WiFly EXR QA5 IP Set Up
intergrading this xture in a standard DMX chain.
“First” Power Cable – A special power “First” cable is included with
every xture. This cables is used to provide power to your xture. This
cable comes with the IP rated twist lock connector on one end and a
standard Edison 3-prong, grounded prong on the other end. Be sure to
only use this cable for power distribution and never attempt to connect
this cable to the DMX lines.
You can chain multiple xtures together through serial linking. Using
the IP rated signal cables provided through ADJ. Always be sure to
daisy-chain your in and out data connections, never split or “Y” your
DMX connections unless you are using an approved DMX splitter such
as the ADJ WiFly D6 Branch or the original D6 Branch (Both not IP
rated).
Special Note: Line Termination.
When longer runs of cable are
used, you may need to use a terminator on the last unit to avoid erratic
behavior. A terminator is a 110-120 ohm 1/4 watt resistor which is con-
nected between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector (DATA + and
DATA -). This unit is inserted in the female XLR connector of the last
unit in your daisy chain to terminate the line. Using a cable terminator
(ADJ part number Z-DMX/T) will decrease the possibilities of erratic
behavior.

Termination reduces signal errors and
avoids signal transmission problems
and interference. It is always advisable
to connect a DMX terminal, (Resistance
120 Ohm 1/4 W) between PIN 2 (DMX-)
and PIN 3 (DMX +) of the last fixture.

Some manufactures use 5-pin DMX-
512 data cables for DATA transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin DMX
xtures may be implemented in a 3-pin DMX line. When inserting stan-
dard 5-pin data cables in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used,
these adaptors are readily available at most electric stores. The chart
below details a proper cable conversion.
