INSTALLATION
AQUA DRIVER 150 MOUNTING
The Aqua Driver 150 can be wall mounted either vertically or horizontally as required.
Two slotted holes (Ø 0.23” x 0.47” / Ø 6 x 12mm) are available on each side for mounting
purposes - see “Dimensions” on page 19.
CONTROL INPUT CONNECTIONS
The Aqua Driver 150 can either operate in
a standalone manner or be controlled by
DMX; IN and OUT ports are located on the
front panel. Each port provides both a 3-pin
terminal block plus a 3-pin XLR socket. See
below for useful DMX tips. Connect your DMX
cables to the terminal blocks as shown here:
TIPS FOR ACHIEVING SUCCESSFUL DMX CONTROL
•
Do not exceed a total cable length of 3,900 ft (1200m) without buffering.
•
Do not exceed a total of 32 devices/fixtures on a single line without buffering.
•
Use only connection cables with a characteristic impedance of 120Ω, preferably where
the DMX + and DMX – data lines are twisted around each other and the ground link exists
as a coaxial screen surrounding the inner cores, such as Belden® 9842 or equivalent.
•
Connect a 120Ω terminating resistor between the DMX + and DMX – output connections
of the final fixture.
•
Do not introduce a passive Y-split into the control cabling. If it is necessary to split the
control link in order feed fixtures located in different directions, use a powered DMX
splitter/buffer.
•
Ensure that the DMX + and DMX – connections do not become crossed at any point.

Insert the terminal block into the DMX socket
and ensure that it fully clicks into place. Repeat
for the DMX OUT if the control signal needs to
be fed to another device.
