5. DMX-512 control connection
Connect the provided XLR cable to the female 3-pin XLR output of your controller and the other
side to the male 3-pin XLR input of the moving head. You can chain multiple
Moving head together through serial linking. The cable needed should be two core, screened
cable with XLR input and output connectors. Please refer to the diagram below.
6. DMX-512 connection with DMX terminator
For installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance or is in an electrically noisy
environment, such as in a discotheque, it is recommended to use a DMX terminator. This helps in
preventing corruption of the digital control signal by electrical noise. The DMX terminator is
simply an XLR plug with a 120
Ω
resistor connected between pins 2 and 3,which is then plugged
into the output XLR socket of the last fixture in the chain. Please see illustrations below.
7. Projector DMX start address selection
All fixtures should be given a DMX starting address when using a DMX signal, so that the
correct fixture responds to the correct control signals. This digital starting address is the channel
number from which the fixture starts to “listen” to the digital control information sent out from
the DMX controller. The allocation of this starting address is achieved by setting the correct
number on the display located on the base of the device.
Address 29 Address 15 Address 1
