DMX interface
DMX is used as communication bus between different devices in the light technic. Each device has an input
and an output, so that the bus can be looped between the different devices. According the standard a five wire
cable with XLR connector is used.
You can use the DMX input port to connect a DMX device (DMX console) to the projector. This way you can
control the projector from that DMX device (console). The DMX output port can be connected with the next
device in the loop.

DMX
DMX-512 Lighting protocol over RS-485 interface. Carries information of 512 channels from a
lighting controller to lighting devices. Standardized by USITT.
RS232/RS422 input
The communication interface of the NJORD series projector supports RS232 and RS422 serial
communication on two different types of input connectors, a Sub-D connector and an USB connector acting as
RS input when connected to an USB input of a PC.
You can use the RS232/RS422 input to connect a local PC to your NJORD series projector. By this way you
can configure and control your projector from your local PC.
