ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
The electrical installation should be carried out by qualified personal only, according to the
regulations for electrical and mechanical safety in your country.
How to connect the LED-projectors to the output of the unit:
Important: Switch the Micro Led Manager OFF before you install the LED-projectors! The maximum
total load of the Micro Led Manager is 50W, spread over 3 colors: each of the 3 colors has a max.
load of 16W ~ 17W!
Two different types of passive LED projectors can be connected:
A. LED Projectors with a special 4pin connector (ex. LED STRIP):
Use the supplied conversion
cable
and
connect
the
internal
4
wires
to
the
corresponding 4 terminals of
the MICRO LED MANAGER.
Fix all projectors properly and daisy chain the in/output cables until you reach the maximum allowed
load. Make sure to fasten the plastic ring of the connector.
B. LED Projectors with open wires (ex. LED GROUND LIGHT):
Simply connect the colored wires to the corresponding terminals on the LED MICRO MANAGER.
Make sure not to exceed the maximum allowed load:
White wire: This is the common wire (anode)
Red wire: This the power for the red LEDs (max.
16W ~ 17W)
Green wire: This the power for the green LEDs
(max. 16W ~ 17W)
Blue wire: This the power for the blue LEDs
(max. 16W ~ 17W)
Remark: the outputs to the LED-projectors are short circuits
protected. However when a short circuit occurred, it must be
reset: disconnect the Micro LED
Manager for about
10seconds from the mains and plug it back in.
Connecting an external analog switch for blackout:
Using any ordinary on/off switch, you can put the output of the
Micro LED Manager in blackout, even if it's controlled by
DMX: for example you can use a regular "wall switch" to turn
the LED-light on/off at any moment!
Connected wall switch in OFF position (contacts open):
output = ON
Connected wall switch in ON position (contacts closed):
output = OFF (blackout)
Connecting the optional LED WALL DIMMER:
The LED WALL DIMMER is a small, easy to use, controller
that can be installed in any standard wall connection box. This
controller can be connected directly to the Micro LED
Manager. The 0V & +12V should be connected through a
normal 2wire cable. The DMX-signal should be connected
using a good quality balanced DMX-cable with good
shielding.
Remark 1: the Micro LED Manager should be set to DMX-
address 001, using the traditional DIP switches (see "DMX
addressing to learn how to do this)
Remark 2: if you want to control more than 1 (Micro) LED
manager, just connect the LED Managers together with the
DMX in/outputs and put all DMX addresses to 001.

MICRO LED MANAGER
ENGLISH
Electrical installation in Master/slave-mode:
You need to "daisy chain" the DMX in/outputs of 2 or more units with a good quality balanced cable
Switch the unit with the free DMX-input connector to master, the other units are automatically switched
as slaves. The DIP-switches on the slave units are disabled.
Electrical installation in Master/slave-mode with the LEDCON-02 (or LEDCON-01) remote:
You need to "daisy chain" the DMX in/outputs of 1 or more units with the output of the LEDCON-02
remote using a good quality balanced cable
The LEDCON-02 remote will be used to control all connected slaves. The Micro Led Managers are
automatically switched as slaves. The DIP-switches on the slave units are disabled.
Electrical installation in DMX-mode:
The DMX-protocol is a widely used high speed signal to control intelligent light equipment. You need to
"daisy chain" your DMX controller and all the connected units with a good quality balanced cable
To prevent strange behavior of the light effects, due to interferences, you must use
a 90Ω to 120Ω terminator at the end of the chain. Never use Y-splitter cables, this
simply won't work!
DIP-switch 10 must be set to OFF on all units. Each unit in the chain needs its
proper start address so it knows which commands from the DMX-controller it has to
decode. When you need a lot of power you can use several Micro Led Managers
and give them the same start address. See the previous chapter to learn how to set the DMX addresses.
DMX ADDRESSING
How to set the DMX addresses:
There are 3 ways to set the DMX-address of the units. If you use setting options A or B you MUST set
ALL DIP-switches to OFF position.
A. Setting individual DMX-addresses per Micro LED Manager:
Make sure that ALL DIP-switches are set to OFF position!
Make sure the DMX cables of all units are connected.
Connect the first unit to a universal DMX controller.
Connect all units to the mains so they are switched on.
Set all DMX-channels on your DMX-controller to zero (value 000).
