2.7 INSTALLATION
– X-SERIES DMX COLOURS
The DMX standard recommends a maximum of 32 devices to be connected in one chain. If installation
requires more lights than this, please contact OceanLED for advice.
For the X-Series installation do not extend the 3m cable length to the DMX junction box, for longer connection
use of additional DMX junction boxes will be required.
1. Connect the DMX control cable to the DMX input of the first DMX junction box. The DMX output of this box
should be connected to the input of the next, and so on up to the last junction box in the chain.
The power supply to the DMX Receiver should be fused with 500mA inline fuse (not supplied).
2. Switch on the terminator in the last DMX Junction Box.

Depending on the current rating requirements of the installation it is highly
recommended to install a suitably rated relay with remote switch to control
power (not supplied). This will reduce potential issues with voltage drops in the
system.
