DATA CONNECTION
Depending on the length of the DMX cable run, or other factors, it may be advisable to install a
terminator at the last fixture in the run.
The illustration below shows the correct placement of a 120Ω 0.25W resistor in a terminator, as
well as the standard DMX signal pin-outs.

Relation between DMX and Address
Follow above method for subsequent fixtures, calculating starting addressed as indicated.
EXAMPLE OF DMX ADDRESSING
The below table shows an example of starting addresses for four fixtures assuming a first fixt-
ure with starting address of 001.
The actual starting addresses will be determined by the operator as needed to match external
controller settings.
