PERMANENTLY CONNECTING POWER & DATA
Figure 18: Connecting DMX and AC Power in G-7 BeaSt POI
DMX-in and DMX-out are in the same cable. See more in figure about the SGM POI DMX cable.
For permanent installations, have a qualified electrician to wire the mains cable directly to a suitable branch circuit.
The junction’s ingress protection (IP) rating must be suitable for the location.
For a temporary installation, the mains cable may be fitted with a grounded connector intended for exterior use.
PLEASE NOTE!
• Cat5e compliant cable is suitable for the transmission of DMX 512 with RDM.
• Up to 32 fixtures can be connected to the same DMX link. Additional fixtures will overload the link.
• The last fixture must always be fitted with a DMX termination plug to the fixture’s DMX out.
• SGM fixtures provide a passive DMX Thru signal as DMX out, instead of an active output signal.
