5.2 Interconnection of several
PARL-14DMX units
Several PARL-14DMX units may be interconnected
(master-slave operation). Then all slave units can
be controlled in sync with the master unit.
1) Connect the DMX output (13) of the master unit
via a 3-pole XLR cable (e. g. series MEC-... or
10
and , the colours are auto-
with the button UP or
with the button UP or
MECN-... from the product range of MONA-
COR) to the DMX input (12) of the first slave
unit.
2) Connect the DMX output of the first slave unit to
the DMX input of the second slave unit, etc. until
all units have been connected in a chain.
3) No DMX signal must be present at the DMX
input of the master unit. Adjust the slave units to
the DMX address 001 (
Once the control signals from the master unit are
present at the slave units, they are controlled by the
master unit and the flashes fast on the display (5).
If a slave unit does not receive any control signals,
the indication appears on its display.

5.3 Operation via a light controller

For operation via a light controller with DMX512
protocol (e. g. DMX-1440 or DMX-510USB by "img
Stage Line"), the PARL-14DMX is equipped with
five DMX control channels. The functions of the
channels and the DMX values can be found in
chapter 7.1.

5.3.1 DMX connection

For the DMX connection, the unit is provided with
3-pole XLR jacks of the following pin configuration:
Pin 1 = ground, 2 = DMX-, 3 = DMX+
For connection, special cables for high data flow
should be used. Standard microphone cables with
screening and a minimum cross section of 2 ×
0.22 mm 2 and with a capacity as low as possible
can only be recommended for a total cable length
of up to 100 m. For cable lengths exceeding 150 m
it is recommended to insert a DMX level matching
amplifier (e. g. SR-103DMX by "img Stage Line").
1) Connect the DMX input (12) to the DMX output
of the light controller.
2) Connect the DMX output (13) to the DMX input
of the following light effect unit. Connect its out-
put again to the input of the following unit, etc.
until all light effect units have been connected in
a chain.
3) To prevent interference in signal transmission,
for long cables or a great number of units con-
nected in series, terminate the DMX output of
the last DMX unit in the chain with a 120 Ω resis-
tor (> 0.3 W): Connect a corresponding termi-
nating plug (e. g. DLT-123 by "img Stage Line")
to the output jack.
