-3 times. If FLEX LED does not turn on, move on to next step.

C. Turn on controller and tap each of the following color buttons _________ or _________ or _________ or _________, If FLEX LED does not turn on, then hold down color wheel buttons to test if LED brightens/dims. Repeat 2-3 times for each. If FLEX LED does not turn

on, move on to next step.

D. Turn on controller and scroll through center color wheel. If FLEX LED does not turn on, move on to next step.

E. Set groups on LinearDrive100D (See Step 4.2, page 4) to COLOR, then SHOW, then back to DMX. Repeat steps from Troubleshooting Step A. If FLEX LED does not turn on, move on to next step.

F. Check wiring (See Step 4, page 4), then check every setting following to match corresponding FLEX LED. Repeat steps from Troubleshoot Step A. If FLEX LED does not turn on, move on to next step.

G. Reset eldoLED® Linear100D to factory settings and start from Step 4 (see page 4). Repeat Troubleshooting DMX Controller.
