P18
The P18 has a DMX-in and DMX-out connector. Now connect the DMX output of your controller
to the 1st P18 (Controller DMX-Out -> P18 DMX-In). Then the 1st P18 with the 2nd P18
(P18 DMX-Out -> P18 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 +

4.5 Mounting the devices
WARNING: Allow a distance of at least 0.5 metres from easily flammable material.
!
The P18 can either be placed on the floor or suspended from a beam
system in any position. If you place the device on the ground, only
operate the device on a hard surface, as the air inlets in the#foot must
remain free! To hang the device on a beam system, use the original
JB-Lighting Omega-Clamps with Camloc connectors. Ensure that
the Camlocs engage securely.
Ensure that the beam structure to which you are mounting the device
complies with the safety regulations. When mounting onto a beam,
the spotlight must always be secured using a safety device that
complies with national regulations.
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 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 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, the cable connection has priority! The received signal can be output via DMX and
Ethernet.
