6 DMX Control

DMX (digital multiplex) makes it possible to dig-
itally control several DMX units via a common
control cable . For operation via a DMX light con-
troller (e . g . DMX-1440 from IMG STAGELINE)
the spotlight is provided with 7 DMX channels;
however, it can also be controlled via 4 channels .
The functions in the 4-channel mode and the
7-channel mode with the corresponding DMX
values can be found in the table on the right
(fig . 2) .
6.1 Connection
For DMX connection, 3-pole XLR connectors
are provided (pin 1 = ground, pin 2 = DMX−,
pin 3 = DMX+) . For connection, use special ca-
bles for DMX signal transmission (e . g . cables of
the CDMXN series from MONACOR) . For cable
lengths exceeding 150 m, it is generally recom-
mended to insert a DMX level matching amplifier
(e . g . SR-103DMX from IMG STAGELINE) .
1) Connect the DMX input (XLR chassis plug) of
the spotlight to the DMX output of the light
controller .
2) Connect the DMX output (XLR jack) of the
spotlight to the DMX input of the follow-
ing DMX unit; connect its output again to
the input of the following unit etc . until all
DMX-controlled units have been connected in
a chain .
3) To prevent interference in signal transmission,
in case of long cables or a multitude of units
connected in series, terminate the DMX out-
put of the last DMX unit in the chain with
a 120 Ω resistor (> 0 .3 W): Connect a corre-
sponding terminating plug (e . g . DLT-123 from
MONACOR) to the DMX output jack .

6.3 Setting the start address

For controlling the spotlight, set a DMX start
address for its first DMX channel . The following
DMX channels are automatically assigned to the
subsequent addresses .
Example: In case of start address 5 in the 7-chan-
nel mode, the channels 2 to 7 are assigned to the
addresses 6 to 11 . Thus, address 12 is the next pos-
sible free start address for the following DMX-con-
trolled unit .

UP or DOWN .
