Cable Connectors

 

 

 

 

Cabling must have a male XLR connector on one end and a female XLR 
connector on the other end.

 

 

 

 

 

 

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 verify correct polarity and to make sure the pins are not 
grounded or shorted to the shield or each other. 

 

 

 

Setting the Starting Address 

 

 

 

This DMX mode enables the use of a universal DMX controller device. Each fixture requires a 

start address from 1~512. A fixture requiring one or more channels for control begins to read the 

data on the channel indicated by the start address. For example, a fixture that uses six DMX 

channels, addressed to start on DMX channel 100, will read data from channels: 100, 101, 102, 

103, 104, and 105. Choose start addresses so that the channels used do not overlap, and note 

the start address selected for future reference. 

 

If this is your first time addressing a fixture using the DMX control protocol, we suggest jumping 
to the “Appendix” section and reading the heading “DMX Primer”. It contains very useful 

information that will help you understand its use.

To avoid signal transmission problems 
and interference, it is always advisable to 
connect a DMX signal terminator.
