4 Installation
Unpack and check carefully there is no transportation damage before using the unit.
Keep the equipment packaging. To fully protect the product against vibration, dust
and moisture during transportation or storage use the original packaging or your
own packaging material suitable for transport or storage, respectively.
Create all connections while the device is o. Use the shortest possible high-quality
cables for all connections. Take care when running the cables to prevent tripping
hazards.
The device is designed for mounting in 19" racks, it occupies six rack units (RU).
Connect the DMX output of the device (C) to the DMX input of the rst DMX device
(1). Connect the output of the rst DMX device to the input of the second one, and so
on to form a daisy chain. Always ensure that the output of the last DMX device in the
daisy chain is terminated with a resistor (110 Ω, ¼ W).
Two female 3-pin XLR sockets are used for the DMX output. The following gure and
the table show the sockets’ pin assignment.
1 Ground
2 DMX data (–)
3 DMX data (+)
A separate control channel is provided for each function of a DMX device (e.g. colour,
brightness, ash interval etc.). The control channels can be assigned to a block of
channel faders on the lights control panel. If, for example, the 10 channels of a device
are to be assigned to the channel faders CH1 - CH10 of the lighting control panel, you
must set the DMX address 1 on the device to be controlled. The next channel fader
CH11 of the lights control panel should then control the function of the rst control
channel of another device in the DMX chain. At this device you then set the DMX
address 11. Continue with other devices accordingly.
