DMX­512 connection / connection between fixtures 

 

 

 

Please note, the starting address depends upon which controller is being used. 

 
Only use a DMX cable and 3­pin XLR plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller with the fixture or 
one fixture with another. 

 

Occupation of the XLR connection: 

 

 

 

 

If you are using controllers during your show, you can connect the DMX output of the controller directly with the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

   

 

 

 

 

 

DMX input of the first fixture in the DMX chain. If you wish to connect DMX controllers with other XLR outputs,

 

   

 

 

   

 

 

   

 

   

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

you need to use adapter cables. 

 

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 needs to be terminated. Plug the terminator with a 120

resistor

   

 

 

 

 

 

 

   

 

 

 

 

 

   

 

 

between Signal (–) and Signal (+) in the DMX­output of the last fixture.
