5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors.
Some manufactures use 5-pin DMX-
512 data cables for DATA transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin DMX
fixtures may be implemented in a 3-pin DMX line. When inserting stan-
dard 5-pin data cables 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.

Installation
The unit should be mounted using a mounting clamp (not provided),
affixing it to the mounting bracket that is provided with the unit.
Always ensure that the unit is firmly fixed to avoid vibration and slip-
ping while operating. Always ensure that the structure to which you
are attaching the unit is secure and is able to support a weight of 10
times the unit’s weight. Also, always use a safety cable that can hold
12 times the weight of the unit when installing the fixture.
The equipment must be installed by a professional, and it must be
installed in a place where it is out of the reach of people’s grasp.
