Setting the DMX address:

The DMX mode enables the use of a universal DMX controller. Each xture requires a “start address”

from 1- 512. A xture requiring one or more channels for control begins to read the data on the channel

indicated by the start address. For example, a xture that occupies or uses 7 channels of DMX and was

addressed to start on DMX channel 100, would read data from channels: 100,101,102,103,104,105

and 106. Choose a start address so that the channels used do not overlap. E.g. the next unit in the

chain starts at 107.

DMX 512:

DMX (Digital Multiplex) is a universal protocol used as a form of communication between intelligent

xtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions form the controller to the xture.

DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from xture to xture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT”

XLR terminals located on all DMX xtures (most controllers only have a data “out” terminal).

DMX linking:

DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of different manufactures to be linked together

and operate from a single controller, as long as all xtures and the controller are DMX compliant.

To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several DMX xtures try to use the shortest

cable path possible. The order in which xtures are connected in a DMX line does not inuence the

DMX addressing. For example; a xture assigned to a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in

a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle. When a xture is assigned a

DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to address 1 to that unit,

no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.

DATA cable (DMX cable) requirements (for DMX operation):

This xture can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The DMX address is set on the back of the unit.

Your unit and your DMX controller require a standard 3-pin XLR connector for data input/output,

see image below.

Also remember that DMX cable must be daisy chained and cannot be split.

DMX setup

Further DMX cables can be

purchased from all good sound

and lighting suppliers or

Pro Light Concepts dealers.

Notice:

Be sure to follow the diagrams below when making your own cables. Do not connect the cables

shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLRs

outer casing. Grounding the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behaviour.

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 behaviour.

Using a cable terminator will decrease

the possibilities of erratic behaviour.

(3-pin - Order ref: CABL90, 5-pin - Order ref: CABL89)

5-pin XLR DMX connectors:

Some manufactures use 5-pin XLR connectors for data transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin XLR xtures

may be implemented in a 3-pin XLR DMX line. When inserting standard 5-pin XLR connectors in to a

3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used. The diagram below details the correct cable conversion.

Termination reduces 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 xture.
