Operation
Ilumiline 36 IP Optic (RGB or VW) User Manual Rev. 6 7
The Ilumiline 36
IP Optic (RGB or
VW) must be
linked using
DMX cable in a daisy
chain (serial) fashion. To
comply with the EIA-485
standard, no more than
32 products should be
connected on one daisy
chain without using a
DMX optically-isolated
splitter. Doing otherwise
may result in deterioration
of the digital DMX signal.
USITT
recommends
limiting the total
length of the DMX cable
(from the first
product/controller to the
last product) to 300 ~ 455
m (985 ~ 1,500 ft).
Disconnect the
product from the
AC power before
opening it.
DMX Linking
You may link the Ilumiline 36 IP Optic (RGB or VW) to a DMX controller using a standard
DMX serial connection. If using other DMX products compatible with the Ilumiline 36 IP Optic
(RGB or VW), you can control each individually with a single DMX controller.
If you are not familiar with the DMX standard, or if you need information about the DMX cables
needed to link the Ilumiline 36 IP Optic (RGB or VW) to a DMX controller, you may download
the DMX Primer document from the ILUMINARC® Web site at
www.iluminarc.com .

its DMX personalities. Refer to the Introduction chapter for a brief description of these
modes. Refer to the Operation chapter to learn how to configure the Ilumiline 36 IP
Optic (RGB or VW) to work in these modes. The DMX Values section will provide you
