32 fixtures can be connected per DMX run.

Installation Procedure
1.
Attach a C-clamp or other mounting hardware (not provided) to the yoke of the fixture.
2.
Attach the fixture to a pipe or other approved mounting device.
3.
Insert or attach additional accessories, if desired.
4.
Connect the provided power cable.
5.
If using hard wired DMX, plug the RJ45 connector into the DMX in port on the rear of the
fixture.
6.
If linking additional fixtures via DMX, plug a RJ45 cable into the DMX thru port on the rear of
the fixture.
Note:
ArcSystem fixtures are not self terminating. You must terminate the last fixture in
line with a 120
Ω
resistor.
To purchase an RJ45 terminator, please contact your ETC customer service representative
and request part number N4086.
7.
Toggle the power switch to “ON".
8.
Rotate the fixture so it is roughly focused to its final resting position. This will assist in final
focus procedures.
