Tempest 575H™ Safety Precautions

Power Supply: Before plugging your unit in, be sure the source volt-
age in your area matches the required voltage for your American DJ ®
Tempest 575H.™ The American DJ Tempest 575H®
™
is available in a
120v and 220v version. Because line voltage may vary from venue to
venue, you should be sure your unit voltages matches the wall outlet
voltage before attempting to operate you fixture.
DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal pro-
tocol used as a form of communication between intelligent fixtures
and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions from
the controller to the fixture. DMX data is sent as serial data that trav
-
els from fixture to fixture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR ter
-
minals located on all DMX fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA
“OUT” terminal).
DMX Linking: DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of
different manufactures to be linked together and operate from a sin-
gle controller, as long as all fixtures and the controller are DMX com
-
pliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several
DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. The order
in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the
DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1
may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end,
or anywhere in the middle. When a fixture is assigned a DMX address
of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to address 1
to that unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.
Dipswitches in DMX mode: This unit uses dipswitches to assign a
DMX address. Each dipswitch represents a binary value.
Dipswitch 1 address equals 1
Dipswitch 2 address equals 2
Dipswitch 3 address equals 4
Dipswitch 4 address equals 8
Dipswitch 5 address equals 16
Dipswitch 6 address equals 32
Dipswitch 7 address equals 64
Dipswitch 8 address equals 128
Dipswitch 9 address equals 254
Dipswitch 10 - Some units omit dipswitch 10. When a unit does
include dipswitch #10, it is usually used for special functions such as

sound activation.
Assigning DMX Address: Each dipswitch has a preset value. A
specific DMX address is set by combining the dipswitches that sum
your desired value. For example: To achieve a DMX address of 21,
combine dipswitches 1, 3, and 5. Since dipswitch 1 has a value of 1,
dipswitch 3 has a value of 4, and dipswitch 5 has a value of 16, the
combination of the three create a DMX value of 21.
Set DMX address 21: Set DMX address 201:
Dip-switches # 1 = 1 Dip-switches # 1 = 1
3 = 4 4 = 8
5 = 16 7 = 64
= 21 8 = 128
= 201
Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX and Master/Slave
Operation): The Tempest 575H™ can be controlled via DMX-512
protocol. The Tempest 575H™ is a one channel DMX unit. The DMX
address is set on the side panel of the Tempest 575H.™ Your unit and
your DMX controller require a standard 3-pin XLR
connector for data input and data output (Figure
1). If you are making your own cables, be sure to
use standard two conductor shielded cable (This
cable may be purchased at almost all pro sound
and lighting stores). Your cables should be made
with a male and female XLR connector on either
end of the cable. Also remember that DMX cable
must be daisy chained and can not be split.
Figure 1
Tempest 575H™ Set Up
Notice: Be sure to follow figures two and three when making your own
cables. Do not use the ground lug on the XLR connector. Do not con-
nect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield
conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding
the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behavior.
