Data Linking
You will need a serial data link to run light shows of one or more fixtures using a DMX-512 controller
or to run synchronized shows on two or more fixtures set to a master/slave operating mode. The
combined number of channels required by all the fixtures on a serial data link determines the number
of fixtures the data link can support.
This fixture uses 9 channels of DMX control.
Important: Fixtures on a serial data link must be daisy chained in one single line. To comply with the EIA-485
standard no more than 32 devices should be connected on one data link. Connecting more than 32
fixtures on one serial data link without the use of a DMX optically-isolated splitter may result in
deterioration of the digital DMX signal.
Maximum recommended serial data link distance: 500 meters (1,640 ft.)
Maximum recommended number of fixtures on a serial data link: 32 fixtures
DMX Linking
1. Connect the (male) 3-pin connector side of the DMX cable to the output (female) 3-pin connector
of the first fixture.
2. Connect the end of the cable coming from the first fixture which will have a (female) 3-pin
connector to the input connector of the next fixture consisting of a (male) 3-pin connector. Then,
proceed to connect from the output as stated above to the input of the following fixture and so on.

replacement access and routine maintenance.
Safety cables should always be used.
Never mount in places where the fixture will be exposed to rain, high
humidity, extreme temperature changes or restricted ventilation.
Disconnect the power cord before replacing a fuse and always
replace with the same type fuse.
