RUSH Multibeam 2 User Manual 

Control data link 

A DMX 512 data link is required in order to control the fixture via DMX. The 
fixture has 3-pin and 5-pin XLR connectors for DMX data input and output.  

 

The number of daisy-chained fixtures is limited by the number of DMX 
channels required by the fixtures in relation to the maximum 512 channels 
available in one DMX universe. Note that if independent control of a fixture is 
required, it must have its own DMX channels. Fixtures that are required to 
behave identically can share the same DMX address and channels. To add 
more fixtures or groups of fixtures when the above limit is reached, add a DMX 
universe and another daisy-chained link. 

Tips for reliable data transmission 

Use shielded twisted-pair cable designed for RS-485 devices: standard 
microphone cable cannot transmit control data reliably over long runs. 24 
AWG cable is suitable for runs up to 300 meters (1000 ft.). Heavier gauge 
cable and/or an amplifier is recommended for longer runs. The pin-out on all 
connectors is pin 1 = shield, pin 2 = cold (-), and pin 3 = hot (+). Pins 4 and 5 
in the 5-pin XLR connectors are not used in the fixture but are available for 
possible additional data signals as required by the DMX512-A standard. 
Standard pin-out is pin 4 = data 2 cold (-) and pin 5 = data 2 hot (+). 

To split the link into branches, use a splitter such as the Martin 4-Channel 
Opto-Isolated RS-485 Splitter/Amplifier. Terminate the link by installing a DMX 
termination plug in the output socket of the last fixture. The termination plug, 
which is a male XLR plug with a 120 Ohm, 0.25 W resistor soldered between 
pins 2 and 3, “soaks up” the control signal so it does not reflect and cause 
interference. If a splitter is used, terminate each branch of the link. 

Connecting the DMX data link 

To connect the fixture to data: 
1.  Connect the DMX data output from the controller to the first fixture’s male 

XLR DMX input connector.
