GETTING STARTED

What’s In The Box?

• 1 x wiCICLE

Skywire Wireless DMX Receiv

• An AC power adaptor (5VDC, 1000ma)

Getting It Out Of The Box

The wiCICLE

Skywire Wireless DMX receiver is a teen

y-tin

y, really powerful, really

useful tool for decableifying y

our existence. Just think, no more becoming wrapped

from head to toe in DMX cables and struggling to escape for hours on end. Whew!

Well, now that y

ou’ve got y

our wiCICLE

Skywire, you should carefully unpack the

box and check the contents to ensure that all parts are present and in good condition.

If anything looks as if it has been damaged in tr

ansit, notify the shipper immediately

and keep the packing material for inspection. Again, please sa

ve the carton and all

packing materials. If a fixture must be returned to the factory, it is important that the

fixture be returned in the original factory box and packing.

Powering Up! PLEASE READ THIS SECTION

The wiCICLE

Skywire can be powered using the included AC power adaptor (“Wall-

Wart,

”) or directly via Blizzard Lighting products which are labelled as “wiCICLE

En-

abled.” These fixtures emplo

y special circuitry which allows the wiCICLE

to receive

power directly from the XLR connector body. Look for this logo on select fixtures:

• ONLY fixtures bearing this logo are certified

for use with the wiCICLE

without external

power .

• Unauthorized modification and/or using

the wiCICLE

with unapproved fixtures

may cause damage to the wiCICLE

or fix-

ture. UNDER NO

CIRCUMSTANCES

IS BLIZ-

ZARD LIGHTING RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE FROM SUCH OPERATION.

• Fixtures bearing the above logo

MUST only use cable and connectors which sepa

rate chassis/case ground from cable shielding. Cabling with the shield connected to

the connector’s case/chassis ma

y cause malfunction and damage to the wiCICLE

fixture.

• All fixtures must be powered directly off a switched circuit and cannot be run off a

rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer

channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch.

Please carefully read and understand the instructions in this manual thor-

oughly before attempting to operate this unit. These instructions contain
