DMX TERMINATOR
In the Controller mode or Master/Slave mode, the DMX output has to be connected with a DMX
terminator at the last fixture in the chain. This prevents electrical noise from disturbing and
corrupting the DMX control signals.
The DMX terminator is simply an XLR connector with a 120 (ohm) resistor connected across
pins 2 and 3, which is then plugged into the output socket on the last projector in the chain. The
connections are illustrated below.
Many luminaires can run synchronously by linking them with each other in the master/slave mode.
Select one luminaire as the master, and regulate the DIP switches as shown in the figure below.
Regard the other luminaires as the slaves, and regulate their DIP switches as shown in the figure
below.
Connect the master’s output to the first slave’s input with an XLR-XLR control cable, and connect
the first slave’s output to the second slave’s input with an XLR-XLR control cable. The rest may
be deduced by analogy. Eventually connect the last slave’s output to a DMX terminator as shown
below.
In master/slave mode, you should only regulate the value of the tens and units of the rotary DIP
switches of the master, and then press the RESET button. After 30 seconds, all the luminaires
will run automatically and follow whichever one of the 15 automatical programs which has been
selected. (How to set the rotary DIP switches, please refer to “auto programmes table” above.)
You can easily differ from the master and the slaves. The master only has an XLR cable and it’s
status LED is off, but the slaves’ status LEDs are constantly on.
