DMX CONTROL
Making the connections
A DMX512 data link is required in order to control the device via DMX. The device provides 3-pin XLR connectors
for DMX connection.
•
Connect the output of your DMX controller to the DMX IN jack of the machine with a DMX cable.
•
Connect the DMX OUT jack of the machine 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.
•
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.
•
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.
Occupation of the XLR connection:
Adjusting the DMX start address
The fog machine reserves one control channel on the DMX controller. To ensure that the
control signals are properly directed to the machine, it must be adjusted to the DMX start
address provided for it on the DMX controller. The address is adjusted via the
DIP
switches
(5) as a binary number. The address will result when adding the place values of
the DIP switches set to “
ON
“.
Note
•
Please make sure that you do not have any overlapping channels in order to control each device correctly and
independently from any other fixture on the DMX data link. If two, three or more devices are addressed similarly,
they will work similarly.
