DMX SETUP
DMX-512:
Digital Multiplex, or DMX, serves as a universal protocol utilized by most lighting and controller manufacturers
for communication between intelligent xtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions
from the controller to the xture. DMX data is transmitted as serial data, traveling from xture to xture
through the DATA ‘IN’ and DATA ‘OUT’ XLR terminals found on all DMX xtures. Most controllers only have
a DATA ‘OUT’ terminal.
DMX LINKING:
As a language, DMX enables all makes and models from different manufacturers to be connected and
operated from a single controller, provided that all xtures and the controller are DMX compliant. To ensure
proper DMX data transmission when using multiple DMX xtures, use the shortest cable path possible. The
order in which xtures are connected in a DMX line does not affect the DMX addressing. For example, a
xture assigned a DMX address of 1 can be placed anywhere in a DMX line—at the beginning, at the end, or
anywhere in the middle. Therefore, the rst xture controlled by the controller could be the last xture in the
chain. When a xture is assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send data assigned to
address 1 to that unit, regardless of its position in the DMX chain.
DATA CABLE (DMX CABLE) REQUIREMENTS:
The Net 4 can be controlled via the DMX-512 protocol. The DMX address is
electronically set using the controls on the front panel of the unit. Both the
unit and the DMX controller require an approved DMX-512 110 Ohm Data
cable for data input and output. Accu-Cable DMX cables are recommended.
If you are making your own cables, ensure that you use standard 110-120
Ohm shielded cable (which can be purchased at most professional sound
and lighting stores). Cables should be made with a male and female XLR
connector on either end of the cable. Additionally, keep in mind that DMX
cable must be daisy-chained and cannot be split.
LINE TERMINATION:
When using longer runs of cable, one may need to use a terminator on the last unit to avoid erratic behavior. A
terminator is a 110-120 ohm 1/4-watt resistor, which connects between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector
(DATA + and DATA -). Insert this unit into the female XLR connector of the last unit in your daisy chain to
terminate the line. Using a cable terminator (ADJ part number Z-DMX/T) will decrease the possibilities of
erratic behavior.
A DMX512 terminator reduces signal errors,
avoiding most signal reection interference.
Connect PIN 2 (DMX-) and PIN 3 (DMX+) of
the last xture in series with a 120 Ohm, 1/4 W
Resistor to terminate the DMX512.
