3. DMX lighting console connection
NOTE: DMX cable should be bought additionally for connecting the MixPanel to a DMX lighting console.
·The connection between the light fixture and a DMX lighting console should use 5-pin XLR shielded cable and make sure its diameter is less than 0.3mm.
XLR plug/ socket and the wire should be connected as pictured above.
·Pin 1, Pin 2, Pin 3 for connecting DMX signals, Pin 4, Pin 5 are unassigned.
NOTE: When connecting with socket, make sure the internal pins are not in contact with the inner case. The fixture can match the DMX 512(1990) control signal.
·Adapting 5-pin and 3-pin XLR plug/socket conversion is a compatible option. The optional DMX cable comes as a 5-pin XLR plug. If you use the 3-pin XLR plug,
kindly follow below instruction.

Pin 1:GND(SCREEN)
Pin 2:Signal(-)
Pin 3:Signal(+)
Pin 4:N/C
Pin 5:N/C
4. DMX-In Port
In DMX mode, make sure the last light is the only light with cable connected to DMX output. There is a resistance
about 120 (OHM) between the second pin and third pin of this plug (as below photo). Make sure this plug is installed
into the output of last fixture which can avoid noise and reflection phenomenon caused by DMX signal in the
transmitting process.
5. DMX Start Address Setting
When using a DMX console to control the fixture, each one must be set to its own DMX address, to receive the dimmer signal and response correctly. The fixture
has total 2 DMX modes, accept DMX512 national standard signal.
Mode 1: Total 12 channels, set the first fixture's DMX start address to 001, 013 for the second one displays, 025 for the third one and so on.
