cable should originate at the controller to the first
receiving device and then to others in a continuous
"daisy chain" fashion. An optically isolated DMX splitter
is recommend when installing the FXLE30C4N in a
system with various other DMX devices.
The FXLE30C4N has a DMX IN and a DMX OUT
connector which are used to connect the DMX data
chain. The control cable can NOT be split into a Y or
multiple run/star arrangement with a cable running
directly from the controller to each receiving device.
DMX CONNECTOR PIN ASSIGNMENTS
Predominantly two connectors are used for connecting
fixtures and other DMX devices to a DMX control
chain. They are both
“XLR type” connectors. Some
units use 3 pin connectors, others use 5 pin
connectors. The FXLE30C4N
receives a DMX signal
on the 3 pin MALE connector on the rear of the unit.
The 3 pin FEMALE connector is used to connect to the
next DMX device on the control chain.
If your console uses a 5 pin XLR connector, an adapter
cable can be purchased or fabricated to accommodate
this conversion. The following table shows the pin
assignments for both 3 pin and 5 pin XLR
connectors:
DMX TERMINATION
It is recommended that a DMX data chain be
terminated at the last receiving device on the chain.
This is done by installing a commonly available 1/4
Watt, 120 Ohm resistor across the DATA - and DATA
+ wires at the last device. If you have only a few
fixtures installed very close together and with a short
run of DMX cable to the controller then you may be
able to operate without the terminator.
OPERATION
Power is applied once the power cord is connected to
a live power source. There is not an on/off switch.
Connect power cord to fixture first, then outlet. A
display and user interface is located on the back of the
unit. This interface is used to set the operating options
and settings. It consists of a backlit LCD display and
four buttons (MODE, DOWN, UP and ENTER)
.
Use MODE to scroll through the available choices.
The current setting for the option will be shown. Use
UP and DOWN until you reach the desired setting or
mode then push ENTER to lock in the new setting.
In case of loss of power to fixture, the fixture will return
to the last setting that was locked in with ENTER being
pressed.
