             DMX Control

Operating the F8-200 LED Fresnel from a DMX controller gives users the 
option to create unique lighting looks. The F8 has a single 5-pin DMX Breakout 
connector on the rear of the light to link DMX connections between lights 
when used in a DMX chain. The use of a DMX Interface Box (P/N 26-02019) is 
necessary to integrate the F8-200 into DMX chain installations by providing 
connections for looping through both DMX IN and DMX OUT data.

The F8 DMX Interface Box plugs directly into the 5-pin DMX Breakout 
connector built in to the rear of the F8-200. If the F8-200 will be the last light 
in your DMX chain, you may plug a 5-pin XLR DMX cable directly into the 5-pin 
DMX Breakout Jack. The F8 is a self-terminating device and the use of a DMX 
terminator or Zylight DMX interface box will not be necessary when the F8 is 
the last light in your DMX chain, or if you are running separate lines to each of 
your fixtures.

When connecting from fixture to fixture, use of the DMX Interface Box is 
necessary for correct DMX connections. Not following these steps for DMX 
connection can result in erratic behavior. The DMX Interface Box mounts to 
the bottom of either side of the F8 yoke. (see image below)
