DMX512 control
A DMX512 data link is required in order to control the device via DMX. The device provides 3-pin XLR
connectors for DMX connection.
1 Connect the output of your DMX controller to the DMX input DMX IN of the light set with a DMX cable.
2 Connect the DMX output DMX OUT of the light set to the DMX input of the next unit in the chain. Always
connect one output to the input of the next unit until all units are connected.
3 At the last unit, the DMX cable has to be terminated. Plug the terminator with a 120 Ω resistor between
Signal (–) and Signal (+) in the DMX output of the last unit.
4 If the cable length exceeds 300 m or the number of DMX devices is greater than 32, it is recommended
to insert a DMX level amplifier to ensure proper data transmission.
XLR connection:
Wireless DMX transmission with QuickDMX
The device features an alternative DMX input for a QuickDMX receiver (sold separately). This connector
allows for wireless transmission of DMX control signals to the device. The connector is designed as a USB
port which provides the required 5 V operating voltage for the receiver. With QuickDMX devices, extensive
cabling between the DMX controller and the device is not required.
USB port connection:
OPERATION
The built-in control panel of the unit features four operating buttons and a display which shows all operation
statuses. After connecting the unit to the mains it requires a short initialization process and is then ready for
operation. The display shortly indicates the firmware version followed by the last operating mode. The light
set may be controlled via IR remote control, foot switch or a DMX controller. The operating modes can be
selected by means of the display and the control buttons.
