The fixture is equipped with both 3-pin and 5-pin XLR sockets for DMX input and output.
The sockets are wired in parallel.
Only use a shielded twisted-pair cable designed for RS-485 and 3-pin or 5-pin XLR-plugs
and connectors in order to connect the controller with the fixture or one fixture with anothe

INKING
To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several DMX fixtures try to use the
shortest cable path possible. The order in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does
not influence the DMX addressing.
For example: a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in a DMX line,
at the beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle. When a fixture is assigned a DMX
address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to address 1 to that unit, no
matter where it is located in the DMX chain.

UILDING A SERIAL
DMX-
CHAIN
Connect the DMX-output of the first fixture in the DMX-chain with the DMX-input of the next
fixture. Always connect one output with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are
connected.
Caution: At the last fixture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a
120
Ω
resistor between Signal (
－
) and Signal (
＋
) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the
DMX-output of the last fixture.
