WARNING:
Risk of electrical shock. Make sure that the branch circuit is disconnected
prior to installation or inspection.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the cable is protected from cuts and abrasions that may result
in damage to the outer jacket.
CAUTION:
IP failure induced by stressed/damaged cable entry points during or after
installation will void the product warranty.
NOTICE:
A voltage divider is recommended (and may be required by local electrical code)
when a single junction box is utilized for termination of the power supply and data cables.
NOTICE:
Cable bend radius must NOT be less than the
Minimum Bending Radius (4X Cable Diameter) as specified
by cable manufacturer and the Non-Bendable Length of
5cm (2in) near the cable gland MUST be adhered to. In
addition to the Minimum Bending Radius, ensure that 5cm
(2in) of cable at the connector junction is kept straight (see
image at right).
Note:
Wire nuts are not permissible for use with data connections and will void warranty.
Terminating Resistor
For use in terminating the DMX512 data line at the last luminaire. See section 2.6 of the
install guide for additional information on usage.
Installed data cabling shall conform to the requirements outlined in ANSI E1.11
Entertainment Technology – USITT DMX512-A, Asynchronous Serial Digital Data
Transmission Standard for Controlling Lighting Equipment and Accessories. All cabling
shall utilize stranded conductors. Solid core conductors shall not be used.
A maximum of 32 ProPoint luminaires may be connected to a DMX data line. The
maximum overall data line length (from DMX controller to the last unit in the daisy chain)
is 300m (984ft).
Termination Kit
A ProPoint termination kit (part number AM243520054) may be ordered separately.
This kit contains the following components:
(6) Splicing wire connectors: For use in connecting data cable conductors.
See section 2.6 of the install guide for additional information on usage.
WARNING:
Risk of electrical shock. Ensure that branch circuit power is disconnected
prior to performing installation or inspection of data wiring.
NOTICE:
A voltage divider is recommended (and may be required by local electrical
code) when a single junction box is utilized for both power supply and data cable
termination.
WARNING:
Risk of electrical shock. Ensure that branch circuit power is disconnected
prior to performing installation or inspection of data wiring.
NOTICE:
A voltage divider is recommended (and may be required by local electrical
code) when a single junction box is utilized for both power supply and data cable
termination.
Note:
• Maintain data pair wire twist at all connection points.
• To prevent short circuits, do not strip more conductor insulation than required for
connection.
• The use of wire nuts is not acceptable and will void the warranty.
• Data termination shall be made in weatherproof enclosure by others. Use suitable
cable glands and apply RTV sealant at all entry points.
NOTICE:
Termination is required for proper operation and shall be made at the last
unit of the daisy chain only. Failure to install termination correctly will void the warranty.
Note:
• Maintain data pair wire twist at all connection points.
• To prevent short circuits, do not strip more conductor insulation than required for
connection.
• The use of wire nuts is not acceptable and will void the warranty.
• Data connections shall be made in weatherproof enclosure by others. Use suitable
cable glands and apply RTV sealant at all entry points.
NOTICE:
DMX data must enter each fixtur
e using the DMX In wire pair (Black and
Red conductors) and exit each fixtur
e using the DMX Out wire pair (Black and White
conductors). Do not connect data wiring in a star or tap configuration. Doing so will
void the warranty and may result in control issues.
