The xture is equipped with both 3-pin and 5-pin XLR sockets for DMX input and output.The sockets are wired
in parallel.
Only use a shielded twisted-pair cable designed for RS-485 and 3-pin or 5-pin XLR-plugs and connectors in
order to connect the controller with the xture or one xture with another.
DMX - output DMX-input
XLR mounting-sockets (rear view): XLR mounting-plugs (rear view):
If you are using the standard DMX controllers, you can connect the DMX output of the controller directly with
the DMX input of the rst xture in the DMX chain. If you wish to connect DMX controllers with other XLR-out-
puts, you need to use adapter cables.
Building a serial DMX chain:
1.Connect the DMX output of the rst xture in the DMX chain with the DMX input of the next xture. Always
connect one output with the input of the next xture until all xtures are connected.
2.Use menu "DMX Settings " to set the DMX start address on all xtures (see "Fixture address" menu).
3.The option “Activate DMX mode" has to be conrmed in “DMX Settings" menu on all xtures.
Example:
DMX Address=173 DMX Address=78 DMX Address=1
Caution: At the last xture, the DMX cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 Ω resistor
between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a 3-pin (or 5pin) XLR plug and plug it into the DMX output of the last
xture.
