DMX over CAT5e/6
Be sure to read the Notes/Warnings below:
NOTES:
1. Pin numbering and colors are in accordance with ANSI/TIA/EIA-568 scheme T568B.
2. Pin 8 should wired as signal common even if pins 3 and 6 are NOT wired so that both conductors 7 and 8 are at equal
potential.
WARNING:
Accidental connection to non-DMX512 equipment likely to be encountered (e.g., an Ethernet Hub at a patch bay) may
result in damage to equipment. Pins 4 and 5 may carry voltages outside the EIA-485 range in telecom applications (e.g.,
telephone ringing). Pins 4 and 7 may carry voltages outside the EIA-485 range in other applications (e.g., some manufac
-
turers whose distributed DMX512 buffering products require low voltage DC power may use these wires for this purpose).
Because of these various uses, mis-plugging unlike systems could cause serious damage.
DMX Addressing Information
The Zino LED Fixture requires one DMX Channel in a universe. See the example below for how to address the fixture.
• Channel 1: Intensity (0-255)
An intensity value of 0 will cause the fixture to not illuminate, while a value of 255 is the highest intensity.
