4. DMX 512 Connection
• DMX512 cable must use the professional shielded twisted pair cable. The standard loudspeaker cable
is not reliable for controling the long-range data. A 24AWG cable is suitable for more than 300 meters
long-distance signal transmission and must add the DMX 512 signal amplifier.
• Do not use two outputs to separate the connection. if separate, a DMX512 splitter is necessary.
• If using the DMX512 splitter, first connect the DMX512 Splitter input terminal to controller and then
connect from the splitter output terminal to next device.
• Do as above to connect other devices, and finally coupled with a 120 Ω loop resistance terminal
insertion.
Attention!
In order to fix the device securely, use 2 omega holders and 4 quick lock fasteners
correctly into the quick lock hole turned 90 clockwise is necessary. Adding a safety
chain to the base hole not the handle is extra and necessary safety method .

DMX-512 loop resistance terminal
If the DMX line is too long or placed in some noisy electric signals places like disco ,nightclub ,ballroom
etc, using DMX loop resistance terminal is necessary. Welding a 120Ω resistor terminal between the pin 2
and pin 3 as below and plug it into the last light XLR output terminal .
