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 LED lighting. You can chain
multiple LED lighting 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.
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.
