DMX512 CONTROL
Via DMX cable
A DMX512 data link is required in order to control the device via DMX. The device provides 3-pin XLR
connectors for DMX connection.
1 Connect the output of your DMX controller to the DMX input DMX IN of the device with a DMX cable.
2 Connect the DMX output DMX OUT of the device to the DMX input of the next unit in the chain. Always
connect one output to the input of the next unit until all units are connected.
3 At the last unit, the DMX cable has to be terminated. Plug the terminator with a 120 Ω resistor between
Signal (–) and Signal (+) in the DMX output of the last unit.
4 If the cable length exceeds 300 m or the number of DMX devices is greater than 32, it is recommended
to insert a DMX level amplifier to ensure proper data transmission.
XLR connection:
Wireless DMX transmission with QuickDMX
The device features an alternative DMX input for a QuickDMX receiver (sold separately). This connector
allows for wireless transmission of DMX control signals to the device. The connector is designed as a USB
port which provides the required 5 V operating voltage for the receiver. With QuickDMX devices, extensive
cabling between the DMX controller and the device is not required.
