Rainbow PP II™ Operation
Power Supply: Before plugging your unit in, be sure the source volt-
age in your area matches the required voltage for your American DJ®
Rainbow PP II™. The American DJ® Rainbow PP II
are available in
a 120v and 220v version. Because line voltage may vary from venue
to venue, be sure to plug your fixture into a wall outlet with a match
-
ing power supply before attempting to operate.
IMPORTANT! When you set this system up for the first time, con-
nect all of your rainbow tubes and then plug the tubes into a
power source, NOT the Rainbow PP II. If the tubes all turn white
then the tube connections are okay.
Operating Modes and Set Up:
Rainbow PP II™ Control: This will allow you to control your Rainbow
Tubes with the Rainbow PP II controller. You can choose one of the
30 programs to run, and control the speed and interval time of each
program.
1. Start by daisy chaining the Rainbow Tubes™ together. Attached to
each Rainbow Tube II™ is a Male 3-pin connector and a Female
3-pin connector.
Use the attached 3-pin cables to link your units
together. Remember that the Male 3-pin connector is the input and
the Female 3-pin connector is the output. The first unit in the chain
will use the female 3-pin connector only. The last unit in the chain
will use the male 3-pin connector only.
2. You will also have to link the power cords to each other, as you did
with the 3-pin cables.
3. The Rainbow Tube IIs™ connect to the Rainbow PP II™ by the 3-
pin cables that are attached to the Rainbow Tube IIs™.
4. Connect your first Rainbow Tube™ in your chain to the 3-pin Out-
put connection on the Rainbow PP II™.
power source. If more Rainbow Tube IIs are being used you can
continue to link them by the 3-pin cables but you should use
more then one power source.

Rainbow PP II™.

is the fastest speed.
(strobing) adjustment is 0 -100, 0 is the slowest stobe Flash
speed, and 100 is the fastest strobe speed.

Designer™. Note: When Channel 1 is in use it will override/dis-
able the static colors on channels two (2), three (3), and four (4).
