DMX512 connection

The fixture is equipped with both 3-pin and 5-pin XLR sockets for DMX input and output. The sockets are wired in parallel.
Only use a shielded twisted-pair cable designed for RS-485 and 3-pin or 5-pin XLR-plugs and connectors in order to connect the
controller with the fixture or one fixture with anothe DMX-output
XLR mounting-sockets (rear view):
DMX Linking: To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several DMX fixtures try to use the shortest
cable path possible. The order in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the DMX addressing.
For example; a fixture assigned 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 fixture 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.
Building a serial 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: At the last fixture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120Ω resistor between Signal (－) and
Signal (＋) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last fixture.
