DMX Cables

Shielded twisted-pair cables with 3-pin/5-pin XLR connectors must be used for reliable DMX connection.
You can purchase DMX cables directly from your Highlite International dealer or make your own cables.
If you use 3-pin XLR audio cables for DMX data transmission, this may lead to signal degradation and
unreliable operation of the DMX network.
When you make your own DMX cables, make sure that you connect the pins and wires correctly as
shown in Fig. 06.

DMX Linking

To connect multiple devices on one DMX data link, follow the steps below:
Use a 3-pin/5-pin DMX cable to connect the DMX OUT connector of the lighting controller to the
DMX IN connector of the first device.
02) Connect the first device's DMX OUT connector to the second device's DMX IN connector with a
3-pin/5-pin DMX cable.
03) Repeat step 2 to connect all devices in a daisy-chain as shown in Fig. 07.
04) Connect a DMX terminator (120 Ω resistor) to the DMX OUT connector of the last device on the data
link.
