DD-3-4U RJ45  DMX Splitter
Safety instructions
Intended use
This device is used to distribute DMX signals. Any other use or use un-
der other operating conditions is considered to be improper and may 
result in personal injury or property damage. No liability will be as-
sumed for damages resulting from improper use.
Dangers for children
Ensure that plastic bags, packaging, etc. are disposed of properly and are not 
within reach of babies and young children. Choking hazard! Ensure that children 
do not detach any small parts (e.g. knobs or the like) from the unit. They could 
swallow the pieces and choke! Never let children unattended use electrical de-
vices.
Operating conditions
This device has been designed for indoor use only. To prevent damage, never 
expose the device to any liquid or moisture. Avoid direct sunlight, heavy dirt, 
and strong vibrations.
Risk of re if the maximum current is exceeded
The device can power other devices via a lockable Power Twist output socket.  
The current consumption of all serially connected other devices must not ex-
ceed 10A, otherwise you risk injuries and irreparable damages of the device.
Connect just so many devices to the output socket that the maximum current 
consumption is not exceeded.
Ensure the correct dimensioning (wire cross section) of the used power cords of 
all serially connected devices.
Electric shock caused by high voltages inside
Within the device there are areas where high voltages may be present. Never 
remove any covers. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
Electric shock caused by short-circuit
Always use proper ready-made insulated mains cabling (power cord) with a 
protective contact plug. Do not modify the mains cable or the plug. Failure to 
do so could result in electric shock/death or re. If in doubt, seek advice from a 
registered electrician.
Power supply
Before connecting the device, ensure that the input voltage (AC outlet) matches 
the voltage rating of the device and that the AC outlet is protected by a residual 
current circuit breaker. Failure to do so could result in damage to the device and 
possibly injure the user.
Unplug the device before electrical storms occur and when it is unused for long 
periods of time to reduce the risk of electric shock or re.
Handling the power cord
Do not place the device or speaker boxes or similar on the power cord and be 
careful not to pinch it. Never tie a knot in the power cord or tie it with other 
cables. Route the power cord so that no one steps on or trips over it. A damaged 
power cord can cause a re or electric shock. Replace any broken cables.
Protecting the environment
For the transport and protective packaging, environmentally friendly 
materials have been chosen that can be supplied to normal recycling. 
Ensure that plastic bags, packaging, etc. are properly disposed of. Do not 
just dispose of these materials with your normal household waste, but 
make sure that they are collected for recycling. Please follow the notes 
and markings on the packaging.
This product is subject to the European Waste Electrical and Electronic 
Equipment Directive (WEEE) in its currently valid version. Do not dispose 
of your old device with your normal household waste. Dispose of this 
product through an approved waste disposal rm or through your local 
waste facility. Comply with the rules and regulations that apply in your 
country. If in doubt, consult your local waste disposal facility.
Features
  1-in-3 DMX splitter for four DMX universes
  Powerful DMX splitter for stages and xed installations
  For use with Stairville RJ45 Rack Split, DMX Split Box 
and DMX Shuttle Snake
  The optional split boxes combine four DMX lines on 
one CAT5 cable
  The DD-3-4U processes the signal from all four 
universes independently of each other and outputs it 
amplied to the three RJ45 outputs
  This way, all four DMX lines can be played at three 
locations on the stage or in the rig
  Again, one of the Stairville DMX split boxes is used
  LEDs show the DMX signal present for each DMX line
  Power LED
  Flexible use thanks to mounting thread (M10) and the 
supplied rack kit (19"/1RU)
  Two devices can be connected and installed on one 
rack unit (no additional parts required)
  Connections: Power in and output: Power Twist
  DMX in and output:  RJ45, lockable
  Supply voltage:  230V~50Hz
  Fuse:  250V 1A fast-acting
  Dimensions W×H×D:  170×44×170 mm 
  (without rack kit)
