Description

The ODMX-512 Interface Control provides an 
interface between a DMX512/1990 compatible stage 
lighting console (provided by others) and a Lutron 
lighting control system. The ODMX-512 will read up 
to 32 consecutive DMX512 channel levels (select-
able by DIP switches). The ODMX-512 also contains 
terminals that allow an external switch to be used as 
an input to the lighting control system.

Important Notes:

1.

  Read all instructions carefully before starting 

installation.

2.

  Install in accordance with all national and local 

electrical codes.

3.

  Turn power 

OFF

 at the control panel 

BEFORE

 

installing controls. 

DO NOT

 connect high-voltage 

power to low-voltage terminals. Improper wiring 
can result in personal injury or damage to the 
control and other equipment.

4.

  Check with your local electrical inspector for 

compliance with local codes and wiring practices.

Installation

1.

  

Prewiring:

 The Control Links require special wiring 

considerations. Refer to your lighting control system 
Installation Guide and/or Lutron job drawings for wir-
ing restrictions that may apply to your specifi c project.

2.

 Turn power OFF to the lighting control system.

    

 

!

WARNING: Shock Hazard. Always turn off the 

power to the control panel before doing any work. 
Failure to do so can result in death or serious 
personal injury and/or damage to the equipment.

3.

  Mount the ODMX-512 Interface to a junction box or to 

a wall as shown. If the unit is not mounted to a metal 
junction box, ensure proper grounding of the metal 
casing by connecting a ground wire to the ground 
screw. Unscrew and remove the front enclosure cover 
to expose the terminal blocks, DIP Switch, and Output 
Status LEDs. Insert wires through side knockouts only.

4.  Assign Addresses: 

Address all controls on the 

Control Link. Refer to Lutron job drawings for any 
preassigned job-specifi c address for each control. 
Each Control Link can support up to 32 devices. For 
proper system operation, each control on a link must 
have a unique address. Set DIP Switch SW1, switches 
1-5 on each control to select the Link Address (see 

Control Link Address Settings

 on back of sheet). 

Record assignments for future reference.

5.

  

Assign DMX 512 channels to read: 

Using the unit 

label as a guide, set DIP Switch (SW2 DMX Zone 
Select) on the unit to the desired group of 32 DMX512 
channels to read.

6.

  Strip insulation from wires so 3/8 in. (9.5 mm) of bare 

wire is exposed (terminals will accept up to two 
#18 AWG (1.0 mm

2

) wires). If using larger wire, splice 

an #18 AWG (1.0 mm

2

) to the larger wire to make the 

connection.

7.

  Connect Control Link wiring as shown in 

Typical Control 

Link Wiring Diagram

. Confi rm all connections.

8.

  Connect external equipment to the DMX512 Input 

terminals as shown in the 

Typical Interface Wiring 

Diagram

.

9.

  Replace front enclosure cover. Restore power to the 

control panel 

AFTER

 

the installation of the system is 

complete.
