Hey,
So I've bought an American DJ Nucleus Pro light, and set it up for the first time the other night with its own cable. Unfortunately, I didn't do my research and just presumed it was a standard 13A IEC Cable. Anyway, these are the specs, which are REALLY confusing me at the moment. I desperately need to use this, please help!
Model: Nucleus Pro
Voltage: 100-240V 50Hz/60Hz
Power Consumption: 155W
Fuse: 7 Amp
Please note: This fixture contains a electronic balast, which will auto sense the voltage when it is plugged into the power source.
--
SO anyway, I plugged it in with a 13A IEC connector earlier on, and now it won't work. It came on for a few seconds, and then died. I'm really hoping this may have something to do with it detecting, and then rejecting the incorrectly amped IEC Cable, but I'm not sure.
However, the following specs are present on the back of the piece:
AC230V - 50Hz
Fuse T6.3A/250V
Power Draw: 1.12 A
It also says:
-unit must be grounded
-replace with same fuse/amp
---
SO, after trying loads of different IEC cables, I changed the fuse in one to 3A, which brings the light on again. Same thing happens though, on for about 10 seconds, then this time a LOUD Beep, and off again.
Any suggestions? I'm still learning... and am reallly confused now
