                       Set Up

Power Supply:

 Before plugging your unit in, be sure the source volt-

age in your area matches the required voltage for your American DJ

Galaxian Move™.™ The American DJ

®

 Galaxian Move™ is available 

in a 115v and 230v version. Because line voltage may vary from venue 
to venue, you should be sure your unit voltage matches the wall outlet 

voltage before attempting to operate you fixture. The voltage is select

-

able  via  the  switch  located  on  the  rear  panel.  Also  be  sure  to  only 
use the included I.E.C. power cable supplied with the unit, this cable 
matches the voltage and current requirements of the unit.

DMX-512:

 DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal pro-

tocol used by most lighting and controller manufactures as a form of 
communication  between  intelligent  fixtures  and  controllers. 

A  DMX 

controller sends DMX data instructions from the controller to the fix-
ture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from fixture to fixture 
via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX 
fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA “OUT” terminal). 

DMX Linking: 

DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of 

different manufactures to be linked together and operate from a sin-

gle controller, as long as all fixtures and the controller are DMX com

-

pliant.

 To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several 

DMX  fixtures  try  to  use  the  shortest  cable  path  possible.  The  order 
in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the 
DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1 
may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end, 
or anywhere in the middle. Therefore, the first fixture controlled by the 
controller could be the last fixture in the chain. When a fixture is as-
signed a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA 
assigned to address 1 to that unit, no matter where it is located in the 
DMX chain.

Data  Cable  (DMX  Cable)  Requirements  (For 

DMX and Master/Slave Operation): 

The Galaxian 

Move™ can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. 
The Galaxian Move™ is a eight channel DMX unit. 
The  DMX  address  is  set  electronically  using  the 
controls on the front panel of the unit. Your unit and 
your DMX controller require a approved DMX-512 
110 Ohm Data cable for data input and data output (Figure 1). We rec-
