Use a shielded twisted-pair cable with two pairs to connect the serial link. Connect all pins
if you want to upgrade the software in crossload. If a microphone cable (or any other cable
with only one pair) is used the software can not be updated via DMX line because pin 4
and 5 are not connected.
Pin assignment
Pin 1 = shield
Pin 2 = data -
Pin 3 = data +
Pin 4 = data out -
Pin 5 = data out +

The
A12
has
3pin
and
5pin
XLR
connectors
for
DMX-in
and
DMX-out.
Do
not
connect
more
