Front panel connections
The front panel of the APC Hub includes three LED indicators:
1. Power - this LED is lighted if the internal power supply is working properly.
2. Signal - This LED is lighted if an external DMX controller is connected to the
Hub and is sending valid DMX data.
3. Ch1 - Levels on DMX channel 1 are shown by the brightness of this LED. This
provides a handy basic system test.
Instructions for using the APC Hub
Setting up the APC Hub is very simple.
1. Connect the Hub to a power source using the supplied power cable. Verify
that the Power LED is lighted.
2. Plug in the DMX cable from the control console to the DMX Input connector. If
the permanent system will not include a controller, one must still be used for
initial programming.
3. Plug in the DMX cable to the dimmers or fixtures.
4. With the panels still unplugged, verify that the DMX controller is properly
addressing the fixtures in the system.
5. Check the Ch1 LED indicator to see that it reflects the level on DMX channel 1.
6. Power off the Hub.
7. Plug in the RJ45 connector and CAT5 cable from the panel system.
