5.2 Control connection
The fixture has 3-pin XLR connectors for DMX data input and output as shown below. Connection between the
console and fixture, and between fixtures must be made with 2 core screened DMX signal cable. Maximum
connecting distance of signal cable is 150 meters. Additional DMX512 signal-amplifier is recommended for longer
distance
Connect the Console’s DMX OUTPUT to the first fixture’s DMX INPUT, then the first fixture’s DMX OUTPUT to
the second fixture’s DMX INPUT and so on. It is recommended not to connect more than 32 units on a single DMX
universe. On the last fixture‘s output connect a DMX terminator. (The terminator is a 3-pin XLR connector with a
1/4W and 120Ω resistor between the pin 2 and pin 3) as shown below:
5.3 Testing
Connect the fixture to AC power. Check if the lamp is on and the fixture is independently controllable before
putting into operation.
 The voltage and frequency of the power source must be in compliance with the ones marked on the fixture. It
is strongly recommended that each fixture are to be connected to the power source separately so that they can
be switched on / off individually.
