Regulate all DIP switches as shown in the figure on the
right. Now, all the luminaires will work under the controller.
Connect the controller’s output to the first luminaire’s input,
and connect the first luminaire’s output to the second
luminaire’s input. The rest may be deduced by analogy.
Eventually connect the last luminaire’s output to a DMX terminator as shown below.
