Spectral M950 SW 

Fixture Linking 

You will need a serial data link to run light shows of one or more fixtures using a DMX-512 controller or to 

run synchronized shows of two or more fixtures set to a master/slave operating mode. The combined 

number of channels required by all the fixtures on a serial data link determines the number of fixtures the 

data link can support.  

 

Important:  Fixtures on a serial data link must be daisy-chained in a single line. To comply with the  

EIA-485 standard, no more than 30 devices should be connected on one data link. 

Connecting more than 30 fixtures on one serial data link without the use of a DMX optically 

isolated splitter may result in deterioration of the digital DMX signal. 

 

Maximum recommended DMX data link distance: 100 meters 

Maximum recommended number of fixtures on a DMX data link: 30 fixtures 

 

 

Data Cabling 

To link fixtures together, you must obtain data cables. You can purchase DAP Audio certified DMX cables 

directly from a dealer/distributor or construct your own cable. If you choose to create your own cable, 

please use data-grade cables that can carry a high quality signal and are less prone to electromagnetic 

interference.
