Step 5: (IEC Only) connect the 
brown and blue wires to the 
rear of the IEC connector in 
the NEFM slot. Connections 
should be made according to 
the image at right.
Step 6: Make the power and data connections on the backplane.
a: Install the dimmer output ribbon cables. Open the black retaining tabs for each 
connector until they are at a 45° angle to the backplane. Press the connectors 
into their respective locations until the tabs lock in place at a 90° angle to the 
backplane. Make sure the proper side is facing up on each connector and 
that each connector is fully seated.
b: Install the power harness (Look at the pin shapes for proper orientation. It will 
only fit one way.)
c: Install the DMX connections. The wires travel out of the top on both styles of 
connectors.
d: Install the 3-pin beacon connector. The wires travel out of the top of the 
connector.
e: Connect the CAT5 Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 connector on the CEM3 
backplane. (Not shown in the drawing below for clarity.).
Step 7: Push the backplane completely into place in the rack. Be careful not to disrupt 
the power and data connections you just made. Make sure none of the wiring 
becomes stressed or pinched.
Step 8: Insert the backplane tabs in the side of the rack.
