Connecting the Device

Power
Connect the device to the mains with the power plug.
Power all devices directly off a grounded switched circuit.
Do not connect the device to a rheostat or dimmer circuit, even when using the rheostat or dimmer
channel solely for 0 % to 100 % switching.

Have a qualified electrician carry out the electric connection.

DMX-512 Connection


When applicable, connect an XLR cable to the female XLR output of a controller (not incl.) and the
other side to the male XLR input of the device. Multiple devices can be linked through serial linking.
The linking cable shall be a dual core, screened cable with XLR input and output connectors.

A DMX terminator is recommended for installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance
or is in an electrically noisy environment (e.g. discos). The terminator prevents corruption of the
digital control signal by electrical noise. The DMX terminator is simply an XLR plug with a 120 Ω
resistor between pins 2 and 3, which is then plugged into the XLR output socket of the last device in
the chain.

7.2 Stand-Alone Mode
The device starts running in stand-alone mode after connection to the mains. This mode allows you to
use the device without controller.
7.3 Master/Slave Mode

The master/slave mode allows for connecting several devices to a single master device in a daisy
chain.

All slave devices will then work synchronously with the master device.

Configure all slave units before connecting the master unit to the daisy chain.

The maximum number of slave units you can connect to a master unit is 18.
