Connecting to the Link
To link one or more fixtures to a DMX controller:
l
Connect the male XLR connector of a DMX Data cable to the controller’s DMX Data Out connector.
l
Connect the Data cable’s female XLR connector to the Data In connector of the first (or next) fixture on the
DMX link.
l
Continue linking the remaining fixtures connecting a cable from the Data Out connector of each fixture to
the Data In connector of the next fixture on the link.
DMX Terminatation
For installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance or is in an electrically noisy environment, a DMX terminator on the
last fixture of the link prevents data reflection, which cancorrupt the data communication on the link.
Terminate the link by installing a 120 ohm, 1/4 watt (minimum) terminator in the fixture’s Data Out (female) cable connector in the last
fixture on each DMX link.
