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 stan-
dard 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.
