• Brown = live
• The IQ-MX80 must be earthed to ensure safety and
correct operation of the touch pads.
If sound activated operation is required, connect a sound
signal, either 0dBm from the line-level output of a mixer, or the
speaker output from an amplifier, to the sound input jack.
Great care should be taken not to connect the sound input to
the DMX-output socket, as this may destroy the internal
electronics (the DMX line-driver)
Connect the DMX output from the IQ-MX80 to the DMX input
of the nearest lantern. The DMX output socket is a 3-pin XLR. Pin
connections are as follows:
Pin 1 = ground
Pin 2 = Data +
Pin 3 = Data −
On a 3-pin XLR, Pin 3 is the one in the middle.
Refer to the "externally controlled" section of the lantern user
guide for further information on connection.

Portable Appliance Testing

The IQ-MX80 should be checked for Electrical Safety annually,

test (at 500V or 1000V) should be carried out between live and
earth, and an earth bonding test between the case and the earth
connection (at 6A or 10A). Insulation resistance should be
greater than 10MW and earth bonding resistance less than
0.5W. A high voltage test may also be carried out between the
