3-pin vs. 5-pin
Some manufacturers use 5-pin XLR connectors for DMX trans-
mission. Don't worry! The two are still compatible. Adapters are
available on the internet and from lighting retailers. If you want
to build your own, here are the proper connections:

Master/Slave Mode
The LED 54AW also has a Master/Slave mode. In this mode you
can set the first fixture in the line to act as the master control-
ler – and up to 32 other fixtures can be connected and will mir-
ror the operation of the first. In this configuration, you do not
need a DMX controller.
