DMX Linking
If you are using the Followspot 1200 with a DMX controller, you can link them using a
regular DMX serial connection. Be aware that the Followspot 1200 uses 5-pin XLR
connectors and that you will need a 5-pin to 3-pin adapter in most cases.
If you are not familiar with the DMX standard, please refer to the
DMX Primer
and
DMX
Connectivity
sections in the
Appendix
chapter of this manual.
The Followspot 1200 does not support the Master/Slave mode.
DMX Connection
The Followspot 1200 uses the regular DMX data connection for its only 6-channel DMX
mode. Refer to the
Introduction
chapter for a brief description of this mode and the
Operation
chapter to learn how to configure the Followspot 1200 to work in this mode.
The diagram below shows the Followspot 1200 DMX connectors.

Pins 4 and 5 of the External Console Only socket carry power for the external
console. Therefore, DO NOT connect the DMX cable to this socket. Otherwise,
you could damage the DMX controller or the fixtures connected to the DMX link.
1) Connect the DMX cable that comes from the DMX controller or from the other DMX
fixtures to the DMX Input socket.
2) Connect the DMX cable that goes to the other DMX fixtures to the DMX Output
socket.
When using the Followspot 1200’s external console, DO NOT connect the
Followspot 1200 to the DMX link.
The diagram below illustrates a typical DMX link connection.
