Power Supply

Before plugging your unit in, be sure the source voltage in your area matches the voltage required for your 

every suit. Every unit is available in 100v and 240v version. Because line voltage may vary from venue to 

venue, you should be sure your unit voltage matches the wall outlet voltage before attempting to operate 

you unit.

DMX Linking

To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several DMX units try to use the shortest cable path 

possible. The order in which units are connected in a DMX line does not influence the DMX addressing. For 

example; a unit assigned a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at 

the end, or anywhere in the middle. When a unit is assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows 

to send DATA assigned to address 1 to that unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.

tween this device and a wall.
