  5.5 DMX512 Connection 

 

The DMX512 is widely used in intelligent lighting control, with a maximum of 512 channels. 

 

1. If you using a controller with 5 pins DMX output, you need to use a 5 to 3 pin adapter-cable. 

2. On last unit, the DMX cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 ohm 1/4W 

resistor between pin 2(DMX-) and pin 3(DMX+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the 

DMX-output of the last unit. 

3. Connect the units together in a “daisy chain” by XLR plug from the output of the unit to the 

input of the next unit. The cable cannot be branched or split into a “Y” cable. DMX512 is a 

very high-speed signal. Inadequate or damaged cables, solder joints or corroded connectors 

can easily distort the signal and shut down the system. 

4. The DMX output and input connectors are pass-through to maintain the DMX circuit, when 

power is disconnected to the unit. 

5. Each lighting unit needs to have an address set to receive the data sent by the controller. 

The address number is between 0-511 (usually 0 & 1 are equal to 1). 

6. The end of the DMX512 system should be terminated to reduce signal errors. 

7. 3 pin XLR connectors are more popular than 5 pin XLR. 

3 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+)   

5 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (-), Pin 3: Positive signal (+)
