Connecting Power and Data
The Bad Boy Spot Luminaire may be controlled by DMX512 or Ethernet. The control inputs are located at the upper
enclosure connector panel.
Figure 2-9: Data Connections
Observe the following guidelines when setting up the system:
+
The DMX512 Thru port remains active even if the luminaire is not powered up.
+
A maximum of 32 luminaires may be connected in any one DMX512 or Ethernet data link. However, note that the
maximum limit applies to the luminaire "daisy-chain" only. Your system or console may require fewer luminaires
on a single data link path. Consult your console documentation for more information.
+
The Ethernet ports are not assigned as either In or Thru as the DMX512 ports are assigned. Ethernet can be
connected in any configuration.
+
Standard "star" topology should be used with Ethernet configurations. DO NOT create a "ring" with Ethernet.
CAUTION:
The Ethernet ports are connected to an internal switch. If power is disconnected to the luminaire,
the switch will go off, therefore cutting communication to downstream luminaires.
Power is provided by the AC Line Cord Cable Assembly (25.9812.0902.5) connected to the Neutrik® power input
connector. There is no power on/off switch.
Note: Refer to
on page 26 for more details about the Comm LED.
