To connect power and data:
Step 1. Connect data cable (DMX512 or Ethernet) from console to appropriate input connector at first luminaire in
chain (Figure 2-12).
Step 2. If required, connect additional data cables from appropriate thru connectors to input connectors of
remaining luminaires in chain.
Step 3. For DMX512 systems : At last luminaire in chain, install male termination connector at DMX512 THRU
connector. (Luminaires and other devices on the same DMX512 chain may not function properly without
termination.) Refer to
"DMX512 Male Termination Connector" on page 12.
Step 4. At each luminaire, connect AC Line Cord Cable Assembly from power input source.
Step 5. Dress and secure all cables so that they will not interfere with luminaire head or yoke movement.
*The Ethernet ports are not assigned as either In or Thru as the DMX512 ports are. Ethernet can be connected in any configuration.
