P18 Wash
The P18 Wash has a DMX-in and DMX-out connector. Now connect the DMX output of your
controller to the 1st P18 Wash (Controller DMX-Out -> P18 Wash DMX-In). Then the 1st P18
Wash with the 2nd P18 Wash (P18 Wash DMX-Out -> P18 Wash DMX-In) and so on. In some
cases it is advisable to insert a so-called end connector (XLR connector with a 120 Ohm
resistor between pin 2 and pin 3). Whether an end connector is required depends on various
factors, including the cable lengths used and the number of devices. However, as long as no
problems occur in the DMX line, this is not necessary.
4.4 Signal connections
The DMX cabling (signal lines) should be done with a 4-pin cable with shielding. We recommend
a DMX cable (110 Ohm, 4x0.22mm
2
), alternatively a 2-pole micro cable can be used. The plugs
and sockets are 5-pin XLR connectors, which can be purchased in specialist shops.
Pin assignment:
Pin1 = Ground/Shielding
Pin2 = DMX -
Pin3 = DMX +
Pin4 = Data out -
Pin5 = Data out +

Cable with shielding
4.4.1 DMX cabling
4.4.2 Ethernet cabling
Ethernet cabling can be done with standard network lines. The sockets on the device are Neutrik
etherCON sockets. Special cables with etherCON connectors are recommended by Neutrik. The
two sockets on the P18 Wash are connected to each other via a switch. Up to 10 devices can
be connected in series without any delay. Of course, the spotlights can also be supplied in a star
configuration via an external switch.
4.4.3 Wireless reception
The P18 Wash is equipped as standard with a LumenRadio CRMX receiver for wireless DMX.
The receiver can process both DMX and RDM. If a cable and wireless connection are connected
to the P18 Wash, the cable connection has priority! The received signal can be output via DMX
and Ethernet as of software version 1.5 (see page 16).
