4.4. 3-Pin vs 5-Pin DMX cables
DMX connection protocols used by controllers and fixtures manufacturers are not
standardized around the world. However, two are the most common standards:
5-Pin XLR and 3-Pin XLR system. If you wish to connect your 5-Pin device to a 3-Pin
XLR input fixture, you need to use an adapter-cable or make it by yourself.
Following the wiring correspondence between 3-Pin and 5-Pin plug and socket
standards
