DMX SET UP

Power Supply: The ADJ Crazy Pocket 8 contains a electronic voltage switch, which will auto sense the
voltage when it is plugged into the power source. With this switch there is no need to worry about the correct
power voltage, this unit can be plugged in anywhere.
DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal protocol used by most lighting and controller
manufactures as a form of communication between intelligent fixtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends
DMX data instructions from the controller to the fixture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from fixture
to fixture via the DATA "IN" and DATA "OUT" XLR terminals located on all DMX fixtures (most controllers only
have a DATA "OUT" terminal).
DMX Linking: DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of different manufactures to be linked
together and operate from a single controller, as long as all fixtures and the controller are DMX compliant. To
ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path
possible. The order in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the DMX addressing. For
example; a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at
the end, or anywhere in the middle. Therefore, the first fixture controlled by the controller could be the last
fixture in the chain. When a fixture is assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA
assigned to address 1 to that unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.
Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX and Master/Slave Operation): The
Crazy Pocket 8 can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The Crazy Pocket 8 has 4 DMX
Channel Modes. The DMX address is set electronically using the controls on the front
panel of the unit. Your unit and your DMX controller require a approved DMX-512 110
Ohm Data cable for data input and data output (Figure 1). We recommend Accu-Cable
DMX cables. If you are making your own cables, be sure to use standard 110-120 Ohm
shielded cable (This cable may be purchased at almost all professional sound and
Figure 1
lighting stores). Your cables should be made with a male and female XLR connector on
either end of the cable. Also remember that DMX cable must be daisy chained and cannot be split.
