    DMX Hardware The FL5200 is equipped with two RJ45 female connectors, an XLR5 female connector and an XLR5 male connector. These connectors are provided such that they can be placed in a DMX daisy chain with DMX input and output ports.
  • Page 12: Dmx Wiring Configurations

    It is always recommended to terminate DMX daisy chains with a resistor of the same characteristic impedance as the cable (typically 100-120 Ohms). To terminate a DMX daisy chain, place the resistor across Data pin (+) and Data pin (-), which are specified in Table 3. FiberLamp Installation Recommendations Page 12 of 19...
  • Page 13: Dmx Addressing

    The FL5200 is controlled with 8 DMX channels and must be assigned to 8 DMX addresses. The DIP-switch on the side of the FL5200 defines the first DMX address of the sequence of 8 DMX addresses. The 7 remaining addresses are automatically assigned to the 7 addresses that succeed the address set on the DIP-switch.
  • Page 14: Dmx Controls

    Channels 1-6, in the sequence of 8 shown in Table 5, are channels that control the light output of the FL5200. As DMX controls operate on an incremental number scale from values of 0 to 255, a DMX value of 0 corresponds to no light and a DMX value of 255 corresponds to maximum light output.
  • Page 15: Master/Satellite Operation

    Master/Slave Operation The FL5200 is able to act as a DMX Slave or a Master on the DMX line, depending on the settings declared using the software. Each FL5200 is preprogrammed to DMX Slave mode as a factory default setting.
  • Page 16: Installation Recommendations

    Install the FL5200 in a location free from dust and debris, as the fan will pull in any dust and debris within a close proximity. Excessive dust and debris build up within and around the FL5200 will decrease the performance of the thermal management system, resulting in a shortened lifetime of the LED light source.
