3. SETUP Before replacing a fuse, disconnect the power cord. ALWAYS replace with the same type and rating of fuse. Fuse Replacement The Motif™ Metro utilizes a high-output switch-mode power supply with an internal fuse. Under normal operating conditions, the fuse should not require replacement. The fuse is field replaceable, however it is an advanced procedure suited to qualified individuals.
Cable Connectors Cables must have a male XLR connector on one end and a female XLR connector on the other end. (Duh!) INPUT 2 A Word on Termination: OUTPUT 1 3 DMX is a resilient communication protocol, however errors still occasionally occur. Termination reduces signal errors, and therefore best practices include use of a terminator in all circumstances. If you are experiencing problems with erratic fixture behavior, especially over long signal cable runs, a terminator may help improve performance.
Fixture Linking (M/S Mode) 1. Connect the male connector side of the DMX cable to the output female connector of the first fixture. First Fixture in Chain DMX IN DMX OUT Next Fixture in Chain DMX IN DMX OUT 2. Connect the end of the cable coming from the first fixture which will have a female connector to the input connector of the next fixture consisting of a male connector. Then, proceed to connect from the output as stated above to the input of the following fixture and so on.
