Power Spot 700CMY™ 7. UNDERSTANDING DMX DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal protocol used by most lighting and controller manufactures as a form of communication between intelligent fixtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions from the controller to the fixture.
Power Spot 700CMY™ Notice: Be sure to follow the figure on the previous page when making your own cables. Do not use the ground lug on the XLR connector. Do not connect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behavior.
Power Spot 700CMY™ 5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors. Some manufactures use 5-pin XLR connectors for DATA transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin XLR fixtures may be implemented in a 3-pin XLR DMX line. When inserting standard 5-pin XLR connectors in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used, these adaptors are readily available at most electric stores. The chart below details a proper cable conversion.
Power Spot 700CMY™ selected fixture. In the case of the Power Spot 700CMY™, which is a 24 channel fixture, you should set the starting DMX address of the first unit to 1, the second unit to 25 (24 + 1), the third unit to 49 (24 + 25), and so on. Note: During start-up the Power Spot 700CMY™, will automatically detect whether a DMX data signal is being received or not.
