DMX connector configuration
Termination reduces signal errors. To avoid signal transmission problems and interference, it is always advisable to connect a
DMX signal terminator.
CAUTION
Do not allow contact between the common and the fixture’s chassis ground. Grounding the common can cause a ground
loop, and your fixture may perform erratically. Test cables with an ohm meter to check correct polarity and to make sure the
pins are not grounded or shorted to the shield or each other.
Setting up a DMX Serial Data Link
1. Connect the (male) 3 pin connector side of the DMX cable to the output (female) 3 pin connector of the controller.
2. Connect the end of the cable coming from the controller which will have a (female) 3 pin connector to the input
connector of the next fixture consisting of a (male) 3 pin connector.
3. Then, proceed to connect from the output as stated above to the input of the following fixture and so on.
DMX address setting
Each fixture must have a specific starting address. When receiving signal transmission, every fixture will receive channels
control signals for its own starting address.
The user can set several fixtures to the same address or set up a separate address for every device.
If more than one fixture is set to the same address, all of them receive the same DMX channels signals. All connected fixtures
are jointly controlled; the controller can't control a device separately.
If every device is set to a different address, it will receive different DMX signals corresponding to its starting address.
