Some functions require the LightCorder to be connected to a Windows
95/98/ME/2000/XP PC.
The LightCorder connects to the computer through a COM port using the included
9-pin serial cable.
The cable connections are shown below, to right. If your computer has a 25-pin
serial output, you will need a 9-pin male to 25-pin cable as shown below, to left.

DMX out
The LightCorder connects to the DMX data link just like a controller. The XLR
socket is wired pin 1 to ground, pin 2 to signal cold (-), and pin 3 to signal hot (+).
Connect the LightCorder's DMX output to the DMX input of the first fixture. Or
simply disconnect the link from the controller output and connect it to the
LightCorder.
DMX in
To read and record DMX data, connect the output of the controller or other
transmitting device to the LightCorder's DMX input. Note that the LightCorder is
serial device: DMX input passes through to the DMX output.
The DMX input provides 120 ohm link termination.
