QuickStart Guide

3. Connecting to the DMX512 Network

Note: Refer to Figure 2 for DMX512 Input and Output/Thru connections.
Basic DMX512 installation consists of connecting multiple PLCYC1 MKII LED Luminaires together (up to 30
luminaires) in "daisy-chain" fashion. A cable runs from the control console (or DMX512 control source) to the DMX
connector on the first PLCYC1 MKII LED Luminaire. Another cable runs from the other DMX connector on the first
unit to a DMX connector on the next PLCYC1 MKII LED Luminaire (or DMX512 device to be controlled)
Note: For more information on DMX512 networking and systems, refer to
page 2. For PLCYC1 MKII LED Luminaire DMX Mapping, refer to the product user's manual
