1. Connect the (male) 3 pin connector side of the DMX cable to the output (female) 3 pin connector
of the first fixture.
2. Connect the end of the cable coming from the first fixture which will have a (female) 3 pin
connector to the input connector of the next fixture consisting of a (male) 3 pin connector. Then,

Often, the setup for Master-Slave
and Standalone operation requires
that the first fixture in the chain be
initialized for this purpose via either
settings in the control panel or DIP-
switches. Secondarily, the fixtures
that follow may also require a slave
setting. Please consult the
“Operating Instructions” section in
this manual for complete instructions
for this type of setup and
configuration.
