DMX512 Male Termination Connector
A male XLR DMX512 termination connector is required at the last
luminaire (or "far end of the line") to prevent signal reflections. Signal
reflections may cancel out the signal at certain line lengths, resulting in
errors. The terminator is also necessary for software downloads and
running tests on multiple luminaires.
To construct your own connector,
you will need the following components:
•
5-pin, male XLR connector.
• 120 ohm resistor.
Note: A male termination connector is also available as an accessory from PRG. See "Replacement
Items and Accessories" on page 7.
Ethernet Cables
The Bad Boy Luminaire is equipped with two RJ-45 type connectors for Ethernet input/output.
Ethernet cabling should follow these guidelines:
•
Ethernet cable assemblies must match the CAT5e specification.
• Regular or crossover cables are acceptable.
• Both EtherCon® and RJ-45 connectors are acceptable.
