UHM (UNITOUR Head Module)
The UHM is used to configure, control and monitor the UNITOUR rack and also to display the
current system status and report any alarm conditions. It also acts as a control and reporting
proxy to the outside world allowing all relevant information to be reported to
LSC’s HOUSTON
X monitoring and configuration software.
The power to the UHM (Unity Head Module) is supplied from all 3 input phases via fuses
located on the rear of the rack. The UHM will continue to continue to operate with only 1 phase
present. The UHM fuse type is M205 6.3A/250VAC TYPE T (Anti-surge) 1.5kA B.C.
The
UHM’s touch screen menu system is fully described in section 3.

DMX IN, 5 pin XLR male connector.
DMX 512 is the industry standard for the transmission of digital control signals between lighting
equipment. DMX is usually “looped” from one piece of equipment to the next. The end of the
DMX line must be terminated. If the DMX line is not looped to other devices, then a DMX
termination (110 ohms) must be plugged into the DMX THRU connector.
•
DMX THRU, 5 pin XLR female connector.
It provides a loop output to feed other DMX equipment.
Hint: LSC recommends the use of RS485 data cable or shielded CAT5 cable for the DMX
connections. Audio or Microphone cables must not be used.
