RUN LENGTHS - FIXTURE MAXIMUM
The maximum number of fixtures that can be driven in a single run is determined by the
supply voltage and the collective power requirements for the fixtures. Fixtures with differing
LED color options can be mixed freely as they all adhere to the same power specifications
(within their EO/SO/HO types).

RUN LENGTHS - OVERALL MAXIMUM
In addition to remaining within the maximum permitted length of
fixtures
in a single run (as
discussed above), you also need to adhere to the working limits for the overall length of the
whole installation
, ie the total length fixtures in the run
plus
all their additional feed and
link cabling, as listed below.
Note: These limits are imposed only by the power characteristics. The length of the DMX control
feed to the first fixture could be up to 1,500’ (457m) without buffering
(see ‘Important cabling
considerations’ on page 17 and “Tips for achieving successful DMX control” on page 19).

IMPORTANT: Ensure the voltage drop across the entire run does not exceed 9%.
(Note: All fixtures in a run will be controlled within a single DMX universe).
