Network
The network interface of the Mirror Head is for Art-Net™ DMX512 communication. Please note that
the Mirror Head supports static IP addresses only (DHCP is not supported) and comes with a factory
set IP address set to 2.0.0.3, netmask 255.0.0.0. To change the IP-address use the (UP), (DOWN) and
(ENTER) buttons. After you changed the IP address press (ENTER) over and over again until you see
“DONE” on the top of the screen. Changes will then apply immediately to the network interface of
the Mirror Head. To force an ARP update disconnect the network cable for at least 5sec.
NOTE: Depending on the network infrastructure it is maybe necessary to reset the switches and / or network interfaces of other
devices if the IP-address of the Mirror Head changes.
NOTE: Every device in an IP network must have its own IP address.
NOTE: You cannot use Art-Net™ DMX512 and analog DMX at the same time. Changing this physical layer requires a power off-on
cycle of the Mirror Head.
Projector
The Mirror Head offers the possibility for a remote control of the projector over DMX via the
RS232 interface. This menu allows you to select the connected projector brand (see Appendix for
compatibility and function list) to be used with the Mirror Head. The projector must be connected
with the Mirror Head using a RS232 cable and the remote control function must be enabled and set
correctly on the projector.
Mirror angle
This option offers you the possibility to change the tilt-axis between Mode-90° and Mode-162° for
specific versions of the Mirror Head. Switching between Mode-90° and Mode-162° does not require
a restart of the Mirror Head. If you switch the mode the center position on the tilt-axis of the Mirror
Head changes.
WARNING: Use the 162° only if your Mirror Head is compatible with this setting – Check the
162° compatibility list in the appendix.
DMX
By default the DMX-Address of the unit starts at 001. Here you can set the offset if you need to
change the DMX-Address of this unit. The DMX fixture for the Mirror Head is in the appendix.
NOTE: The Mirror Head unit is always a slave device.
LEDs (MH08–MH13 only)
By default the RGB LEDs of the Mirror Head (if available for your model - see appendix) are controlled over Art-Net™/DMX by selecting
the specific RGB and intensity channel values. If the LEDs should be on no matter if there is a DMX signal or not, the fixed values can
be set here.
