3. Connecting to the DMX512 Network
Basic DMX512 installation consists of connecting multiple SL NITRO 510 LED STROBE Luminaires together (up
to 32 luminaires) in "daisy-chain" fashion. A cable runs from the control console (or DMX512 control source) to the
DMX connector on the first SL NITRO 510 LED STROBE Luminaire. Another cable runs from the other DMX
connector on the first unit to a DMX connector on the next SL NITRO 510 LED STROBE Luminaire (or DMX512
device to be controlled).
