Setting up a DMX Serial Data Link
1. Connect the (male) 3 pin connector side of
the DMX cable to the output (female) 3 pin
connector of the controller.
2. Connect the end of the cable coming from
the controller which will have a (female) 3
pin connector to the input connector of the
next product consisting of a (male) 3 pin
connector.
3. Then, proceed to connect from the output as
stated above to the input of the following
product and so on.

Master/Slave Product Linking

1. Connect the (male) 3 pin connector side of
the DMX cable to the output (female) 3 pin
connector of the first product.
2. Connect the end of the cable coming from the first product which will have a (female) 3
pin connector to the input connector of the next product consisting of a (male) 3 pin
connector. Then, proceed to connect from the output as stated above to the input of the
following product and so on.
Often, the setup for Master-Slave
and Standalone operation requires
that the first product in the chain be
initialized for this purpose via DIP
switches. Secondarily, the
products that follow may also
require a slave setting. Please
consult the "Operating Instructions"
section in this manual for complete
instructions for this type of setup
and configuration.
