DMX-CONNECTION
The DMX wires must not come into contact with each other, otherwise the
fixtures will not work at all, or will not work properly.
Use only a stereo shielded cable and 3-pin XLR-plugs and connectors in order to
connect the controller with the fixture or one fixture with another.
DIAGRAM OF THE XLR-CONNECTION:
If you are using the recommended controllers, you can connect the DMX-output
of the controller directly with the DMX-input of the first fixture in the DMX-chain.
If you wish to connect DMX controllers with other XLR-outputs, you need to use
adapter-cables.
BUILDING A 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:
For all installation, having long signal cables
or in the presence of electrical noise, for
example a discotheque, it is recommended
practice to use a DMX terminator: this assist
in preventing corruption of the digital
control signal by external noise. The DMX
terminator is simply an XLR connector with a
120
(Ohm) resistor connected across pins
2 and 3, which is then plugged into the OUT
DMX socket on the last projector in the
chain. The connection are illustrated on the
right.
