The Stairville Tri Flat PAR Profile 18x3W is a professional LED lighting effect. Before first use, remove the plastic foil from the remote control battery. The device can be operated in stand-alone mode, master/slave configuration, or via DMX controller. Always ensure proper ventilation and do not connect to a dimmer.
Safety Instructions
- Electrical Safety: Ensure input voltage matches the device rating. Use only proper, insulated DMX cables. Never remove covers; there are no user-serviceable parts inside.
- Operational Safety: Do not look directly into the light source. Strobe lighting can trigger seizures in photosensitive individuals.
- Installation Safety: Always secure the device with a secondary safety attachment (safety cable or chain) when hanging. Maintain a distance of at least 1.5m from the illuminated surface.
Installation
The unit can be installed in hanging or standing positions. Use the two-piece bracket for mounting. Ensure the mounting surface is stable and the stand can support the weight of the device. When using DMX, connect the controller to the first unit and daisy-chain subsequent units, terminating the last device with a 110 Ohm resistor.



Operating
The device features a main menu accessible via the [Mode] button. Use [Setup] to select options and [Up]/[Down] to adjust values. Settings are retained after power-off.



Operating Modes
- Automatic: Preprogrammed shows (Pr.01–Pr.09) with adjustable speed and strobe frequency.
- Sound Control: Sound-activated show with adjustable sensitivity (SV.00–SV.31).
- DMX Mode: Supports 3, 5, or 7-channel modes. Set the DMX address (d.001–d.512) via the menu.
- Constant Colour: Mix individual RGB intensities (0–255) to create custom static colours.
Remote Control
The included IR remote allows for quick access to blackout, auto mode, sound control, strobe effects, and direct colour selection.
Technical Specifications
- Light Source: 18 x 3W RGB LEDs
- DMX Channels: 3, 5, 7
- Power Consumption: 60 W
- Supply Voltage: 100–240 V, 50/60 Hz
- Dimensions: 210 mm x 270 mm x 135 mm (without bracket)

Troubleshooting
If the unit does not work, check the mains connection and the main fuse. If there is no DMX response, verify that the controller is on, cables are connected properly, and the DMX address is set correctly. If the remote is unresponsive, check the battery and ensure a clear line of sight to the infrared receiver.
Cleaning
Regularly clean the optical lenses with a soft cloth and lens cleaner. Clean fan grids of dust to prevent overheating. Always switch off and disconnect the device before cleaning.
Practical help
Common problems
Check the mains connection and the main fuse.
Ensure DMX controller is on, check DMX cables/connectors, verify address settings and DMX polarity.
Check remote battery, move closer to the unit, or try a different angle to the infrared receiver.
