C O N N E C T I O N S
AC CONNECTION
The Obsidian Control Systems NETRON EN6 IP is rated 100-240V. Do not connect it to power
outside this range. Damage resulting from incorrect connection is not covered under warranty.
North America: A cable with a NEMA 15-5P plug is provided for use with the EN12i in the USA and
Canada. This approved cable must be used in North America.
Rest of the world: The provided cable is not fitted with a country-specific plug. Install only a plug that
meets local and or national electrical codes and is suitable for the country's specific requirements.
A 3-prong grounded-type (earthed type) plug must be installed following the plug
manufacturer's instructions.
DMX CONNECTION:
All DMX Output connections are 5pin female XLR; the pin-out on all sockets is pin 1 to shield, pin 2 to
cold (-), and pin 3 to hot (+). Pins 4 and 5 are not used.
Carefully connect DMX cables to the respective ports.
To prevent damaging the DMX ports, provide strain relief and support. Avoid connecting FOH Snakes
to the ports directly.
ETHERNET DATA CONNECTIONS
The Ethernet cable is connected on the back of the gateway into the port labeled A or B. Devices can
be daisy chained, but it is recommended not to exceed 10 Netron devices in one chain. Because these
devices use locking RJ45 connectors, and the use of locking RJ45 ethernet cables is recommended,
any RJ45 connector is suitable..
The Ethernet connection is also used to connect a computer to the Netron device for remote
configuration via a web browser. To access the web interface, simply enter the IP address shown in
the display in any web browser connected to the device. Information about the web access can be
found in the manual.
