3.5 DMX-512 connection
The xture is equipped with 5-pin XLR sockets for DMX input and output. Only use a shielded twisted-pair
cable designed for RS-485 and 5-pin XLR-plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller with the
xture or one xture with another.
DMX - output DMX-input
XLRsocket: XLR plug:
If you are using the standard DMX controllers, you can connect the DMX output of the controller directly with
the DMX input of the rst xture in the DMX-chain. If you wish to connect DMX-controllers with other XLR-out-
puts, you need to use adapter-cables.
Building a serial DMX-chain:
Connect the DMX-output of the rst xture in the DMX-chain with the DMX-input of the next xture. Always
connect one output with the input of the next xture until all xtures are connected. Up to 32 xtures can be
interconnected.
Caution: At the last xture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 Ω resistor
between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a 5-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last xture.
