FINDING THE MOUNTING LOCATION
When choosing a mounting location for the OceanDMX Controller the following
recommendations need to be followed:
1. Consider the wiring routing / connections:
• The unit requires a 12 / 24 V DC power source
• The distance to the first DMX device / DMX Junction Box (i.e. check length of DMX
cable)
2. Select flat surface in a dry location away from sources of heat.
3. The unit should be mounted as high as possible in the vessel, and away from
metal objects to ensure good WiFi coverage. Avoid areas surrounded by metallic
insulation or coverings as this may interfere or restrict the WiFi signal.
4. To improve the responsiveness of the movement function the unit should be firmly
mounted to a solid surface directly connected to the vessels structure. (i.e not
mounted to a structure that will move or vibrate)

Mounted away from the rotational centre of the vessel – e.g. mount to one side of
the vessel, and either towards the bow or stern of the vessel. (This maximises the
accelerations the unit can detect due to wave motion).
