DMX512 control
The wires must not come into contact with each other, otherwise
the devices will not work at all, or will not work properly.
Please note, the starting address depends upon which controller is being used.
Only use a DMX cable and 3-pin XLR plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller with the fixture
or one fixture with another.
Occupation of the XLR connection:
If you are using controllers with this occupation, you can connect the DMX output of the controller directly
with the DMX input of the first device in the DMX chain. If you wish to connect DMX controllers with other
XLR outputs, you need to use adapter cables.
Building a serial DMX chain:
Connect the DMX output of the first device in the DMX chain with the DMX input of the next device. Always
connect one output with the input of the next device until all devices are connected.
Caution:
At the last fixture, 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 fixture.
POWER SUPPLY
The device can be operated with mains voltage and for mobile use via the internal rechargeable battery.
Mains operation
1
Connect the device to the mains with the enclosed power supply cable. Do not connect it to a dimming
pack.

The IEC jack Power Out allows for power supply of further devices. A maximum of 8 fixtures may be
linked together. After every 8 devices, the fixtures must have a renewed connection with the power
mains. Matching power cables with IEC plugs and IEC inline jacks are available as accessory.
3
When operating the device via the mains, the automatic charging for the rechargeable battery is always
active even if the unit is switched off. To prevent unnecessary power consumption, always disconnect
the mains plug from the mains socket if the unit is not used for a longer period.
