4.1. Electrical connections
If you wish to change the power supply settings, see the chapter Appendix. Connect the fixture to the
mains with the enclosed power cable and plug. The earth has to be connected.

4.2. DMX connections
To make a DMX512 connection go ahead like it is described in the picture. Make sure that you
use shielded cable. 3pole or 5pole XLR cables are suitable.
Important! After the last device the line has to be terminated. In order to do this you have to solder
a 120
Ω resistor between the pins Data + and Data -. You can solder this end resistor on a 3pin or
5pin XLR: Plug this adapter into the DMX output of the device.
4.3. DMX connection with terminator
Where the DMX cable has to run a long distance or the equipment is operated in an electrically noisy
environment like a disco for installations, we recommend using a DMX terminator. This prevents
corruption of the digital control signal by electrical noise. The DMX terminator is simply an XLR
connector with a 120
Ω resistor between pins 2 and 3, which is then plugged into the XLR output
socket of the last device in the series. Please look to the bottom drawings.
