4. CONNECTORS AND INITIAL
OPERATION

4.1 Digital DMX connector

The DMX512 IN and DMX512 OUT connectors are made in
accordance with the international DMX512 standard. 5-pole XLR
connectors are used, whereby controllers and DMX senders
feature female connectors, while receiver equipment such as
dimmer packs feature male connectors.
Fig. 4.1: Pin assignment of a 5-pin XLR connector
You should stick to the pin assignment shown in above
illustration even when two reserve pins 4 and 5 are used for a
second connection (a separate sender and receiver unit).
Often, 3-pole XLR connectors are also used for transmitting
digital control signals, since these connectors simplify using the
wiring already at the user’s disposal and are also less expensive
than 5-pole connectors. However, these connectors are
substandard and may not carry the “DMX512” insignia.

4.2 Analog connector

An 8-pole DIN connector is used as the input connection for an
analog control signal (0-10 V).

4.3 EEP (eprom check)

An eprom (Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory) is an
electronic device that contains programs or data needed to
operate a piece of equipment. Once you “burn” data onto an
eprom, it can’t get lost, even when you power down your
equipment.
During the power-up procedure of your LD6230, the eprom is
checked, that is, the LD6230 looks for false values (plausibility
control). If irregularities occur during the eprom initialisation,
factory default values are loaded.

4.4 Phase allocation

The LEDs L1, L2 and L3 (
refers to channels 1 and 2, L2 refers to channels 3 and 4, and L3
refers to channels 5 and 6. The LEDs show if correct voltage is
applied to your EUROLIGHT LD6230. If the voltage is not correct
(i.e. too high or too low), the corresponding LED(s) begin to blink.
Since the dimmer’s circuitry is powered by all three phases, the
dimmer remains functioning even if two out of three phases
malfunction. However, to guarantee trouble-free operation,
always attempt to correct phase problems as soon as they are
discovered.
