ETUP
AC Power
The HIVE™ has an auto-ranging power supply and it can work with an input voltage range of 100~240 VAC, 50/60 Hz.
To determine the product’s power requirements (circuit breaker, power outlet, and wiring), use the current value listed on the label affixed to the product’s back panel, or refer to the product’s specifications chart. The listed current rating indicates the product’s average current draw under normal conditions.
Always connect the product to a protected circuit (circuit breaker or fuse). Make sure the product has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the risk of electrocution or fire.
Fuse
Replacement
Never connect the product to a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel serves only as a 0–100% switch.
Disconnect the product from power before replacing the fuse.
1. Disconnect the product from power.
2. Wedge the tip of a flat-head screwdriver into the slot of the fuse holder.
3. Pry the fuse holder out of the housing.
4. Remove the blown fuse from the holder.
5. Replace with a fuse of the exact same type and rating.

·
Make sure that the structure or surface onto which you are mounting the product
can support the product’s weight (see the Technical Specifications ).
·
When mounting the product overhead, always use a safety cable. Mount the product securely to a rigging point, such as an elevated platform or a truss.
·
When rigging the product onto a truss, you should use a mounting clamp of appropriate weight capacity. The bracket has 13-mm holes, which are appropriate for this purpose.
·
When power linking multiple products, you must always consider the length of the power linking cable and mount the products close enough for the cable to reach.

Master/Slave
Mode
The Master/Slave mode allows a single HIVE™ unit (the “master”) to control the actions of one or more HIVE™ units (the “slaves”) without the need of a DMX controller. The master unit will be set to operate in Auto Program mode, while the slave units will be set to operate in a Slave mode (SL-0 or SL-1). Once set and connected, the slave units will operate in unison with the master unit.

Maintenance
Dust build-up reduces light output performance and can cause overheating. This can lead to reduction of the light source’s life and/or mechanical wear. To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear, clean the product at least twice a month. However, usage and environmental conditions contribute to increased cleaning frequency.
To clean the product, follow the instructions below:
· Unplug the product from power.
· Wait until the product is at room temperature.
· Use a vacuum (or dry compressed air) and a soft brush to remove dust collected on the external surface/vents.
· Clean all external optics and glass/transparent surfaces with a mild soap solution, ammonia-free glass cleaner, or isopropyl alcohol.
· Apply the solution directly to a soft, lint-free cotton cloth or a lens cleaning tissue.
· Softly wipe any dirt or grime to the outside edges of the external optics or glass/transparent surface.
· Gently polish the external optics and glass/transparent surfaces until they are free of haze and lint.
Always dry the external optics and glass/transparent surfaces carefully after cleaning them.
Do not spin the cooling fan/fans using compressed air because you could damage them.
